Before you hire in Livonia
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Livonia was built around 1964. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.
Older plumbing and sewer lines
41% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.
Permits: check with the Livonia building department before work starts.
How to compare closing attorney quotes
- Ask whether the fee is flat and whether closing attendance is included.
- Ask how often the attorney handles residential closings in your county.
- Confirm the attorney will review the title commitment, not only the contract.
- Get the scope and fee in writing before the attorney starts.
- Check the attorney in the State Bar of Michigan member directory.
