Before you hire in Marysville

Mid-century and newer systems

Most homes here date from 1978 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.

Michigan basements

Freeze-thaw cycles and clay soils make foundation cracks and wet basements common across Metro Detroit. Foundation and sump pump checks belong on every spring list.

Permits: check with the Marysville building department before work starts.

Trenching in Marysville: FAQ

MIOSHA requires sloping, benching, shoring or a trench box for trenches deeper than 5 feet, and a competent person may require protection in shallower trenches in poor soil.
Yes. Michigan law applies to any excavation, and gas and electric service lines can be shallow. Notify MISS DIG 811 at least three business days ahead.
It can if the soil is dumped back loose. Compacting in layers, and topping with extra soil on lawns, reduces settling.

It depends on the scope. Ask the Marysville building department, and expect a licensed contractor to pull any permit the job needs.
