Before you hire in Melvindale
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Melvindale was built around 1950. 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
66% 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 Melvindale building department before work starts.
How to compare concrete driveway quotes
- Get base depth, slab thickness, reinforcement and joint spacing in writing.
- Ask whether the mix is air-entrained and what curing method is used.
- Confirm who pulls the approach or right-of-way permit and calls MISS DIG 811.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and ask for proof of insurance.
- Compare warranties on cracking, scaling and settlement, and what voids them.
