Before you hire in Milford
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Milford was built around 1973. 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.
Pre-war construction
17% of homes predate 1940. Expect plaster walls, balloon framing and possible asbestos in old pipe wrap or floor tile; test before demolition with a licensed asbestos contractor.
Permits: check with the Milford building department before work starts.
