  • Boring under pavement instead of open cutting
  • Street or sidewalk work at the connection point

Before you hire in Mount Clemens

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Mount Clemens was built around 1955. 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

62% 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 Mount Clemens building department before work starts.
