  • Number of alarms and levels in the home
  • Replacing existing hardwired units versus adding new locations
  • Hardwired interconnect versus wireless interconnect
  • Smoke only versus combination smoke and CO alarms
  • Plaster ceilings and attic access for new wiring
  • Whether the work is part of a larger permitted renovation
  • The age of the home: the typical Northville home was built around 1968, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Northville

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Northville was built around 1968. 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

23% 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 Northville building department before work starts.
