Before you hire in Otter Lake
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Otter Lake was built around 1938. 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
72% 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 Otter Lake building department before work starts.
How to compare soundproofing quotes
- Ask what noise they expect to reduce and what assembly they recommend.
- Ask how they will seal outlets, doors and ducts.
