Before you hire in Pontiac

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Pontiac was built around 1961. 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

49% 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 Pontiac building department before work starts.
