Before you hire in Southfield

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Southfield was built around 1969. 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.

Mid-century and newer systems

Most homes here date from 1969 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.

Permits: check with the Southfield building department before work starts.

Thermal Imaging Inspection in Southfield: FAQ

No. It shows surface temperature, which can reveal missing insulation, air leaks or moisture behind the surface.
During the heating season, when inside and outside temperatures differ the most.
Cost depends on building size, whether it is paired with a blower door test, how detailed the image report is, the season and temperature difference needed, and whether it is part of a full energy audit. Thermal imaging can show damp areas but cannot confirm mold.
