  • 120-volt versus 240-volt circuits and wire size
  • Panel capacity and whether a subpanel or upgrade is needed
  • Required AFCI or GFCI breakers
  • Runs to a detached garage or outbuilding, including trenching
  • Number of circuits added in one visit
  • The age of the home: the typical Southgate home was built around 1963, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Southgate

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Southgate was built around 1963. 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

45% 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 Southgate building department before work starts.

  • Confirm wire size, breaker type and any AFCI or GFCI protection in writing.
  • Confirm who pulls the permit and whether wall patching is included.
  • Check the license on the LARA lookup and compare warranties.
