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.

Look at the pipe where water enters your home. Lead is dull gray and soft; scratching it shows shiny silver, and a magnet will not stick.
Detroit and many suburbs have programs. Contact your water utility to see if and when your address is scheduled.
Use a filter certified for lead, run cold water before drinking, and use cold water for cooking. See the EPA guidance linked below.
