Before you hire in ST Clair Shores
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in ST Clair Shores was built around 1957. 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
63% 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 ST Clair Shores building department before work starts.
How to compare basement insulation quotes
- Ask how they checked for moisture and what they recommend if it is present.
- Compare materials: foam board, spray foam, or framed walls.
- Ask whether the rim joist is included.
- Confirm how foam will be covered to meet code in finished space.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and ask for proof of insurance.
