Before you hire in Sterling Heights
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Sterling Heights was built around 1977. 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 1977 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 Sterling Heights building department before work starts.
