Before you hire in Taylor
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Taylor 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
43% 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 Taylor building department before work starts.
How to compare bowing wall repair quotes
- Consider an independent structural engineer evaluation before choosing a method.
- Ask each contractor to record the current wall deflection in the quote.
- Compare quotes that use the same method, or ask why each recommends a different one.
- Verify the Residential Builder license on the LARA lookup and ask for insurance certificates.
- Confirm who pulls the permit and whether engineering is included.
