Homes in New Haven: what pros run into
Building permit applications are filed online, and paper applications are not accepted. Nor'easters bring heavy rain, wind and coastal flooding along the harbor.
Water from Lake Whitney is treated at the Whitney Water Purification Facility. Many older doors have been rehung or painted over the years, so a lock that sticks may need the door adjusted, not just the cylinder.
Humidity can make doors swell in summer, so a deadbolt that worked fine in spring may stick in July. The Regional Water Authority supplies New Haven, drawing on Lake Whitney and Lake Gaillard among other sources.
Permits, licenses and your utility
Ask the locksmith for ID, the company name and a written price before any work begins. A reputable locksmith will give a price range on the phone and explain anything that could change it before starting. If the number jumps once they arrive, you can say no.
