Detroit homes, up close

Michigan licenses electrical, plumbing and mechanical contractors through its Bureau of Construction Codes. The Great Lakes Water Authority draws water from the Detroit River and Lake Huron.

Residential permits are estimated to take about five days to review. Older kitchens often have tight spaces and older outlets, which can limit which replacement appliances fit.

Fridges and freezers in unheated garages can stop cooling properly in deep cold. Dryer vents can also freeze shut with lint and condensation. Building permits are filed online with the Buildings, Safety Engineering and Environmental Department.

Who handles what in Detroit

Gas appliances in Detroit run on service from DTE Energy, and electric ones from DTE Energy. If a gas range or dryer smells of gas, leave and call the utility from outside. Appliance repair itself is not a state-licensed trade in Michigan, but gas and plumbing hookups fall under licensed trades.

What usually goes wrong

You may want a appliance repair company if you notice any of these:

  • Dishwasher leaves standing water
  • Burner won't light or oven heats unevenly
  • Fridge not cooling or freezer frosting over

A little prep helps

If water is involved, shut off the supply valve behind the unit and keep towels nearby.

How the connection works

  1. Call or use the form and describe the problem.
  2. Your details go to a appliance repair company with availability in your part of Detroit.
  3. They confirm timing, price and any fees with you directly.

Common questions

My oven temperature seems off. Can it be calibrated?

Many ovens let you adjust the temperature offset in the settings. If it is far off or uneven, the temperature sensor or bake element may need replacing.

Do you cover Jefferson-Chalmers and Midtown?

Yes, as long as a pro is free. Detroit ZIP codes 48201, 48202, 48203, 48204, 48205 and others are in range, and that includes Jefferson-Chalmers, Corktown, Midtown and Boston-Edison.

Why is my dryer taking so long?

A clogged lint screen or vent is the usual cause, and it is also a fire risk. Clean the screen, check that the outside vent flap opens, and have the duct cleaned if it stays slow.

Is my microwave safe to repair?

Microwaves store high voltage even when unplugged, so internal repairs are a job for a trained tech. Many over-the-range models are worth fixing; small countertop units often are not.

If you are not sure which trade fits your problem, call anyway and describe it. We will tell you if it sounds like a job for someone else.
