What Makes Saginaw and Bay City Different
Saginaw and Bay City sit on flat, low land along the Saginaw River, which flows north into Saginaw Bay on Lake Huron. Several rivers join near Saginaw, so heavy rain and spring melt can raise the water fast. Homes on low ground near the rivers and the bay should check their flood risk, because a standard homeowners policy does not cover flooding.
In May 2020 two dams failed upstream on the Tittabawassee River after heavy rain, and floodwater reached Midland and communities downstream. Strong winds off the bay can also push water onto low shoreline streets near Bay City.
Winters are cold, and pipes in exterior walls and crawlspaces freeze and split. The land is flat and the groundwater is high in many areas, so basements take on water in wet springs. A sump pump with a battery backup prevents a lot of damage. Many older homes in both cities were built before 1978, so test for lead paint and asbestos before any demolition.

Checking a License in Saginaw and Bay City
Michigan licenses residential builders and maintenance and alteration contractors through the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs. Ask for the license number and look it up with the state before you sign. Michigan has no separate mold license, so ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage and mold remediation, and ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance. If the home was built before 1978, ask whether the crew is certified for lead safe renovation.
