Renovation, Repair and Painting Program: Property Managers

Homes and other buildings built before 1978 are likely to contain lead-based paint. Renovation, repair or painting work done in those facilities could release hazardous lead dust which can be harmful to you and your residents.

EPA's Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) Rule provides important protections for you and your facility, and also requires that you take certain actions to protect your residents and your business.

How can property managers comply with the RRP Rule?

• Do you or your employees conduct RRP activities in a pre-1978 residential building?
  • If yes, then you must become a Lead-Safe Certified Firm.
  • If no, then hire only a Lead-Safe Certified firm for building maintenance, repair, or painting activities that could disturb lead-based paint. Find a Lead-Safe Certified Firm.
