NP Line Design is certified under the EPA's Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule for lead-safe work practices. This federal certification is required for any renovation disturbing more than 6 square feet of paint in homes, childcare facilities, or schools built before 1978. Los Angeles has over 1 million pre-1978 homes, making RRP certification essential for any contractor performing renovation work in the city.
Lead paint was banned in 1978, but it remains in millions of homes. When disturbed during renovation, lead dust poses serious health risks, especially to children and pregnant women. RRP-certified contractors follow specific containment, cleanup, and verification procedures mandated by the EPA. Non-certified contractors who disturb lead paint face fines up to $37,500 per day per violation. Homeowners should always verify RRP certification when renovating pre-1978 properties.

Lead-Safe Practices

Yes. NP Line Design is EPA RRP Lead-Safe Certified for renovation work in pre-1978 homes. Our trained renovators follow all required containment, cleaning, and verification procedures.
RRP certification is required for any renovation disturbing more than 6 square feet of painted surface in homes built before 1978. This applies to kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, window replacements, and any work that breaks painted surfaces.
Lead-safe practices include containing the work area with plastic sheeting, using HEPA-filtered vacuums, wet-sanding instead of dry-sanding, and passing a post-work cleaning verification test before removing containment.
Homes built before 1978 may contain lead paint. An EPA-certified lead inspector can test paint samples, or NP Line Design can perform an XRF (X-ray fluorescence) test during our initial assessment.

“CSLB license verification is non-negotiable before signing any construction contract in California. Go to CSLB.ca.gov, search by license number, and verify: the license is current and active, the license type matches the scope of work (B-General, C-specialty trade), the insurance and bonding are current, and there are no disciplinary actions. Takes 5 minutes. Do it every time.”
Request a payment bond on any project over $50,000. A payment bond ensures that subcontractors and material suppliers are paid even if the general contractor defaults. Without a payment bond, you can be required to pay twice for the same work if the GC fails to pay their subs. Payment bonds cost 1–2% of the contract amount — the cheapest insurance available.
