On May 30th, 2013 – Leah underwent all the necessary training and completed the EPA Certified Renovator course at the CONNOR Institute in Baltimore, MD.
Leah joins the only other member of the Design Build Remodeling Group team – our General Manager, Todd Swanson – as a Certified Lead Renovator! Congratulations again on this accomplishment, Leah!
Course Description:
This full-day EPA accredited course will lead to the EPA Certified Renovator discipline certification, which will be valid for five years from the date of successful completion of the course. The audience for this course includes renovators, remodelers, painters, maintenance personnel, and any other workers removing or modifying painted surfaces in pre-1978 housing and in pre-1978 child-occupied facilities. Students will learn how to comply with the EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule and the HUD Lead Safe Housing Rule. Students will also learn how to work safely with lead-based paint, and how to perform lead-safe work practices safely and effectively during renovation, repair and painting projects.
