While the homeowner may be performing the role of general contractor by hiring firms and organizing their work, the homeowner is not performing, offering or claiming to perform a renovation and therefore does not need to be a certified firm. The firms hired by the homeowner to perform renovation tasks are responsible for complying with all aspects of the RRP Rule that are applicable to their work, including firm certification.

However, all firms share liability for ensuring compliance with the RRP Rule.
