Why Choose A Local Licensed RBQ Contractor?
Don’t Take Chances with Your Renovation — Hire Local, Licensed, and Insured
When planning a home renovation in Quebec, one of the most important decisions you’ll make is who you hire to do the work. Choosing a licensed RBQ contractor who’s local to your area isn’t just smart — it’s critical for safety, legal compliance, and lasting quality.

What Is an RBQ License — and Why Does It Matter?
The RBQ (Régie du bâtiment du Québec) license is a legal requirement for contractors performing construction or renovation work in Quebec. It proves that your contractor:
-
Has passed required exams and meets provincial standards
-
Carries valid liability insurance
-
Operates legally under Quebec law
-
Can pull permits and offer peace of mind
Without an RBQ license, your renovation is at risk — and so is your home insurance.
Risks of Hiring Unlicensed or Out-of-Area Contractors
❌ No legal protection if something goes wrong
❌ May lack proper insurance — you could be liable for accidents
❌ Can't pull permits legally
❌ Difficult to reach after the job
❌ Potential fines or forced demolition if work doesn’t comply with code
