HKC Construction is Now RBQ Licensed: Elevating Construction Standards in Quebec
We are proud to announce that HKC Construction has successfully obtained its official license from the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ). This significant milestone enables us to legally perform all types of construction and renovation work throughout Quebec province, while providing our clients with the highest level of protection and service quality.
Understanding the RBQ Certification and Its Importance
The RBQ (Régie du bâtiment du Québec) serves as Quebec's construction industry watchdog, established to ensure public safety and professional standards across all construction sectors. In Quebec, unlike some other provinces, having an RBQ license isn't optional for contractors—it's mandatory by law for anyone performing construction work, including renovations.
The Rigorous Path to Certification
Obtaining our RBQ license was no simple task. Our team underwent a comprehensive evaluation process that tested our:
Technical knowledge of Quebec's Construction Code and safety standards
Administrative and management capabilities
Financial stability and business integrity
Understanding of site safety protocols and risk management
Expertise in specific construction domains
This demanding certification process ensures that only qualified professionals can perform construction work in Quebec, protecting consumers and maintaining high industry standards.
