Licensing & insurance in Quebec
HVAC contractors in Quebec require an RBQ license, typically subcategory 15.2 (heating) and 15.4 (refrigeration), plus CCQ refrigeration mechanic certification.
Before any pro can quote on WiseTrades, our team telephones their insurer to confirm the policy is genuine and active, then validates identity documents independently. If you are hiring outside the platform, replicate that step yourself — the cost of one un-insured worksite injury wipes out a decade of contractor savings.
Before you book a hvac contractor across Gatineau, QC
- Ask whether the hvac contractor you are quoting carries WSIB or WCB clearance specifically (not just liability insurance) — worker-injury exposure can land on the homeowner without it.
- Confirm sub-trade arrangements: most Gatineau hvac contractor work involves at least one sub-trade, and the lead contractor's responsibility for sub-quality must be explicit.
- Negotiate retention on final payment (typically five-to-ten percent) held back until the post-handover punch-list closes.
