Local QC Scope Details & Technical Standards

General contractors carry the full scope risk: self-performed work, subtrade buyout, general requirements, bonding, insurance, site logistics and the 10% statutory holdback. We break drawings down division by division, check architectural against structural and MEP sheets, separate GST/HST/PST/QST correctly, and calibrate labour to the province and city of your project.

Provincial Building Code: Construction Code of Québec (Code de construction du Québec), Chapter I – Building
Trade Standards: CCDC 2 stipulated price contract · CIQS elemental cost format · National Master Specification (MasterFormat) · Provincial construction lien / prompt payment acts
Permit Authority: Municipal permits are issued by each city (for example the Ville de Montréal borough offices). Contractors must hold a Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ) licence, and most construction labour falls under Commission de la construction du Québec (CCQ) collective agreements and trade rates.
Labour Demarcation: CCQ sector agreements (residential, ICI, civil engineering and roads, industrial) set wage rates, trade demarcation and crew ratios — an estimate that ignores the CCQ sector is wrong before it is priced.
