Licensed General Contractors in Montreal

Work with Billdr-certified, licensed general contractors

Finding a licensed and insured general contractor with a track record of high-quality work is essential to the success of your renovation project. We have a rigorous process to vet and certify every general contractor in our professional network. 

To become certified, general contractors must hold a valid Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ) license, valid civil liability insurance of $2,000,000 or more, a minimum of two years of relevant experience, and supply references from former customers.

Beyond the paperwork, the Billdr team meets with each contractor on active job sites to observe the way they work and make sure they are a good fit for the Billdr network. As we get to know our partners, we build strong trust relationships.

Home renovation pricing

How much does it cost to renovate a house in Montreal?

The price of your renovation depends on the scope of the project. Our Renovation Experts will help you define your project scope and send you a detailed budget estimate before you meet with general contractors. 

Financial assistance program for a heritage building

If your property is designated of heritage interest, or registered in a protected territory, you could benefit from financial assistance for your renovation project.

The amount awarded is approximately 30% of the work's cost, to a maximum of $25,000.

Your renovation work must correspond to certain categories in order to receive a subsidy. In general, assistance is granted for exterior work (doors, windows, woodwork) necessary for the restoration, energy-saving measures, and even work to bring a building up to standards.

Kitchen renovation pricing

The costs of a kitchen renovation in Montreal are generally between $150 and $500 per square foot and can take between two to four weeks.

If your renovations do not involve major structural work (e.g. demolition of a load-bearing wall to create an open space) or displacement of plumbing and gas pipes, prices will be lower. When you choose premium materials the costs will go up.
