The RBQ certificate becomes mandatory on October 1, 2027. Until then, an inspector without a certificate works legally: they are listed, and the certificate does not change the order.

How this directory works

  • Ernest takes no commission. The ranking depends on no payment: only on proximity, then on an order drawn at random every day.
  • Listings come from the inspectors themselves, who sign up for free, or from their public website. I check the RBQ certificate and associations before showing them.
  • Ernest belongs to Lumos, software used by some inspectors: they carry a badge, with no effect on the order.
  • I only show the city, never the address. Every inspector can correct or remove their listing at any time.
