Licences pour Pavage au Québec

Paving is not a specifically licensed trade in Quebec. However, contractors performing paving as part of construction work must hold the appropriate RBQ licence. Building permits are generally not required for residential driveways and walkways, but municipal approval may be needed for driveway widening or changes to the curb cut. Municipal bylaws govern driveway dimensions and surface requirements.

Ask for the contractor's RBQ licence number if performing construction work. Get a detailed written quote including surface preparation.

(1) Door-to-door sales offering leftover asphalt at a steep discount - this is a common paving scam in Ontario (2) No written contract or refuses to specify asphalt thickness and base depth (3) Skips base preparation or applies asphalt directly on dirt or old crumbling surface (4) Cannot provide proof of liability insurance or references from recent jobs (5) Demands full payment before starting or asks for cash only

(1) What is the thickness of the asphalt and the depth of the granular base you will install? (2) Will you remove the existing surface, or are you paving over it? What are the trade-offs? (3) How will you handle drainage to direct water away from my home? (4) Do you carry liability insurance? Can I see a certificate? (5) What warranty do you offer on materials and workmanship?

Bien que cela ne soit pas exigé par la loi, il est fortement recommandé que les pavages détiennent une assurance responsabilité. Demandez une preuve de couverture avant d'embaucher.

Au Québec, la plupart des entrepreneurs qui exécutent des travaux de construction doivent détenir une licence de la RBQ (Régie du bâtiment du Québec). Vous pouvez vérifier la licence de tout entrepreneur dans le Registre des détenteurs de licence en ligne de la RBQ à rbq.gouv.qc.ca. Demandez toujours le numéro de licence et vérifiez-le avant d'embaucher.

Les prix types pour les pavages au Québec se situent entre Usually quoted per sq ft or project; hourly crew/equipment rates apply only to time-and-materials work. Surface area (sq ft), material choice (asphalt is the most affordable, interlock pavers the most expensive), thickness and base preparation, existing surface removal and disposal ($1-$3/sq ft), grading and drainage requirements, accessibility of the site, subgrade condition (clay soils require more base material), and project timing. Asphalt prices fluctuate with oil prices. A proper base of 8-12 inches of compacted granular material is essential for longevity and makes up a significant portion of the total cost.
