Frequently asked questions

Accreditation, building health and verification: essential answers

These answers distinguish RSBQ scope, public duties, external certifications and normal limits of a building investigation.

Accreditation and external credentials

RSBQ accreditation applies to the displayed matrix and scope. An RBQ licence, IICRC certification or laboratory accreditation field remains a separate title verified with its issuer.

  • Visible scope
  • Unique number
  • Limited validity
  • External titles kept separate

Number lookup

The registry is not an open directory. A complete RSBQ number or RBQ number matching an authorized record is required to display a company.

  • No name search
  • No exportable list
  • Current status
  • No result without a non-compliance judgment

Measurement and analysis

Analysis is triggered by a question and interpreted in context. A point result does not guarantee the absence of concealed, intermittent or seasonal contamination.

  • Suitable method
  • Checked instrument
  • Competent laboratory
  • Written limitations
