Background
Founded in the early 1990s, the Quebec Association of Building Inspectors (AIBQ) is the not-for-profit regrouping the largest number of building inspectors in Québec.
Building inspections were first proposed in the early 1970s. This new service met the growing demand from buyers who wanted to know the true condition of the building in question and, more specifically, the condition of the building’s various systems and components.
Inspection of residential buildings is a unique and distinct discipline from the fields of construction, engineering, architecture, real estate appraisal and municipal inspection.
The Canadian Association of Home & Property Inspectors (CAPHI) was inspired by the structure and standards of inspection practiced by the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI). In 1987, CAPHI established its own standards of practice for building inspection in Canada. In Québec, the AIBQ joined CAPHI when it was founded in the early 1990s.
