RenoMark verification: 3-step online process (Code attestation + document upload + Licensing Agreement); now annual
Created 2026-05-24
Claim: Verification is annual and runs through CHBA's online system at hub.chba.ca/renomark-vs. Three steps:
- Sign the Code of Conduct — attest to all 10 points (see RenoMark Code of Conduct — 10 points, verbatim (current as of 2026-05-24)).
- Upload documents — a contract template, a warranty template, and an in-force Certificate of Liability Insurance.
- Sign the RenoMark Licensing Agreement governing logo use.
Annual renewal requires an updated Certificate of Insurance; contract and warranty are not re-uploaded each year unless changed. CHBA holds the documents confidentially with access limited to "select CHBA staff."

Confidence: Verified.
Practical implications for renovator clients
- Total time to complete verification ≈ 20 minutes if contract, warranty, and certificate of insurance are ready.
- The gate is local HBA membership first — see WRHBA RenoMark: 16 verified renovators, mandatory for any WRHBA renovator-category member (verified 2026-05-24) for how WRHBA handles it.
- A contractor who says they are RenoMark but does not appear on renomark.ca has either lapsed, been removed, or never completed verification. See Rule: before trusting any RenoMark claim, verify the contractor on renomark.ca — directory presence is the only public proof.
