Who is on your vendor list, and are they clear?

Send us your current vendor list. We check each one against the public registries and send you a one-page report: who’s clear, who isn’t, and what the gaps mean for the building.

Free. You keep the report. We never contact your contractors unless you ask.

Two facts before you send it

Section 258 of the Workers Compensation Act

The person the work is done for can be held liable for a contractor’s unpaid WorkSafeBC assessment. A clause in your contract doesn’t move that onto the contractor. The first bill you see may be the assessment. The next cost is the time it takes to argue about it. WorkSafeBC explains it here.

A letter addressed to the contractor doesn’t cover you

A clearance letter addressed to the contractor doesn’t cover you. So we pull yours in your name, as the party paying for the work. The usual practice is one letter before the work starts and one before final payment.

When did you last check the people on your list? That is the question this report answers.

Send your list

Registry results show on this page as soon as you send it. The full report is back within one business day.

What is in the report

BC Registries

Registered or not, active or not, and what kind of business. Live, from the Province’s own registry.

WorkSafeBC clearance, in your name

Pulled by a person through WorkSafeBC and addressed to you. Where you gave an account number, we start from it.

City business licence

Whether a licence is on record for the city where the work happens.

What we do with the list

We check it. We don’t call your contractors and we don’t tell anyone who sent it. We keep the business names on file so your report can be repeated, and nobody is told who sent them. Prontco also keeps the Verified list of trades that clear the same points, if you ever want to see who is already on it.

The report tells you what each gap means for the building. It doesn’t tell you who to keep. That is your decision.
