Habitation Plani-Conseil Inc — Design-build renovation in Montreal
Habitation Plani-Conseil Inc was founded in 2003 by Luc Gendron, an architectural technologist who built the company around the idea that planning, design, and construction should come from the same team. Based at 10120 Rancourt in Montreal (H2B 2N9), the firm carries RBQ licence 8337-1112-29 and holds active certifications from APCHQ, Réno Maître, and the Novoclimat energy-efficiency program. As of 2025, the company has been active for 22 years. Phone: 514-277-3217. Email: travaux@planiconseil.com.
The Novoclimat certification is worth understanding. It is a Quebec government program that sets measurable performance targets for airtightness, insulation levels, heat-recovery ventilation, and window specifications. A Novoclimat-certified contractor submits the renovation plans for review and must meet the post-construction blower-door test result required by the program. For clients interested in lower long-term heating costs or better resale value, having a certified contractor on the file avoids the extra coordination step of finding a separate energy auditor.

Why it’s on home.renovation.reviews
Few Montreal contractors run a genuine architecture bureau alongside the construction arm. Habitation Plani-Conseil’s structure means a client can bring one firm a renovation idea and receive drawings, permits, and finished work without passing the file between separate parties. The Réno Maître and Novoclimat credentials add accountability that standard RBQ-only contractors do not carry. 4.8 stars from 38 reviews.
