Builders: LBP vs CB vs MB

zillion

LBP: licensed building practitioner
CB: certified builders
MB: master builders
I dunno anything about construction but it'd be glad if anyone could tell me which one's better when it comes to repairing the house? I see mostly Master Builders on yellow pages. Thanks in advance.

CB和MB一般都会有LBP，他们是木工类的LBP。而有LBP的不一定是CB或者MB。因为LBP不单是给木工的，还有给设计师，水工，瓦顶，砌砖等其他工种。LBP是个类似上岗证的东西，从今年3月1号起，与建房有关的5个还是6个工种，政府要求他们必须持有LBP。 换句话说，LBP和CB还有MB，没有任何可比性。

谢谢你的答复。他们三个有等级之分吗？
那个对我们比较有利？

没有可比性。哪来的等级之分呢。LBP是牌照， MB和CB是2个协会的会员。我认识的木工根本不是MB或CB，但是因为政府要求，所以去考了个LBP的木工牌照，做活不比MB或CB的会员差

MB和CB 就好象CA和CPA，都差不多

想问问看，之前给我家做检查的Builder是MBOINZ，我们很不满意他的服务，可以不可以向BOINZ投诉他，怀疑他的资格？

MBOINZ is 什么？
pls pm me the builder so i can avoid him. Thanks in advance.
投诉? i think u could get relevant information from LBP/CB/MB/Department of building and housing official website for such information since i've been browsing their websites trying to find a reliable builder.
