What does the verified artisan badge on Bricolat mean?

The verified badge is one of the most important trust signals on Bricolat. This guide explains what it actually guarantees, how it’s granted, and why it changes everything compared to an anonymous listing.

The verified badge signals a real identity check

Before earning this badge, a tradesperson must submit their national ID card (CIN), checked by the Bricolat team within 24 hours. It is not a simple box the tradesperson ticks themselves.

Why it’s more reassuring than an anonymous listing

On many platforms or groups, anyone can claim to be a tradesperson without any verification. The badge reduces this risk by making sure a real, identified person stands behind the profile.

What the badge does not replace

A verified badge confirms the tradesperson’s identity, not the quality of their work. Keep comparing quotes, customer reviews, and past projects before making your choice.

How to spot a verified profile

The badge appears directly on the tradesperson’s public profile, next to their name and rating. It’s visible straight from the results list, without opening each profile.

What this means for you as a client

Contacting a verified tradesperson reduces the risk of bad surprises, while still letting you freely compare several profiles before committing.
