House demolition and stripping

Accueil » House demolition and stripping

Do you have a renovation or extension of a house or building that requires demolition and clearing? “Degreasing” means demolishing only what is needed, that is, a specific part of the building.

The clearing has nothing to do with the excavation since it involves removing different parts of a building, while retaining its envelope.Concrete demolition in Gatineau

This practice is commonly used in the renovation of an old building classified as a historical monument. The clearing allows to preserve the original character of the frame. It is an art that requires precise qualifications.

 

Study of the nature of the soil

During demolition, the expert will establish a study of the composition of the soil, but also of the surrounding trees whose roots could damage the foundations. This is an essential step for the stability of the structure.

Diagnosis of foundations

Before partially clearing, a foundation expert analyzes the condition of the foundations and foundations so as not to touch the existing one and not destabilize the entire structure of the building that will remain in place.

 

A misstep or mishandling can result in the total and irremediable loss of the building. This is why only professionals who have the expertise of this type of work have the certifications to intervene.

 

When should it be cleared  ?

 

Different projects may lead to clearing or partial demolition :

 

  • Make a home extension
  • Build a new attached garage
  • Add one or more floors to a building
  • Build a basement or crawl space

  • The semi-deep foundation

It is a sole 2 to 5 meters deep below the ground.

 

  • The deep foundation

Questions sur la réparation de fondation à Gatineau

Faut-il quitter les lieux durant les travaux?

Non il n’est pas nécessaire de quitter lors des travaux. Bien qu’il soit possible qu’une tranchée profonde surlonge tout le périmètre de votre maison durant les réparations, nous avons des installations sécuritaires pour que vous puissiez rester à la maison. Des rampes d’accès sont installées afin de permettre au client d’entrer et sortir à leur guise.

Peut-on baisser le taux d’humidité dans un sous-sol en réparant la fondation?

L’imperméabilisation et la pose d’un drain français protègent en effet votre sous-sol de l’humidité. Si la ou une des sources d’humidité  provient d’une faille de votre mur de fondation, la réparer va contribuer à régler le problème.

Les membranes installées par VOPAA inc. ont des propriétés imperméables et pare-vapeur afin de garder un sous-sol bien au sec. Sachez qu’un taux élevé d’humidité contribue à la formation de moisissure qui peut causer des problèmes de santé importants.

 

Vous pouvez toujours vérifier d’autres éléments tels que la plomberie et les fenêtres qui peuvent également représenter la cause d’une forte présence d’humidité dans l’air.
