Facade renovation & cleaning à Forest
Cleaning, repointing, water repellent and facade render. In Forest every quotation starts with access.
14 km from our depot in Grimbergen
What that changes here
You do not touch a Brussels facade without permission: cornices, decorative render and facing stone often come under the municipal heritage regulations. We generally work from the scaffold already up for the roof, which greatly reduces the cost of the two jobs together.
Forest is built on a slope, and it shows on the roofs: tall houses from the 1920s and 1930s, a lot of Art Deco around the Altitude Cent, and a low, industrial part down towards the canal. The differences in level make scaffold access the first question on every job.
What we get called out for in Forest
In Forest every quotation starts with access. On the slope of the Altitude Cent the houses are tall and the front gardens narrow; putting up a scaffold there needs a road occupation permit and sometimes a parking ban. After that comes the ordinary work: box gutters, slates and 1930s dormers.
Forest porte le code postal 1190 et se situe in the Brussels-Capital Region. Notre équipe part de Grimbergen, à 14 km : nous y planifions la rénovation de façade en même temps que les chantiers de Uccle, Anderlecht et Ixelles, pour qu’un déplacement serve plusieurs toitures.

Common questions
Pour un devis, la visite à Forest se fixe en général sous quelques jours ouvrés. Nous partons de Grimbergen, à 14 km, et nous groupons nos visites par secteur : si un chantier tourne déjà cette semaine à Uccle ou Anderlecht, cela peut aller plus vite. En cas de fuite active, nous venons d’abord bâcher et sécuriser ; la rénovation de façade n’est chiffrée qu’ensuite.
Cleaning and repointing are generally done without a permit. As soon as the colour or the appearance changes, a permit is often required in Flanders as in Brussels. We tell you which case you are in before the quotation.
A facade treatment carried out properly lasts fifteen to twenty years. West and south-west gables, which take the driving rain, age noticeably faster: it is common to redo them on their own between two full campaigns.
