Facade renovation & cleaning à Ixelles
Cleaning, repointing, water repellent and facade render. In Ixelles we are mainly called for two things: the zinc work on the old grand town houses — dormers, valleys, domes, junctions against the neighbouring facade — and the flat roofs of post-war blocks, where it is the managing agent who decides and the paperwork takes longer than the job.

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.
Around the ponds and in the Louise district is the most carefully built stock in the city: grand town houses from the late 19th century, Art Nouveau, natural slate, zinc dormers and a great deal of detail work. Further out, the 1960s apartment blocks and their flat roofs dominate. Two worlds, two techniques.

Ixelles porte le code postal 1050 et se situe in the Brussels-Capital Region. Notre équipe part de Grimbergen, à 12 km : nous y planifions la rénovation de façade en même temps que les chantiers de Brussels, Uccle et Forest, pour qu’un déplacement serve plusieurs toitures.

Common questions
Pour un devis, la visite à Ixelles se fixe en général sous quelques jours ouvrés. Nous partons de Grimbergen, à 12 km, et nous groupons nos visites par secteur : si un chantier tourne déjà cette semaine à Brussels ou Uccle, 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.
