Braine-le-Comte pitfall to avoid

Mining subsoil and former quarries.

Central Hainaut retains a mining legacy (collieries, blue-stone quarries). Before any purchase, consult the Walloon mining cadastre and demand a G2 soil study attesting to the absence of cavity or unstable backfill. Several recent subdivisions have seen localised subsidence.

Témoignage acheteur
« We avoided future subsidence thanks to the G2 report required upfront. The builder reinforced foundations at no extra cost to us. »
