Ce qu'on observe sur les chantiers à Hainaut.
The province of Hainaut covers 3,786 km² in western Wallonia with 69 highly contrasting municipalities: large urban hubs in reconversion (Charleroi, Mons, La Louvière), medium-sized towns (Tournai, Mouscron), peri-urban developments. The new-build market is undergoing major restructuring after the gradual exit from mining and steel industries. Our experts work on single-family turnkey houses, new apartments in town centres and mixed-use urban redeployment programmes.
Recent assignment in Hainaut: new-house reception in Mons.
Single-family home of 142 m² delivered by a Hainaut developer in Mons (Cuesmes district). Our expert identified 31 reservations in 4 h on site, including a basement slab crack (former mining zone, insufficient PI study), several screed flatness defects and a non-compliance of the dual-flow ventilation.
The contradictory minutes enabled the owner to withhold €8,500 from the balance until full lifting of the reservations. All corrected within 10 weeks, with no litigation. See our Mons reception expert page →
« On the former mining zone of Cuesmes, the developer had played down the soil study. The expert identified the structural crack from the first visit and documented it to make it enforceable. €8,500 withheld, everything corrected in 10 weeks. »
