Unboarded loft, roof room or timber-framed attic in La Louvière (7100): our team works on the joists, dismantles furniture too large for the hatch and sorts everything by channel. The price is fixed before the job, and the clearance can be free if your items have value.
Attic clearance in La Louvière: our approach
In La Louvière, the brick workers' houses and mining estates, such as Bois-du-Luc in Houdeng-Aimeries, have modest lofts under gabled roofs, often reached by a hatch above the stairs. Generations have stored suitcases, furniture, clothes and family items there. In the centre, the shopkeepers' houses sometimes have an attic that served as the shop's stockroom, with old stock and boxes of records. In the more recent housing estates of Strépy-Bracquegnies or Maurage, the attic is rather an unboarded loft above the bedrooms, reached by a pull-down ladder. We clear the attic on its own, leaving the lived-in rooms untouched, and leave it swept.
- Unboarded loft: walking on the joists, never on the ceiling.
- Roof room: furniture dismantled to pass under the slopes.
- Archive attic: photos, letters and papers set aside for you.

Attic clearance in La Louvière: access, carrying down and removal
In an estate house, the attic is cleared through a narrow hatch: one person in the loft, one on the landing, one on the ground floor, and items come down one by one in closed boxes. Furniture assembled under the roof is dismantled on site. Under these old roofs we watch for fibre-cement sheets or other suspect old materials, which are pointed out and left in place, and for birds' nests or droppings, which are collected with masks after dampening. In a shopkeeper's house in the centre, stock still in good condition can have reuse value that lowers the price or even makes the clearance free. Parking the truck requires a road-occupation permit from the City of La Louvière, with no-parking signs: we submit the request for you. Hygea's recycling parks take private residents; our clearances follow a different route, to the social economy and suitable recycling channels.
La Louvière attic clearance: Laetare, Haine-Saint-Pierre and Boussoit
During Laetare, at mid-Lent, the centre is in festive mode and traffic is heavily disrupted: we do not schedule clearances around Place Mansart and Rue Albert Ier at that time. The rest of the year, flats above shops are cleared in agreement with the business on the ground floor.
In Haine-Saint-Pierre, Haine-Saint-Paul and Saint-Vaast, the long rows of brick workers' houses combine a cellar, a low attic and a narrow back garden. With little room to sort outside, we sort indoors as things come down and load straight away. In Houdeng-Aimeries, the listed façades of the Bois-du-Luc mining village mean protecting door frames and thresholds. Towards Strépy-Bracquegnies, Maurage or Boussoit, detached houses with a garage offer more space: the attic and garage can be cleared on the same day, with a single truck space.
