An attic to clear in Roeselare before the roofer arrives, before a sale or after the parents have moved out? We first set aside photos, letters and papers, then bring down trunks, furniture and boxes without damaging the stairwell. A few photos of the access are often enough for a free quote.
Attic clearance in Roeselare: our approach
In Roeselare, the typical West Flemish brick terraced house has an attic under a gabled roof, reached by a narrow stair or a hatch above the landing. These lofts have been used for decades to store what nobody wants to throw away: the previous generation's furniture, boxes of clothes, toys, Christmas decorations. In the centre, recent flats generally have no attic. In Rumbeke, Beveren and Oekene, detached houses have large lofts, sometimes converted into roof rooms, and small farmhouses have older attics under exposed timbers. We clear only the attic and leave the loft swept, without disturbing the lived-in rooms below.
Before roof insulation in Roeselare, the loft must be completely clear. We empty it a few days before the contractor arrives, without touching the insulation in place. Stored rolls and offcuts are wrapped and removed, and any material that could contain asbestos is pointed out without being handled.
Attic clearance in Roeselare: access, carrying down and removal
In a Roeselare terraced house, an attic clearance does not go through the garden or out the back: everything comes down the inside staircase to the front door. So we protect the treads, walls and hallway, and bring items down in controlled loads. Beds and wardrobes assembled in the attic are dismantled on site. In the detached houses of Rumbeke or Beveren the volume is greater: roof rooms, eaves storage and the unboarded loft are cleared in order, and the value of reusable furniture can lower the price or even make the clearance free. Paint tins and wood-treatment products found under the roof are kept apart for a hazardous-waste collection. For the truck, a parking ban is requested from the City of Roeselare in advance, stating the date and address. The Mirom Roeselare recycling parks serve residents; our loads follow suitable reuse and recycling channels.
Roeselare attic clearance: the Ooststraat, Krottegem and Oekene
Near the shops of the Ooststraat and the centre, loading takes place outside peak hours: we bring down and prepare the attic contents early so the truck spends little time outside the house. Around the centre, in Krottegem and Kattenhof, the brick terraced houses often have a back yard that has been roofed over through the years; it can serve as a sheltered sorting area before loading.
In the sections of Rumbeke, Beveren and Oekene, the farming landscape has left outbuildings where tools, machinery and materials pile up. When the attic of a small farmhouse needs clearing, it often makes sense to include the shed, with sorting that separates metal, wood and building materials. Parking there is straightforward. Reusable items go to the social economy.
