Deconstruction

The careful deconstruction of ancestral homes can promote the preservation of historic materials. By recovering and reusing architectural elements, such as beams, doors or windows, opportunities can be created for the restoration of other historic buildings or the creation of commemorative public spaces. This helps maintain a tangible connection to the past while incorporating modern advancements.

Furthermore, deconstruction can be seen as an environmental solution. By reducing the amount of construction waste sent to landfills, the negative ecological impact associated with traditional demolition is minimized. Thus, the deconstruction of ancestral houses can be seen as a balanced approach, reconciling progress and preservation, while respecting the environment and enriching local communities.

At Recovered Materials Portneuf, we specialize in the collection, recycling and recovery of various materials. Since 2013, we have offered a wide selection of materials recovered from ancestral buildings earmarked for demolition.

 

Thanks to meticulous deconstruction without machinery, we achieve an almost complete recovery of materials of various origins: residential, agricultural, institutional and industrial.

 

We focus on recovering materials to reduce waste and promote sustainability, selling them as is, refurbishing them, or transforming them into furniture, cabinets, countertops, and other decorative items.

Custom refurbishment

We also offer tailor-made refurbishment services to breathe new life into old materials. Our team of experts can transform your reclaimed materials into unique, personalized furniture or decorative elements that match your individual style and needs.
