THE REVITALIZATION OF A CENTURY-OLD CHURCH: A LABOUR OF LOVE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bisson Expert was hired by the Riverfield Church Presbyterian Foundation to take part in the renovation of Riverfield Presbyterian Church, in the community of Howick, in the heart of the municipality of the parish of Tr\u00e8s-Saint-Sacrement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bisson Expert is working with the Carmichael firm to bring this 155 year old church back to life. Our team is in charge of transforming the crawl space into a very large reception hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Bisson Expert, everything starts from the heart. The passion that drives our team runs as deep as the foundations of this inspiring building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s important to us to take part in initiatives that enrich a community’s living environment. It’s through projects like this one that the Company’s mission takes on its full meaning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Providing optimal foundation and structural repair solutions to restore families’ peace of mind.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE WORK CARRIED OUT<\/h2>\n
\n

Bisson Expert produced specialized engineering plans for the entire restoration project, including the basement excavation and the structure of the ground-level floors.<\/p>\n

The client had to remove all the furniture before the floors and walls of the building could be demolished. Next, the Bisson Expert team excavated the 3-foot crawl space to create a functional basement with 9 feet of headroom. The team then dug under the existing stone foundations to extend them with underpinning conrete foundations, while supporting the building.<\/p>\n
