In September 2018, a tornado measuring EF-3 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale with high winds of up to 265 km/h hit Gatineau hitting Mont-Bleu High School hard. The building was severely damaged by fire and required major renovations.

We are proud to be able to contribute to the renovation as a specialized painting contractor in collaboration with the general contractor Boless Inc.

Schools are part of the institutional sector, so tenders are public. One of the criteria that the specialized contractor must meet, in addition to being the lowest bidder, is to provide proof that its employees have no criminal record. Moreover, this criterion is not insignificant when it is a school dealing with a minor clientele. Obtaining a contract in the institutional sector is therefore a sign of notoriety, but also of security and trust.

Our services have been required to apply fireproof protection on all exposed structures (beams) requiring a superior quality of execution in order to avoid any apparent defect. This requirement is not an aesthetic issue, but a safety issue. Fireproofing, applied by spraying a cementitious coating, prevents certain components from catching fire in the event of a fire. The quality of work and professionalism of our house painters ensure that our children are safe.

The renovation of Mont-Bleu High School also included the repainting of approximately 60 classrooms and offices, totaling 155,000 square feet. A team of 8 painters worked with the goal of giving the community a new and safe school for their children.

Professionalism, integrity and quality are our core values, to which we add in our operations the values of altruism, efficiency and fun. In fact, these values are a way of integrating love, peace and joy in everything we do. Our ultimate aspiration is to humanize construction.
