A Huge New House in Paunat
The foundations
While all of our trades have taken on this project, let's focus more closely on masonry and carpentry. Here, the house takes non-standard measurements: 300m2, on two floors. The foundation is a critical point in this case.

External insulation
The client chose external insulation. The main advantage of this technique is that it brings near zero thermal bridges, the leading cause of heat loss.

The plaster
Finally, we also dealt with the plaster. A not easy task, due to the large surface of the walls.
