>> What causes loss of sunlight?
The construction of a new building is a major event in the life of my neighborhood. With this new building, new amenities such as green spaces, relaxation areas, shops and restaurants can be created.
However, the construction of a new building can overshadow neighboring dwellings. In Louviers, Normandy, for example, local residents are protesting against an ongoing building project. Two new buildings threaten to overshadow them. Their homes are likely to suffer a significant loss of sunlight.
How can I avoid or compensate for the loss of sunlight caused by the construction of a new building in my neighborhood?
A new building is going up in front of my house, depriving me of sunlight. How do I deal with this loss of sunlight? The first idea is an amicable approach. I can discuss the problem with the people in charge of the project and work out a solution with them. On the other hand, if this discussion has no impact, there are other legal recourses open to me. I can turn to my local town hall. I can also apply to the administrative court to have the building permit annulled. In this case, it’s advisable to call on a lawyer specializing in property issues for precise legal advice on possible remedies.
To be able to enjoy the benefits of this new building, it’s preferable for me and the other people concerned not to have to cancel the building work. Espaciel’s solutions are a way of achieving these benefits while compensating for the loss of sunlight.
A design office can carry out a detailed study of the loss of sunlight. This will enable us to identify constructive solutions for those responsible for the construction, as well as possible re-insulating devices such as solar reflectors.
Espaciel has a range of products and solutions for re-solarizing homes following the construction of a new building. These constructions can easily prevent light from coming in, shading neighboring dwellings. In this situation, the Espaciel Solar Patio Reflector is a real solution to the problem, as it recovers lost natural light by redirecting the sun’s rays towards my home.
