Minister Julien Denormandie: “We must help the artisans”

He comes to meet professionals from the building sector through the Capeb (Confederation of Crafts and Small Building Companies). A trip to discuss the theme of the renovation of a four-story building funded by his department as part of the energy renovation.

Julien Denormandie will launch a call to support artisans working in private homes to better support the resumption of construction sites after the confinement period. According to him, the recovery will be greener, more social and more local. “The goal is to see 100% of professionals in the sector resume their work by the end of May. “

What is the purpose of your visit to Eure-et-Loir today?
The objective is to come and support artisans and in particular those who work in building and energy renovation. I am coming with the National President of Capeb to say to all the French people: “Trust your craftsmen who have implemented the sanitary measures to ensure the safety of employees and construction sites”. Today, the objective is to relaunch work in private homes and in particular energy renovation in housing.

The confinement of building professionals has been questioned by the government. Craftsmen, like customers, have suffered. What can you tell them?
I repeat, you have to trust the craftsmen. Security measures are put in place, professionals respect distances and intervene with masks. The government and Capeb have put together a guide to enforce these measures. Today, the recovery is here. Companies, employees and the self-employed want to go back to work. 72% of projects have resumed at the national level, against 50% a week ago and 36% a fortnight ago. In Center-Val de Loire, the recovery rate is also over 70%.

Have you taken any further measures to encourage the French to invest in the energy renovation of their homes?
What is certain is that the recovery will be greener, more social and more local. The theme of energy renovation of housing must be a highlight of this recovery. This is why the government wanted the French to launch energy renovation works after the deconfinement. Interested parties can call 0808 800 700 to access the new building renovation support assistance with MaPrimeRénov ’. This will allow them to install new heating, replace a boiler, insulate a wall, insulate a roof and improve the energy renovation of their homes. I am convinced that energy renovation is a strong element of economic recovery. Until then, they have not benefited low-income households enough. That’s why we created MaPrimeRénov ’: we offer accessible assistance to low-income households. The best way to support our artisans is to help them get back to work. The goal is for 100% of construction sites to resume by the end of May.
