Local considerations in the area

Dorval has a concentration of industrial and logistics parks around the airport, with dense on-site networks: electrical, telecom, gas, drainage and old process piping. The neighbouring cities (Pointe-Claire, Beaconsfield, Kirkland, Dollard-des-Ormeaux) have many homes built between 1950 and 1980, several of which were heated with oil from a buried tank. Lachine and Pointe-Claire also have commercial building stock where concrete scanning comes before renovations.
