Your project in the canton of Graubünden
Switzerland's largest canton, Graubünden brings together alpine valleys, renowned resorts and three languages: German, Romansh and Italian. Chur, the capital, has a lively old town and expanding residential districts. Davos, St. Moritz, Arosa and Klosters are home to chalets, second homes and hotels, often at high altitude. In the Lower Engadine, Scuol is surrounded by Engadine houses with thick walls decorated with sgraffito, while Poschiavo, in the south, is Italian-speaking. In the mountains, snow, pass roads and a short building season mean that outdoor work must be planned carefully. Whatever the valley, you can write your request in English. For a traditional house or visible work in a village, it is advisable to contact the municipality first. Give the municipality and postcode, when the property is accessible and any mountain road or transport restrictions.
- For a chalet at altitude, explain winter access and when the work could take place.
- For a second home, state when you will be there and who can let tradespeople in.
- For an Engadine house with thick walls, attach photos of the façades and openings.
Accessibility adaptations for people with reduced mobility in the canton of Graubünden
In Graubünden, altitude, snow and terrain make home accessibility particularly demanding. In the Engadine houses of Scuol or St. Moritz, thick walls, vaults and raised entrances complicate the installation of a ramp; a discreet indoor lift is often preferred. In Chur, apartment buildings and villas on the valley floor more readily allow a level-access bathroom or a private lift. In resorts such as Davos or Arosa, many owners adapt their holiday flat for an elderly parent, also thinking about the route from the underground car park. In villages with protected heritage, the municipality will tell you which external alterations are possible.
- For an Engadine house, have the wall thickness assessed before widening a door, as an opening in old masonry needs a suitable lintel.
- In a resort, check that the route between the shared garage and your flat is clear and without steps, even in high season.

Frequently asked questions
How should an accessible route be defined in Graubünden?
Identify the starting point, rooms and everyday tasks the route must connect, including entrances and shared areas. Note thresholds, door movement and equipment used without publishing medical diagnoses. Ask for assessment of the whole route, so adapting one doorway does not leave another practical obstacle unresolved.
How can I describe accessibility needs without medical details?
Explain the movements and tasks that are difficult, the equipment used and the relevant room or doorway dimensions. A description of the practical obstacle can support planning without a medical history. Ask for an assessment of the actual space and the proposed solution before selecting equipment.
What should I compare in adaptations for reduced mobility quotes?
Compare adaptations against the same practical needs, including door clearances, manoeuvring space and controls. Clarify installation, testing and making good surrounding finishes. Ask which assessments are necessary and who coordinates them; a product alone does not establish that the complete route is accessible.
How should I prepare for the adaptations for reduced mobility visit or work?
Prepare a simple route plan from the entrance to the rooms used most. Note thresholds, narrow points and items to retain. Discuss the proposed changes with the person who will use them, and arrange any specialist assessment privately when it is relevant.
