Your project in the canton of Aargau
Lying between Zurich and Basel, Aargau is crossed by the Aare, the Reuss and the Limmat, with the Rhine forming its northern edge. Its small historic towns include Aarau, known for its painted eaves, Baden with its old town above the Limmat, as well as Lenzburg and Zofingen. Around these centres, many residential districts of detached houses, rental blocks and newer estates have grown up, particularly in the Freiamt and along the main transport routes. The canton is German-speaking, but you are welcome to write your request in English. In the old town centres, work on façades or roofs may be subject to rules, so check with your municipality before setting a schedule. Give the municipality, postcode and building access, especially for work in the old centres of Aarau or Baden.
- For a village house along the Aare or the Reuss, mention whether the cellar has ever had damp problems.
- In an old town such as Baden or Aarau, explain how easily a works vehicle can reach the building.
- If you live in a recent condominium building, state whether the other co-owners have already given their agreement.
Doors and windows in the canton of Aargau
In Aargau, requests for doors and windows are divided between family villas in the suburbs and older houses in the historic towns. In Aarau, post-war apartment buildings are having their old wooden windows replaced with better-insulated PVC or wood-aluminium models, often apartment by apartment with the agreement of the property management company. In Baden, the houses of the old town along the Limmat keep glazing-barred joinery that should be faithfully reproduced, and the municipality will tell you what is acceptable for these façades. Along the roads and railway lines that cross the canton, acoustic glazing noticeably improves comfort in bedrooms. Secure front doors are also much in demand in residential districts.
- If your home faces a busy road or a railway line, specifically ask for acoustic glazing in the bedrooms.
- For a house in Baden's old town, bring photos of the existing joinery so that the craftsman can reproduce its profiles and glazing bars.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose new windows in Aargau?
Compare frame materials such as wood, plastic, aluminium or wood-aluminium, depending on appearance and maintenance. Look at the glazing, the thermal and acoustic performance and the security features. Ask the installer how the old frames will be removed and the new ones sealed.
Can new glazing be fitted while retaining the existing frame?
The frame's condition, dimensions and hardware determine whether this is practical. Explain the problem and provide photographs of the complete opening. Ask for an inspection of seals and surrounding construction; changing the glass alone will not address every source of draughts or moisture.
What should I compare in doors and windows quotes?
Compare frame and glass specifications, opening functions, removal and installation. Check sealing, internal and external making good, and work on blinds or shutters. Ensure performance claims relate to the specified assembly and ask what documentation and maintenance information will be provided.
How should I prepare for the doors and windows visit or work?
Photograph the opening inside and outside from safe positions. Note furniture, blinds and access restrictions that affect fitting. Agree final measurements and frame colour before manufacture, and discuss how rooms will be protected while the old openings are removed.
