Your project in the canton of Geneva
For a project in Geneva, give the municipality and postcode, the rooms or building elements involved and the outcome you want. Describe the actual access: floor, lift, vehicle approach, parking and space for deliveries. Say whether the home or business premises will remain in use during the work. In a rented property or condominium, identify which areas are private and which are shared, and who coordinates decisions about them. If the project changes the exterior or concerns a protected building, check the applicable requirements with the competent authority before starting. Photos, existing plans and any approval documents already available help define the work without assumptions about a neighbourhood’s buildings.
- In a rental building or condominium, say whether the property management company or the co-owners have already given their agreement.
- For a flat in town, give the floor, whether there is a lift and what parking is available.
- For a villa in the Geneva countryside, describe access to the garden if machinery needs to get in.
Doors and windows in the canton of Geneva
In Geneva, a large proportion of homes are in apartment buildings, and window replacement is often decided by the property management company for a whole building at once. In the city's older buildings, the tall timber windows with espagnolette bolts are frequently replaced with models that keep out noise and draughts better, while retaining their original design. In old Carouge, where the Sardinian-style façades give the district its character, the municipality is your first point of contact before touching the joinery. In Cologny and Versoix, villas close to the lake favour wide glazed openings and sliding patio doors. The winter bise puts the seals of north-facing windows to the test.
- In a building run by a property management company, check whether a grouped window replacement is planned before starting work in your own apartment alone.
- For a façade exposed to the bise, ask for the seals and closing adjustments to be checked before winter arrives.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose new windows in Geneva?
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.
