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.
Doors and windows in the canton of Graubünden
In Graubünden, altitude and long winters make insulating openings a priority. In the Engadine, traditional houses with thick walls and funnel-shaped window recesses require made-to-measure joinery that respects this typical form, and each municipality has its say before the work. In St. Moritz, Arosa or Klosters, many holiday apartments and chalets are unoccupied for part of the year, so owners look for secure front doors and easy-care windows. In Chur, the apartment buildings and houses of the old town mainly offer conventional replacement projects. The intense sunshine at altitude quickly wears timber frames on the south side.
- For an Engadine house, ask for a window frame that fits the splayed recess without reducing its visible depth.
- In a holiday home, schedule installation during your stay or arrange a key handover so as not to delay the work.

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