Your project in the canton of Vaud
The canton of Vaud stretches from the shores of Lake Geneva to the Vaud Alps. Lausanne, built on steep slopes, has many older rental buildings, condominium flats and streets where parking is difficult. On the Riviera, Vevey and Montreux combine Belle Époque buildings with villas overlooking the lake, while the slopes of Lavaux are covered in terraced vineyards. Nyon and Morges combine old towns and residential districts. Yverdon-les-Bains, at the end of Lake Neuchâtel, and Payerne, in the Broye, open onto more rural surroundings. In the Chablais and the Alps, around Aigle, chalets and mountain houses contend with snow. For a façade, windows or an extension, approval may be required, so check with your municipality. State the municipality and postcode, the type of property and access to the rooms or outdoor areas concerned.
- In Lausanne, describe the slope of the street, the floor and parking options for a works vehicle.
- For a winegrower's house in Lavaux, describe access via the vineyard paths and the space available.
- For a chalet in the Vaud Alps, give the altitude and the period when the road is clear.
Emergency glazing repairs in the canton of Vaud
In the canton of Vaud, emergency glazing situations are numerous and varied. In Lausanne, rental buildings built on the slope have wooden windows, glazed entrance doors and stairwell skylights, and it is often the property management company that appoints the glazier. On the Riviera, around Vevey and Montreux, characterful villas and hotels have large picture windows and winter gardens facing the lake. In northern Vaud, in Yverdon-les-Bains, village houses and farms need glass for old windows and outbuildings. In the Chablais, towards Aigle, cellars and winegrowers' houses are sometimes hit by hail, which is common during summer storms.
- For a winter garden on the Riviera, check that the replacement glass has the same solar control treatment as the other panels.
- In a Lausanne building, report a cracked stairwell skylight to the property management company promptly: the area must be cordoned off for residents' safety.

Frequently asked questions
What information can I safely give an emergency glazier in Vaud?
Describe the affected window or door, the floor and whether glass is still held in the frame. Share photographs taken from a safe position and any known glazing details. Keep people away from the damaged area and leave temporary securing to the glazier.
What should I do around broken glazing?
Keep children, pets and other occupants away from the damaged area. Do not collect glass held in a frame or attempt to cover a high or unstable opening. Take photographs only from a safe position; tell the glazier if secure access is impossible.
What should I compare in emergency glazier quotes?
Distinguish temporary securing from the final replacement pane. Compare glass type, frame work, disposal and sealing, and ask how measurements will be confirmed. A quote should explain what is provisional until the opening and glazing specification have been inspected.
How should I prepare for the emergency glazier visit or work?
Provide safe access information, including the floor and whether the damaged pane faces a street or shared area. Keep any glass identification or prior invoice available. Agree with the property manager who can authorise temporary protection and final replacement.
