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.

Façade work in the canton of Graubünden

In Graubünden, the Engadine house is a heritage in its own right: thick walls, funnel-shaped windows and sgraffito decoration engraved in the render. In Scuol, these houses are restored with lime renders and traditional craftsmanship; before touching any decoration, contact the municipality. At altitude, temperature differences between day and night, frost and intense sunlight put renders and paints to the test, which restricts exterior work to the summer. The cantonal capital, Chur, offers a completely different context, with refurbishment and insulation of apartment buildings. For a holiday home, the work is often coordinated remotely with the owner.

  • For an Engadine house, ask for a photographic record of the sgraffito before the work so the patterns can be faithfully restored.
  • If you do not live on site, appoint a contact person who can open the house and follow the progress of the work.

Frequently asked questions

How is a facade renovation organised in Graubünden?

The company first assesses the condition of the facade and identifies cracks, moisture or damaged render. Scaffolding is then erected, the surfaces are cleaned and repaired, and the new finish is applied. Ask how windows, plants and access to the building will be protected during the work.

Should a facade crack simply be covered with new render?

Describe the crack pattern, age and any observed changes, with photographs from safe ground positions. The cause may need assessment before a finish is renewed. Ask how damaged areas and moisture will be investigated and which repairs are included in the proposed facade treatment.

What should I compare in facade contractor quotes?

Compare cleaning, repairs, render or coating and work at windows or junctions. Check scaffolding, protection and disposal as well as the finish specification. Where insulation is proposed, make sure it is separately described rather than assuming every facade renewal includes it.

How should I prepare for the facade contractor visit or work?

Identify access routes, balconies, planted areas and fixtures requiring protection. Gather information about earlier facade work. Agree arrangements with neighbours or the building manager where scaffolding affects shared areas, and keep windows or vents accessible as specified by the work plan.
