Your project in the canton of St. Gallen
The canton of St. Gallen almost entirely surrounds the two Appenzells and stretches from Lake Constance to Lake Zurich. The city of St. Gallen is known for its old town with oriel-windowed houses and for many buildings from its textile era. Rapperswil and Jona, on the shore of Lake Zurich, combine a historic centre with newer residential districts. Wil and Gossau are busy regional centres, while in the Rhine Valley, Altstätten and Buchs lie close to the Austrian border. The Toggenburg, around Wattwil, is a hilly landscape of farms and timber chalets. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can be written in English. For an old house in a town centre, ask your municipality whether the planned work requires approval. Give the municipality and postcode and describe building access, whether the project is in town, by the lake or in the Toggenburg.
- For an oriel-windowed house in St. Gallen's old town, attach photos of the façade and windows.
- In the Toggenburg, say whether the house is isolated and how it can be reached in winter.
- On the shores of Lake Zurich or Lake Constance, describe access to the plot and the space available for materials.
Façade work in the canton of St. Gallen
For façade work in St. Gallen, identify the actual surfaces, coatings, damage and any timber or decorative elements to retain. Attach photographs and available information on previous treatments. If the building has known heritage or appearance restrictions, include them before colours, materials or insulation are selected. Describe height, access and available space for equipment. Cracks, damp areas and detached coatings need assessment before a treatment is specified. Record orientation and exposure for the property.
- For a house with an oriel, ask for the scaffolding to be erected so that it neither loads nor damages the projecting parts.
- On Toggenburg shingle cladding, have the fixings checked before repainting, as a loose piece lets water in.

Frequently asked questions
How is a facade renovation organised in St. Gallen?
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.
