Your project in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn extends along the foot of the Jura and the Aare. The town of Solothurn, with its churches and Baroque houses, has an old town where getting around by vehicle is difficult. Olten, a railway hub, and Grenchen, shaped by watchmaking, have rental blocks and districts of family homes. Zuchwil and Biberist form a more residential suburban area, while Balsthal opens onto the Thal valley and its farms. In the north, Dornach lies within Basel's orbit. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can still be written in English. In the old town or for a change to a façade, it is essential to check with your municipality. Give the municipality, postcode and delivery access restrictions, especially if the building is in an old town.
- In Solothurn's old town, say whether access is via a pedestrian street or a courtyard.
- For a family home in Grenchen or Olten, give the year of construction and any work already carried out.
- For a farmhouse in the Thal, describe access to the building and the parts to be renovated.
Façade work in the canton of Solothurn
In Solothurn, the Baroque town stands out for its grey-white limestone buildings, quarried nearby; these stone façades require gentle cleaning and targeted repairs. In the centre, a prior discussion with the municipality is essential before scheduling the work. In Grenchen, a former watchmaking town at the foot of the Jura, apartment blocks and workers' houses from past decades are often candidates for external insulation with new render. At the foot of the Jura ridges, fog on the Aare plain and winter frost put renders to the test. In the Thal and the Schwarzbubenland alike, rubble-stone village houses require breathable renders.
- On a limestone façade, avoid acidic products that attack the stone and prefer gentle steam cleaning.
- On the Aare plain, allow sufficient drying time between coats, as fog slows the setting of renders.

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