Your project in the canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden
At the foot of the Alpstein, Appenzell Innerrhoden is a landscape of green hills, scattered farmhouses and villages with strong character. The village of Appenzell is famous for its timber houses with brightly painted façades, while Gonten, Schwende and Weissbad have more dispersed settlements, often on sloping ground. The Oberegg enclave, closer to the Rhine Valley, combines traditional houses with more recent buildings. Many properties are old, with timber structures that call for specialist skills when it comes to insulation, windows or woodwork. The canton is German-speaking, yet your request can be written in English. For any project affecting the outside of a traditional Appenzell house, check with your municipality. State the village, postcode and width of the access road if the house is on a slope or outside the village.
- For a timber house with painted façades, attach photos of the exterior so that tradespeople can assess the work.
- If your farmhouse is isolated, describe the access road and how passable it is in winter.
- Give the approximate age of the building, as insulation methods differ for old timber houses.
Floor covering work in the canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden
In Appenzell Innerrhoden, many old houses rest on timber floors that have moved over the generations. Before laying a flexible covering, the tradesperson checks the flatness and screws down any creaking boards, then adds backing panels. In the village of Appenzell, small shops and inns look for floors that withstand shoes wet with snow, such as linoleum or rubber. Around Gonten and Weissbad, guesthouses favour a warm carpet or a wood-effect vinyl that is easy to maintain between stays. The damp cellars and laundry rooms of these farmhouses need a product that is not affected by water.
- On an old Appenzell timber floor, ask for intermediate panels to be laid so that the board joints do not show through the new covering.
- At the entrance to an inn or farmhouse, plan a recessed mat that catches snow and grit before they damage the floor.

Frequently asked questions
What should I consider when choosing a new floor in Appenzell Innerrhoden?
Think about how the room is used, the traffic it gets and whether there is underfloor heating. Parquet, laminate, vinyl and tiles differ in feel, durability and maintenance. Ask the fitter to check the condition of the subfloor before recommending a covering.
Why does the subfloor matter when choosing a covering?
Unevenness, moisture and movement affect adhesion and the finish of the new floor. Different coverings require different preparation. Ask for a check of the existing base and of compatibility with underfloor heating, rather than selecting a material from appearance alone.
What should I compare in flooring installer quotes?
Compare removal, base preparation, the covering, skirting and door adjustments. Check transitions between rooms and any acoustic layer. Material supply without installation is a different scope from a fully prepared and fitted floor, so ask for the same breakdown in each proposal.
How should I prepare for the flooring installer visit or work?
Note the furniture and appliances that must be moved and which areas need to remain accessible. Keep specifications of any existing heating system. Agree storage, delivery and the conditions for walking on the new floor according to the selected product and installation method.
