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.

Floor covering work in the canton of St. Gallen

In the canton of St. Gallen, urban centres, villages in the Rhine valley and the valleys of the Toggenburg offer varied situations. In the city of St. Gallen, the elegant buildings around the cathedral often have fine parquet worth preserving, while more recent flats have carpets to be replaced with vinyl. In Rapperswil and Jona, on Lake Zurich, family homes opt for light, bright coverings. In the villages of Altstätten or Buchs, workshops and shops look for floors that resist footfall and cleaning products. In the Toggenburg, around Wattwil, renovated farms require serious preparation work.

  • In an old building in St. Gallen, have it assessed whether the old parquet can be renovated before covering it with a new floor.
  • For a farm in the Toggenburg, allow time for levelling the floors, which are often distorted by age and damp.

Frequently asked questions

What should I consider when choosing a new floor in St. Gallen?

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.
