Your project in the canton of Lucerne

The canton of Lucerne is centred on the city of the same name, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, and extends into the Entlebuch and the Seetal. Lucerne's old town, with its covered bridges and painted façades, has many old buildings where lorry access is restricted. Kriens, Emmenbrücke and Ebikon form the suburban area, with many rental blocks and condominium flats. On the lakeshore, Meggen and Horw feature villas and houses with views. Further west, Sursee and Willisau have kept small old towns surrounded by countryside and farms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can explain your project in English in your request. For work on an old building or the exterior, check with your municipality. Give the municipality and postcode, the available delivery space and access to the building's different floors.

  • In Lucerne's old town, describe vehicle access and whether there is a goods lift.
  • For a lakeside villa, say whether the plot is sloping and how it can be reached.
  • In a condominium in the suburbs, state whether the work affects the communal areas.

Complete renovation in the canton of Lucerne

In the canton of Lucerne, complete renovations are divided between city flats, lakeside villas and farms in the hinterland. In Lucerne itself, late nineteenth-century buildings near the station and the lake offer fine volumes, but floors, installations and bathrooms often need to be completely redone. In Meggen or Horw, houses overlooking Lake Lucerne undergo more ambitious transformations, sometimes with an extension. In small towns such as Sursee or Willisau, houses in the old town require you to check with your municipality before touching the façades. In agricultural zones, converting a farm building also follows particular rules.

  • For a lakeside house, have the waterproofing of the basement and foundations checked, especially if the water table is close to the surface.
  • In an older Lucerne building, ask for a survey of existing installations before deciding where the new kitchen will go.

Frequently asked questions

How is a full renovation organised in Lucerne?

It starts with a site visit and a clear definition of the project, followed by the necessary plans and formalities. The trades then work in a planned order, usually from demolition to finishes. Regular site meetings let you follow progress and approve choices.

How can the scope of a full renovation be kept manageable?

Break the project into rooms and work packages, then identify their interfaces and the person coordinating them. Existing structure and installations need assessment before the final sequence is agreed. Ask how choices, discoveries and changes will be documented and approved throughout the project.

What should I compare in full renovation quotes?

Compare surveys, design, removal, installations and finishes against the same detailed brief. Check which work packages are provisional and who coordinates them. Ask for a project-specific sequence and approval process, rather than relying on a generic duration for a whole-property renovation.

How should I prepare for the full renovation visit or work?

Gather plans, earlier reports and a list of retained features. Describe occupancy and access constraints early. Agree surveys, protection, storage and temporary services with the project team; do not strip out old materials before the required assessments and work sequence have been established.
