Your project in the canton of Uri

For work in Uri, give the municipality, postcode and delivery route to the property. Mention any current access restriction, vehicle size limit or section where materials must be carried by hand. For roof or façade work, describe the height, orientation, existing damage and any exposure already observed at the site. Provide photographs and available plans so the contractor can assess equipment and access. If the project changes the exterior or adds space, include the planning information you already have. Scheduling should reflect the proposed work, site conditions and current access.

  • In Andermatt or at altitude, state the period during which outdoor work is realistic.
  • For a roof exposed to the föhn, describe the type of roofing and its age.
  • If your house is on a mountain road, describe access for a delivery lorry.

Garden design in the canton of Uri

In the canton of Uri, which stretches up to the Gotthard, gardens are shaped by the mountains and the foehn. Around Altdorf, the plan for a family home distributes the terrace, vegetable patch and lawn while taking into account the warm winds that dry out plants. Towards Andermatt, altitude imposes a short season and very hardy planting: mountain pines, rhododendrons, grasses and alpine perennials. Stones from the valley are used to build low walls and steps that blend into the landscape. The designer helps you create a pleasant garden despite a demanding climate. For a retaining wall or a change to the ground levels, ask the municipality for advice before you begin.

  • In a valley exposed to the foehn, have a windbreak hedge planted on the south side to protect the vegetable garden.
  • At high altitude, ask for a plan that favours alpine plants, which are already adapted to cold and sharp swings in temperature.

Frequently asked questions

How can seasonal use guide a garden design in Uri?

Describe when you use the garden and which areas receive sun, shade or standing water at different times of year. Note views to retain and spaces needed for play, seating or food growing. These observations help define the design brief before a planting plan and maintenance programme are proposed.

What should a garden design assignment include?

Decide whether you need an initial concept, a detailed planting plan, construction details or supervision of landscaping. These are separate stages. Explain how you want to use the garden and ask what drawings and revisions will be delivered before physical work begins.

What should I compare in garden design quotes?

Compare the design stages, drawings, plant selection and any site follow-up. Establish whether surveying, permissions or construction are separate. Check how changes to the brief are handled and whether the final documents are sufficient for comparable landscaping quotes.

How should I prepare for the garden design visit or work?

Collect a site plan if available and photographs showing the garden through different seasons. Mark features to keep, such as mature trees or seating areas. Describe the maintenance effort you can manage rather than asking for a style without considering its upkeep.
