Your project in the canton of Bern

For work in the canton of Bern, give the municipality, postcode and exact type of property. Describe whether the site is an occupied apartment, a house, an outbuilding or another premises. State the floor, lift availability, vehicle access and any carrying distance. For changes to the exterior or the use of a building, include any planning or heritage documents already available and identify the authority responsible for the project. Say which language you prefer for discussing the work and attach photographs of the areas concerned.

  • In the Oberland, give the altitude of the chalet and say whether the road stays open in winter.
  • In Bern's old town, mention the floor and whether access is from the street or a rear courtyard.
  • If you live in a bilingual area, say which language you would prefer to be contacted in.

Small repairs in the canton of Bern

When it comes to small repairs, the canton of Bern offers a great variety of situations. In Bern's old town, apartments under the arcades have old doors, herringbone parquet and windows with espagnolette bolts that need fine adjustment. In Biel/Bienne, apartment buildings generate a lot of touch-up work between leases: plug holes to fill, broken handles, bath seals to redo. In the Oberland, around Interlaken, chalets and second homes need regular checks of shutters, wooden balconies and locks after long absences. In the Bernese Jura, towards Saint-Imier, rural buildings often need light joinery work.

  • When moving out of a Bern home, have wall fixing holes filled and touched up to make the handover inspection with the property management company easier.
  • For an Oberland chalet used intermittently, ask for shutters and locks to be checked at the end of each season.

Frequently asked questions

How should I prepare for a handyman's visit in Bern?

List all the small jobs you want done so they can be handled in a single visit. Have any parts or items to install ready, such as shelves, curtain rails or light fittings. Clear the work areas and tell the handyman about any access restrictions.

Which small jobs should be separated from a handyman request?

Describe every task, including the surface or item involved. Work on electrical installations, gas equipment, load-bearing parts or other specialised systems may need a different trade. Ask the provider to confirm the accepted scope rather than assuming one visit can cover every repair.

What should I compare in handyman and small repairs quotes?

Compare the complete task list, materials, fixings and disposal. Specify whether you supply parts or need them sourced. Ask how unsuitable surfaces or missing components discovered during the visit will be handled, and agree approval before additional work is undertaken.

How should I prepare for the handyman and small repairs visit or work?

Make the work areas accessible and keep the listed parts available. Photograph the relevant wall, door or item without removing covers from installations. Mention drilling restrictions, hidden services or fragile finishes so the method and required specialist input can be assessed.
