Your project in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn extends along the foot of the Jura and the Aare. The town of Solothurn, with its churches and Baroque houses, has an old town where getting around by vehicle is difficult. Olten, a railway hub, and Grenchen, shaped by watchmaking, have rental blocks and districts of family homes. Zuchwil and Biberist form a more residential suburban area, while Balsthal opens onto the Thal valley and its farms. In the north, Dornach lies within Basel's orbit. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can still be written in English. In the old town or for a change to a façade, it is essential to check with your municipality. Give the municipality, postcode and delivery access restrictions, especially if the building is in an old town.
- In Solothurn's old town, say whether access is via a pedestrian street or a courtyard.
- For a family home in Grenchen or Olten, give the year of construction and any work already carried out.
- For a farmhouse in the Thal, describe access to the building and the parts to be renovated.
Small repairs in the canton of Solothurn
In the canton of Solothurn, the baroque town stands alongside industrial centres and Jura valleys. In Solothurn, old-town apartments have heavy doors, old parquet and tall windows that need regular adjustment. In Olten and Grenchen, apartment buildings and workers' houses generate small jobs: handles to change, cupboard hinges, bath seals, interior blinds. In the Thal, around Balsthal, farmhouses and village houses need repairs to barn doors, fences and shutters. Around Dornach, family homes close to Basel often call on a handyman for assembly and fixing work, from shelves and mirrors to garden sheds and letterboxes.
- For the tall windows of an old Solothurn apartment, give their dimensions so the craftsman brings a suitable ladder and parts.
- In a workers' house in Grenchen, have the interior doors checked, as they are often warped by decades of use.

Frequently asked questions
How should I prepare for a handyman's visit in Solothurn?
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.
