Your project in the canton of Geneva
For a project in Geneva, give the municipality and postcode, the rooms or building elements involved and the outcome you want. Describe the actual access: floor, lift, vehicle approach, parking and space for deliveries. Say whether the home or business premises will remain in use during the work. In a rented property or condominium, identify which areas are private and which are shared, and who coordinates decisions about them. If the project changes the exterior or concerns a protected building, check the applicable requirements with the competent authority before starting. Photos, existing plans and any approval documents already available help define the work without assumptions about a neighbourhood’s buildings.
- In a rental building or condominium, say whether the property management company or the co-owners have already given their agreement.
- For a flat in town, give the floor, whether there is a lift and what parking is available.
- For a villa in the Geneva countryside, describe access to the garden if machinery needs to get in.
Masonry work in the canton of Geneva
In Geneva, masonry work largely takes place in rented homes and condominiums: opening a kitchen onto the living room, plaster block partitions, screeds before a new floor covering or repairing cracked balconies. In these buildings, the property management company or the condominium committee generally has to give its consent before a wall is touched. On the left bank, in Cologny, villas with boundary walls, stone steps and terraces require regular maintenance. In the Old Town, old walls are repaired with mortars that respect the stone, and the municipality should be consulted for any change visible from the street.
- Before removing a partition in a rented or condominium flat, obtain written consent from the property management company or administrator.
- For a balcony where the concrete is spalling, have the rusted reinforcement treated in depth rather than simply filling the cracks.

Frequently asked questions
What should I discuss with a mason before starting work in Geneva?
Explain the project precisely, whether it is a wall, an opening, an extension or a repair. Ask the mason how the site will be organised, including access for materials, protection and waste removal. For load-bearing walls, check whether an engineer needs to be involved.
What should be established before opening a wall?
Available plans and a site assessment are needed to understand the wall and any services within it. A load-bearing opening needs suitable structural design. Ask who arranges assessment, supports and applicable procedures before demolition; a photograph alone cannot establish whether removal is safe.
What should I compare in mason quotes?
Compare preparation, structural or masonry work and the finish around it. Include supports, material delivery and disposal where applicable. Ask how interfaces with doors, windows or adjoining trades are coordinated, and identify any items that remain provisional until the site has been assessed.
How should I prepare for the mason visit or work?
Gather plans and photographs and state which areas are occupied. Identify access for materials and possible storage space. Do not start demolition to speed up the job; agree the work sequence, protective measures and any required specialist checks with the project team.
