Your project in the canton of Graubünden
Switzerland's largest canton, Graubünden brings together alpine valleys, renowned resorts and three languages: German, Romansh and Italian. Chur, the capital, has a lively old town and expanding residential districts. Davos, St. Moritz, Arosa and Klosters are home to chalets, second homes and hotels, often at high altitude. In the Lower Engadine, Scuol is surrounded by Engadine houses with thick walls decorated with sgraffito, while Poschiavo, in the south, is Italian-speaking. In the mountains, snow, pass roads and a short building season mean that outdoor work must be planned carefully. Whatever the valley, you can write your request in English. For a traditional house or visible work in a village, it is advisable to contact the municipality first. Give the municipality and postcode, when the property is accessible and any mountain road or transport restrictions.
- For a chalet at altitude, explain winter access and when the work could take place.
- For a second home, state when you will be there and who can let tradespeople in.
- For an Engadine house with thick walls, attach photos of the façades and openings.
Masonry work in the canton of Graubünden
In Graubünden, altitude and long winters set the pace: exterior masonry waits for the fine season, after the thaw. In the Engadine, traditional houses have thick walls rendered with lime and decorated with sgraffito; renovating them, notably in Scuol, requires compatible mortars and great respect for the decoration. In resorts such as Davos, holiday homes and condominium buildings generate work on underground garages, terraces and retaining walls. In the lower valleys, more urban buildings also call for interior conversions. In protected villages, the municipality must be consulted before any change to a façade.
- On a decorated Engadine façade, ask for a mason experienced with lime renders and photograph the decoration before the work.
- For a holiday home, appoint someone on site who can open up, check progress and receive deliveries.

Frequently asked questions
What should I discuss with a mason before starting work in Graubünden?
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.
