Your project in the canton of Lucerne
The canton of Lucerne is centred on the city of the same name, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, and extends into the Entlebuch and the Seetal. Lucerne's old town, with its covered bridges and painted façades, has many old buildings where lorry access is restricted. Kriens, Emmenbrücke and Ebikon form the suburban area, with many rental blocks and condominium flats. On the lakeshore, Meggen and Horw feature villas and houses with views. Further west, Sursee and Willisau have kept small old towns surrounded by countryside and farms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can explain your project in English in your request. For work on an old building or the exterior, check with your municipality. Give the municipality and postcode, the available delivery space and access to the building's different floors.
- In Lucerne's old town, describe vehicle access and whether there is a goods lift.
- For a lakeside villa, say whether the plot is sloping and how it can be reached.
- In a condominium in the suburbs, state whether the work affects the communal areas.
Masonry work in the canton of Lucerne
In the canton of Lucerne, the lakeshore and the districts of Lucerne concentrate apartment blocks, villas and condominium flats, often built on slopes. Masonry work there concerns retaining walls, access routes, garages dug into the ground and terraces. Near the water, cellars and basements are affected by a high water table; waterproofing of buried walls is then essential. In the hinterland, around Willisau, farms and agricultural buildings tend to need slabs, pits, barn walls and foundation repairs. In the old town, anything visible from public space is first discussed with the municipality.
- For a lakeside house, report any seepage in the cellar in spring: that is when the water table rises.
- For an agricultural slab or pit, specify the machinery that will pass over it and the weight of the vehicles.

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