Your project in the canton of Uri
For work in Uri, give the municipality, postcode and delivery route to the property. Mention any current access restriction, vehicle size limit or section where materials must be carried by hand. For roof or façade work, describe the height, orientation, existing damage and any exposure already observed at the site. Provide photographs and available plans so the contractor can assess equipment and access. If the project changes the exterior or adds space, include the planning information you already have. Scheduling should reflect the proposed work, site conditions and current access.
- In Andermatt or at altitude, state the period during which outdoor work is realistic.
- For a roof exposed to the föhn, describe the type of roofing and its age.
- If your house is on a mountain road, describe access for a delivery lorry.
Masonry work in the canton of Uri
In Uri, the Reuss valley is narrow and framed by mountains: rockfall, avalanches and heavy rain directly influence how buildings are constructed. Masons build protective walls, retaining structures, solid foundations and well-drained basements. In Altdorf, the town has old thick-walled houses and apartment blocks whose balconies, cellars and steps are being renovated. Higher up, in Andermatt, altitude imposes a short building season and frost-resistant materials, with particular attention to holiday homes, which are often unoccupied during the work. For a wall or an extension in an exposed area, talk to the municipality first.
- In an area exposed to rockfall, ask whether a protective wall or reinforcement on the mountain side makes sense.
- At high altitude, schedule concrete pours and exterior masonry for the warmest weeks of summer.

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