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.
Parquet flooring work in the canton of Geneva
In Geneva, many older flats in Eaux-Vives, Champel or Plainpalais have kept their oak chevron or herringbone parquet, which is renovated by sanding, replacing a few boards and applying a new lacquer. Property management companies frequently request this type of refurbishment between tenants, with a matt, hard-wearing finish. In the villas of Cologny or Versoix, owners tend to choose wide solid planks or chevrons laid over underfloor heating. In a condominium, a noisy floating floor can cause friction with the neighbour below, so the underlay matters as much as the boards. When the building is protected, first ask the municipality which rules apply.
- For a refurbishment before handing back a rented flat, ask the property management company which finish is required: lacquered, oiled or waxed.
- In an old building, have a herringbone floor completed with reclaimed oak to keep an even colour.

Frequently asked questions
How can I describe my existing wood floor in Geneva?
Give the room areas and any known board specification, such as solid or engineered wood, along with the current coating and previous treatments. Photograph worn areas and transitions from a safe position. Ask the fitter to identify the floor and the permitted treatment before choosing sanding or a new finish.
Can worn parquet be restored without replacing it?
The remaining wear layer, board condition and previous treatment determine which repairs or sanding are possible. Send photographs and any known flooring specification. A site inspection can distinguish surface wear from damage requiring local board replacement or work on the underlying base.
What should I compare in parquet and floor coverings quotes?
Compare board repairs, sanding, finishing and skirting work against the same area. For new parquet, check timber grade, laying method and any acoustic layer. Ask for product-care instructions and conditions for using the rooms after the specified treatment.
How should I prepare for the parquet and floor coverings visit or work?
Plan where furniture will go while the room is clear and identify heavy fitted items that cannot move. Keep records of earlier oils or coatings if available. Agree transitions, thresholds and protection of adjoining rooms before restoration or laying starts.
