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.

Parquet flooring work in the canton of Graubünden

In Graubünden, the chalets and second homes of Davos, Klosters, Arosa or St. Moritz are readily fitted with solid Swiss stone pine or larch floors, whose scent and grain are highly prized. At altitude, the extremely dry air of heated winters makes wood shrink, so a good parquet fitter chooses well-dried boards and allows suitable expansion gaps. Engadine houses with thick walls contain wood-panelled rooms, the stüvas, whose floors are restored with delicacy. In Chur, flats in apartment buildings are mostly renovated with lacquered oak. Work in the resorts is often planned outside the tourist season. In an old Engadine house, a discussion with the municipality is essential before work starts.

  • At altitude, ask for boards whose moisture content matches the dry air of the heated house, to limit splits and open joints.
  • For a second home, arrange access and heating of the house well before the parquet fitter arrives.

Frequently asked questions

How can I describe my existing wood floor in Graubünden?

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.
