Your project in the canton of Fribourg
The canton of Fribourg links French- and German-speaking Switzerland, and bilingualism is part of everyday life. The city of Fribourg, with its Lower Town beside the Sarine, has old houses where access can be narrow. Bulle and the Gruyère region combine newer districts, farmhouses and alpine chalets, while Châtel-St-Denis opens onto the Veveyse. In the north, Estavayer-le-Lac and Murten line the lakes, with remarkably well-preserved walled old towns. In the Sense district, around Düdingen, German is the main language. Your request can be written in English anywhere in the canton; let us know whether contact in French or German also suits you. Façades, windows or an extension may require approval, and your municipality can tell you more. Give the municipality, postcode and preferred language for communication, along with building access details.
- For a house in Fribourg's Lower Town, describe the access constraints and the slope of the street.
- In the Gruyère region, for a chalet or farmhouse, give the altitude and explain access in winter.
- State your preferred language, particularly in the Sense or Lake districts.
Partial renovation in the canton of Fribourg
The canton of Fribourg combines urban buildings, Gruyère villages and the lakeshores of the Broye and the Seeland. In the city of Fribourg, houses in the Lower Town, built on molasse, are often renovated in parts: kitchen, bathroom or attic conversion. In Bulle, newer residential districts mainly see modernised bathrooms and floor coverings. In Gruyère farmhouses converted into homes, you have to work with irregular volumes and old roof structures. In the medieval lakeside towns, stone walls call for carefully chosen renders. If your Fribourg house is in a protected site, check with your municipality. The canton's bilingualism may also matter: state the language you would like to use.
- In a house on molasse, have the cellar walls checked for damp before turning the space into a habitable room.
- For a converted farmhouse, arrange a joint visit with the tradesperson to assess the roof structure before opening up the attic.

Frequently asked questions
How should I prepare for a bathroom or kitchen renovation in Fribourg?
Clear the room completely and plan an alternative for cooking or washing during the work. Choose your fixtures, tiles and fittings early so that they are available on time. Agree with the company on access, working hours and how the site will be protected.
How can a partial renovation be planned in an occupied home?
Identify essential routes, sleeping areas and washing or cooking facilities that must remain usable. Ask how dust, noise and interruptions will be managed. A sequence agreed for the specific rooms is more useful than assuming a standard duration for every renovation.
What should I compare in partial renovation quotes?
Compare the same room and task list, including preparation, hidden installations and finishes. Identify removal, disposal and protection of retained areas. Ask how discoveries after opening walls or floors will be recorded and approved before extra work proceeds.
How should I prepare for the partial renovation visit or work?
Prepare photographs, available plans and a list of fixtures to keep. Make material choices with the contractor before ordering, and agree access and storage areas. Avoid dismantling existing installations before their condition and any required checks have been assessed.
