Your project in the canton of Aargau
Lying between Zurich and Basel, Aargau is crossed by the Aare, the Reuss and the Limmat, with the Rhine forming its northern edge. Its small historic towns include Aarau, known for its painted eaves, Baden with its old town above the Limmat, as well as Lenzburg and Zofingen. Around these centres, many residential districts of detached houses, rental blocks and newer estates have grown up, particularly in the Freiamt and along the main transport routes. The canton is German-speaking, but you are welcome to write your request in English. In the old town centres, work on façades or roofs may be subject to rules, so check with your municipality before setting a schedule. Give the municipality, postcode and building access, especially for work in the old centres of Aarau or Baden.
- For a village house along the Aare or the Reuss, mention whether the cellar has ever had damp problems.
- In an old town such as Baden or Aarau, explain how easily a works vehicle can reach the building.
- If you live in a recent condominium building, state whether the other co-owners have already given their agreement.
Plastering and painting work in the canton of Aargau
In Aargau, plasterers and painters work as much in the old houses of the historic towns as in the newer housing estates of the Freiamt. In Baden, flats above the Limmat sometimes retain lath-and-plaster ceilings with cornices and ceiling roses that must be restored without making them look heavy. For an apartment in Aarau, specify any holes to fill, damaged walls, desired finishes and whether the work is planned between tenancies. Family homes built in series tend to call for lightweight partitions, suspended ceilings to hide ducts or decorative plasters in the living areas. Along the Aare, a damp ground-floor wall must dry out before any new plaster is applied.
- In an old Aargau house, have the ceilings tested before repainting, as plaster that sounds hollow must be consolidated before it is covered.
- For a rented flat in Aarau, keep the references of the colour applied to make touch-ups easier when the keys are next handed over.

Frequently asked questions
What should I ask a plasterer and painter in Aargau?
Ask how cracks and damaged walls will be repaired before painting. Check which paints and finishes are proposed and how many coats are planned. Also ask how furniture, floors and fittings will be protected during the work.
How do plaster preparation and the final paint finish relate?
The condition and smoothness of the base influence how the final paint looks, particularly under side lighting. State the expected finish and show damaged areas. Ask which filling, plastering or sanding is included before painting, and what needs further assessment rather than cosmetic covering.
What should I compare in plastering and painting quotes?
Compare repairs, plaster layers, surface finish and the paint system. Identify ceilings, partitions and decorative details separately. Ask how dust and occupied rooms are managed, and whether the quote includes protecting and reinstating fittings removed to reach the work area.
How should I prepare for the plastering and painting visit or work?
Photograph the walls in normal and side light, and identify fixtures or furniture that will remain. Choose colour samples before the final coating. Agree clear work areas and ventilation arrangements, while leaving investigation of damaged or suspect surfaces to the appropriate specialist.
