Your project in the canton of Lucerne
The canton of Lucerne is centred on the city of the same name, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, and extends into the Entlebuch and the Seetal. Lucerne's old town, with its covered bridges and painted façades, has many old buildings where lorry access is restricted. Kriens, Emmenbrücke and Ebikon form the suburban area, with many rental blocks and condominium flats. On the lakeshore, Meggen and Horw feature villas and houses with views. Further west, Sursee and Willisau have kept small old towns surrounded by countryside and farms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can explain your project in English in your request. For work on an old building or the exterior, check with your municipality. Give the municipality and postcode, the available delivery space and access to the building's different floors.
- In Lucerne's old town, describe vehicle access and whether there is a goods lift.
- For a lakeside villa, say whether the plot is sloping and how it can be reached.
- In a condominium in the suburbs, state whether the work affects the communal areas.
Plastering and painting work in the canton of Lucerne
In Lucerne, the old town and its historic houses sit alongside the newer districts of the urban area, such as Kriens. In the centre, older flats call for the restoration of decorated ceilings, cornices and walls with uneven surfaces. On the outskirts, steady construction of buildings in condominium ownership brings finishing work in new homes, changes to partitions and acoustic suspended ceilings. On the lakeshore, in Meggen, villas call for decorative plasters and high-end finishes. Humidity from the lake and autumn fog can slow the drying of plaster, which must be taken into account in the schedule.
- For a villa on Lake Lucerne, ventilate well while the plaster dries, especially in autumn when the air is heavy with moisture.
- In a new home in Kriens, wait for the building to settle before choosing a wallpaper or decorative plaster that is sensitive to cracks.

Frequently asked questions
What should I ask a plasterer and painter in Lucerne?
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.
