Your project in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn extends along the foot of the Jura and the Aare. The town of Solothurn, with its churches and Baroque houses, has an old town where getting around by vehicle is difficult. Olten, a railway hub, and Grenchen, shaped by watchmaking, have rental blocks and districts of family homes. Zuchwil and Biberist form a more residential suburban area, while Balsthal opens onto the Thal valley and its farms. In the north, Dornach lies within Basel's orbit. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can still be written in English. In the old town or for a change to a façade, it is essential to check with your municipality. Give the municipality, postcode and delivery access restrictions, especially if the building is in an old town.
- In Solothurn's old town, say whether access is via a pedestrian street or a courtyard.
- For a family home in Grenchen or Olten, give the year of construction and any work already carried out.
- For a farmhouse in the Thal, describe access to the building and the parts to be renovated.
Plumbing work in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn alternates between urban centres and Jura valleys. In Solothurn, the Baroque old town has narrow houses where bathrooms were added late, sometimes in the attic. In Olten and Grenchen, apartment blocks from the industrial boom are having risers and clogged pipes replaced. In the residential areas of Zuchwil and Biberist, owners often renovate ageing bathrooms and replace water heaters. In the Thal, around Balsthal, farms and village houses exposed to the cold require particular attention to outdoor pipes. For an attic conversion or a new connection, discuss it with your municipality.
- For an attic bathroom, check that the drain gradient can reach the existing stack without a pump.
- In a building from the industrial era, ask whether pipes can be replaced through the existing ducts.

Frequently asked questions
What should I discuss with the plumber before a bathroom refit in Solothurn?
Explain the layout you want and whether fixtures such as the shower, toilet or basin will move. Ask about the condition of the existing pipes and whether they should be replaced at the same time. Choose your fittings early so the plumber can plan the connections accordingly.
What needs checking before bathroom fixtures are moved?
Available drainage routes, water connections and space around the fittings affect the new layout. Share existing plans if available and explain what should move. Ask who checks these constraints and coordinates waterproofing, tiling and electrical work before the bathroom design is finalised.
What should I compare in plumber (sanitary installer) quotes?
Compare pipework, fixtures, connections and testing against the same bathroom layout. Distinguish supplied fittings from installation-only work. Ask whether removal, access openings and reinstatement are included, and clarify coordination with the trades finishing walls and floors.
How should I prepare for the plumber (sanitary installer) visit or work?
List fixtures and appliances to keep and provide model details of replacements already selected. Agree access to shared service areas where relevant. Discuss how water use and washing facilities will be managed during the work; do not disconnect plumbing in advance yourself.
