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.
Roofing and sheet metal work in the canton of Aargau
In Aargau, family homes in residential districts stand alongside old farmhouses on the Plateau and the historic towns along the Aare. In Aarau, the steep brown-tiled roofs of the historic centre have many dormers whose sheet metal cladding and junctions must remain perfectly watertight. Around Baden, buildings near the Limmat are exposed to frequent autumn fog, which encourages moss and deposits in the gutters. On farm barns, the large roof areas need regular checks of the ridges and rainwater downpipes. If you plan to replace the roof covering or add a roof window in a protected area, check first with the municipality.
- Have the dormer cladding checked at the same time as the roof covering, as leaks often appear there before reaching the attic.
- After a foggy autumn, ask for the gutters and outlet guards to be cleaned so that water does not overflow onto the façade.

Frequently asked questions
What information helps assess a roof leak in Aargau?
Describe where water is visible indoors, when it appears and any recent storm damage or repairs. Safe photographs and earlier roof documents help explain the situation. Keep people away from dangerous wet areas and do not climb onto the roof or touch wet electrical equipment.
How can I describe a roof leak without inspecting the roof myself?
Record where and when moisture appears indoors and take photographs only from safe positions. A visible interior stain may be away from the entry point. Mention recent storms or previous repairs; the contractor needs to inspect roof details to establish the cause.
What should I compare in roof repair and sheet metal work quotes?
Compare work on the roof covering with work on gutters, flashings and other metal joints. Ask how access, temporary protection and disposal are handled. A targeted leak repair and broader roof renewal need separate descriptions and a clear account of the areas included.
How should I prepare for the roof repair and sheet metal work visit or work?
Keep occupants away from unsafe wet areas, especially near electrical equipment. Provide access information for the attic and surrounding property without opening damaged roof elements. Gather earlier roofing documents and agree any shared-building access with the caretaker or manager.
