Your project in the canton of Graubünden
Switzerland's largest canton, Graubünden brings together alpine valleys, renowned resorts and three languages: German, Romansh and Italian. Chur, the capital, has a lively old town and expanding residential districts. Davos, St. Moritz, Arosa and Klosters are home to chalets, second homes and hotels, often at high altitude. In the Lower Engadine, Scuol is surrounded by Engadine houses with thick walls decorated with sgraffito, while Poschiavo, in the south, is Italian-speaking. In the mountains, snow, pass roads and a short building season mean that outdoor work must be planned carefully. Whatever the valley, you can write your request in English. For a traditional house or visible work in a village, it is advisable to contact the municipality first. Give the municipality and postcode, when the property is accessible and any mountain road or transport restrictions.
- For a chalet at altitude, explain winter access and when the work could take place.
- For a second home, state when you will be there and who can let tradespeople in.
- For an Engadine house with thick walls, attach photos of the façades and openings.
Roofing and sheet metal work in the canton of Graubünden
In Graubünden, altitude shapes almost every roofing project. In Davos, the flat or gently pitched roofs of apartment buildings and hotels keep a thick layer of snow all winter, which acts as insulation but places a heavy load on the structure. In the Engadine, houses with thick walls often have roofs of stone slabs or larch shingles. Holiday homes, unoccupied for part of the year, can conceal a leak for a long time. In Chur, apartment buildings and the old town tend to need maintenance of sheet metal work and dormers. The working season in the mountains is short, and the rules specific to each village can be obtained from the municipality.
- For a holiday home, plan a roof inspection in spring, before your stay, to spot winter damage.
- At altitude, ask for heated gutters or a suitable layout to limit ice forming along the roof edges.

Frequently asked questions
What information helps assess a roof leak in Graubünden?
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.
