Your project in the canton of Geneva
For a project in Geneva, give the municipality and postcode, the rooms or building elements involved and the outcome you want. Describe the actual access: floor, lift, vehicle approach, parking and space for deliveries. Say whether the home or business premises will remain in use during the work. In a rented property or condominium, identify which areas are private and which are shared, and who coordinates decisions about them. If the project changes the exterior or concerns a protected building, check the applicable requirements with the competent authority before starting. Photos, existing plans and any approval documents already available help define the work without assumptions about a neighbourhood’s buildings.
- In a rental building or condominium, say whether the property management company or the co-owners have already given their agreement.
- For a flat in town, give the floor, whether there is a lift and what parking is available.
- For a villa in the Geneva countryside, describe access to the garden if machinery needs to get in.
Roofing work in the canton of Geneva
In Geneva, a large share of roofing work concerns rental buildings and condominiums, where the property management company or administrator organises the works and keeps residents informed. In the Old Town, old tiles, dormers and copper gutters are repaired with respect for the historic character. The municipalities on the left bank, such as Cologny, have many villas whose roofs are often renovated at the same time as the loft insulation. In Vernier and Meyrin, the large housing estates mainly have flat roofs with waterproofing and green planting. Any visible alteration should be prepared with the relevant Geneva municipality before work starts.
- In a condominium, have the roofing project approved at the owners' meeting before placing the order, so that every owner knows how the works will proceed.
- On a green flat roof, ask for the outlets and waterproofing upstands to be checked every season.

Frequently asked questions
What should I check before a roof renovation in Geneva?
Look for signs of wear such as broken tiles, moss, leaks or damp patches in the attic. Consider improving the roof insulation at the same time. Ask the roofer how the site will be secured and how the house will be protected from rain during the work.
How can roof condition be described without climbing onto it?
Use available roof documents and photographs taken from the ground or a safe interior position. Note visible broken tiles, moisture or recent storm damage. Ask the roofer to inspect the covering and underlying layers; do not walk on the roof to establish the scope yourself.
What should I compare in roofer quotes?
Compare covering, underlay, battens and roof details against the same area. Clarify access equipment, waste removal and temporary protection from weather. Identify roof windows, insulation and sheet metal work separately, and ask how adjoining trades and retained parts are coordinated.
How should I prepare for the roofer visit or work?
Provide attic access information and earlier roofing records. Explain occupied areas and external restrictions affecting equipment. Agree how the building will be protected during opening of the roof, keeping occupants away from unsafe water damage and leaving roof access to the work team.
