Your project in the canton of Jura

For work in the canton of Jura, identify the property by its municipality and postcode, whether in Delémont, Porrentruy, the Franches-Montagnes, Moutier or another municipality. Describe the part of the building concerned and its current condition. If the property includes both living rooms and former farm spaces, identify which areas belong to the project instead of assuming that all parts need the same work. Give vehicle access, any narrow passage or steps, and whether the building will remain occupied. For a conversion or an exterior alteration, clarify the project-specific requirements with the municipality or competent authority and provide any existing protection or approval documents.

  • For a farmhouse in the Franches-Montagnes, specify which part (living quarters, barn, stable) is concerned.
  • Mention your current heating system, as insulation matters a great deal given the Jura winters.
  • In the old town of Porrentruy or Delémont, describe access from the street and the space available in front of the house.

Roofing work in the canton of Jura

In the Jura, long winters and the bise wind put roofs to a severe test. Around Le Noirmont, mountain farmhouses have vast, gently sloping roofs that once sheltered hay and livestock under one volume; renewing them is a major undertaking, often linked to conversion into homes. In Ajoie, around Porrentruy, village houses and buildings in the old centre keep traditional tiles that should be replaced like for like. Strong gusts can shift the verge tiles. To add dormers or change the look of a roof, first contact your Jura municipality.

  • On a farmhouse in the Franches-Montagnes, have the timber structure checked before any new roofing, as old beams have often shifted over time.
  • On roofs exposed to the bise, have every verge and ridge tile nailed or clipped.

Frequently asked questions

What should I check before a roof renovation in Jura?

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.
