Your project in the canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden
At the foot of the Alpstein, Appenzell Innerrhoden is a landscape of green hills, scattered farmhouses and villages with strong character. The village of Appenzell is famous for its timber houses with brightly painted façades, while Gonten, Schwende and Weissbad have more dispersed settlements, often on sloping ground. The Oberegg enclave, closer to the Rhine Valley, combines traditional houses with more recent buildings. Many properties are old, with timber structures that call for specialist skills when it comes to insulation, windows or woodwork. The canton is German-speaking, yet your request can be written in English. For any project affecting the outside of a traditional Appenzell house, check with your municipality. State the village, postcode and width of the access road if the house is on a slope or outside the village.
- For a timber house with painted façades, attach photos of the exterior so that tradespeople can assess the work.
- If your farmhouse is isolated, describe the access road and how passable it is in winter.
- Give the approximate age of the building, as insulation methods differ for old timber houses.
Tiling work in the canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden
In Appenzell Innerrhoden, tiling mostly finds its way into timber houses: bathrooms fitted into old farmhouses, renovated kitchens and entrance halls exposed to snow and mud. Laying tiles on a timber floor requires a suitable underlay, as the structure moves with humidity and the seasons. In the village of Appenzell, many older homes gain a walk-in shower during an interior conversion. Around Weissbad, guesthouses take advantage of quieter tourist periods to modernise their bathrooms. For entrance floors, slip-resistant porcelain stoneware copes well with wet shoes and gravel brought in from outside, and remains easy to clean.
- On a timber farmhouse floor, ask for an uncoupling membrane to prevent the tiles from cracking when the wood moves.
- Schedule bathroom work in a guesthouse between the winter and summer seasons, when the rooms are empty.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose tiles for my bathroom in Appenzell Innerrhoden?
Choose non-slip tiles for the floor and consider easy-to-clean surfaces for the shower area. Large formats reduce the number of joints but require a very flat substrate. Ask the tiler for advice on waterproofing and on the grout colour.
Why does a wet-area tiling project need more than tile selection?
The base, waterproofing and junctions around drains or fixtures affect the completed wet area. Specify the room's use and the layout, then ask how preparation and sealing are handled. Tile appearance alone does not establish the suitability of the whole installation.
What should I compare in tiler quotes?
Compare base preparation, waterproofing where needed, tile supply, laying and joints. Check cuts, edges, thresholds and work around fittings. Ensure the same tile format and finish are specified, and ask which tasks are coordinated with plumbing or other adjoining work.
How should I prepare for the tiler visit or work?
Keep tile specifications and room plans ready and identify items to retain. Agree grout colour and edge details before laying. Discuss access and the conditions for using the finished surfaces with the installer, based on the selected products and actual work sequence.
