Tiling work in the canton of Bern
In the canton of Bern, tilers encounter very diverse situations: older flats in Bern's old town, villas in the suburbs, chalets in the Bernese Oberland and watchmakers' houses in the Bernese Jura. Under Bern's arcades, work takes place in narrow buildings where bringing materials up the stairwell must be organised in advance. In Thun and on the shores of the Oberland lakes, holiday homes and hotels renovate their bathrooms with easy-care tiles. When a property management company runs the building, colours and formats are often set by the owner. In the mountains, entrance floors and cellars require tiles that resist frost and de-icing salt.
- In an old town building, check the width of the staircase with the tiler before ordering large ceramic slabs.
- For the entrance of a chalet in the Oberland, choose a dark, slip-resistant porcelain stoneware that hides traces of melted snow and grit.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose tiles for my bathroom in Bern?
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.
