Your project in the canton of St. Gallen
The canton of St. Gallen almost entirely surrounds the two Appenzells and stretches from Lake Constance to Lake Zurich. The city of St. Gallen is known for its old town with oriel-windowed houses and for many buildings from its textile era. Rapperswil and Jona, on the shore of Lake Zurich, combine a historic centre with newer residential districts. Wil and Gossau are busy regional centres, while in the Rhine Valley, Altstätten and Buchs lie close to the Austrian border. The Toggenburg, around Wattwil, is a hilly landscape of farms and timber chalets. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can be written in English. For an old house in a town centre, ask your municipality whether the planned work requires approval. Give the municipality and postcode and describe building access, whether the project is in town, by the lake or in the Toggenburg.
- For an oriel-windowed house in St. Gallen's old town, attach photos of the façade and windows.
- In the Toggenburg, say whether the house is isolated and how it can be reached in winter.
- On the shores of Lake Zurich or Lake Constance, describe access to the plot and the space available for materials.
Tiling work in the canton of St. Gallen
The canton of St. Gallen stretches from apartment buildings in the city of St. Gallen to houses in the Toggenburg and villas on the St. Gallen shore of Lake Zurich. In the city, older homes built on timber joists and apartment blocks have their bathrooms renovated as tenants change or during a comprehensive refurbishment. In the Rhine valley, near Altstätten, converted farms and detached houses want hard-wearing floors for cellars and laundry rooms. In the Toggenburg, snow and cold require outdoor stoneware that lasts through the winter. Renovations of kitchens open to the living room also bring continuous large-format floors.
- For an open-plan kitchen, choose the same tile as in the living room to create a continuous floor, without thresholds or a change of material.
- In a converted farmhouse in the Rhine valley, ask for low-porosity tiles for the cellar and laundry room, which often remain damp.

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