Your project in the canton of Solothurn

The canton of Solothurn extends along the foot of the Jura and the Aare. The town of Solothurn, with its churches and Baroque houses, has an old town where getting around by vehicle is difficult. Olten, a railway hub, and Grenchen, shaped by watchmaking, have rental blocks and districts of family homes. Zuchwil and Biberist form a more residential suburban area, while Balsthal opens onto the Thal valley and its farms. In the north, Dornach lies within Basel's orbit. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can still be written in English. In the old town or for a change to a façade, it is essential to check with your municipality. Give the municipality, postcode and delivery access restrictions, especially if the building is in an old town.

  • In Solothurn's old town, say whether access is via a pedestrian street or a courtyard.
  • For a family home in Grenchen or Olten, give the year of construction and any work already carried out.
  • For a farmhouse in the Thal, describe access to the building and the parts to be renovated.

Tiling work in the canton of Solothurn

In the canton of Solothurn, the Baroque old town of Solothurn, the industrial towns at the foot of the Jura and the Jura villages form a contrasting whole. Apartment blocks built for watchmaking and industrial workers have many bathrooms to modernise, often in series. In the old town, old houses with uneven floors require levelling and careful tile layout. In the Schwarzbubenland, near Basel, family villas call for durable terraces and outdoor steps. On the heights of the Solothurn Jura, cold winters make frost-resistant tiles essential for entrances and balconies.

  • For an apartment block, choose a tile model that will remain available for a long time, so a broken piece can be replaced later.
  • On a balcony in the Solothurn Jura, ask for a drainage slope towards the outside so meltwater does not seep under the door.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose tiles for my bathroom in Solothurn?

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.
