Your project in the canton of Uri
For work in Uri, give the municipality, postcode and delivery route to the property. Mention any current access restriction, vehicle size limit or section where materials must be carried by hand. For roof or façade work, describe the height, orientation, existing damage and any exposure already observed at the site. Provide photographs and available plans so the contractor can assess equipment and access. If the project changes the exterior or adds space, include the planning information you already have. Scheduling should reflect the proposed work, site conditions and current access.
- In Andermatt or at altitude, state the period during which outdoor work is realistic.
- For a roof exposed to the föhn, describe the type of roofing and its age.
- If your house is on a mountain road, describe access for a delivery lorry.
Tree care and pruning in the canton of Uri
In the canton of Uri, trees grow in a narrow valley where the foehn often blows hard. On the Reuss plain, old houses and farms shelter behind walnuts, limes and fruit trees that must be lightened regularly to reduce wind resistance. By the lake, in Flüelen, lakeside properties have willows and conifers exposed to storms. Higher up, towards Andermatt, chalets and holiday homes are bordered by spruces and larches that carry heavy loads of snow. Sloping ground and limited access often mean climbing rather than using an aerial platform. For a tree beside a road or on an embankment, seek the municipality's opinion before taking action.
- In the Reuss valley, have your walnuts checked after every strong episode of foehn, even if no branches are on the ground.
- For a high-altitude chalet, plan the work as soon as the snow melts, when winter damage is visible and access is restored.

Frequently asked questions
How is a tree felled safely in Uri?
The tree surgeon first assesses the tree's condition, lean and surroundings. Depending on the space available, the tree is felled in one piece or dismantled section by section with ropes. Ask whether the stump will be ground out and whether the wood and branches will be taken away.
What information helps assess a tree near a building?
Provide photographs from a safe distance showing the tree and its surroundings, and describe recent branch loss or changes in its condition. Mention nearby structures, paths and overhead lines. Do not climb or cut branches yourself to inspect the problem.
What should I compare in tree surgeon and tree removal quotes?
Compare the pruning or removal method, site protection and handling of branches and timber. State whether stump work is included. Ask who checks any applicable tree-protection requirements and how access for machinery and public or shared paths will be managed.
How should I prepare for the tree surgeon and tree removal visit or work?
Keep people away from unstable limbs and give the tree specialist safe access details. Identify boundaries and objects that need protection from photographs or a plan. Discuss work near shared property with the relevant owner before authorising the intervention.
