Your project in the canton of Thurgau
Thurgau runs along Lake Constance and the Rhine, with a landscape of hills, orchards and farming villages. Frauenfeld, the main town, and Weinfelden are regional centres with rental blocks, family homes and small old towns. On the lakeshore, Kreuzlingen, next to Konstanz, Arbon and Romanshorn combine urban housing, former industrial sites and residential districts. Further west, Steckborn and Diessenhofen, on the Untersee and the Rhine, have kept old houses, many of them half-timbered. Thurgau farmhouses, often surrounded by apple trees, are frequently converted into homes. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can be written in English. For a half-timbered house or an old farmhouse, it is worth asking the municipality whether particular rules apply. State the municipality and postcode, the condition of the building and the older elements you want retained during the work.
- For a half-timbered house, say whether the timber frame is exposed and should remain visible.
- To convert a farmhouse into a home, describe the area concerned and the condition of the barn.
- Near Lake Constance, mention any damp problems in cellars or walls.
Waterproofing work in the canton of Thurgau
Thurgau borders Lake Constance and the Rhine, with municipalities such as Kreuzlingen, Arbon, Romanshorn or Steckborn. Houses near the water have basements vulnerable to groundwater and high lake levels. The canton is also very agricultural, and farms around Weinfelden and Frauenfeld use pits, silos and cowsheds whose coatings must resist damp and slurry. In the towns, rental buildings and recent housing estates need watertight flat roofs, balconies and car parks. The half-timbered houses of Diessenhofen have old bases to be treated with care. For protected buildings, check with your municipality.
- For a half-timbered house, ask for the base to be treated without trapping moisture beneath the timbers.
- Near Lake Constance, say whether your basement has already been affected by flooding, so the protection can be sized accordingly.

Frequently asked questions
What existing records help assess a flat roof in Thurgau?
Provide the roof plan, earlier waterproofing invoices and any known membrane specification. Describe when water ingress occurs and where it appears indoors, using safe photographs. Ask the contractor to inspect the drainage and underlying layers; do not lift the membrane or insulation to establish their condition yourself.
Why should the cause of water ingress be assessed before coating a surface?
Water may enter through joints, drains or adjoining construction rather than the visible wet patch. Provide photographs and any records of earlier work. Ask how the substrate and interfaces are inspected before a waterproofing system is selected or local repair proposed.
What should I compare in waterproofing contractor quotes?
Compare substrate preparation, membrane or resin system, joints and drainage details. Identify insulation and the final surface finish separately. Ask how the installation is checked and which conditions must be met before application, especially where the area is occupied or exposed to weather.
How should I prepare for the waterproofing contractor visit or work?
Provide safe access and existing roof or terrace documents without lifting membranes or entering unsafe areas. Identify drains and retained features on a plan. Agree protection and the sequence with adjoining trades, leaving assessment of damaged substrates and wet insulation to the specialists.
