The context in the city of Geneva

Geneva, the central city of the canton, spreads out on both sides of the harbour and the Rhône, from the Old Town to the dense Pâquis, Eaux-Vives, Plainpalais, Champel and Servette districts. Residential buildings, often old, managed by property management agencies and subject to heritage rules, dominate the built fabric. Traffic, parking for machinery and use of public land shape every worksite.

Replacing pipes in the city of Geneva

Excavation with a digger, removal of the old pipes, new PVC or PE pipes with inspection chambers and connection to the municipal network.

The ground and surfaces are made good.

Separating the systems and drainage

Separation of wastewater and rainwater as required by the municipalities, foundation drainage, soakaways and retention.

The plans are supplied for the municipal file.
