The context in Gy
In the east of the canton, between Jussy and the border, Gy is among the smallest Geneva municipalities, set among fields and woods. Farms, old houses and a few villas make up most of the buildings, concentrated in the village. Projects remain modest and concern the upkeep and transformation of rural buildings.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in Gy
How long does renovating a villa roof in Gy take?
Two to four weeks depending on the surface and the insulation. The quote describes each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit needed to redo a roof in Gy?
Often yes. Changing the appearance of a facade or a roof, creating an opening or building an annex generally requires a building permit in Geneva, under the accelerated procedure for small works. Like-for-like maintenance does not require one. We tell you the procedure and prepare the useful technical elements for the file. The details of the procedures are on the website of the State of Geneva, on the applying for a building permit page.
Should you insulate at the same time in Gy?
Yes, renovating the roof covering is the right time to insulate from the outside without touching the attic, and the canton subsidises this insulation.
Do you handle leaks in Gy?
Yes, for leaks, tiles to replace and storm repairs, with an appointment set quickly.
