In brief

MS Contractor SA renovates and repairs roofs in Hermance on villas, buildings and annexes. Tile or slate roofing, roof underlay, insulation, flat roofs with waterproofing, roof windows, leak repairs, replacement of individual tiles and cleaning are carried out with scaffolding and protection.

The context in Hermance

Hermance, the last Geneva municipality on the left bank before the border, stands out for its medieval town on the lake, with its tower, its harbour and its beach. The old centre is strictly protected, which closely frames facades, roofs and joinery. Around it, the villas and the agricultural slope offer more ordinary worksite conditions.

Renovating a roof in Hermance

Removal of the old covering, roof underlay, battens, insulation between rafters and new tile or slate covering.

The sheet metal work is replaced at the same time.

Bituminous or synthetic waterproofing, insulation, protection with gravel or slabs, outlets and upstands.

Green roofs are possible.

Repairs and maintenance

Frequently asked questions

Your questions in Hermance

How long does renovating a villa roof in Hermance take?

Two to four weeks depending on the surface and the insulation. The quote details the items and the planned duration and specifies what is not included.

Is a permit needed to redo a roof in Hermance?

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. The procedure is explained to you and we 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 Hermance?

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 Hermance?

Yes, for leaks, tiles to replace and storm repairs, with an appointment set quickly.
