Preparing timber framing work in Geneva
Before starting the work, it helps to examine the existing structure, the access to the worksite and the work to coordinate with the roof covering, sheet metal work or insulation. This first discussion clarifies whether the project concerns a new building, a roof modification, strengthening or the replacement of elements. When a building permit or architect follow-up is needed, the procedure is defined before the worksite starts.
