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.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in Hermance
How long does insulating an attic in Hermance take?
Two to five days depending on the surface and the access. In the quote, you will find each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit needed to insulate in Hermance?
No for interior insulation. Exterior insulation of a facade or roof changes the appearance and requires a permit under the accelerated procedure, which we prepare with you. The details of the procedures are on the website of the State of Geneva, on the applying for a building permit page.
Which insulation should you choose in Hermance?
Mineral wool for attics and linings, wood fibre for roofs in renovation, polystyrene or rock wool for facades. The choice depends on the substrate and the budget.
Are there subsidies in Hermance?
Yes, the canton of Geneva subsidises the insulation of roofs, facades and floors. We explain the procedures to you before the work.
