The context in Cartigny
Perched above a bend of the Rhône bordered by a nature reserve, Cartigny belongs to the Champagne genevoise. Its old centre, made up of grouped winegrowers’ houses and farms, is carefully preserved, while vines and crops occupy the surroundings. Narrow lanes and stone walls characterise the work on site.

High-pressure cleaning, crack repairs, scraped or floated finishing render, mineral or siloxane paint.
The colours are approved with the municipality if necessary.
External wall insulation
Insulating panels glued and anchored, reinforcement mesh, finishing render and new window sills for an insulated facade.
The canton subsidises this insulation.
Repairs and concrete
Reworking of concrete spalls, rebar treatment, plinths and balconies.
The sheet metal work is adapted to the new thickness.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in Cartigny
How long does renovating a villa facade in Cartigny take?
Three to six weeks depending on the surface and the insulation, scaffolding included. In the quote, you will find each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit needed to renovate a facade in Cartigny?
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 explain the procedure to you 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.
Can a villa facade be insulated in Cartigny?
Yes, with external insulation under render, a permit under the accelerated procedure and a cantonal subsidy.
Which paint for a facade in Cartigny?
A mineral or siloxane paint that lets the render breathe and resists rain, in a colour that suits the neighbourhood.
