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.
What a light renovation includes in Hermance
Painting of all rooms, new floors or sanded parquet, bathroom and kitchen refreshed in the same position, sockets and lighting reviewed.
The walls stay where they are.
A refresh project to study
The scope of the refresh is defined with the rooms concerned, the finishes to rework and the elements to keep.
We coordinate the trades.
Between two tenants or before moving in
The work follows on in two to four weeks, in an empty home, with a schedule set in advance for property management agencies and owners.
The home is handed back clean.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in Hermance
How long does a light renovation in Hermance take?
Two to four weeks for a three-room apartment, empty home. The quote describes each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit or an architect needed in Hermance?
Simple maintenance and a renovation do not always involve the same procedures. In Geneva, leaving the structure or the layout of the home unchanged is not enough to conclude that no permit is needed. The obligations depend on the building and the nature of the work. Before starting, have your project checked by your architect, your MPQ or the department of the territory. MS Contractor SA organises and carries out the planned work in liaison with your representative. The procedures are presented on the website of the State of Geneva, on the applying for a building permit page.
Can you stay in the home in Hermance?
Yes, in most cases. We handle the rooms one by one, protect them and hand them back each evening. Water or electricity shut-offs are announced in advance.
What is the difference with a complete renovation in Hermance?
A light renovation keeps the walls, rooms and services in place and renews the finishes. A complete renovation redistributes the rooms and redoes the services, which takes more time and often requires a permit.
