The context in the city of Geneva
Geneva, the central city of the canton, spreads out on both sides of the harbour and the Rhône, from the Old Town to the dense Pâquis, Eaux-Vives, Plainpalais, Champel and Servette districts. Residential buildings, often old, managed by property management agencies and subject to heritage rules, dominate the built fabric. Traffic, parking for machinery and use of public land shape every worksite.
What a light renovation includes in the city of Geneva
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 the city of Geneva
How long does a light renovation in the city of Geneva take?
Two to four weeks for a three-room apartment, empty home. The quote details the items and the planned duration and specifies what is not included.
Is a permit or an architect needed in the city of Geneva?
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. In agreement with your representative, MS Contractor SA organises and carries out the planned work. 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 the city of Geneva?
Yes, in most cases. The rooms are worked on one by one and handed back each evening after protection. We announce water or electricity shut-offs in advance.
What is the difference with a complete renovation in the city of Geneva?
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.
