The context in Chêne-Bourg
Chêne-Bourg forms a continuous urban hub on the left bank with the neighbouring municipalities and has a station on the regional network. The built fabric is dense, made up of residential buildings with shops on the ground floor, and the station area is changing considerably. Work is coordinated with the property management agencies and with town-centre traffic.
Slabs and stone in Chêne-Bourg
Concrete slabs, 2 cm porcelain stoneware or natural stone laid on pedestals, on gravel or bonded to a concrete slab.
The draining base keeps water and frost away from the surface.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in Chêne-Bourg
How long does building a terrace in Chêne-Bourg take?
One to two weeks for a forty square metre terrace, foundation included. The quote describes each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit needed for a terrace in Chêne-Bourg?
The permits needed depend on the planned structures, the land and the protections applying to the property. Before creating or changing a terrace, a path, a wall or a roof, have the procedures confirmed by your architect, your MPQ or the territory department. MS Contractor SA organises and carries out the planned work in coordination with your representative. The procedures are presented on the website of the State of Geneva, on the page applying for a building permit.
Slabs on pedestals or bonded in Chêne-Bourg?
On pedestals, the slabs can be lifted and let water through, ideal on a flat roof or a balcony. Bonded to a concrete slab, they suit garden terraces with heavy use.
Wood or composite in Chêne-Bourg?
Wood turns silver-grey and needs maintenance, composite keeps its colour and cleans with water. Both are laid on the same structure.
