The context in Laconnex
Laconnex, a small village of the Champagne genevoise, is surrounded by crops and borders a nature reserve popular with walkers. The calm and the space available make the work easier, within the limits of the protected agricultural setting.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in Laconnex
How long does building a terrace in Laconnex take?
One to two weeks for a forty square metre terrace, foundation included. In the quote, you will find each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit needed for a terrace in Laconnex?
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. The planned work is organised and carried out by MS Contractor SA 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 Laconnex?
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 Laconnex?
Wood turns silver-grey and needs maintenance, composite keeps its colour and cleans with water. Both are laid on the same structure.
