Renovation work tailored to every situation in the canton of Basel-City

In the canton of Basel-City, about seven energy aid programs support the building envelope, heating, heat pumps, and solar energy. Your renovation work in Basel is therefore built according to your situation, which our Project Manager analyzes on-site before any cost estimation.

A home to refresh without major construction

You can achieve a comfortable interior without altering the building's structure. Kitchen, bathroom, floors, walls, and ceilings are renovated room by room, with advice from our Project Manager on the order of interventions. A purely interior renovation, carried out identically, generally does not require a building permit in the canton. The rule changes as soon as the project affects the load-bearing structure or the common areas of a condominium. Each of these items, whether related to masonry or finishes, is part of the renovation services that our company entrusts to qualified craftsmen.

A façade or roof to bring up to standard

Replacing a window identically and enlarging it do not follow the same rules. In the canton of Basel-City, a window replaced identically, without modifying the exterior appearance, is generally exempt from a permit. An enlargement or modification in a protected building, on the other hand, requires a permit. Our Project Manager checks this point before estimating the cost.

An external façade insulation, a project that also affects load-bearing walls, or a roof modification follows a stricter logic. These works change the appearance of the building and may affect regulatory distances: they generally require a permit or a control procedure. With Avenir Renovations Basel, our agency prepares the file and incorporates this administrative delay into the project schedule.

A complete energy renovation project

An efficient heating installation loses part of its technical interest if the building envelope allows heat to escape. Our Project Manager first addresses the insulation, then sizes the heating system according to the actual needs of the home. A complete energy project can combine several coordinated items:

  • insulation of façades from the outside or of the roof,
  • replacement of windows with better-insulated models,
  • installation of a heat pump instead of an old heating system,
  • installation of solar panels on the roof.

Each item is estimated separately, allowing you to stagger the work. Our Project Manager advises you on the order of interventions to address the building envelope before the heating system.

How does a renovation site proceed in Basel?

How does a renovation site proceed in Basel?

Managing several tradespeople alone alongside administrative procedures takes time and a real mastery of construction. A delay from one trade affects all others, and a late request for assistance jeopardizes funding. Our Project Manager takes over these tasks for you at every stage.

Avenir Renovations, a guaranteed single point of contact in the canton of Basel-City

The process described above relies on precise organization: one person manages your project. At Avenir Renovations Basel, we apply this multi-trade business model to every site, whether it concerns a bathroom or an entire house.

Who to notify when the tiler is waiting for the plumber to finish? With Avenir Renovations, the answer is one person: your Project Manager. They coordinate all the trades and set the order of interventions. This liaison prevents downtime between trades. You no longer have to sign multiple contracts or mediate between craftsmen who pass the responsibility for a delay. Our renovation company commits to responding to every request for a quote within 24 to 48 hours.

You maintain a clear vision of your project from the first measurement to the reception. Our Project Manager, who studied your property, also follows its execution: the choices validated at the start are not lost along the way. Our renovation company in Basel commits to respecting the budget and deadlines agreed upon with you.

Your online client space extends this follow-up: you can check the progress of the work and find every document related to the project. A guarantee covers the installation and materials for certain services, such as carpentry or painting. The craftsmen involved are qualified in their trade and carry out the work according to Swiss standards.

What is the price of renovation work in Basel?

The cost of a renovation is calculated per square meter and varies greatly from one project to another. A completely renovated bathroom and facade insulation do not involve the same trades or the same volumes of materials.

Your quote takes into account the floors and the area to be treated, as well as the actual condition of the building noted by our Project Manager during the visit. The number of trades involved also weighs in, as does the range of materials you choose. A discovery during the project, such as a more degraded structure than expected, can alter the initial estimate.

For your renovation work in Basel, our company provides a free and personalized quote, even in the case of a site visit. At Avenir Renovations, we will call you back within 48 hours after your request to clarify your project.

Is a permit always required for renovations in Switzerland?

No, not always. In the canton of Basel-City, the requirement depends on the nature of the work and what it modifies. Replacing a kitchen or bathroom with the same design usually does not require a building permit. The situation changes when the work affects a load-bearing element or the common ducts of a building. Outdoor work follows different rules.

Exterior facade insulation or roof modification generally requires a permit or a control procedure. Starting this type of work without the necessary steps can delay the entire project. For a protected building or a specific situation, the advice of a construction professional is essential before committing. With Avenir Renovations, our agency identifies these steps from the project study and prepares the necessary files.
