No account creation required. Your request is forwarded immediately to partner tradespeople in your area.

2

Match with a local tradesperson

Within 24 working hours, a qualified roofing professional based in Lausanne or a nearby commune in the canton of Vaud contacts you to arrange a visit. Geographic proximity is not coincidental: it reduces the travel costs built into your quote and makes follow-up visits easier after the works are complete.

3

Accurate quote tailored to your situation

After the site visit, the tradesperson prepares a personalised quote that takes into account the specific features of your property, your aesthetic preferences and any regulatory constraints in Lausanne. Prices are stated in CHF with labour and materials clearly separated. The applicable VAT rate (7.7% for new construction, 2.5% or 7.7% depending on the type of renovation) is shown.

4

Works and real-time communication

The project starts on the date agreed in the quote. The tradesperson respects the working hours permitted under the local regulations of Lausanne and notifies you promptly of any schedule change. Any additional or modified work is always covered by a written amendment signed before execution — no surprise invoices at the end of the job.

5

Handover, cleaning and document pack

On completion, the tradesperson fully cleans the site and removes waste through the regulated disposal channels of the canton of Vaud. You receive the full document pack: detailed invoice, compliance certificates, material data sheets and maintenance guides. These documents are valuable for your insurers and in the event of a future property sale.

Budget and financing — Roofing in Lausanne

Estimating the budget for a roofing project in Lausanne without a proper quote is difficult, but a few benchmarks help. Rates in the canton of Vaud reflect high living costs and social charges: a qualified tradesperson bills between 168 and 392 CHF/m² depending on complexity and materials. Beyond the core cost, factor in any ancillary expenses — removal of existing installations, connections, municipal permits. To finance your works, several options are available: maintenance and repair costs are tax-deductible in the year of completion, and it is sometimes worth spreading major works across two tax years to optimise the deduction. Consult your accountant before planning major works in Lausanne — Swiss property taxation offers genuine optimisation opportunities.

Regulations and standards — Roofing in the canton of Vaud

Regulatory compliance for your roofing work in Lausanne is not merely an administrative formality: it directly determines your building insurance coverage and your property's value in any future transaction. Among the key standards to know: SIA 118 (construction works), SIA 180 (thermal protection) and SIA 261 (actions on structures) define the benchmarks tradespeople must meet. AEAI fire protection requirements apply to every building in the canton of Vaud, regardless of the scale of the works. For energy retrofits, the Minergie label is the reference standard in French-speaking Switzerland and unlocks the best Building Programme subsidies. Finally, compliance with the sector's collective employment agreements (CCT) protects you as the client: a tradesperson who does not comply risks inspections and exposes you to the risks of undeclared subcontracting in Lausanne.
