Renovations, heritage and volumes

For your renovation projects in Ittigen, the RegBL figures provide vital context regarding your property. Currently, data coverage for house volume and renovation years is only partial, which limits automated estimation capabilities. Although official records indicate no heritage-protected buildings, we strongly advise contacting the municipality early to confirm permit requirements. Since the volume for the 840 recorded houses does not follow the SIA 416 standard, you will need to provide precise measurements when planning your thermal insulation or heating upgrades. Accurate site-specific data remains essential for determining the scope and budget of your renovation.

Preparing the subfloor

The existing base, whether it is a screed or old tiles, often drives the cost more than the covering itself. A level and healthy surface is essential to avoid long-term stability issues.

Depending on the current condition of your floors in Ittigen, levelling or surface preparation work may be necessary before the final installation.

It is advisable to have the quality of your subfloor evaluated by a professional to avoid any unpleasant budget surprises during the installation process and ensure a high-quality finish.

Sound insulation and property rules

It is essential to consult your building's rules before purchasing any materials.

Investing in a suitable underlay not only improves the acoustic comfort of your home but also ensures compliance with the legal and contractual requirements associated with your apartment.

Compatibility with underfloor heating

The presence of underfloor heating directly influences your choice of flooring. To optimize energy efficiency, it is recommended to choose compatible materials that have low thermal resistance. Materials like tiles or natural stone conduct heat excellently.

If you prefer wood, ensure it is specifically rated for underfloor heating to prevent warping. An incorrect choice could reduce the performance of your heating system and unnecessarily increase your energy consumption over time.

Estimating the budget for flooring replacement requires considering the cost of the material, labour, and subfloor preparation. Costs for local tradespeople in Ittigen may vary depending on the complexity of the installation.
