Renovations, heritage and volumes

For your renovation projects in Cham, these federal building register figures are vital. Heritage protection affects 496 known buildings, making early communication with the municipality for permits essential, while 1312 buildings are not classified. With a median volume of 928 m3 for the 803 houses measured according to the SIA 416 standard, you can better plan the scale of your insulation or heating works. Note that data coverage is partial, as only 3 buildings are precisely measured using this specific standard, with the remainder relying on other methods or being listed as unknown.

Tips before you start

  • Insulating the roof together with the covering is often eligible for the Buildings Programme.
  • Existing solar panels must be removed and refitted: budget for it.
  • At altitude, snow loads and frost influence material choice.
