Estavayer's housing stock in figures

The federal building register lists 2'495 residential buildings with 5'381 dwellings in Estavayer. 49% were built before 1980, before serious insulation standards, and 34% are still heated with oil or gas.

Only 2.8% of residential buildings in Estavayer report a solar thermal system in the register, so most roofs are still free. Photovoltaics are not recorded there; check the solar cadastre for your roof.

Renovations, heritage and volumes

For renovation planning in Estavayer, the federal building register offers critical insights. With 167 buildings indexed regarding heritage status, including 1 protected structure, you must consult municipal authorities early regarding permits. The median house volume is 893 m3, which is vital for scaling insulation or heating system upgrades. Please note that data coverage is partial, as only 13 of the 1772 houses have volumes measured according to the SIA 416 standard. Additionally, renovation years remain unrecorded for the entire municipal building stock, meaning this specific historical data is unavailable for your project assessment.
