Renovations, heritage and volumes

For your renovation plans in Ostermundigen, RegBL data provides essential insights. Among 649 houses, the median building volume is 495 m3, which is critical for scaling insulation or heating upgrades. Please note that volume coverage is partial, as only a limited number of buildings are measured according to SIA 416 standards. Regarding heritage protection, 109 buildings are known, with none officially recorded as protected; however, because the data coverage is incomplete, you should always consult the municipality early in your planning phase to verify the specific status and permit requirements for your property before starting any construction work.

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.
