Customers
Satisfied customers are the foundation of our success. We want our services to bring them the greatest possible benefit. Through expert advice, we guide our customers to a tailor-made solution. This harmonizes the desired quality with the existing building fabric and the available budget.

Partners
In our dealings with architects, craftsmen, and suppliers, we attach great importance to fairness and mutual trust. We strive for long-term cooperation with our partners. We do our part to ensure that such lasting business relationships can develop.

Employees
Motivated and qualified employees are essential for providing our customers with excellent service. We value a good working atmosphere within our team. We expect our employees to show a high degree of initiative and responsibility. We promote their personal development through targeted training measures. As a training company, we help to secure the future of our profession.

Environment
An intact environment is particularly important to us. As building envelope specialists, we help to improve the energy efficiency of buildings so that our customers can reduce their heating energy consumption. Based on our experience, we recommend renovation concepts that are economical and benefit the environment. When selecting the materials used, we take into account the gray energy used in their production in our decision-making process.
 
Viewing the building envelope as a whole

Ideally, the renovation of a building envelope should be based on a concept that includes all elements (facade, roof, windows). Our proposals are always based on the latest state of the art. We attach particular importance to well-thought-out and carefully crafted implementation of the details. We align our quality standards with those of the industry.
 
 Durable and low-maintenance

Professionally covered pitched roofs offer durable and low-maintenance protection against moisture and cold. The key prerequisite for this is professional advice that first determines the customer's needs. The roof pitch, aesthetic requirements, and financial possibilities influence the right choice of materials. The choice of underlay must be tailored to the location conditions (sea level, climate) and the type of building in question. The penetration of moisture and drifting snow, as well as unwanted cohabitants such as martens or mice, is prevented by suitable construction. Clean workmanship guarantees high quality.
 
Watertight and modern

A flat roof will remain watertight for decades if it is professionally planned and technically correctly executed. As experienced building envelope specialists, we know the most suitable system for every situation. In accordance with the current state of the art, a flat roof also meets high energy requirements. Our highly trained employees ensure the flawless craftsmanship of this type of roof, which gives a building a distinctly modern look.
 
Bringing light into the darkness

Skylights are important for letting light into living spaces under the roof. Windows are the weakest element of the building envelope in terms of thermal insulation. We are happy to advise our customers on which type from our range is best suited to optimally meet their specific needs. Thanks to an extensive range of accessories, special requests regarding sun protection and darkening can also be reliably fulfilled.
 
 When roofs come to life

The specific requirements of the customer and the conditions at the property location in terms of shading and irrigation influence the composition of the green roof structure. To ensure that the green roof can fulfill its intended function optimally and permanently, we offer maintenance at appropriate intervals.
 
Careful maintenance extends the service life

Periodic cleaning extends the service life of any type of roof. Leaves, lichens, and moss promote the growth of plants that can quickly damage the structure of a roof. Our roof maintenance service also includes checking connections and transitions, putty joints, tiles, and gutters. When you sign a maintenance contract, you can be sure that your roof will be checked regularly by professionals. In addition, all maintenance and repair work on your roof will be carried out by experts.
 
Keeping the heat in and the cold out

Insulation materials help to save heating energy. When recommending an insulation material, we pay attention to the optimal price-performance ratio and the gray energy (production energy) invested in the manufacture of the material. It is also important to us that insulation materials can be recycled or disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner when their service life has expired.
 
An investment that pays off

A rear-ventilated facade is a sign of high quality, is virtually maintenance-free, and still looks well-maintained even after many years. Investing in a rear-ventilated facade increases living comfort, as excess moisture is removed from the interior of the building. This has a positive effect on the indoor climate and reduces algae growth on the exterior wall and cracking in the exterior plaster. The additional costs of investing in a rear-ventilated facade pay off when you consider that compact facades usually need to be renovated after 15 years.
 
Harness the power of the sun on your roof

Most roofs are suitable for the installation of solar systems. Solar collectors use solar energy for economical hot water production. Photovoltaic systems generate environmentally friendly solar power. Both types of systems are supported by public subsidies. We would be happy to advise you on how you can best benefit from the free power of the sun.
 
Benefit from our experience

Our expertise in all matters relating to the construction and maintenance of building envelopes is based on many years of experience and continuous training.
