CPlumbing in Geneva
Geneva's housing ranges from 19th century stone buildings in the Pâquis, Eaux-Vives and Plainpalais to large 1960s and 1970s blocks in Meyrin, Vernier and Onex, and detached villas along the lake in Cologny and Collonge-Bellerive. Blocked drains, leaking siphons, dripping taps and boiler problems are the most frequent jobs. The city's water comes mostly from Lake Geneva and is moderately hard, so limescale on taps, shower heads and boilers needs regular attention.
Most Geneva residents rent through a régie (property manager). Small maintenance is often for the tenant, while larger defects are the landlord's responsibility, so contact the régie first for anything significant. Connections to the public water and gas networks are reserved for installers holding a concession from SIG, Geneva's utility.
- Blocked drain or siphon
- 180 to 450 CHF
- Replace mixer tap
- 250 to 500 CHF plus tap
- Boiler descaling
- 250 to 500 CHF

Plumbing questions in Geneva
Should I call the régie or a plumber directly?
For anything beyond a minor repair, contact your régie first: it may have its own contractors and the landlord often pays for larger defects. Small maintenance like a blocked sink trap is usually yours.
Why is there so much limescale?
Geneva tap water is moderately hard. Descale shower heads and aerators regularly and have the boiler serviced to keep it efficient.
What extra fees should I expect?
Travel fees, a minimum charge and surcharges at night, weekends and on public holidays are common. VAT of 8.1 % applies. Ask for the total before the visit.
Can any plumber connect to the water or gas network?
No. Work on connections to the public network requires an installer with an SIG concession. Mention it in your request.
A leak, a blockage, no hot water?
Describe the problem in two minutes. A local plumber calls you back and agrees the price before any work.
