Murpf GmbH

I have been working in the timber construction industry for over 30 years. I would like to put my experience and passion to work for you.

My many years as head of timber construction at one of the largest timber construction companies in central Switzerland have given me extensive experience in the areas of conversion/renovation and new construction. I have been involved in everything from small conversions to large residential developments. This has allowed me to experience the many facets of timber construction, from special facades to apartment buildings, residential developments, renovations, and even the restoration of a 16th-century building.

Specialist areas

• Building conversions
• Renovations/extensions in timber construction
• Cost estimation in timber construction
• Tendering for timber construction work

FOR PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS

Analysis/expertise

Would you like to extend or add another story to your building, or change its facade, and would like to know what condition it is currently in?
An on-site inspection can sometimes answer many questions. A thorough condition analysis with a dossier lays the foundation for further decisions and the next steps.

Building owner consulting

Thanks to my many years of experience in timber construction, I am familiar with most building systems and construction options.
This means I can recommend exactly the right solution for your property.
A holistic view that takes several aspects into account is more valuable than a separate quote.
Do you have several quotes for the same work and are there big differences in price?
I can help you verify the quotes.

Cost estimates

Do you need a cost estimate for your attic conversion, extension, or renovation?
This is where my experience as a long-standing entrepreneur comes into play. I can provide you with a proposal including a cost estimate. I am familiar with current market prices and know what is possible and what is not.

Construction supervision

Would you like to carry out a conversion, renovation, or extension in timber construction? Are you unsure whether you can do it on your own? Then you've come to the right place.
I offer you my professional support and advice. Whether you want to do the work yourself or need help selecting contractors, I can assist you. On request, I can take on smaller project or construction management tasks for you, including coordinating individual contractors.
I have already accompanied many builders on this path and helped them achieve their dreams.

FOR ARCHITECTS & CONSTRUCTION PROFESSIONALS

Concepts

I will check the feasibility of a timber construction for you and, if necessary, determine the structural system and superstructure.
This is based on a comprehensive discussion of your ideas.
This results in a further concept for the procedure.
A thorough preliminary assessment of the condition or current situation ensures that there will be no major surprises later on.

Cost estimates

Whether it's a cost estimate or a cost quotation.
Whether for a new building, renovation, extension, or facade.
Costs are an important factor in the early stages.
When calculating costs, I compare different timber construction concepts for your project.
Based on this, I work with you to develop the most economical solution.

Preliminary dimensioning

Based on the selected supporting structure, construction system, or facade type, I will provide you with a rough preliminary dimensioning of the most important timbers and supporting components.
The calculated cross-sections serve as a basis for your further planning. They are also crucial for working out the most important details.
This gives you greater planning security right from the start.
I develop possible solutions in timber construction for your building project.
