Progress of an outdoor fit-out project

The visit allows for studying the land and its exposure before establishing a cost estimate by area. On sloped land, this step determines whether retaining work is necessary before any surface fit-out.

The preparation work of the land precedes the structure itself: earthworks, drainage if necessary, foundations for a terrace or a low wall. Finishes and plantings come last.

A standard outdoor fit-out site lasts one to three weeks, longer if the land requires significant earthworks due to its slope.

What materials for your outdoor space

Composite wood

Weather-resistant and low maintenance, it is particularly suitable for terraces exposed to the climatic variations of the region, both summer and winter.

Natural stone

It offers a durable and timeless finish, particularly suited for sloped gardens where it serves both as a covering and a structural retaining element.

Metal and aluminum

Used for fences and gates, they offer good mechanical resistance and minimal maintenance, with a wide range of aesthetic finishes and colors available.

Areas of intervention in Luxembourg City

• Muhlenbach: sloped gardens, tiered terraces
• Belair and Merl: classic residential gardens
• Cessange and Gasperich: newer plots, complete fit-outs
• Bonnevoie: small outdoor spaces to optimize

Regulations in Luxembourg

The rules vary significantly from one municipality to another in the Grand Duchy, including within the different neighborhoods of the capital. A prior check with the urban planning department avoids having to modify a project that is already well advanced due to issues of fence height or distance from property lines.

The installation of a fence, a gate, or a raised terrace may require municipal authorization, especially when the construction is visible from the public road or exceeds certain dimensions.

On sloped land, retaining works must comply with strict safety rules, sometimes requiring a prior geotechnical study depending on the height of the proposed wall.

Why choose Avenir Rénovations for your outdoor space

A successful outdoor fit-out takes the land as it is, not as one would like it to be. This is particularly true in Muhlenbach, where ignoring the natural slope of the garden almost always leads to drainage problems a few months after the completion of the work.

Expertise on difficult terrain

Our teams are accustomed to the frequently sloped terrains in Muhlenbach and the hilly neighborhoods, with technical solutions tailored to each configuration encountered on the site.

Durable materials suited to the climate

We select materials resistant to local climatic variations, between hot summers and wet winters, for a fit-out that withstands the seasons without premature degradation or excessive maintenance.

Comprehensive project support

From the study of the land to the final plantings, a single contact coordinates all the steps of your outdoor project, without any additional intermediary to manage.

Permits, sloped land and sustainable materials

The need for a permit for a terrace depends on its height and surface area: a ground-level terrace generally does not require one, unlike an elevated or large terrace. A sloped garden can be developed without major work thanks to solutions like tiered terraces or planted mounds, which allow for the use of the land without necessarily resorting to heavy and costly retaining walls. Composite wood and natural stone offer the best durability against the typical freeze-thaw cycles of the Luxembourg climate, with limited maintenance over time.

Construction time, sloped pool and property enhancement

Expect one to three weeks for a standard outdoor fit-out, more if earthworks or retaining work are necessary on a steep slope. Installing a pool in a sloped garden is still possible, but requires a more in-depth technical study than a flat terrain, often involving a leveled platform and a reinforced drainage system around the pool. A well-integrated terrace and careful landscaping are among the most profitable outdoor investments, just behind a well-maintained facade, according to feedback observed in the capital's real estate market.

Enhance your outdoor space with Avenir Rénovations

A well-thought-out outdoor space changes the use of a house during the beautiful days, an investment that is felt every year from the first rays of spring sunshine.

Our teams operate throughout Luxembourg City and its surroundings, with a free visit that takes into account the actual topography of your land before any pricing, rather than a generic estimate based on plans.

The gardens of Muhlenbach illustrate well what the topography imposes as technical constraints: a simple terrace project may require a retaining wall, suitable peripheral drainage, and sometimes a preliminary soil study, all elements that a flat terrain would never require. Anticipating these needs from the design stage avoids unexpected costs discovered during construction, once the work has already begun and the first earthworks have been completed.
