Construction project management in Soral
Planning building work? Apartment, house or building renovation, a new storey or a roof extension, running the project is our job.
Planning building work in Soral, a municipality of 934 residents where six residential buildings in ten are single-family houses? HMG Construction Management SA takes care of it. The firm draws up the plans, files the permit application as a registered MPQ agent, works out the cost, appoints the contractors and manages the site.
What gets renovated in Soral?
The OCSTAT profile for Soral gives 934 residents at the end of 2025, 294 hectares and a density of 317 people per square kilometre. The municipality has existed since 1850. The cantonal table of buildings shows 199 residential buildings there at 31 December 2025, made up of 120 single-family houses and 79 buildings with several dwellings.
Three generations of construction share this stock. There are 69 buildings from before 1946, more than one in three, and 40 put up after 2000, one in five. The rest fall in between. Requests therefore range from restoring an old house to adapting a recent one, by way of extending a family home that has become too small.
For a municipal matter, the official Soral website (in French) lists the relevant contacts.
Permits in Geneva
Before an extension is drawn up, the authorities can be consulted through a preliminary application (DP, demande préalable). They reply on the siting, intended use, envelope, volume and access of the project. The cantonal page on permit types presents this application alongside the fast-track procedure and the full application.
The file is then prepared online on the AC-Démat platform. Our guide to building permits and procedures in Geneva helps you choose the right procedure for the scale of the work.

How HMG runs your project in Soral
An owner in Soral can come to HMG in two ways. The first is to entrust it with the whole project, from the plans and the permit application to final acceptance. The second suits those who already have an architect. The architect designs the scheme and obtains the permit, and HMG takes over the file for the build, in collaboration with them.
In a small municipality, a house project is won or lost in the preparation. The firm estimates the cost before tendering, shows you the quotes side by side and sets a programme the contractors sign up to. It then manages the work to SIA standards, writes the minutes of site meetings and checks the invoices. Because HMG has no financial tie to any contractor, its view of the quotes stays impartial.

Frequently asked questions
How many single-family houses are there in Soral?
OCSTAT records 120 at 31 December 2025, out of 199 residential buildings. The other 79 buildings hold several dwellings. House renovation and extension are therefore the most likely requests.
Can I extend my house in Soral?
It depends on the plot and the rules that apply to it. A preliminary application gets you an answer from the authorities on siting, envelope and volume before you commit to full design work. The firm can prepare it.
Does the firm work with my architect?
Yes. If an architect has designed your project and obtained the permit, the firm takes over the file for construction and works with them. The architect remains a partner throughout the build.
