Where we stop
Garnebo does not perform structural modifications, plumbing connections, or electrical work in-house, in full compliance with DM 37/2008. Where your project requires moving drains, replacing shower mixers, or adding power sockets, these activities are coordinated with certified professionals. Your quote will explicitly distinguish what Garnebo executes directly and what is executed by certified partners.
Tile and waterproofing installation. Substrate preparation. Coordination of DM 37/2008-regulated trades.
Structural work, plumbing connections, electrical work — these need certified professionals.

Materials & Quality
We prioritise first-choice gres and ceramic tiles sourced from the Sassuolo district — minimising lead times and ensuring consistent batches for larger renovations.
- 01Gres porcellanato — recommended for floors and high-moisture areas. Low porosity, stain-resistant, durable.
- 02Ceramic — suitable for wall applications where weight and budget are more sensitive.
- 03Sassuolo-district sourcing — consistent colour batches and shorter lead times for Bologna projects.
- 04We explain the practical differences for your specific rooms — slip resistance, thermal performance over underfloor heating — so you choose informed.
