The People Behind Domavero
Domavero's team combines hands-on experience in Swiss property trades with a passion for clear, honest communication. Our writers, editors, and specialist advisors each bring deep knowledge of a specific area of home maintenance — from heating engineering to structural repair and energy efficiency consulting. We believe that good home maintenance content should be written by people who have actually done the work, not just researched it.
Daniel Burkhart
Founder and Editorial Director
Daniel spent over fifteen years working as a building surveyor across the cantons of Bern and Zurich before founding Domavero. He created the platform after repeatedly seeing homeowners make preventable and expensive mistakes that better information could have avoided. He oversees all editorial standards and ensures every guide reflects real Swiss conditions.
Monika Steiner
Heating and Energy Systems Specialist
Monika holds a federal diploma in HVAC engineering and spent a decade servicing heating systems across the Swiss Mittelland. She writes and reviews all Domavero content related to boilers, heat pumps, radiators, and energy efficiency improvements. Her guides are known for their precision and practical step-by-step structure.
Luca Ferretti
Structural and Facade Advisor
Luca trained as a masonry specialist in Ticino and brings expertise in traditional and modern Swiss construction materials, render systems, and moisture management. He advises on all facade-related content and contributes guides specifically relevant to older Swiss properties and those in higher humidity zones.
