We think this is excellent. And we are not the only ones that think so: we have won a number of awards from many trade journals and their readers for the architecture of our houses. These include the major German prize for prefabricated houses, the 'Golden Cube' 2018 in the category "Green Design" with the Schwörer show house in Auggen.

Ombudsman services of QDF
Information on arbitration options for consumers
For our customers who are consumers, we offer the opportunity to call the Ombudsman services provided by QDF, the Quality Association of German Prefabricated Construction free of charge if possible disputes should arise from the contractual relationship. SchwörerHaus accepts possible decisions made by this Ombudsman services as binding.
We are not bound by this decision of the Ombudsman services unless the client initiates legal proceedings in spite of this decision.
