Layout changes in Barcelona

Our process for executing distribution changes within integral reforms is meticulously structured to ensure efficiency and exceptional results. It begins with an initial consultation and detailed assessment, typically taking 1-2 hours, where we discuss your vision, budget, and specific requirements. Following this, we move to the design and planning phase, which involves developing architectural plans and 3D renderings, usually spanning 2-4 weeks, including obtaining necessary municipal permits from the Ajuntament de Barcelona. Once designs are approved and permits secured, the demolition and structural work commences. This crucial stage, involving the careful removal of existing structures and any new load-bearing elements, can take 3-8 weeks depending on complexity. Finally, the finishing and installation phase, where new walls are constructed, electrical and plumbing systems are adapted, and all final touches are applied, typically requires 4-12 weeks. Throughout, we maintain transparent communication and rigorous quality control.

For distribution changes, the choice of materials is critical for both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. We frequently utilise plasterboard (Pladur) for non-load-bearing partitions, offering flexibility and excellent finish quality. For more robust or sound-insulating requirements, we might opt for traditional brick and mortar. Structural steel beams and reinforced concrete are employed when creating larger open spaces by removing load-bearing walls, ensuring the building's stability. In terms of brands, we trust manufacturers like Knauf for plasterboard systems, Sika for high-performance mortars and sealants, and Rockwool for acoustic and thermal insulation. For final finishes, we often recommend Porcelanosa for high-quality floor and wall tiles, and Simon for electrical mechanisms, ensuring durability and a modern aesthetic throughout the renovated space.
