When does a basement need renovating?

  • Rising damp from the floor
  • Salt deposits on the walls
  • Water after heavy rain
  • Dark space that never gets used

What the basement renovation includes

  • Internal waterproofing

    A damp barrier on the walls and slab, applied from the inside.

  • Drainage and pumping

    Perimeter channels and a sump pump where the water calls for it.

  • Mechanical ventilation

    Forced extraction to refresh the air and prevent condensation.

  • Insulation and finishes

    Lined walls and an insulated floor for a dry, comfortable basement.

  • Lighting and electrics

    New circuits and lighting designed for a space without windows.

  • Fitted out for its use

    Wine cellar, gym, games room or workshop, each with the right finishes.

What changes in a properly converted basement

When the basement is part of a block, as is often the case in areas such as La Vila de Gràcia and El Camp d'en Grassot i Gràcia Nova, the perimeter walls are common elements. Before waterproofing or opening a ventilation outlet we agree it with the residents' association and work within the hours it sets.

In the basements we convert in areas such as La Salut, El Coll and Vallcarca i els Penitents, ventilation is part of the job: mechanical extraction ducted outside with a controlled air inlet. The wiring follows REBT rules for damp locations, with sealed light fittings and sockets raised off the floor.

We take rubble out in sacks, protect the route through the house and leave the basement clean with the ventilation tested. We convert basements nearby too: Eixample, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi and Horta-Guinardó.

Frequently asked questions

01

Basement renovation in Gràcia: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Gràcia, in areas such as La Vila de Gràcia, El Camp d'en Grassot i Gràcia Nova, La Salut, El Coll and Vallcarca i els Penitents, and also nearby: Eixample, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi and Horta-Guinardó. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

Does the damp need fixing before the basement is fitted out?

Always. First we find out whether the water comes from the ground, a leak or condensation, and apply the right solution. Skip that step and the finishes will end up damaged.

03

Can a basement be used as a bedroom?

For habitable use the CTE requires daylight, ventilation and a minimum ceiling height, and local planning must allow it. We check this on the visit; if it isn't possible, we suggest uses such as a gym, wine cellar or play area.
