Attics in Horta-Guinardó: what we find under the roof

In areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró many roof spaces are in apartment buildings, where the roof is shared property. We work from inside wherever possible, agree any work on the roof itself with the residents' association and carry insulation up the stairs in packs.

In the attics we renovate in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera we start with the structure: we inspect rafters, purlins and bearings, treat the timber against insects and fungi and strengthen it where needed. Only once the timber is sound do we move on to insulation.

The itemised quote follows the visit; while the work is under way we protect the stairs and floors and clear debris every day. We also renovate attics nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions

01

Attic renovation in Horta-Guinardó: which areas do you cover?

We work in Horta-Guinardó in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó, Can Baró, El Carmel, La Teixonera, Horta, La Clota and La Font d'en Fargues, and also nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

02

Can timber beams be treated without removing them?

In most cases, yes. If the core of the timber is sound, we treat it for woodworm and fungi and reinforce the weak members. We only replace those that have lost load-bearing capacity.

03

How do you keep an attic cool?

With good roof insulation, cross ventilation between roof windows and solar shading on them. On the visit we check how much insulation your roof can take.

04

What headroom does an attic need to count as habitable?

The CTE and local by-laws set minimum heights for living areas. We measure the attic and show you which floor area counts as habitable and which is better used for storage.
