Attics in Nou Barris: what we find under the roof
In older buildings in areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta and El Turó de la Peira the attic is often part of a top-floor flat or duplex, with exposed timber beams and an uninsulated clay-tile roof. Before designing anything we check the condition of the timber and where rain could get in.
In the attics we renovate in areas such as La Prosperitat, Verdun and Les Roquetes 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: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.

Frequently asked questions
01Attic renovation in Nou Barris: which areas do you cover?
We work in Nou Barris in areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta, El Turó de la Peira, Can Peguera, La Prosperitat, Verdun, Les Roquetes and La Guineueta, and also nearby: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.
02Can 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.
03How 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.
04What 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.
