Basements in Nou Barris: where the damp comes from
In areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta and El Turó de la Peira basements usually sit beneath older houses or under the ground floor of apartment buildings, with stone or brick walls against the soil and salt marks low down. Access is nearly always a narrow stair, so we carry materials down by hand and take rubble out in sacks.
In basements in areas such as La Prosperitat, Verdun and Les Roquetes we start by measuring moisture in the walls and slab to see whether water comes from the ground, a leak or condensation. We then apply waterproof mortar on the inner face and form a fillet where wall meets 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: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.

Frequently asked questions
01Basement renovation in Nou Barris: which areas do you cover?

02Does 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.
03Can 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.
