From loft to room: how we go about it

In older buildings in areas such as Sant Andreu and La Trinitat Vella 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 attics in areas such as La Sagrera, Navas and El Congrés i els Indians we use the low areas for made-to-measure cupboards and drawers under the slope, and adapt the staircase so it is easy to climb. Sockets, lighting and air-conditioning pre-installation run inside the lining, with no visible cables.

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: Nou Barris, Horta-Guinardó and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions

01

Attic renovation in Sant Andreu: which areas do you cover?

We work in Sant Andreu in areas such as Sant Andreu, La Trinitat Vella, La Sagrera, Navas, El Congrés i els Indians, El Bon Pastor and Baró de Viver, and also nearby: Nou Barris, Horta-Guinardó and Sant Martí.

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.
