Attics in L'Escala: what we find under the roof
In holiday homes the attic often serves as an extra summer bedroom. We plan beds under the slope, storage in the low parts and insulation that keeps the room cool even when the house has been shut for a while (frequent in Nucli antic, Poble Sec and Les Terroges).
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.
We go up to see the attic, measure the headroom and give you a detailed written quote; a site manager coordinates the joinery, insulation and services and leaves the house clean. We also work in nearby areas: Torroella de Montgrí, Sant Pere Pescador and Viladamat.

Frequently asked questions
01Attic renovation in L'Escala: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in L'Escala, in areas such as Nucli antic, Poble Sec, Les Terroges, Riells, La Clota, Muntanya de Montgó, Sant Martí d'Empúries and Les Corts, and also nearby: Torroella de Montgrí, Sant Pere Pescador and Viladamat. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
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.
