Older flats in L'Escala: what we check first
Many older flats in areas such as Nucli antic, Poble Sec and Les Terroges were holiday homes and have stood closed for years: damp, plaster coming away and wiring never updated. We repair the walls with lime mortars and renew the electrics to REBT standards.
In older flats in areas such as Riells, La Clota and Muntanya de Montgó we replace lead and iron with multilayer pipe from the meter, with new waste pipes down to the soil stack. The electrics are redone completely: cabling, consumer unit and earthing to REBT.
On the visit we survey the flat and then send a detailed written quote; the site manager protects what is being kept and leaves everything clean. We also renovate in nearby areas: Torroella de Montgrí, Sant Pere Pescador and Viladamat.

Frequently asked questions
01Renovation of older flats 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 the original encaustic tile floor be kept?
In many cases, yes. We assess it during the visit: if the tiles are sound they are cleaned, loose ones are relaid and the floor is polished; if not, they can be reused in a single room.
03What happens if surprises turn up when walls or ceilings are opened?
It is common in an older flat. We check everything visible before quoting and, if something hidden appears, such as a damaged beam, we show it to you and add it to the written quote before carrying on.
