Older flats in Olot: what we check first

In areas such as Vila Vella and Eixample Malagrida terraced town houses sit alongside flats in buildings from before the 1960s. They usually have timber-beam or brick-vault floors, which we check before loading them with new screeds or partitions.

On the walls of older flats in areas such as Sant Miquel, Bonavista and Pla de Dalt we strip loose plaster back to a firm base, stitch cracks with mesh and replaster. Damaged cornices are repaired in plaster rather than replaced.

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: Sant Joan les Fonts, Santa Pau and La Vall d'en Bas.

Frequently asked questions

01

Renovation of older flats in Olot: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Olot, in areas such as Vila Vella, Eixample Malagrida, Sant Miquel, Bonavista, Pla de Dalt, Sant Roc, Sant Cristòfol les Fonts and Batet de la Serra, and also nearby: Sant Joan les Fonts, Santa Pau and La Vall d'en Bas. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

Can 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.

03

What 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.
