Older flats in Roses: what we check first

Many older flats in areas such as Centre, L'Eixample and Quatre Camins 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.

On the walls of older flats in areas such as Santa Margarida and Salatar 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: Castelló d'Empúries, Palau-saverdera and Cadaqués.

Frequently asked questions

01

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

We work in Roses in areas such as Centre, L'Eixample, Quatre Camins, La Ciutadella, Santa Margarida, Salatar, Mas Oliva and La Garriga, and also nearby: Castelló d'Empúries, Palau-saverdera and Cadaqués.

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.
