Renovating a flat with history in Vilafranca del Penedès
Older flats in areas such as Centre Vila, La Barceloneta and Molí d'en Rovira often hide settlement cracks, reed-lath ceilings and wiring stapled along the wall surface. We assess each crack before covering it and remove damaged lath ceilings to fit a new one.
On the walls of older flats in areas such as L'Espirall, La Girada and Sant Julià 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: Santa Margarida i els Monjos, Olèrdola and La Granada.

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.

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.
