The area

Why Poble Sec is not the Eixample

Narrow streets and real lifts

Logistics come first. We plan storage, skips and hours with the community before demolition. A blocked access costs more than a tiling upgrade.

1920–1960 buildings

Original slabs, partitions and services. What stays and what is replaced is a structural call, not a mood board.

Neighbour-to-neighbour acoustics

High density. Elastic bands and linings when the brief needs them. See acoustic insulation.

Ciutat Vella / Eixample edge

The permit is not the same on every plot. We settle it in the briefing, not halfway through strip-out.

Method

How we run it

Visit, survey of services, itemised budget, permit and build with a digital panel. If there is an interior designer, we join as the executing contractor. Related: Gràcia (similar old-stock buildings) and Barcelona permits 2026.

FAQ

Common questions in Poble Sec & Sant Antoni

What permit is needed?

If structure and façade stay untouched, a prior communication or minor works filing is often enough. Redistribution or common elements raise the procedure. We define it from the actual building, not a template.

Can the kitchen open onto the living room?

In most flats yes, unless it is a load-bearing wall or a beam is required. That is decided on a site visit, not in a form.

How long does it take?

10–16 weeks for 70–90 m², depending on the community and the scope of services.
