Construction

The evolution of construction is part of human history. It evolved with us.

construction industry

From rudimentary huts where everything was done around a fireplace, to sophisticated and luxurious villas and towers of astronomical heights, there is an immense path made of constant improvement of techniques and inventions to meet the growing needs of the population.

Today, construction is a specialty that involves a lot of know-how and a lot of planning to respond to increasingly demanding and comprehensive standards, and to times and costs that can have a wide range, depending on whether we are designing the construction of houses or the construction of shopping centers, for example.

Building a villa in the country or an apartment building in the middle of a city requires totally different teams and logistics. The construction of industrial plants or offices requires totally different projects and material specificities than a luxury villa in an Algarve resort. In some cases the freedom of design and construction solutions is great, in others totally restricted and conditioned by technical norms.

Currently, the big trend is "green building" because we want cities to be more and more intelligent and therefore construction has to be more and more sustainable, with optimized solutions in terms of air conditioning and thermal insulation using, for example, the Capoto system, the mandatory use of solar panels for heating, water use, communications and even landscaping. Or we could also talk about seismic risk and how the stability of buildings can be safeguarded and improved, in accordance with a European directive that was finally enacted in Portugal.

 

This is why different digital technologies are now an integral part of the construction process. They help optimize resources (time and money), they help track the construction site precisely, but they also help you visualize the final product. The villa you idealized, the stores you want to spread around the country, the apartment building you rehabilitated.

Above all we would like to point out that cheap construction, so often hidden in the lowest price per m2 generates cold, damp and uncomfortable houses. And which often give rise to conflicts and later expenses.

We are specialists in construction and in works. In other words, we know how to do it, and we have the means that allow us to carry out the work in all its dimensions. From interior decoration to specialties and the accompaniment of suppliers.

Efficiency is our watchword when it comes to construction, but above all, what characterizes us is the great respect we have for the commitments we have made. The intended program, the agreed costs and times. 

Whether the architectural project is ours or someone else's, what matters most to us is to do it well, because we know that construction is always an undertaking of great economic and emotional value. For you who order, for us who materialize.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO BUILD A VILLA FROM SCRATCH ?

Frankly speaking there are times that do not depend on us, but on the City Councils where the construction will be located. 

As for our services, we prepare the schedule as carefully as possible, from the architectural project, to the execution of the specialty projects and the construction work

Since we work in strict collaboration with the customer, you will be aware of the entire process and all the times that we control.

DO I NEED A BUILDING PERMIT?

A building permit is required whenever you are going to build from scratch.

In the case of renovations it is mandatory if you change the facade to the outside, if you change the structure of the house/apartment/office or building, or if, for example, you are going to make another bathroom in the apartment.

CAN I PAINT JUST THE FACADES OF THE BUILDING?

Yes, but depending on the age of the building and its state of conservation we can advise going a little further and, for example, using the Capotto system (exterior thermal insulation) which, besides providing more comfort and greater savings in heating for the inhabitants, adds value to the property.
