Façade restoration in Málaga
We restore the façades of buildings and homes in Málaga: we repair damage, improve insulation and renew their appearance. As a renovation company in Málaga with our own architectural technologist, we diagnose the cause of each problem before deciding on the solution.
With more than 15 years of experience, we work for communities of owners as well as detached homes.
What façade restoration includes
Diagnosis and building inspection
Inspection of the façade’s condition, the mandatory Building Inspection (ITE) and a report with the work required.
Repairs
Cracks, falling render, corroded reinforcement, balconies and cornices: we repair the damage before it gets worse.
Waterproofing and insulation
Solutions against damp and to improve the thermal insulation of the home, which also helps keep it cool in summer.
Exterior finish
Render and paint finish using the right system for each building.
Façade restoration systems
There is no single best system for every building; we choose according to the condition of the façade, the insulation required and the budget:
- Cement render: the simplest solution, although it needs more maintenance and does not insulate.
- Single-coat mortar: a wide range of textures and colours, without a significant improvement in insulation.
- ETICS (External Thermal Insulation Composite System): insulation boards with a protective finish; a very good balance between result and cost.
- Ventilated façade: one of the most expensive options, with the best long-term results.
Community of owners and permits
The façade is a communal element, so the works need the agreement of the community of owners. They also usually require a works permit and, often, authorisation to place scaffolding on the public highway. We prepare the technical documentation, submit the applications and coordinate the works with the community.
Signs that your façade needs inspecting
- Cracks or fissures, especially if they grow or appear at corners and around windows.
- Pieces of render or cornice coming away.
- Damp patches or salt deposits inside the homes, next to the façade.
- Rust on balconies, railings or slab edges.
- Paint that bubbles or peels off in sheets.
In Málaga, the proximity of the sea and the strong sun speed up the deterioration of finishes and reinforcement. If you notice any of these signs, a timely inspection usually avoids a much bigger repair.
Frequently asked questions
When should a façade be restored?
When cracks, falling render or damp appear, or when the building inspection says so. Acting early avoids greater damage and risks to passers-by.
Can the façade improve the insulation of my home?
Yes. Systems such as ETICS or a ventilated façade improve the thermal insulation of the whole building.
Do you also carry out building inspections (ITE)?
Yes, our architectural technology team carries out the inspection and the report.
