Legalising unlicensed building work
Architecture
The project that brings unlicensed work into line.
Architecture services
We design, calculate and build. Full service across every project stage.
We offer technical architecture and engineering services: building legalisation, certificates for the notary, cadastral reports, plot georeferencing and inspection visits, in Altea and across the rest of the Costa Blanca.
Dividing or merging plots
Architecture
Splitting a property up, or bringing several together into one, with what it takes for the Land Registry to accept it.
Description and age certificate
Land Registry & Cadastre
The document that makes your deed say what is actually built, and since when.
Cadastral Location Report for Buildings (ICUC)
Land Registry & Cadastre
The report the Spanish land registry asks for to update a deed with what is already built.
Graphic Validation Report (IVG) and plot georeferencing
Land Registry & Cadastre
The report that fixes, in coordinates, where your boundaries actually run.
Building evaluation report and the old ITE
Certificates and permits
The report a building must hold once it turns fifty: inspection, drafting and registration, all in one commission.
Energy certificate
Certificates and permits
Homes and commercial premises: surveyed on site, calculated, and filed on the regional register.
Building licence for major works
Certificates and permits
The project for work that does need a licence — building, extending, touching a protected façade — and, if you want it, the filing.
Minor works: the responsible declaration
Certificates and permits
What everyone still calls obra menor: what gets filed, what a technician signs, and when you may start.
Urban planning reports and certificates
Certificates and permits
What the local plan allows on one specific plot — and the documents the council issues to prove it.
Second occupancy certificate
Certificates and permits
The declaration that shows the home still meets the conditions it was first occupied under.
Tourist rental licence (VUT)
Certificates and permits
The two stages, in order: first whether the zone still allows it, then the registration.
Consultation with an architect
Technical services
Ask before you decide: by phone or at the office, by appointment.
Architect's visit and technical inspection
Technical services
Book a professional visit from an architect, to inspect with a trained eye and tell you what they see.
