View commercial renovations in BarcelonaWant to know what your renovation might cost?
We arrange a site visit to check the real condition of the property, take measurements, answer your questions and prepare a clear quote, matched to the scope of the works and broken down by item.
Prices are indicative and may vary with the condition of the property, access, existing services, the specification chosen, permits, layout changes, hidden problems or work not defined at the site visit. The final quote is always tailored and itemised.
Our approach and the way we run a project
At Obrescat we see a renovation as a whole process in which every decision counts: from the layout and the materials to coordinating the trades and keeping you informed while the work is under way. Our approach combines technical rigour, clear planning and a close working relationship. We do not make it up as we go along: we plan every phase in detail so the renovation progresses in order, avoiding delays, improvisation and surprises in the quote.
Before we start, we study your home or premises to identify critical points, opportunities for improvement and solutions that genuinely add value. We then present a coherent, honest proposal, explaining the pros and cons of each option so you can decide with confidence. During the works we assign a supervisor who oversees the site, coordinates the trades, resolves any issues and keeps you up to date with progress. Our aim is for you to go through the process with peace of mind, knowing at all times what we are doing and why. That is how we deliver well-built, functional spaces designed for real, everyday use.
Personal advice
Every project starts by listening to you. We look at how you use your space, your priorities, your style and your budget so we can offer solutions made to measure. We do not impose materials or layouts: we guide you with clear options, comparisons and recommendations based on experience, so the result really suits you. Our advice covers everything from optimising the layout of your home to choosing durable, efficient finishes.
Top-quality materials
The quality of a renovation is not only something you see; it is something you notice as the years pass. That is why we work with reliable suppliers and proven materials: hard-wearing floors, precisely made joinery, durable wall coverings, good-quality sanitaryware and safe installation systems. We explain the differences between specifications, help you choose the best option for your budget and make sure every material is properly fitted to avoid problems later.
Keeping to timelines and quotes
Planning is one of our priorities. We draw up a realistic schedule, broken down by phase, and follow it with discipline to avoid unnecessary delays. As for the quote, we present it clearly, with no ambiguous items or inflated figures. If something unexpected comes up — common enough in older buildings — we tell you straight away, explain the alternatives and agree the solution with you before going any further.
Guarantee and aftercare service
A renovation does not end on handover day: it ends once you have been enjoying the space for a while and everything works as it should. That is why we guarantee our work and provide an aftercare service to sort out any adjustment that may come up. We check the services, inspect the finishes and make sure everything is perfectly finished off. We want you to have the reassurance of a team that responds, even once the project is over.
Obrescat in the leading media
Our work and the way we approach renovations have caught the attention of local and specialist media. Through features, interviews and press mentions we have been able to explain how we work, the trends we see in the sector and why more and more clients trust us to transform their homes and businesses. These appearances reinforce our track record and also show Obrescat’s commitment to quality, transparency and continuous improvement on every project.
Why choose Obrescat for your renovation
At Obrescat we do not simply refresh spaces: we transform them with judgement, planning and genuine support throughout the process. For us a renovation is a personal project, so we work with you from the very first moment to understand your needs, your style and what you expect from the finished result. Our team combines site experience, interior design and technical management to deliver clear, well-executed solutions adapted to each home or business.
If you already know what you want, we turn it into a solid project; and if you need guidance, we help you with the layout, the materials, the finishes and every important decision. The way we work is based on transparency, dialogue and continuous follow-up, making sure everything runs in order, without surprises and with the quality you expect. Over the years we have built a track record that speaks for us and proves that renovating with professionalism, a personal touch and respect for the client is possible.
Quality and personal attention
We believe every space tells a different story, so we take the time to understand what you need before work begins. We listen, assess the condition of the property and suggest realistic alternatives that fit your budget and the way you live. That direct relationship lets us design projects that work day to day and genuinely improve your home or your business.
Experience built over time
More than a decade of renovation work has taught us how to solve the unexpected, optimise layouts, upgrade old services and turn awkward flats into functional spaces. We have worked on period homes, commercial premises, small kitchens and full comprehensive renovations, always with reliable, long-lasting results. That experience gives you the reassurance of a team that knows what to do in any situation.
We stand by what we agree
For us, respect for the client starts with delivering what was promised. We produce detailed quotes with no ambiguous items and plan the works to realistic dates that we stick to. We coordinate each trade to avoid unnecessary delays and make sure you receive clear information throughout the process. Your renovation moves forward in an orderly, controlled way, with a level of professionalism you notice from day one.

Step by step: how we manage a renovation
A renovation only works well when every phase is planned down to the last detail. At Obrescat we do not improvise: we follow a clear method that lets us progress in order, control timings and make sure every decision — from the layout to the last finishing touch — is taken with good judgement. Our technical team coordinates all the trades, checks the work as it goes and keeps you informed at every step, so you can go through the process calmly and without uncertainty.
This is the system we use to transform homes and commercial premises with solid, functional and long-lasting results.

Initial visit and advice
The first step is getting to know you and understanding what you need: how you use your space, what problems you want to solve and what style suits you. During the visit we assess the real condition of the property, the services, the structure, the ventilation and any limitations. With that information we advise you on the best options, the changes that genuinely add value and the type of renovation best suited to your home or business. It is a key stage for laying solid foundations.
Design and planning
Once we have studied the space, we put together a complete proposal: an optimised layout, the choice of materials, the finishes, lighting, storage and everything else the project needs to be coherent and practical. A good plan and a detailed quote let us anticipate every item and avoid surprises. We also arrange the necessary permits, the purchase of materials and the works schedule. Planning properly is what keeps everything running without unjustified delays.
Execution and daily supervision
Once work starts, every team knows exactly what to do and in what order. We coordinate masonry, services, joinery, heating and air conditioning and finishes so that everything fits together perfectly. We supervise the work daily, check the critical points, resolve any issues and keep you informed of progress with complete transparency. That continuous control is what guarantees a careful, long-lasting result with no snagging left over.

How to choose a renovation company in Barcelona
Choosing the right company to carry out a renovation is a key decision. It is not just about doing the work; it is about trusting a team that understands your priorities, advises you clearly and runs the project in an orderly way from the first visit to final handover.
Clear quote
The quote should be itemised, with a defined scope, clearly stated materials and no ambiguous wording.
Communication during the works
A serious company explains each phase, flags anything unexpected and keeps the client informed throughout the process.
Guarantees and paperwork
It is worth checking guarantees, insurance, permits, protection of communal areas and liability during the works.
Genuine renovation experience
Promising good finishes is not enough: look at completed projects, working method and the ability to coordinate the trades.
Permits and regulations
Licences, permits and regulations for renovating in Barcelona
Before starting a renovation it is important to know what paperwork Barcelona City Council requires. Not every job needs the same documentation: it depends on whether it affects the structure, the layout, the services, the façade or communal elements, or whether it is purely cosmetic.
At Obrescat we review each case, prepare the necessary documentation and guide you through the permits so the renovation can go ahead safely, to clear timelines and with no administrative surprises.
When do you need a minor works licence?
It usually applies to interior work that does not alter the structure or protected elements: renovating a bathroom, refitting a kitchen, changing floors, updating the services or making interior improvements. Even though the process is simpler, it is worth checking the scope before you start.
When might major works consent be needed?
If the renovation involves a significant change of layout, structural work, the façade, communal elements, extensions or a listed building, it may require a technical project and a fuller application. In these cases, planning properly avoids delays.
Managing permits and paperwork
We take care of reviewing plans and technical reports, dealing with the City Council, waste, protection of communal areas and any other requirements, so the work is carried out safely and in order.
Materials, finishes and 3D design for your renovation
The choice of materials affects the look, the durability, the maintenance and the comfort of a renovation. At Obrescat we help you choose solutions that suit your home or premises, your budget and the way the space is really used.
Flooring, wall coverings and joinery
We advise you on hard-wearing floors, wall coverings for kitchens and bathrooms, doors, wardrobes, windows and bespoke joinery. We look for a balance between design, durability and maintenance.
View parquet and flooringLighting, efficiency and comfort
We work with general, ambient and decorative lighting, along with energy-efficiency solutions, heating and air conditioning, insulation and long-lasting materials.
View heating and air conditioning3D design before work starts
When the project calls for it, we use 3D visualisations to compare layouts, materials, colours, lighting and finishes before the renovation begins.
See 3D design for renovations
Guarantees, payments and safety during your renovation
A renovation should not depend on improvisation. At Obrescat we work with clear quotes, phased payments, protection for your home or the building, coordination of the trades and aftercare once the work is done.
Detailed quote and phased payments
We provide itemised quotes with the scope of the renovation clearly defined. Payments are organised in phases according to actual progress on site, always by documented bank transfer and with an invoice.
Insurance, protection and site cleanliness
We protect communal areas, lifts, entrances, floors and furniture where appropriate. We also work with liability cover and manage waste and rubble in an orderly way.
Guarantee and aftercare service
We check the services, the finishes and the snagging before handover. Once the renovation is complete, we remain available to sort out any adjustments or issues that may appear once you are using the space.
Frequently asked questions about renovations in Barcelona
Before starting a renovation it is normal to have questions: prices, permits, guarantees, timelines or how to compare quotes. At Obrescat we want the whole process to be clear from day one, so we have gathered here the questions our clients ask most often.
What kind of renovations do you carry out in Barcelona?
We carry out renovations in Barcelona for homes, flats, kitchens, bathrooms, commercial premises, offices, painting, flooring, parquet, heating and air conditioning and building services. We also coordinate comprehensive home renovations with every trade involved.
How much does a renovation cost in Barcelona?
The price depends on the type of renovation, the square metres, the condition of the property, the services, the materials and the level of finishes. A bathroom renovation can start from around €5,500, a kitchen from around €8,000, and a standard comprehensive renovation usually falls within an approximate range of €750–1,050/m².
How is a renovation quote prepared?
First we make a site visit to inspect the property, take measurements, assess the real scope of the works and answer your questions. We then prepare a tailored, itemised quote setting out the work to be done and the specification agreed.
What permits do I need to renovate in Barcelona?
It depends on the scope of the renovation. Some interior work may only require a simple notification, while renovations involving a change of layout, structural work, the façade, communal elements or major changes may need technical documentation or a specific licence.
How long does a flat renovation take?
A partial renovation can take from a few days to several weeks. A comprehensive flat renovation usually needs between 8 and 16 weeks, depending on the floor area, the initial condition, the kitchen, the bathrooms, the services, permits, materials and the complexity of the work.
How should I compare renovation companies in Barcelona?
It is a mistake to compare the final price alone. Check what each quote includes, whether the items are clearly set out, what guarantees the company offers, how it coordinates the trades, how much experience it has and whether it carries out a site visit before quoting.
Do renovations come with a guarantee?
Yes. At Obrescat we guarantee the work we carry out and we inspect the project before handover. We also provide aftercare to sort out any adjustments or snagging that may come up once the project is finished.
Can I request a site visit?
Yes. You can contact Obrescat to request a site visit. We will look at your home or premises, assess the real condition of the space and prepare a proposal matched to the scope of the renovation.

Safe colours for renting or selling a home faster
When a home is being prepared to go on the market, the colour of the walls can matter far more than it seems. A flat with a good layout, spacious rooms or an attractive location can lose its appeal if the walls are marked, the colour combinations too strong or the tones make the

Permits for renovating commercial premises in Barcelona: what goes through works and what goes through activity
In Barcelona there are two separate applications that people confuse: the one that authorises the works and the one that authorises the business activity. We explain which ORPIMO regime applies to you depending on what you are touching, what to check about the premises before signing the lease or the transfer, who pays the technician and the fees, and how to read a quote for commercial premises so you can genuinely compare it.

Permits for renovating a flat in Barcelona: which one applies and who files it
The regime your works fall under is not decided by the cost or the square metres, but by what you touch: layout, structure, façade and whether the building is listed. We explain the three ORPIMO routes, what documentation each one requires and who files and pays for each piece of paperwork.
