Planning and Design

In this initial phase, we study your commercial space, your business objectives and your budget. Our design team creates a personalised plan that includes the layout, choice of materials, lighting and any other elements specific to your project. We present you with a detailed 3D visualisation so you can see the final result before work begins.

Execution and Construction

Once the design is approved, our team of specialist tradespeople begins the renovation work according to the agreed plan. We manage all necessary permits, coordinate all the trades involved and maintain strict control of quality and deadlines. We work efficiently to minimise disruption to your business activity.

Finishing and Handover

Once construction is complete, we carry out a meticulous review of all the finishes and installations to ensure everything is perfect. We check every detail and make any necessary adjustments before the final handover. We want your new commercial space to be exactly as you envisioned it.

Materials and trends in commercial premises renovation

Sustainable and efficient spaces

Sustainability is increasingly important in commercial renovation. We work with eco-friendly materials and efficient systems to reduce energy consumption and minimise environmental impact. In addition, we design spaces that maximise natural light and ventilation, improving the well-being of workers and customers.

Licences and regulations in commercial premises renovation

Difference between minor and major works

Minor works: Cosmetic or installation changes that do not affect the structure of the building, such as painting, flooring, furniture or non-structural partitions. Generally require a minor works declaration.
Major works: Structural changes that affect load-bearing elements, external appearance or change the use of the space. Require a major works licence and, usually, a technical project signed by an architect.

The time required to complete a commercial renovation depends on the scope of work and the size of the premises. A partial renovation can take between 1 and 3 weeks, while a full renovation can take between 4 and 12 weeks. We always work to minimise disruption to your business activity.

In most cases you will need to obtain a permit from the local council before carrying out a commercial renovation, especially if the work involves structural changes, changes to the use of the space or changes to the exterior appearance. At Obrescat, we take care of all necessary permits and documentation.

Comparison: sole trader vs renovation company

Cost differences

A sole trader may apparently offer a lower price, but often lacks civil liability insurance, guarantees or the capacity to manage all the trades involved in a complex renovation. A company like Obrescat offers a comprehensive service that includes design, permit management, execution by specialist tradespeople and an after-works guarantee, providing you with greater security and peace of mind.
