We regularly renovate apartments, residential towers and homes along the Fuengirola and Los Boliches seafront, focused on installation upgrades, holiday-let refurbishments and replacement of finishes worn out by intensive use.
Much of Fuengirola was built during the tourism boom of the 1970s and 1980s. Original apartments often keep the carpentry, wiring and kitchens from that era, all of which need full renewal to match current use.
Fuengirola is a very dense city, with a housing stock dominated by mid-century residential blocks. Our most common interventions here find sub-standard electrical installations, original plumbing risers, aluminium carpentry without thermal break and closed kitchens that owners want to open up towards the living area.
Projects aimed at long-term or holiday rental require a balance of cost, durability and appearance that is profitable for the owner. We tune quality levels and timings to that scenario without giving up the technical level of the installation.
Most requested services in the city's apartments and residential towers.
Layout, installation upgrades and finish renewal in 1970s–80s apartments on first and second sea line.
Partition removal, structural reinforcement if it is load-bearing, custom cabinetry and worktops for intensive use.
Anti-slip flush tray, tempered-glass screen and a full plumbing renewal.
New consumer unit, full rewiring, LED points and ICP sized for real use. Official certificate included.
Noise-reduced multilayer pipework, dwelling-side riser replacement and high-efficiency water heaters or boilers.
New windows and balcony doors with thermal break and low-e glass for energy saving and acoustic insulation.
The town is dominated by mid-rise apartment buildings along the coast, which means community coordination, lift logistics and acoustic insulation sit at the centre of every project.
The coastal density of Fuengirola is split into very different fronts. Each sub-area calls for its own technical and logistical approach.
1970s-80s blocks with direct salt exposure, degraded carpentry and terraces that need waterproofing.
Settled residential area with one- or two-bedroom apartments used both as primary residence and seasonal letting.
Sea-facing towers and stepped blocks with duplexes and penthouses; priority on anti-corrosion hardware and acoustic insulation.
Holiday-let flats and second homes with works windows tightened to the booking calendar.
Gated developments with internal rules; coordination with the community for access and shared-area use.
Mixed-use buildings on streets with loading restrictions and very active communities of owners.
The way we size materials, installations and timings changes completely when the apartment will be used as a primary residence or as a holiday let. That decision drives the whole specification.
A renovation designed for year-round use: reinforced thermal and acoustic insulation, comfortable finishes and climate control sized for both winter and summer. The owner can accept a slightly longer works programme in exchange for quality and comfort.
Renovation optimised for tenant rotation: hard-wearing materials, easy maintenance and fast replacement parts. Works fit between bookings, with milestones locked before the high season to protect the owner's operation.
Proximity to the sea accelerates wear on carpentry, fittings and external finishes; marine-grade profiles and hardware are advisable.
In holiday-let homes, works must fit the booking calendar; it is sensible to lock milestones with buffer before the high season.
Many communities regulate working hours, lift use and waste disposal; in summer additional restrictions often apply that shape the works plan.
Vertical density means access, landing and lift protection must be planned, and waste removal scheduled outside the busiest times.
Working in Fuengirola means short calendars, active communities and intensive use. Our apartment process follows five steps to lock dates and avoid surprises in the final invoice.
We visit the apartment, review existing installations and the building situation, and listen to the intended use (primary or rental) to define the real scope.
We prepare a quote broken down into chapters and line items, with specific finishes (worktop, taps, flooring) to avoid opaque comparisons.
We handle prior communication or licence depending on scope and present the schedule to the building administration to respect hours and access.
The coordinated team enters, protects common access, removes waste in agreed slots and publishes weekly progress milestones.
We hand over the home with electrical and, where relevant, plumbing certificates, plus a final walkthrough with the owner before the first stay.
A few blocks inland, lower buildings and older communities shift the renovation priorities toward building shell, floor levels and heating rather than lift and seafront exposure.
We cover the whole city of Fuengirola and the neighbouring residential areas already listed in our coverage.
The housing stock in Fuengirola, closely tied to the tourism boom of the 1960s to 1980s, now coexists with a second use cycle in which the apartment serves both as a primary residence and as seasonal letting. Renovating well in this area means first diagnosing the real state of the building (downpipes, risers, electrical panels, external carpentry) before deciding scope, because very often what started as a cosmetic refresh pulls in a full installation renewal.
Proximity to the sea along the seafront and in Los Boliches accelerates wear on carpentry, hardware and external paint. In these locations marine-grade profiles, corrosion-resistant hardware and finishes designed for high relative humidity should be factored in. In inland zones like Las Lagunas or Reserva del Higuerón the exposure is lower and the material palette broadens, but construction noise and community life remain key planning factors.
Operationally, the calendar is almost always the most sensitive element. In rental apartments the window between bookings dictates start and end dates, with serious penalties if delivery slips. In primary residences, the pace is set by the owner's ability to live elsewhere. In both cases, locking milestones per chapter (demolition, installations, tiling, kitchen, finishes) and processing council and community permits in advance avoids delays and misunderstandings.
