Gràcia · 2026
Gràcia was an independent village until 1897. Its housing stock runs from low houses of 1800-1850 (Vila de Gràcia) to first-ensanche flats from 1900-1930. Floor plates of 45-70 m² are the norm — often without a second bedroom. The municipal heritage catalogue protects façades around plaça del Sol, plaça del Diamant and carrer Verdi. Communities of owners are small (4-8 neighbours) — quick agreements but unanimous votes required.
Typical Gràcia renovations: redistribution that gains a bedroom inside a small plate, exposed timber beams kept and treated with woodworm inhibitor, REBT rewire (most are still fuse-only), window swap that keeps the street-facing frame, walk-in shower replacing the tub, kitchen opened to living to win light. Albert Soler proposes the redistribution that best fits a given floor plate.

FAQ · Gràcia
Almost always yes, by redistribution. We study load axes, daylight and drainage stack. Typical solutions: master bedroom with built-in wardrobe, second bedroom of 7-9 m² for a child or office. We prove it with a layout drawing on the visit.
In Vila de Gràcia, Sant Antoni de Pàdua and plaça del Sol — yes, municipal catalogue. Window swap possible if partition and proportion are kept. Colour and materiality are regulated. We check the catalogue before quoting.
Usually tea pine. We inspect with a punch: if the wood is sound, we keep and treat with woodworm inhibitor and clear varnish. If active woodworm or rot, partial replacement with laminated beams. Extra cost €600-1,200 per beam.
