It always depends on the type of work and the municipality. This guide is for information only: always check with your local council and with us.
Work that changes the structure, the façade or the use of the space usually requires a licence or prior notification to the local council. Simple interior work is often exempt.
In apartment buildings, work affecting the façade, common areas or structure needs the approval of the owners’ association.
Property record (caderneta predial) or land registry certificate, useful for applying for licences and for the contract.
Electrical and gas installations must be carried out and certified by qualified technicians. At the end of the job you receive the certificates.
May be needed after a major renovation, especially if you plan to sell or let the property.
A signed quote and works contract protect both parties. Also check the works insurance cover.
