Builders
Hi folks
I have just bought a house in Malaga central and need a local builder, I have two options either reform or demolish and rebuild my question is how easy is it to get the permits done? And how easy is it to get good builders in Malaga.
I am a builder myself with over 40 years in the game so I know what to do on site but getting around Spanish laws is something else. Is it possible to get a local Architect and engineer to do the paper work with planning permission and I get my own trades?
Does anyone have any advice.
Thanks

The licence details WHO is doing the work so be careful here and don't get a quote from someone else and then do it yourself.

Thanks for the info, if the local architect and builder do the shell and roof is it possible for me to finish off all the interiors ?

If doing your own work dont work over the siesta!. A foreign chap has been doing that in my street and has unearthed the wrath of God!! It's actually illegal

Re: Builders
All works must be quoted for as the licence fee is based on a percentage of the cost. The quote MUST come from a known builder (with CIF/NIF) and can't come from yourself. I know because I wanted to do some of the work myself and was given these answers.
