Swimming pool refurb and building of terrace area

This was a total rebuild of a swimming pool and terrace area. This shows what can be achieved with some imagination. The renovation of the pool included the following –

All new plumbing installation, with all new fittings
Installation of new LED lights
Installation of counter current swim pump
Installation of massage fountain
Fit out of pump room with all new electrical control boxes, pumps for cascade, filtration and swim pump.
Installation of salt chlorinator with automatic pH dosing system
Raising the depth of the floor
Finished with Renolit AlkorPlan TOUCH VANITY reinforced membrane, for a truly luxurious result
Supply and install of cover system (not pictured)
Build of complete terrace around the pool, tiled, with correct falls and drainage
Building of pump house, outdoor toilet and storage area

As you can see from the before and after photographs, a lot of work went into creating the perfect pool. The marble effect of the TOUCH VANITY membrane gives the water a stunning blue turquoise colour. The TOUCH range is textured and feels luxurious. At the end is also a video of the installation.

Concrete block wall construction, for retaining wall or extension

Concrete block wall construction, for retaining wall or extension. If you are planning on building an extension, or need a medium strength retaining wall for your building project on the Costa del Sol, the chances are that the best choice of materials is concrete blocks. They are easy to work with and provide a high strength solution, if used correctly.

One of the most common cost cutting things we see is that builders have not filled them or used the correct amount of reinforcing.

Stainless Steel Balustrade post and cable at Villa Renovation

An installation of modern stainless steel balustrade for a client on the beach, between Marbella and Estepona. This villa, built in the 70’s is being completely reformed to a modern standard.

As part of the ongoing project, here we highlight the installation of the stainless steel balustrade, as it needs an eye for detail, to ensure that everything is correctly lined up and both vertical and horizontal, with correct spacing.

This type of stainless steel railing is ideal for all types of houses, as it does not obstruct views and is long lasting and hard wearing, especially important next to the sea.

We can also provide stainless steel and glass panels, however these are not without their downsides. Glass panels exposed to the sun, can (and do) crack. Clear glass needs regular cleaning, to look nice and prevent water marking. This can be overcome by using frosted glass panels, but then they can block the view.

These types of fencing are ideal for putting around swimming pools as stylish safety fencing, around terraces, patios etc.

Swimming Pool Tiling, Mijas, Costa del Sol, Spain

This swimming pool had been abandoned for many years. The condition of the tiles was very bad with no grout, staining and many tiles falling off.

We stripped the existing tiles, treated the cement to kill the algae, applied a coat of render to smooth the surfaces, then retiled using glass mosaic tiles.

If you are looking to optimise outdoor space, wooden structures are the perfect way. They blend well with existing decor and the wood can be painted any colour or stained.

Our team of carpenters are able to create any type of structure from wood, both indoor and outdoor. Car ports, outdoor entertainment areas, decking structures, or just give some much needed shade over the dining area. Our carpentry team can also build the bar area, outdoor dining tables.

Wood is a highly versatile material and can be used to make things to all different shapes and sizes. We have had clients ask for wooden shutters to cover air conditioning units and so on.

The wood used in these type of structures is treated to protect from the elements.

In many cases these types of wooden structures do not need planning permission, as they are not classed as permanent structures.

Retaining Wall collapsed after heavy rains?

This wall was built very poorly by the constructor of the villa in Sierra Blanca, Marbella. The wall was of insufficient strength to be able to support the weight of the terrain and the pool above it.

The rains were torrential, above the normal average, but a structural wall should be strong enough to support it.

If you need help with constructing a retaining wall that won’t collapse, contact us today.

Campo House, Finca, Extension works

In this ongoing project, we are creating a double storey extension on the side of the original stone build ruin.

The walls are going up on a concrete foundation, with high density concrete block work.

Eventually this will be rendered, new windows installed and the roof finished.

Exterior rendering, Villa renovation by our builders, Mijas

This villa was built in the 1970’s and is in need of modernization. In the interior, all of the walls have been plastered, new floors with high quality ceramic tiles, new kitchen, totally rewired etc. Later on, the terrace will be tiled and the cracked pool repaired and renovated.

We have taken these photos to show what a radical transformation can be achieved for something so old fashioned. The walls of this house are clad in clay bricks. We have applied a bonding agent, then a cement based glue, followed by a waterproof render.

Rendering exterior walls, villa renovation, Mijas

First stage of the process is to apply a bonding agent. Once the bonding agent is in place a rough first coat of render can be applied, this builds up the depth.

Second step, another skim and profiles put into the corner to leave a straight and vertical edge

Third stage, here the corner profile is in place and to the right hand side, a strip of render has been applied which is perfectly vertical to give a guide for the final coat of render.

Here, the finished result. A perfectly smooth, flat and clean looking wall. Imagine the transformation to the entire house. Once the whole house is rendered outside, it will look fresh and modern, all the 70’s details gone.

Complete Tiling of a newly renovated pool for clients in Ronda.

The pool structure was completely stripped back to a bare shell and then tiled in high quality glass mosaic tiles.

The very deep pool was made shallower by pouring concrete.

Another complete reform hours away from completion.

This swimming pool is situated on the outskirts of Ronda next to the famous Ascari racing circuit. We raised the floor level, waterproofed the whole pool and retiled. Less than 5 days start to finish!

Swimming Pool Cascade added as part of complete pool and terrace renovation, Mijas

We will add more footage and pictures later, but here the whole terrace has been demolished, the pool surround demolished.

We levelled the swimming pool, made a whole new pool surround, new terrace made from reinforced concrete, new walls around the pool, with lighting.

The cascade is stunning, creating a relaxing focal point at the head of the pool.

Add a cascade to your pool for that ultimate finishing touch.
