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.

Custom built wooden bar for brewery restaurant
  • Posted By SpecialisedBuilder
  • on November 22,2018

Custom built wooden bar for brewery restaurant by our carpenters.

This custom made wooden bar perfectly compliments the surroundings. This was quite an involved project, as the weight needing support was quite significant.

A steel structure was made first, all welded and treated, then all bolted and welded into position to take the main weight of the barrels. Around the base of this, we built the support of the bar top from rustic clay bricks.

On top of this support is the solid wooden bar top, the wooden pillars that provide decoration and support for the tongue and groove ceiling.

Once everything was completed, it was all sanded, sealed and stained.

This type of custom built wooden bar can be used in restaurants, bars or be equally at home as a feature in your entertainment areas, such as home bar, pool room or in a room at the side of the swimming pool.

Our carpenters can make bars to suit any space, whether commercial or private, new build villa, or recently renovated apartment.

Built in Wardrobes, Cupboards, Doors, Flooring and Custom made furniture

Do you have small difficult spaces, where there are doors are needed or shelves needed, but there just is nothing available in the stores? Our carpenters can custom make these items to suit the space available. Interior space can be maximised by using custom made doors, wardrobes, cupboards and so on. Off the shelf carpentry just won’t do.

If you want a truly unique item, we can also custom make furniture, such as tables.

In these pictures we showcase some small projects of interior carpentry work from some of our building projects on the Costa del Sol.

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.

Pool repair and renovation, Costa del Sol

Total Swimming Pool Renovation, Costa del Sol

This is a total renovation of an old swimming pool. The prefabricated pool surround was breaking up and was painful for people to walk on. The inside of the pool was painted. After 30 years of paint being applied, it was looking a mess and the paint was starting to come off in patches.

The first thing that we did was to demolish the existing pool surround. This waste was removed to a treatment plant.

The swimming pool was then drained and allowed to dry a little ready for the sand blasting. The sand blasting removes all the loose paint back to the original render and ensures that the new tiles will be well stuck.

The surround is made from very hard white concrete. We build shuttering and then pour in the mix. Once it starts to set, we float it to level the stones in the mix. This creates a smooth, yet non slip surface. Once the concrete is fully set we remove the shuttering, polish the edges and make expansion cuts.

The last stage was to tile and grout the pool. In this pool the choice was high quality AlttoGlass mosaic tiles from the North of Spain.

As you can see, the results of this 5 day project are stunning.

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.

Swimming Pool tiling, Mijas, Costa del Sol

A before and after picture of a swimming pool tiling & renovation project in Mijas.

In the before picture, the pool doesn’t really look that bad, but it was a very boring colour of blue, with the stereotypical dolphin and Greek key border. There was no personal touch, that the clients could be proud of.

The pool was leaking through the pipe in the base of the pool. Excavation of the terrace to get to the pipe was impossible, as the terrace is stamped concrete and difficult to repair. However what made the work impossible (without tens of thousands of euros) is that the pool is supported by a retaining wall 5m high, on top of which is a concrete ring beam and then the terrace. Excavation in this area would have disturbed the ring beam and the retaining wall.

Instead, we re-purposed the hoover pipe to give a working drain. The pool can be hoovered using the skimmer, so not a problem. We did suggest that the most economical option would have been to simply block the drain off, but as the owner wanted to tile the pool to his liking, it made sense to make the repair.

The tiles chosen are a beautiful turquoise glass mosaic.

Building works to bathroom, shower installation and tiling, Marbella

In this project, our professional building team got to work in Marbella. The old guest bathroom was stripped out, the walls were then made good. The old floor tiles were also removed. In the area of the tiling in the shower zone, the walls were first waterproofed to ensure no leakage problems.

The tiles and colour scheme for the bathroom, were chosen and specified by the client. We think the result of this small project is very good.

The bathroom suite comprises a toilet, wash basin and shower, with new plumbing and taps.

Covered outdoor terrace and other general building, Marbella

Building works to a country villa near Marbella progressing well. The sandwich board roof is in place, with the beams painted. Next project is to level and tile the floor and render the walls. This will be easier for our workers now, as they can work in the shade. The new roof over the patio has been put much higher than the original, this will make it cooler in summer and allow more light into the house.

In the interior more rooms have been stripped out ready for more new wiring.

We work in the Marbella, Mijas, Fuengirola and Estepona areas on the coast and inland to Alhaurin, Coin and Monda. We work with all types of building and renovations, including swimming pools and pool leak detection.

We can add terraces around your swimming pool, build extensions, whatever your villa on the Costa del Sol needs.

Contact us today to discuss your Costa del Sol building requirements.

Pool surround replacement with marmolina, Elviria, Marbella

Pool surround replacement with marmolina, Elviria, Marbella

Here we have before and work in progress pictures of a pool in Elviria, Marbella. We are laying a new white stone (Marmolina) surround and afterwards we will acid clean and regrout the whole pool to have it looking perfect for summer 2018! More pictures coming soon…

The marmolina white pool surround is a very hard wearing,  non slip material. It is mixed onsite, poured into shuttering, then polished and afterwards we make cuts into it for expansion.

The surround on this swimming pool was in very poor condition, so had to be changed. At the end, the pool will be acid cleaned and then regrouted.

This work is part of a complete villa renovation in the popular area of Elviria, near Marbella.

This kind of project normally takes around 5 days.
