Turnkey home construction If you want a finished home without stress or the need to control every step — choose the turnkey option. The builder takes care of everything: the design, foundation, walls, roofing, finishes, and utility connections. ✔️ You receive a fully completed home — all that’s left is to move in and enjoy. 💬 What to ask your builder: What’s included in the turnkey price?   How many construction phases are there, and what are the timelines?   Is there a warranty on the house?	Aerated concrete home construction Aerated concrete is a popular material in Spain — lightweight, warm, and affordable. The builder erects walls with precise geometry, which speeds up finishing and improves energy efficiency. ✔️ You get a durable, energy-efficient home that’s comfortable all year round. 💬 What to ask your builder: Which blocks are best: Ytong, H+H, or local brands?   Is extra insulation required?   How long-lasting is this material?
Wooden house construction Ideal for those who value sustainability, natural materials, and a cozy atmosphere. The builder uses treated timber, assembles the frame, adds insulation, and performs the finishing work. ✔️ A warm, breathable home with a natural microclimate and timeless charm. 💬 What to ask your builder: How is the wood protected against moisture and insects?   What type of timber or structure will be used?   Is it possible to combine wood with stone or other materials?	Frame house construction If speed and cost matter most — this is the perfect choice. A frame house can be completed in just 2–3 months, offers great insulation, and suits any Spanish climate. ✔️ Fast construction and excellent value — starting from €800 per m². 💬 What to ask your builder: Which materials are used for insulation and waterproofing?   Is this type of house suitable for permanent living?   What warranty do you provide for the frame structure?
Energy-efficient home construction Modern technologies allow you to save up to 50% on heating and cooling. The builder uses advanced insulation, solar panels, and A++ windows for maximum energy efficiency. ✔️ A comfortable, eco-friendly home with minimal energy bills. 💬 What to ask your builder: What energy-efficient technologies do you use?   How much can I save annually on energy consumption?   Can I obtain a “green” energy certificate?	Country house or chalet construction Perfect for those seeking peace and nature away from the city. The builder designs the home in harmony with the landscape, views, and regional climate. ✔️ A cozy home ideal for relaxation, rental income, or year-round living. 💬 What to ask your builder: Which materials are best for my plot and environment?   Can I include a terrace, swimming pool, or garage in the design?   Do you offer turnkey chalet construction with landscaping?

How to choose a good builder

1. Check experience and reviews. 
   Review completed projects, ask for photos of previous homes, and find out how long the company or builder has been in the trade. A reliable professional will always have real examples of their work.
    

2. Verify licenses and insurance. 
   In Spain, builders must hold an autorizado license and seguro de responsabilidad civil (civil liability insurance). This ensures compliance with safety standards and protects you from risk.
    

3. Compare estimates carefully. 
   Ask for a detailed quotation broken down by stages — materials, labor, and timing. This helps avoid hidden costs and unexpected add-ons later.
    

4. Put everything in writing. 
   Sign a contract that includes deadlines, total cost, guarantees, and responsibilities. This is your main protection as a client.
    

5. Pay attention to communication. 
   A good builder keeps you informed, explains processes clearly, and stays in touch throughout the project.
    

6. Avoid choosing the cheapest offer. 
   Suspiciously low prices often mean poor materials or unlicensed work. It’s better to pay a bit more for quality and peace of mind.
