This project was done to satisfy the needs for access by the disabled and aged people.

The first thing to do was to get the existent lift down to the ground level.

Then we completely refurbished the entrance area and the staircase area by re plastering and re tiling the walls, installation of a new insulating ceiling, resistant and non slip flooring, lighting and electricity.

We also put a vinyl on the main wall to complete the look and make the entrance atractive. Extensive additions were made to the electrics such as hidden LED strip lighting under the mailboxes and marking the stair steps.

We also refurbished the staircase area including new non slip flooring, re plastering and painting the walls, lighting and electricity.

To finish we changed the entrance door and part of the façade to give the building hole new look.

This bar is built to stand the test of time, combining quality, style and functionality.

We gave the existing venue a smart uplift (such as counter) to save money for the new things to do.

We completely refurbished the bar area including new backfitting, re plastering re tiling the walls, installation of a new insulating ceiling, resistant and non slip flooring, covering the counter with a metal sheet, heating and cooling, plumbing, lighting and electrical systems.

We also supplied the bar area with new tables, a bespoke leather sofa made by a local woodworker, chairs and stools to complete the look. Extensive additions were made to the electrics such as hidden LED strip lighting under the sofa, shelves and the counter.

We also made two toilets, as it is required by local regulations.The refurbishment work included new toilets, sinks, new non slip flooring, re tiling, re decoration, plumbing, lighting and electricity.

To finish we painted the entrance wood windows and door in white to give the bara hole new look to attract customers.

This project consisted in carrying out extensive refurbishment work throughout including kitchen, corridor, bedrooms, living room, office space and transforming one bathroom into two. Adding a second bethroom greatly adds to the value of the flat.

Bathrooms and kitchens are often the main selling points of houses and flats.

The lacquered white kitchen is partially done by bespoke elements. The units are push open and soft close with pull out drawers inside the units. There is also a hiden extractor installed above the kitchen.

New floors and false ceiling were fitted. We chose grey wood parquet for the living places, and 3 different kinds of tiles in the bathrooms and the kitchen.

We choose to make two different bathrooms, the first one inspired by a Finnish sauna, and the second one in classic black and white.

We installed a gas boiler and changed the electrical radiators for new water ones. A cheaper and more efficient alternative.

The flat was painted throughout and extensive changes were made to the electricity and plumbing.

Technical Inspection of Buildings (ITE). It is a legal preventive maintenance of a number of elements in a building since 2011 in Spanish cities.

It controls aspects as foundation and structure, facades and walls, watertight and airtight, sealing and roofs, facilities and other elements. Everything that affects safety, health or public maintenance of the building and the people who inhabit it.

In an ITE we find different building pathologies, we study the defects and performance in order to develop appropriate remedial and management solutions.

The majority of problems are associated with lack of maintenance, chronic neglect and building defects leading to water ingress, condensation and dampness.

Pathologies: 1_Penetrating damp/rising damp in basement walls and under the roof.

2_Cracks in cantilevered canopies, balconies and window ledges. Some steel bars already corroded.

Risks and solution:

1_water penetrating, corrosion could occur, it also affects habitability.

2_water penetrating, corrosion will occur in the main steel bars as they are exposed to weathering. Urgent, pieces could fall down to the street.

3_ some reinforcing steel bars not properly 3_ could cause Concrete deterioration by corrocovered by concrete, bad execution work. sion needs reparation by covering.

Role Description Visiting site and taking pictures to document the report.

Drawing plans for the erection of the proposed scaffold.

Liaising with construction professionals.

Writing and presenting the report to the council.

This project complies with current legislation UNE 76-502-90 HD 1000, y DIN 4420. It is a supported scaffold with platforms supported by rigid, load bearing members such as poles, legs, frames and outriggers.

We seek to ensure a safe scaffold construction by fully qualified and trained scaffolding operatives. Informing employers and workers, in compliance with correct safety standards, can save lives and prevent accidents.

Inspections: _ After installation or assembly in any position _ After exceptional circumstances which are liable to jeopardise the safety of work equipment _ At intervals not exceeding 7 days _ Check on before use Persons working on scaffolds and pedestrians are exposed to hazards that have to be prevented. Some of those hazards are falling from elevation, struck by falling tools or debris, scaffold collapse or bad planking giving way and electrocution among others.

Some accidents can be prevented by wearing a wide range of personal protection such as apropriate workwear, safety helmet, non slip footwear, working gloves and security belts.
