This type of reform is usually carried out when you want to completely update the space, correct structural problems, improve the functionality and energy efficiency of the property, or simply change the aesthetics of the house to adapt it to new needs or personal tastes. <\/p>\n<h2>What are the key elements in a comprehensive reform?<\/h2>\n<h3>What structural changes are being made?<\/h3>\n<p>In a comprehensive renovation, structural changes may include the modification of walls, the installation of new beams to support changes in the layout of the space, or even the complete overhaul of the building's fa\u00e7ade. These changes require careful planning and, often, approval of plans by local authorities due to their impact on the safety and structure of the building. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_divider_0 et_pb_divider_hidden et_pb_space et_pb_divider_position_top et_pb_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_divider_internal\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_cta_0 et_pb_promo et_pb_bg_layout_dark et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_promo_description\"><h2 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Contact our architectural firm<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_button_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button et_pb_promo_button\" href=\"https:\/\/vellomonfortarquitectes.com\/en\/contact\/\">Contact<\/a><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_divider_1 et_pb_divider_hidden et_pb_space et_pb_divider_position_top et_pb_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_divider_internal\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_1 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module et_pb_text_align_justified\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3>Which facilities are affected?<\/h3>\n<p>Electrical and plumbing installations are often completely replaced during a comprehensive renovation to meet modern standards and ensure long-term functionality. This includes new plumbing, wiring, heating and air conditioning systems, as well as the integration of home automation technology for more efficient home management. <\/p>\n<h2>What energy improvements are considered?<\/h2>\n<h3>How can energy efficiency be improved?<\/h3>\n<p>A crucial part of the integral reform is the improvement of the energy efficiency of the property. This is achieved by installing thermal insulation in walls, ceilings and floors, replacing windows with double or triple glazing options, and incorporating renewable energy systems such as solar panels or geothermal heating systems. <\/p>\n<h2>What aesthetic changes are included?<\/h2>\n<h3>How are finishes selected?<\/h3>\n<p>Finishes play an important role in the visual transformation of the property. In a comprehensive renovation, new flooring, tile, paint, and other finishes are selected as part of the effort to update the look of the property. The selection of high quality materials not only improves the aesthetics but also the durability and value of the property.  <\/p>\n<h2>What legal and administrative considerations are necessary?<\/h2>\n<h3>What permits are required?<\/h3>\n<p>Before beginning a comprehensive renovation, it is crucial to obtain the necessary permits from local authorities. This includes building permits to ensure that renovation plans comply with all local zoning and building regulations. Failure to obtain the proper permits can result in significant fines and legal problems.  <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_1 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_1 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_code_0 et_pb_code et_pb_text_align_center et_pb_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_code_inner\"><div class=\"author-box\" style=\"border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding: 20px; margin-top: 40px; border-radius: 12px; max-width: 600px; text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vellomonfortarquitectes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/joseantonio.jpg\" alt=\"Jos\u00e9 Antonio Vell\u00f3, chartered architect in Gand\u00eda\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" style=\"border-radius: 50%; object-fit: cover; margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n  <h3 style=\"margin: 0 0 10px;\">About the author: Jos\u00e9 Antonio Vell\u00f3<\/h3>\n  <p style=\"margin: 0 0 10px;\">\n Architect registered with the <strong>COACV <\/strong>and co-founder of <strong>Vell\u00f3 Monfort Arquitectes<\/strong>.
