House & Building Construction in Parque das Nações

Parque das Nações is recent construction, which changes the nature of the work completely. There are no tabique partitions or timber floor structures here; there are concrete frames, large window systems, owners' associations with detailed rules and towers where everything comes in and out through a lift shared with the residents. The jobs we are asked for are mostly internal alterations and upgrades: opening up spaces, rebuilding kitchens and bathrooms, adapting apartments for letting and preparing commercial units to open. We work with those rules and with that vertical logistics. The paperwork the association expects is dealt with before the work begins, not during it.

About our service in Parque das Nações

In a recent building, the freedom to alter is greater than in an old one, but it has clear limits. Internal walls are normally lightweight partitions that come out without difficulty; columns, beams and cores are structure and are not touched. Then there are the technical installations, with ventilation ducts, fire detection systems and pipework crossing flats and belonging to the building. We obtain the design drawings where they are available, confirm what is structural, and speak to the administration before touching anything that leaves the boundaries of the flat. It is quicker than it sounds and it avoids a job stopped by your own association. We also confirm where the installations run before opening any chase. Tower logistics is the second theme and the one most often underestimated. Materials and rubble share a lift with the residents, loading hours are set by the building rules, and many associations require insurance and prior notification before authorising work. We plan deliveries outside the building's peak hours, protect the lift, corridors and common areas, and remove waste with the same discipline materials arrive with. A good relationship with the administration is worth more than any argument in the middle of the job. Deliveries are booked, not improvised, and the lift is handed back clean. In the shops and restaurants of the Parque, the rules of the commercial condominium set the pace. Restricted working hours, sound insulation requirements, fume extraction and fire safety conditions all demand planning before anything starts. We prepare the programme with the phases and the necessary authorisations identified, and we make clear what depends on third parties. That way the client knows what is within their control and what is not before announcing an opening date. A realistic programme is worth more than an optimistic date announced too early.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions in Parque das Nações:

Does the association have to approve work inside my flat?

For the interior of your own unit it usually does not, but it nearly always requires prior notification, respect for working hours and, in many buildings, insurance. If the work touches common parts, ducts, the facade or the structure, then authorisation is genuinely needed. We read your building's rules before quoting, so there are no surprises in the first week.

Can I open the kitchen into the living room here?

In most cases yes, because the internal partitions are lightweight and carry no load. What needs attention is the extraction and ventilation, which in these buildings are designed as a system and cannot simply be rerouted. We check the drawings and the run of the installations before confirming what is possible.

How do you work without disturbing the whole building?

With agreed hours and site discipline. We protect the lift and common areas, plan deliveries outside the busiest times, concentrate the noisy work and clean at the end of each day. We work Monday to Saturday, 9am to 8pm, with no work on Sunday, which in an occupied tower goes a long way towards keeping the peace.
