Real planning
Before starting we define scope, phases, materials and key decisions. A well-planned project avoids improvised changes and unexpected costs.

Our approach
A renovation designed to match the quality of your home.
A full home renovation is not a collection of separate jobs. It is a carefully coordinated process, in which every decision, every material and every finish forms part of a shared result.
We work with attention to detail, trusted professionals and clear direction from start to finish, to create spaces that are well built, durable and in keeping with the quality of your home.
Daily site management
Someone responsible is on site every day: coordinating trades, anticipating problems and making decisions in time, not when it's already too late.
Careful finishes
The quality of a renovation shows in the details. We check junctions, joints, alignments and finishes until the result is right.
If your only criterion is finding the lowest price, we're probably not the right company. If you're looking for a well-managed, well-finished renovation, let's talk.
Projects
Spaces designed to be lived in
A selection of spaces that reflect the way we work: careful proportions, quality materials and clean finishes.
Before and after
The same home in Jávea, transformed room by room
Renovated kitchen in Jávea: rescued and finished with Ibiza-style touches
This is how we found this kitchen after it was left unfinished by another builder: demolished, disorganised and without finishes. We turned it into a warm space with Ibiza-style built-in cabinets, a microcement worktop and a layout designed for everyday life.
Upstairs bathroom: from bare shell to microcement bathroom
In the same home in Jávea, the upstairs bathroom was a bare shell: exposed blockwork, exposed installations and no finishes. Today it is a continuous microcement bathroom, with a built-in shower with niches, a solid wood vanity unit and a backlit mirror.
Upstairs landing: order, light and bespoke joinery
The upstairs landing was completely rebuilt. After reviewing installations and finishes, it was resolved with smooth walls, a continuous floor, a bespoke built-in wardrobe and a barn-style sliding wooden door.
Services
A complete solution for the whole home
We cover the entire project, from the first decision to the final review, without you having to coordinate each trade yourself.
Space redistribution
Rethinking the home's layout to gain light, space and a logical flow between rooms.
Demolition and civil works
Structural and masonry works carried out with waste control and safety in mind.
Electrics and plumbing
Installations renewed and sized for the home's real use, with certification.
Kitchens and bathrooms
Design, measurements, material selection and installation coordinated with the rest of the works.
Flooring, wall coverings and painting
Careful surface preparation and laying, with special attention to joints and junctions.
Bespoke joinery
Doors, wardrobes and fitted elements defined in the project and adjusted on site.
Lighting
Lighting plan by room and use: general, functional and ambient.
Air conditioning and efficiency
Insulation, exterior joinery and air conditioning systems suited to the Mediterranean climate.
Terraces and outdoor spaces
Paving, pergolas, pool areas and outdoor spaces integrated with the home.
Coordination of trades and suppliers
A single point of contact who organises timings, deliveries and responsibilities for each trade.
Material and phase decisions
We guide you through every choice, with technical judgement and clear consequences for timeline and cost.
Final review
Complete review before handover: checks, adjustments and correction of details.
One team, one complete vision and a coordinated project from the very beginning.
Process
How we turn an idea into a well-executed renovation
- 1
We get to know your home and your priorities
We visit the property, listen to how you want to live in it and assess its real condition: installations, structure, orientation and possibilities.
- 2
We define the project
We set out scope, layout, specifications and phases. The better defined the project, the less improvisation later on.
- 3
We prepare a clear proposal
You receive a detailed, easy-to-understand proposal: what is included, what isn't, the order of works and the timeline.
- 4
We manage and communicate
Daily site management, coordination of trades and regular communication with progress reports and photographs.
- 5
We review before handover
Full review of finishes and installations, correction of details, and handover of a clean, finished home.
Why START
The difference lies in how the works are managed
Materials can be bought anywhere. What determines the result is the organisation, judgement and communication over the months a renovation takes.
Over 25 years of experience
Decades carrying out renovations on the Costa Blanca, with the judgement that only comes from having solved many different projects.
Hands-on site management
We don't delegate control. There is daily site management that makes decisions and takes responsibility for them.
Physical office in Xaló
A real place to meet, review materials and discuss the project face to face.
Service in Spanish and English
Smooth communication with local and international owners, without technical misunderstandings.
Progress reports
Regular updates with photographs of the site's progress, even if you're not in Spain.
Cleanliness and order
A tidy site works better, is easier to control and respects both the home and the neighbours.
Fit
Is START the right company for your project?
We prefer to say it clearly from the outset. We work best with certain projects and certain owners, and that benefits both sides.
Yes, we're probably a good fit if…
- You're taking on a substantial renovation, not a one-off fix.
- You value design, functionality and the quality of the final finish.
- You prefer a single responsible team to coordinate the whole project.
- You want clarity: defined scope, timely decisions and constant communication.
- You understand that quality is an investment in your home, not a cost to minimise.
Probably not, if…
- Your main criterion is hiring the cheapest quote.
- You want to start the works without having the project defined.
- You'd rather hire and manage each trade separately yourself.
If that's your case, we understand completely and wish you a smooth project. Our work is designed for a different kind of commission.
