Worker in a hard hat on the structure of a building under construction

Building work isn’t explained.
It’s shown.

Full refurbishment and public works across the Barcelona metropolitan area. And something you won’t find at any other contractor around here: you log in with your own account and see the job from the inside —item by item, with the photos of each one— from your phone.

Part of Grupo PEMAGA

Half a century building.
A young division, the same handshake.

PEMAGA Building is the construction and refurbishment division of Grupo PEMAGA, a family group with five decades of work in the Barcelona metropolitan area. That track record is what lets us take on anything from the refurbishment of a flat to a job awarded by public tender, without changing our method or the person in charge.

What we have changed is the way we tell you about it. Every job lives inside our own system —quote, daily site reports, photos, interim valuations— and what the client sees in the portal comes straight out of it, filtered. It isn’t a pretty website sitting on top of a notebook: it’s the same data.

Two ways of working with us

Pick your route.

One contractor and two routes with very different demands. Both have a site manager in charge, a fixed itemised quote and a deadline in writing.

Route A · Private

Homeowners and businesses

Full refurbishment with site supervision, a single point of contact and deadlines that hold. From the kitchen to the complete refurbishment of a building.

  • Full home refurbishment
  • Turnkey kitchens and bathrooms
  • Shop and office fit-out
  • Residential blocks and facades
  • Refurbishment for letting
The difference
Route B · Public

Public bodies and public works

We bid for and deliver work awarded by tender: town councils, consortia and public bodies. With the group’s technical and financial standing behind us.

  • Work delivered under public procurement
  • Refurbishment of buildings and public facilities
  • Interim valuations as set out in the contract documents
  • Coordination with the supervising architect and engineer
  • Financial standing backed by Grupo PEMAGA

Capabilities

What we build.

We take on the whole project. We subcontract trades, never responsibility: whoever looks you in the eye at the start is the same one who does it on handover day.

All services
01

Full refurbishment

A whole home: layout, services and finishes. One project, one team, one deadline and one fixed price.

02

Kitchens and bathrooms

The two rooms where you can tell whether a refurbishment was done properly. With the option of fitting the kitchen with Häcker through PEMAGA Home.

03

Shops and offices

Fit-out of retail units and workplaces, with licences, regulations and opening dates kept on track.

04

Residential blocks

Common areas, courtyards and facades. A quote that holds up at a residents’ meeting and straight dealing with the management company.

05

Building refurbishment

Structure, envelope and energy efficiency. We bring back the value of a whole building, not just its face.

06

Public works by tender

We study the contract documents, bid and deliver, with valuations period by period. It’s the route almost no contractor our size talks about.

Client portal

Your job, wide open.
From your phone.

When you sign with us we give you a username and a password. With them you log in and see the same as the site manager sees: which items are done, which are under way and the photos of each one. No phone call, no waiting until Monday and nobody having to summarise it for you.

  • 01
    The quote, item by item

    Every item with its description, its price and the photos we took on the survey hanging off it. You read it, you understand it and you accept it by signing in the portal itself.

  • 02
    Real progress, not a promise

    A percentage of work done, weighted by what each item is worth. If it says 62%, it is at 62%: it comes out of the site reports the crews sign every day.

  • 03
    Before and after on every item

    The crews upload the photos from site on their phones. We pick them one by one, the ones that tell the story of your job, and those are the ones you see.

  • 04
    A direct line to the person running it

    You write from the portal and the site manager answers, not a call centre. It is in writing and dated, for both of us.

The portal shows your job, not our insides: you will never see internal costs or margins. Figures appear only in your quote, which is yours.

From strip-out to snagging

A refurbishment is a lot of ugly days
and one good one.

Nobody shows the middle part. We do: it is exactly what you will see in your portal while the work lasts, dated and with a photo. Drag to go from the strip-out to the finishes.

Method

Five steps. Always the same ones.

The same rigour for a kitchen as for a job awarded by public tender. The contract documents change; the way we work does not.

Step I

Survey and measurements

We come out, measure and photograph every room. Those photos do not get lost: they stay attached to the item they belong to, and later you will see them inside your quote.

Step II

Fixed quote, item by item

No lump sum by eye. Every item with its measurement, its price and its photo. If something is not included, it says so in writing.

Step III

Signature and planning

You accept the quote by signing —on paper or from your portal— and we give you a start date, a handover date and the name of the site manager running it.

Step IV

On site, with the job in plain view

Our own crews and coordinated trades. A site report is signed every day and photos go up; that is where the progress percentage you see the same afternoon comes from.

Step V

Handover, certification and warranty

Snagging with you, close-out and warranty. On public work, interim valuations period by period before the supervising architect, exactly as the contract asks for.

Grupo PEMAGA · Together

We do the building work.
And the kitchen too.

When we refurbish a kitchen it does not end there: you can fit it out with German Häcker kitchens through PEMAGA Home, another division of the group. One person answering for the building work and for the units, and never a “that’s the other lot”.

Tell us about the job. We will tell you what it costs and how long it takes.

We come out to see it, we measure it and we send you an itemised quote. No obligation and no prices by eye. It makes no difference whether you are a homeowner or a town council.
