Projects

This portfolio is
under construction.

We’re building this page with the jobs we’re finishing right now. Each one goes up when it has been handed over and its owner has agreed to let us show it: not before, and never with somebody else’s photos.

In the meantime, here is what we can tell you today: what kinds of work we do, what each one really involves, and how we document the day-to-day so the client can watch it from their portal while the job is happening.

The photos on this page are reference images. They’re here to illustrate what each type of work involves. None of them is a job built by PEMAGA Building.

What we build

Six types of work.
One single method.

What changes is the specification, the person you deal with and the amount of noise you have to put up with. What doesn’t change is the itemised quote, our own site manager and a completion date in writing. All of it in the Baix Llobregat and the Barcelona metropolitan area.

Building and façade refurbishment

The job you do with everybody still living there. Up goes the scaffold, in goes the pavement licence, and from that point on every week of delay is a week the whole building has to live with. Which is why here the programme is not decoration.

  • Building envelope, insulation and façade finishes
  • Light wells, party walls and roofs
  • Scaffolding, protection and pavement licences
  • Reports and site records for the owners

Full home refurbishment

A whole flat: strip out what’s in the way, redo the services and build it back up. That means weeks of dust and trades coming in one after another. The only way it doesn’t drag on forever is somebody running it every single day, and that somebody is the site manager.

  • Strip-out, muck away and waste disposal
  • Plumbing, electrics, heating, cooling and ventilation
  • Brickwork, wall and floor tiling, suspended ceilings
  • Joinery, painting and snagging

Shop and office fit-outs

Here the programme isn’t a convenience: every extra week is a week of rent paid with no tills ringing. We work to the opening date from day one and we run the paperwork alongside the build, not at the end.

  • Fitting out an empty unit or changing its use
  • Services, air conditioning and extract flues
  • Accessibility and regulatory compliance
  • Working with the consultant who signs off the licence

Public works Public sector · metropolitan area

Public works won by tender

We bid for tenders and we build what we’re awarded. Everything around the job changes: the tender documents rule, the supervising architect inspects and you’re paid on interim valuations. What doesn’t change is who’s on site every morning.

  • Reading the tender documents and submitting the bid
  • Delivery with interim valuations by period
  • Working with the supervising architect and engineer
  • Technical and financial standing of Grupo PEMAGA

Blocks of flats

The quote has to make sense at a residents’ meeting, at eight in the evening, to people who aren’t in the trade. That’s why it’s itemised and comes with photographs. And once the work starts, progress is shown on screen instead of recounted from memory.

  • Entrance halls, stairwells, courtyards and common parts
  • Roofs, downpipes and the building envelope
  • Dealing directly with the management company
  • Portal access for the chair and the managing agent

Kitchens and bathrooms

The two rooms that tell you whether a refurbishment was done properly: the falls, the joints, the junctions. Short, very dense jobs, with new services, tanking and an installation where you cannot improvise a measurement.

  • New services and tanking
  • Wall and floor tiling, with every junction on show
  • Units, worktops and sanitaryware
  • Option to fit Häcker kitchens through PEMAGA Home

How we document every job

The photo isn’t taken at the end.
It’s taken every day.

Anyone can put together a handsome gallery once the job is finished. The hard part, and the useful part, is having the whole record: what was there on day one, what was done on the Tuesday and how it ended up. That only exists if you shoot while you work.

  • 01
    Before we touch anything

    On the survey visit we photograph every room. Those photos stay attached to the item they belong to and appear inside the quote, so you know exactly what each line is talking about.

  • 02
    The before and after of every task

    The crews shoot from their phones while they’re on site. Back at the office we pick them one by one, keeping the ones that say something; the rest stay in-house, not in the client’s gallery.

  • 03
    Dated, always

    Every photo carries the day it was taken. That’s what turns an album into a record: it shows the progress, and it settles an argument two months later without anybody’s selective memory.

  • 04
    And you see them while the job is still running

    Not on handover, in a PDF. The client logs into their portal that same evening and sees what was done today, next to the percentage of work completed.

Space reserved

What will be here before long.

When we publish a job, this is what we will publish. No brochure prose: a record sheet with what was done, how long it took and real photos of the three stages. A job appears here once it is handed over and its owner lets us show it.

Project record sheet

Template · nothing published yet
Type Private or public, and who it was handed over to: a private client, a company, a block of flats or a public authority.
Where Town and district. No exact address and no client name, unless they ask us for the opposite.
Scope The sections that went into the quote: strip-out, services, building work, finishes. What was done, not what we offer.
Programme The date that was signed and the date that was met. Both figures, even when they don’t match.
Photos The same ones the client saw in their portal while the work was on, with their dates, published with their permission.

These slots will be filled with photographs of our own jobs. Until then they stay empty on purpose.

Already a client

What if the job you want to see is your own?

Then you don’t need this page. Log in with the username we gave you at the office and look inside your own job: the quote item by item with its photos, the real percentage complete and your thread with the site manager.

The next job on this page could be yours.

Tell us what you want to do. We come and see it, we measure it and we send you an itemised quote showing what’s in and what isn’t. Private clients, companies, blocks of flats and public authorities.
