Landscaping & Garden Design in Aledo

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are lucky enough to call the historic village of Aledo your home, you already know that our corner of the Bajo Guadalentín comarca offers some of the most dramatic views in the Murcia region. However, the inland climate here presents unique challenges for homeowners; with a population of approximately 1,108 residents, the community is close-knit, and the weather can swing from scorching summer afternoons to surprisingly crisp winter nights. When it comes to landscaping in Aledo, you need a partner who understands the local soil and the specific microclimates of urbanisations like Las Canales, Montysol, or the tranquil areas of Nonihay, Patalache, and Los Allozos. My team and I specialise in creating outdoor spaces that respect the rugged beauty of the Sierra Espuña foothills while providing modern comfort. To give you a starting point for your planning, in Aledo a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on whether you are looking for simple xeriscaping or a full garden overhaul with hardscaping.

Regulations and Permits for Landscaping in Aledo

Navigating the legalities of property improvements in a historic municipality like Aledo requires attention to detail. All installations involving awnings or sun protection must comply with the European standard UNE-EN 13561, which ensures wind resistance and safety. Regarding structural changes, Aledo is currently governed by the Normas Subsidiarias dating back to 1991, although it is important to note that a new Plan General (PGMO) is in the provisional approval phase. This transition means that certain zoning requirements may be subject to change.

For most landscaping projects, such as planting, installing irrigation, or minor decorative walls, an "Obra Menor" (minor works) permit from the Aledo Town Hall is sufficient. This is a relatively straightforward process involving a small fee and a description of the work. However, if your project involves significant structural changes, large swimming pools, or permanent buildings, you will need a full municipal building licence (Licencia de Obra Mayor), which requires a technical project signed by an architect. We always recommend checking with the local planning department, especially if your property is near the historic old town or protected forest areas, to ensure your project respects the local heritage and environmental protection laws.
