Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking for professional landscaping in Catí, my team and I are here to transform your outdoor space into a functional Mediterranean sanctuary. Living in the heart of the L’Alt Maestrat comarca means dealing with a specific inland climate—hot summers and significantly colder winters compared to the coast—which requires a deep understanding of local flora and durable materials. Whether you reside in the historic village center among its population of approximately 760 residents, or in surrounding areas like the scenic L'Avellà or the traditional Masía de Roblasco, we tailor every project to the rugged beauty of the Castellón interior. We also frequently work near La Font de Catí and Masía de Segarra, ensuring that every garden or terrace respects the authentic stone-clad aesthetic of the region. Budgeting is always a priority; in Catí a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on whether you require simple xeriscaping or complex structural installations like pergolas and stone walls.

Our skilled team executes the project with minimal disruption, using high-quality materials suited for the Alt Maestrat climate, followed by a final walkthrough with you.

Regulations and permits for landscaping in Catí

Navigating the legal landscape is essential for any outdoor project in the province of Castellón. In Catí, all exterior modifications are subject to the municipal Normas Subsidiarias and the regional LOTUP (Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje) of the Valencian Community. A crucial factor to consider is that the historic center of Catí is designated as a Conjunto Histórico-Artístico. This means any work visible from the street or affecting the traditional aesthetic requires strict adherence to heritage protection guidelines and often involves a more detailed approval process from the local council.

For standard installations such as awnings or sun protection, we strictly follow the UNE-EN 13561 standard to ensure wind resistance and safety. Regarding administrative procedures, most landscaping tasks like planting, tiling, or installing removable structures are classified as "Obra Menor" (minor works), requiring a simple communication or a basic permit from the Ayuntamiento de Catí. However, if your project involves structural changes, significant earthmoving, or permanent enclosures, a "Licencia de Obra Mayor" will be necessary, requiring a technical project signed by an architect. At TuExterior, we guide you through these requirements to ensure your new garden is fully compliant with the local PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana).

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does landscaping cost in Catí?
The cost varies significantly based on the complexity and materials chosen. For a standard project including soil preparation, irrigation, and local Mediterranean plants, prices generally range between 30 € and 120 € per square meter. This estimate includes local labour costs, which are competitive in the L’Alt Maestrat region. Structural elements like high-end paving, stone walls, or custom pergolas will naturally push the budget toward the higher end of that scale.
Do I need a licence for landscaping in Catí?
Yes, most outdoor projects require at least a "Comunicación Previa" or an "Obra Menor" permit from the Catí Town Hall. If your property is located within the "Casco Antiguo" (historic center), the regulations are much stricter to preserve the village's heritage, and you may need specific authorization for certain colors or materials. We help identify which permit your specific project needs to avoid any fines or legal issues.
How long does a typical landscaping project take?
A medium-sized residential garden in an area like L'Avellà usually takes between two to four weeks from the start of the physical work. Smaller interventions, such as installing an artificial grass area or a new irrigation system, can often be completed in less than a week. However, the total timeline also depends on the current permit processing times at the local town hall and the seasonal availability of specific plants.
Do you cover all areas of Catí?
Absolutely. We provide services throughout the entire municipality of Catí. This includes the main village nucleus and all peripheral urbanisations and rural areas such as La Font de Catí, Masía de Roblasco, and Masía de Segarra. We are fully equipped to transport materials and machinery to more remote rural estates across the L’Alt Maestrat comarca.
What warranty do you provide for your work?
We offer a standard two-year warranty on all structural installations and hardscaping elements against defects in workmanship or materials. For living elements like plants and trees, we provide a survival guarantee for the first season, provided that a professional irrigation system installed by us is in place and properly maintained. We pride ourselves on the durability of our work against the harsh inland Castellón climate.
Can you design gardens that require very little water?
Yes, xeriscaping is one of our specialties, and it is highly recommended for the Catí area. By using native species that are adapted to the Alt Maestrat’s dry summers and cold winters, we can create beautiful outdoor spaces that require minimal irrigation. This not only saves you money on water bills but also ensures your garden remains resilient during periods of drought or water restrictions.
Do you handle the removal of old garden debris?
Yes, our service is "turnkey," meaning we handle everything from the initial demolition and clearing of old vegetation or rubble to the final cleaning. We ensure all waste is transported to authorized treatment plants in accordance with local environmental regulations in Castellón, leaving your new outdoor space ready for immediate enjoyment.
