Landscaping & Garden Design in Costur

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you have chosen to live in the peaceful surroundings of Costur, within the beautiful L'Alcalatén comarca, you already know that this village of approximately 532 residents offers a unique quality of life. Whether your property is located in the historic centre or within the quieter residential areas like Mas d'Avall or La Lloma Blanca, the outdoor space is the heart of the home. My mission is to help you transform those areas into functional retreats. When planning landscaping in Costur, we must respect the inland climate of Castellón, which brings hot summers and surprisingly crisp winters. We specialise in creating gardens and terraces that thrive in this environment, using Mediterranean species and durable structures. Regarding investment, in Costur a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour. From the heights of El Bosc to the slopes of El Barranc, I personally oversee every detail to ensure your garden reflects the rugged beauty of our province while providing the comfort your family deserves.

Regulations and Permits in Costur

Navigating the legal requirements for outdoor renovations in a small municipality like Costur is essential to avoid fines or project halts. All external installations we provide, such as motorized awnings or pergolas, strictly comply with the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates performance and safety requirements for external blinds and awnings. This ensures that your installation is wind-resistant and built to European safety benchmarks.

Regarding local building regulations, any significant structural change to your garden or terrace falls under the Valencian planning laws (LOTUP - Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje). In Costur, most landscaping projects such as paving, installing irrigation systems, or building low garden walls are classified as "Obra Menor" (Minor Works). This requires a simple notification and the payment of a small municipal tax at the Ayuntamiento. However, if your project involves significant earthmoving, large retaining walls, or permanent enclosed structures, a "Licencia de Obra Mayor" may be required. The local PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana) also dictates aesthetic guidelines, especially for properties near the historic centre, to maintain the traditional character of the village. At TuExterior, we handle the technical documentation required to ensure your project aligns with both the UNE standards and the Costur municipal ordinances.
