Landscaping & Garden Design in Llombay

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you have recently moved to our beautiful corner of the Ribera Alta comarca, you are likely looking to transform your outdoor space into a Mediterranean sanctuary. Providing professional landscaping in Llombay is one of my personal passions, as I truly appreciate the unique character of this inland town. With a population of approximately 2,791 residents, Llombay offers a tranquil lifestyle, yet the local climate—characterized by hot, dry summers and occasional torrential autumn rains—requires a specialized approach to garden design. Whether you are located in the established urbanisations of Sant Antoni and Alèdua, or have a property in the more rugged areas of El Tello or Els Cerros, we understand how to work with the local terrain. From xeriscaping that respects our water scarcity to installing durable pergolas for shade, we tailor every project to the specific microclimate of the Marquesat valley. Regarding investment, in Llombay a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on the complexity of the hardscaping and the plant maturity selected.

Regulations and Permits for your Outdoor Project

Navigating the legal landscape in Llombay is essential to ensure your investment is protected and compliant with local standards. For any structural additions like awnings or bioclimatic pergolas, we strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates the wind resistance and safety requirements for solar protection systems in Spain.

When it comes to municipal permits, the situation in Llombay is currently in a period of transition. The town is still largely governed by its 1982 Normas Subsidiarias (Subsidiary Rules). However, the Ayuntamiento is in the process of developing a new Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) under the framework of the Valencian Land Law (LOTUP). This is particularly relevant for residents in "asentamientos diseminados" (scattered settlements) or older urbanisations, as the new regulations aim to regularize existing structures and define clearer boundaries for what constitutes "Obra Menor" (minor works) versus "Obra Mayor" (major works). Generally, simple landscaping, tiling, and removable structures require a Comunicacion Previa or an Obra Menor licence, which involves a small municipal fee. For larger structures or significant earthmoving in protected rustic areas near El Tello, more rigorous environmental reports may be required. We handle the technical documentation needed to ensure your project aligns with both the current 1982 rules and the evolving LOTUP requirements.
