Landscaping & Garden Design in Pego

Hola, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. Living and working in the Marina Alta comarca, I have seen how the unique landscape of our region demands a specialized approach to outdoor design. Whether you are settled in the established heights of Monte Pego with its sweeping views, the quiet streets of Bella Vista, or the greener pockets of the Arboleda urbanisation, creating a functional garden is essential for enjoying the Mediterranean lifestyle. When it comes to landscaping in Pego, we understand that this town of approximately 10,670 residents faces a specific inland climate; it is often warmer and more humid than the immediate coast, nestled in a valley that requires resilient planting and smart shading solutions. Our team focuses on transforming these plots into sustainable retreats. Regarding investment, in Pego a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on whether you require hardscaping, irrigation, or pergolas. We take pride in balancing aesthetic beauty with the practical realities of the Pego terrain, ensuring your investment thrives in our local soil.

Regulations and Permits for Landscaping in Pego

Navigating the legal framework is a crucial part of any outdoor renovation in the Valencian Community. In Pego, all landscaping and exterior construction projects must adhere to the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) and the regional Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje (LOTUP). These regulations dictate what can be built, the height of perimeter walls, and the percentage of "green" versus "paved" areas on your plot to ensure proper drainage and urban harmony.

For most landscaping projects that do not involve structural changes—such as planting, installing irrigation, or laying a new patio—the process is relatively simple. These are typically classified as "Obra Menor" (minor works). Under current Pego municipal ordinances, these often only require a "Declaración Responsable," which is a formal notification to the Ayuntamiento (Town Hall) stating that you will comply with the rules. This allows work to begin almost immediately after filing.

However, if your project includes larger structures like substantial retaining walls, swimming pools, or permanent guest houses, a full "Licencia de Obra" is required. Furthermore, any solar protection or awnings we install are designed to meet the UNE-EN 13561 standard, ensuring safety and wind resistance. We handle the technical documentation required by the Pego authorities to ensure your project is fully compliant with both local and European safety standards.
