Regulations and Permits for Landscaping in Simat de Valldigna

Understanding the local regulations is crucial for any landscaping project in Simat de Valldigna. As a professional company, TuExterior handles all necessary paperwork and ensures your project complies with municipal ordinances and regional laws.

The primary regulatory framework governing land use and construction in Simat de Valldigna is the municipal Normas Subsidiarias (NNSS) and the regional Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje (LOTUP). It's important to note that significant portions of the municipality, particularly in areas like Pla de Corrals or La Xara, are designated as protected rustic land, which imposes specific restrictions on construction and alterations.

For most landscaping works, you will typically need to apply for either a Comunicación Previa (prior notification) or an Licencia de Obra Menor (minor works license) from the Simat de Valldigna Town Hall. Simple aesthetic improvements like planting, installing irrigation, or laying paths often fall under Comunicación Previa. However, any structural changes, significant earthworks, the construction of pergolas (especially if fixed to the ground), retaining walls, or the installation of permanent features like pools, will almost certainly require an Licencia de Obra Menor. This ensures compliance with local urban planning regulations, safety standards, and environmental considerations.

For specific elements like the installation of awnings (toldos), while not strictly "landscaping," they are often part of outdoor improvements. These must comply with technical standards such as UNE-EN 13561, which specifies requirements for external blinds and awnings, ensuring their safety and performance. We will always advise you on the specific permit requirements for your individual project and can assist in the application process to ensure a smooth and compliant execution.
