Landscaping & Garden Design in Teulada

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. With over a decade of experience transforming outdoor spaces across the Marina Alta, I understand that landscaping in Teulada requires a specialized approach that respects both the Mediterranean aesthetic and the challenging coastal environment. Whether you are living in the exclusive enclave of El Portet, the peaceful hills of Benimeit, or established communities like Villotel and Valle del Portet, your garden faces constant salt exposure and intense sun. Teulada, with its population of approximately 12,834 residents, sits in a unique microclimate where the sea breeze meets the agricultural tradition of the inland town. We specialize in creating sustainable, beautiful gardens that thrive in these conditions. When planning your investment, keep in mind that in Teulada a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on the complexity of the hardscaping and the maturity of the plants chosen. My goal is to ensure your terrace in Pla del Mar or your villa garden becomes a functional sanctuary that adds long-term value to your property while surviving the local heat.

Local Regulations and Technical Standards for Teulada Landscaping

Navigating the legal landscape in Teulada-Moraira is essential to avoid fines and ensure your investment is protected. All our structural installations, such as awnings and motorized shade systems, strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which governs wind resistance and safety requirements for external blinds and shutters. Beyond technical product standards, we must comply with the local Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) of Teulada. The town hall is particularly strict about landscape protection and the visual impact of new constructions on the coastline.

For most landscaping projects involving planting or minor decorative changes, a 'Comunicación Previa' is sufficient. However, if your project includes structural walls, significant excavations, or permanent pergolas, we must apply for an 'Obra Menor' (Minor Works License) at the Ayuntamiento. Under the PGOU and the regional Valencian Law of Territory, Urbanism, and Landscape (LOTUP), there are specific height limits for perimeter fences—often restricted to 1 meter of solid wall topped by a fence or hedge—to maintain the open, airy feel of the Marina Alta. We handle the technical documentation required to ensure your garden meets all municipal requirements regarding drainage, setback distances from neighbors, and the preservation of protected Mediterranean species.
