Hola, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you have chosen to live in the beautiful inland enclave of Tibi, within the L'Alcoià comarca, you already know that our landscape is as rugged as it is rewarding. With a population of around 1,731 residents, this area offers a peaceful retreat, but the inland climate—characterized by scorching summers and surprisingly frosty winters—requires a specialized approach to outdoor living. Whether you are situated in the sprawling plots of Finca Terol, the pine-filled heights of Maigmó, or the established streets of Pinares del Mecli, Bonaire, and El Aljibe, achieving a sustainable garden is a unique challenge. Professional landscaping in Tibi must account for the rocky terrain and the specific water needs of the region. At TuExterior, we balance aesthetics with the practicalities of the Alicante mountains. To give you a baseline for your project, in Tibi a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on whether you opt for hardscaping, artificial turf, or complex Mediterranean xeriscaping.

How we work

Step 1: Initial Consultation and Contact Reach out to us via our web form or phone to discuss your vision for your Tibi property, whether it is a modern terrace or a large rustic plot.

Step 2: Site Visit and Professional Measuring I will personally visit your home in areas like Finca Terol or the village center to assess the soil quality, sun orientation, and take precise topographical measurements.

Step 3: Detailed Design and Free Quote We provide a comprehensive proposal including 3D visualizations and a transparent breakdown of costs, ensuring the project aligns with your budget and the local climate.

Step 4: Professional Installation and Handover Our specialized teams execute the build, from irrigation and lighting to planting and paving, followed by a final walkthrough to ensure every detail meets our high standards.

Navigating Local Regulations and Permits

Understanding the legal framework is essential before breaking ground in Tibi. All construction and significant landscaping works in the Valencian Community are governed by the LOTUP (Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje). Depending on the scope of your project, you will likely need to apply for an "Obra Menor" (Minor Works) permit at the Tibi Ayuntamiento. This covers elements like low perimeter walls, paving, and pergolas. However, if you are planning major structural changes, such as a swimming pool or a retaining wall over a certain height, a "Licencia de Obra Mayor" (Major Works) is required, necessitating a project signed by an architect.

Furthermore, any outdoor installations like awnings or motorized shades must comply with the UNE-EN 13561 standard for wind resistance and safety. It is particularly important to note the situation in urbanizations like Finca Terol. Many of these areas are currently undergoing complex infrastructure legalization and forced reparcelación processes. This means that certain permits may be temporarily restricted or subject to specific conditions regarding the "cuotas de urbanización." At TuExterior, we stay updated on the municipal PGOU (General Plan) to ensure your landscaping project does not run afoul of local urbanistic requirements or environmental protection zones near the Maigmó natural park.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does landscaping cost in Tibi?
The cost of landscaping in Tibi typically ranges between 30 €/m² for basic garden clearing and planting, up to 120 €/m² for premium projects involving high-end stone masonry, custom lighting, and advanced irrigation systems. Factors such as the steepness of the terrain in areas like Maigmó and the ease of access for machinery will influence the final price. We always provide a fixed-price quote after a site visit to avoid any hidden surprises.
Do I need a licence for landscaping?
Yes, most landscaping projects require at least a "Declaración Responsable" or a "Licencia de Obra Menor" from the Tibi Town Hall. This is especially true if you are installing hard surfaces, building walls, or changing the exterior appearance of the property. For residents in Finca Terol, we must be extra cautious to ensure the work aligns with the ongoing legalization processes of the urbanization. We can assist you in navigating these administrative requirements.
How long does it take to complete a project?
A standard residential project usually takes between 2 to 4 weeks once the materials are on-site and permits are granted. Smaller interventions, like installing artificial grass or a simple irrigation system, can be finished in a few days. Larger estates requiring extensive earthmoving or structural landscaping can take longer. We provide a clear timeline during the quoting phase so you can plan your outdoor use accordingly.
Do you cover all areas of Tibi?
Absolutely. We provide full landscaping services across the entire municipality, including the village center and all major urbanizations such as Finca Terol, Maigmó, Bonaire, Pinares del Mecli, and El Aljibe. Our team is accustomed to the specific logistical challenges of the mountain roads and the varying soil types found throughout the L'Alcoià region.
What kind of warranty do you offer?
We provide a standard two-year warranty on all construction elements and hardscaping. For plants and trees, we offer a "take-root" guarantee provided that an automated irrigation system installed by us is in place. We also ensure that all mechanical elements, such as motorized pergolas or pumps, are covered by their respective manufacturer warranties, typically ranging from 2 to 5 years.
Can you design a low-maintenance garden for the Tibi climate?
Yes, this is our specialty. Given the high temperatures in summer and the occasional frost in winter, we recommend xeriscaping. This involves using native Mediterranean species like lavender, rosemary, and olive trees, combined with decorative gravel or high-quality artificial turf. This approach significantly reduces water consumption and the time you need to spend on upkeep, allowing you to enjoy the views of the Maigmó instead of weeding.
How do you handle the rocky soil typical of the Tibi mountains?
Tibi is known for its hard, rocky ground which can make planting difficult. We use specialized machinery, such as mini-excavators with hydraulic hammers, to prepare the ground correctly. We also often recommend raised planters or importing high-quality topsoil to ensure that your new plants have the best possible environment to grow, as the natural "caliche" or rock layers can otherwise stunt root development.
