Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you have chosen to live in the peaceful surroundings of Vallat, within the stunning L'Alt Millars comarca, you already know that our rugged inland climate requires a specific approach to outdoor living. Whether your property is located in the established areas of Ganalur, near the refreshing Fuente de la Salud, or tucked away in the rustic spots of Partida de la Solana or Partida del Río, creating a functional garden is about balancing beauty with resilience. With a tiny population of approximately 71 residents, Vallat offers an intimate connection to nature that few places can match. My role is to ensure that your landscaping in Vallat respects this unique environment while providing you with a comfortable retreat from the summer heat and the crisp mountain winters. We understand the logistics of working in smaller inland villages, ensuring materials and labour are managed efficiently. To give you a starting point, in Vallat a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on the complexity of the terrain and the materials selected for your specific project.

Regulations and Permits in Vallat

Navigating the legal requirements for outdoor renovations in a small municipality like Vallat requires local expertise. All our installations involving solar protection, such as awnings or pergolas, strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, ensuring safety and resistance against the winds often funneled through the Mijares valley. Beyond technical standards, any significant structural change is subject to the local municipal ordinances and the PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana).

Specifically, landscaping and construction projects in Vallat are subject to the LOTUP (Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje) and the Plan General approved in 2017. Because Vallat is nestled in a sensitive ecological area, any project requires special attention to landscape integration, particularly for properties near the Mijares river or within the protected rural zones. For most landscaping tasks, we distinguish between an 'Obra Menor' (minor works) permit for simple paving or fencing, and a more complex municipal licence for structural changes or significant earthworks. We handle the communication with the Ayuntamiento de Vallat to ensure your project is fully compliant before the first stone is laid.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does landscaping cost in Vallat?
The cost generally ranges between 30 €/m² for basic garden refreshes and 120 €/m² for comprehensive projects involving hardscaping, irrigation, and lighting. Factors such as the slope of your land in areas like Partida de la Solana and the choice of indigenous versus exotic plants will influence the final budget. We always provide a fixed quote to avoid surprises.
Do I need a licence for my landscaping project?
Yes, most outdoor improvements in Vallat require at least a 'comunicación previa' or an 'obra menor' permit from the town hall. If your project involves structural walls or significant changes to the land profile near the river, a more detailed technical project might be necessary under the 2017 Plan General. We assist in determining exactly what your specific plot requires.
How long does it take to complete a project?
A standard residential project in Vallat typically takes between two to four weeks once the permits are granted. Smaller interventions, such as installing a pergola or a new irrigation system, can often be completed in just a few days. We provide a clear schedule during the quoting phase so you can plan your time accordingly.
Do you cover Vallat and the surrounding L'Alt Millars area?
Absolutely. We are fully mobile and regularly work in Vallat and neighbouring villages. We have the logistics in place to transport materials and machinery to the more narrow or remote access points found in the village centre or the surrounding partidas like Partida del Río.
What warranty do you provide on your work?
We provide a comprehensive two-year warranty on all installation work and labour. For specific materials like artificial grass, stone pavers, or aluminium structures, the manufacturer warranties often extend up to 10 or 15 years. My goal is to ensure your investment in Vallat stands up to the inland weather for decades.
Is it possible to have a low-maintenance garden in Vallat's climate?
Yes, this is actually our speciality for inland properties. By using xeriscaping techniques, local stone, and Mediterranean plants that thrive in the L'Alt Millars climate, we can create a stunning space that requires very little water and minimal pruning, allowing you to enjoy the scenery without the constant chores.
Can you help with irrigation systems for the dry summers?
Certainly. Given the hot summers in the province of Castellón, an automated drip irrigation system is essential. We design systems that maximise water efficiency, which is particularly important in rural areas, ensuring your plants survive the peak heat of July and August while keeping your water bills manageable.
