Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking for professional landscaping in Jijona, you have come to the right place. Living in the "cradle of turrón" offers a unique lifestyle, but the inland climate of L'Alacantí presents specific challenges for any outdoor space. With a population of approximately 7,307 residents, Jijona transitions from the Mediterranean influence to the rugged terrain of the Carrasqueta, meaning your garden must withstand both intense summer heat and colder winter nights. Whether you own a villa in the quiet urbanisations of Segorb and Nuches, a traditional townhouse in the historic Arrabal, or a rural property near La Sarga or El Espart, we understand the local soil and climate conditions perfectly. My goal is to transform your plot into a functional, beautiful extension of your home. Regarding investment, in Jijona a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on whether you choose hardscaping, irrigation systems, or native Mediterranean planting. We focus on durability and water efficiency to ensure your garden thrives year-round in this beautiful part of Alicante.

Regulations and Permits for Landscaping in Jijona

Navigating the legal requirements for outdoor renovations in the Valencian Community is essential to avoid fines or future legal issues. In Jijona, all exterior modifications are governed by the local Urban Plan (PGOU), which is currently adapted to the LOTUP (Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje) of the Generalitat Valenciana. This regional framework ensures that any development respects the landscape and urban harmony of the municipality.

For most landscaping projects, such as planting, installing irrigation, or minor decorative changes, you will only need to file a "Declaración Responsable" or a "Comunicación Previa" for an "Obra Menor" (minor work) at the Jijona Town Hall (Ayuntamiento). This is a relatively fast process that allows you to start work once the fee is paid and the documents are submitted. However, if your project involves structural elements like large retaining walls, swimming pools, or permanent pergolas that exceed certain heights, a "Licencia de Obra Mayor" (major work license) will be required. This involves a technical project signed by an architect or engineer.

Additionally, for any sun protection installations like awnings or bioclimatic pergolas, we strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates the performance and safety requirements for external blinds and awnings. If your property is located within the historic Arrabal or the protected old town, additional aesthetic restrictions regarding colours and materials may apply to preserve the traditional character of Jijona. We handle the technical documentation to ensure your project complies with all local ordinances and the latest LOTUP updates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does landscaping cost in Jijona?
The cost generally ranges between 30 € and 120 € per square metre. This variation depends on the complexity of the design, the quality of materials—such as natural stone versus gravel—and the type of vegetation selected. For instance, a simple xeriscape (low-water garden) in Nuches will be more affordable than a project in Segorb involving extensive masonry, outdoor lighting, and mature trees. We always provide a fixed quote to avoid surprises.
Do I need a licence for my garden project?
Yes, most landscaping work in Jijona requires at least a "Comunicación Previa" for an "Obra Menor." This is a simple administrative step for things like tiling a patio or installing a new fence. However, if you are planning significant excavations or building permanent structures, a "Licencia de Obra Mayor" is necessary. Our team can guide you through the application process at the Ayuntamiento to ensure everything is legal.
How long does a typical landscaping project take?
A standard residential garden project in Jijona usually takes between two to four weeks from the moment we start on-site. Smaller interventions, like installing artificial grass or a new irrigation system in a townhouse patio, can be finished in just a few days. Larger estates in areas like La Sarga that require earthmoving and construction of pergolas may take longer. We provide a clear timeline before starting.
Do you cover all areas of Jijona?
Absolutely. We provide services throughout the entire municipality of Jijona and the wider L'Alacantí comarca. This includes the urban centre, the historic Arrabal district, and all surrounding urbanisations and rural areas such as Segorb, Nuches, La Sarga, and El Espart. No matter if your property is a modern villa or a rustic finca, our team is equipped to reach your location.
What warranty do you offer on your work?
We offer a comprehensive two-year warranty on all construction and hardscaping elements, such as paving and walls. For mechanical installations like automatic irrigation or LED lighting, we honour the manufacturer's warranty, usually three years. Regarding plants, we provide a "settlement guarantee" to ensure that your new Mediterranean flora adapts correctly to the Jijona climate during the first few months.
Can you design a low-maintenance garden for the Jijona climate?
Yes, this is our specialty. Given the inland climate of Jijona, which can be quite dry, we recommend "Xeriscaping." This involves using native plants like lavender, rosemary, and olive trees that require very little water once established. By combining these with decorative gravel, volcanic rock, and efficient drip irrigation, we create beautiful spaces that look great year-round with minimal effort and water consumption.
Do you install artificial grass in Jijona?
We do, and it is a very popular choice for homeowners in Nuches and Segorb who want a green look without the high water bills of natural turf. We only install high-quality, UV-resistant artificial grass that can withstand the intense Alicante sun without losing its colour or shape. We ensure proper drainage and a professional base layer to prevent weeds and sagging over time.
