Frequently asked questions about renovations in Estepona
What licence do I need to renovate a house in Estepona old town?
Any renovation in the old town requires a municipal licence. Works affecting façade, roof or protected elements are processed as major works with a technical project and compliance with heritage rules. Interior works without structural or layout changes usually qualify as minor works.
Can I change windows and façade colour in central Estepona?
Not freely. The old town has regulated colour palettes and materials. Changes to façade, external joinery, signs or awnings need Council approval per the aesthetic ordinance. We submit the application with colour samples and a joinery datasheet before buying materials.
How much does it cost to renovate an apartment on the New Golden Mile?
It depends on scope and finishes. A full renovation of a standard apartment with mid-to-high specification falls within a wide range; we deliver an itemised quote after the free site visit. We do not work with closed price-per-square-metre figures because they hide real quality differences.
Can renovation happen without disrupting the community of neighbours?
Yes, by respecting work and rest hours, coordinating lift use for debris removal, protecting common areas and sharing the schedule with the community administrator. It is part of our standard protocol in Estepona urbanisations.
Can you handle the licence while I am away from Estepona?
Yes. With a simple notarial power of attorney we file licences, pay fees and respond to requests on your behalf. We send you a stamped copy of every filing and weekly updates on the file status.

About Estepona
Estepona blends a beautifully restored old town with a coastal strip —the New Golden Mile— where most recent residential development is concentrated. Renovating in Estepona means understanding the difference between a protected townhouse in the old core and an apartment inside a gated community with its own by-laws.
Estepona City Council has driven a strong urban renewal programme in the historic centre, with controlled colour palettes, murals and improved public realm. Any work affecting façades, roofs or windows in the historic centre needs specific authorisation and must respect the overall image.
In the new zones —El Paraíso, Bel Air, Atalaya, Cancelada, Selwo— gated communities of villas, townhouses and apartments predominate. We file licences, coordinate with residents’ committees and execute with local suppliers to secure schedule and warranty in areas with high international-owner turnover.
