Frequently asked questions about renovations in Mijas
Can I extend my villa in Mijas?
It depends on the planning framework applicable to your plot (buildability, occupation, setbacks, maximum height). Before designing, we run a feasibility study using the General Plan and ordinances. If viable, we draft the extension project and file the major works licence.
Do I need a licence to build a masonry pool in Mijas?
Yes. A built pool requires a major works licence with a technical project, structural report and safety study. If it is the plot’s first pool, water supply, drainage and treatment connections must be planned. We handle the full package.
Can I renovate a traditional house in Mijas Pueblo?
Yes, respecting the old-town aesthetic ordinance: whitewash, curved-tile roof, traditional joinery, ironwork and specific colours. Internally there is near-total freedom. We design with heritage judgement and coordinate the required façade approvals.
How long does Mijas City Council take to issue a licence?
Minor works with a declaración responsable can start the same day. Major works licences in Mijas typically resolve in 4–8 months depending on service workload and project complexity. Filing everything correctly the first time is decisive.
Can you coordinate the renovation while I am away from Mijas?
Yes. It is routine with foreign owners or clients from other cities. We report weekly with photos and video, resolve decisions by video call and can act under notarial power of attorney for licence filings.

About Mijas
Mijas is one of the largest and most varied municipalities on the Costa del Sol. Mijas Pueblo is dominated by traditional whitewashed houses on narrow streets with aesthetic protection. Las Lagunas is the residential-commercial core with flats, townhouses and detached homes. Mijas Costa concentrates urbanisations and villas on first and second lines (El Chaparral, Sitio de Calahonda, Riviera del Sol).
Mijas City Council has a licence service under heavy load given the municipality’s building activity. Filing the project fully documented up front dramatically reduces timelines. Plot extensions and built pools require a major works licence with a chartered architect’s project.
In Mijas Pueblo, the townscape is protected and works to façades, roofs, joinery or colour are regulated by ordinance. In Mijas Costa, many urbanisations have their own community rules on top of the municipal licence. We check both before starting any work.
