Precast concrete houses in Barcelona

A precast concrete house is built with panels made in a factory (walls, floor slabs and façades) and assembled on the plot. The concrete is produced with controlled humidity and temperature, tolerances are tighter and assembly is much faster than in conventional construction.

It is not a catalogue house: with made-to-measure panels almost any design is possible. We explain it in more detail in what a prefabricated or industrialised house is.

• Better cost control, with a fixed price for the system.
• Concrete made to factory quality standards.
• Assembly in weeks, not months.
• A bespoke house, not a catalogue model.
• An insulated envelope from day one.

1. Before you buy the plot: we check what can be built (buildable area, height, setbacks). A consultation with an architect costs €90 + VAT for the first hour.
2. Preliminary design: we design the house with the panel system and check it is feasible. From €2,600 + VAT for a house of about 100 m² in Barcelona. If it is not feasible, you do not have to commission the next stages.
3. Design and permit: we draw up the basic and detailed design coordinated with the manufacturer and submit it to the town council.
4. Quote comparison: using the project measurements, we ask several manufacturers and contractors for prices so you can compare like-for-like quotes.
5. Site supervision: we oversee the foundations, panel assembly, building services and finishes, through to the final certificate and the habitability certificate.

A detached house of 100 to 250 m² with standard finishes costs around €2,150–2,550/m² + VAT in the Barcelona area; a terraced house, €1,800–2,150/m² + VAT. That is the finished house, not the kit: catalogue prices usually leave out foundations, building services, finishes, transport and assembly.

We designed and supervised a detached house with insulated precast concrete walls, built with the company Arumí. The envelope was almost complete in under 3 weeks, and the façades and the floor and roof structures were assembled in 4 weeks.
