Town Flats · Upper Floors · Kitchens · Bathrooms
Callosa d'en Sarrià is an inland town, so its flats are everyday homes rather than holiday apartments. Reforms here are about comfort, storage and sensible running costs for people who actually live in them.
Dragon Reforms works out of Callosa d'en Sarrià, and the town's flats are as familiar to us as anywhere. They tend to be in modest buildings of a few storeys, close to shops and services, in a valley setting where life carries on regardless of the season.
Unlike the coast, there is little of the holiday-flat market here. Most owners live in their apartment, or have inherited one in the family, and want it to work well for years. That makes durability and practical layout more important than fashion.
A reform may be the whole flat, stripped and rebuilt, or one part of it: a bathroom that no longer works, a kitchen with too little room, or wiring that is decades old and was never meant to run a modern household.
Daily living
A flat that is someone's home faces different demands from a holiday let. The kitchen is used three times a day, storage is needed for a full household, and the bathroom has to suit all ages. We design for the household, starting with how you move through the flat.
Practical improvements often matter more than showy ones: a bigger worktop, more power points where you need them, a shower that is easy to step into, wardrobes that use awkward corners. These are the changes people notice every single day.
If accessibility is part of the picture, tell us early. Changes made at the design stage are far cheaper than alterations afterwards, and we also run a dedicated disability living service for adaptations of this kind. It is much easier to design access in than to add it later.
Climate
The valley gets warm summers and noticeably cooler winter nights, and flats in older buildings may have thin walls, single-glazed windows and little insulation. A reform is the right time to improve how the flat holds its temperature through the year.
New windows with good seals, shutters that close properly and a sensible air conditioning arrangement, positioned so that units do not upset the neighbours or the facade, usually bring the largest gain in comfort for the least disruption. Comfort here rarely needs elaborate systems.
Heating deserves the same thought as cooling, because an inland flat can feel cold on a clear January night, and a system chosen only for summer leaves you shivering when the temperature falls. We discuss heating at the first visit, not as an afterthought.
Hidden services
In flats that have not been touched for a generation, the wiring and plumbing are often the real age of the apartment. Old cabling, patched pipes and missing safety devices are not visible, yet they are the most important things to put right.
We assess these at the survey, and recommend renewing them while walls and floors are open for other work, because that is when it costs least and causes least mess. Cutting into new tiles later is a poor alternative. Tidy chases and neat repairs keep the finish looking professional.
Wherever we change electrics, we explain what has been done, so the owner understands the result and not just the finish, and knows what to ask about if a question arises later. Clear records help any future owner or electrician.
How it works
A visit is easy to arrange, since the town is our base. We look at the flat, talk through your priorities and follow with a written quotation, which costs nothing and describes each room in turn, so that you can see where the money would go.
One project manager coordinates the trades and speaks with the community administrator where needed. If you live elsewhere for part of the year, photographs and calls keep you in touch. A guarantee covers the completed work, and the quotation spells out what it includes.
Questions
Yes. Apartments are a normal part of our work, and our office is in Callosa d'en Sarrià. We handle everything from a single bathroom to a full strip-out, with one team managing every trade. Very small jobs are fine too.
Often, yes. Old wiring and pipework are hidden and age quietly. If walls and floors are being opened anyway, renewing the services at the same time is usually the most sensible and least disruptive moment to do it.
Yes. Level-access showers, wider circulation and better lighting can be built into a reform. We also have a separate disability living service, and we are happy to discuss which adaptations suit the person who will use the flat.
Interior work is generally a private matter, but noise hours, facade changes and anything affecting shared areas usually involve the community. We advise what to raise, and say whether a licence is likely to be needed.
Across the area
Flat reforms depend heavily on the building and its setting, be it an inland town or a seafront block. Nearby pages show how we handle apartments where the circumstances and the typical owner are rather different.
