What we do

Five ways
to build well.

New build, full renovation, main contractor, architecture studio and rehabilitation. Five complementary services under one team — same firm, same technical standards.

An architecture studio that signs the project and a construction firm that builds it do not always speak the same language. At Urbancat they are the same voice since 2003.

The five services you will find are not independent business lines: they are phases of the same craft. Someone who comes with a plot may need architecture, contracting and project management. Someone with a home to renovate may only need execution. We work at any of those stages with the same methodology.

Service 01

Build new build.

We build from scratch. Single-family homes, multi-family buildings and residential developments. From the drawing signed by our studio to the turnkey handover, with full control over every trade, every material and every deadline.

  • Preliminary design and integrated concept
  • Basic and executive project
  • Planning licences and permits
  • Trades coordination
  • Site management and certifications
  • Turnkey handover

Service 02

Full renovations.

We renovate homes, commercial premises and offices to the same technical standards as new build. An intervention that rethinks the space from top to bottom, with no compromise for quick fixes.

  • Layout redesign
  • New installations (electrical, plumbing, HVAC)
  • High-specification kitchens and bathrooms
  • Flooring and wall finishes
  • Bespoke joinery
  • Coordination under single management

Service 03

Main contractor.

When the project already exists — signed by the client's architect — we take over. One single point of contact, one single party accountable to the developer. No friction between design and execution.

  • Technical review of the project
  • Fixed quote broken down by line items
  • Planning and delivery milestones
  • Trades coordination
  • Ongoing quality control
  • Final as-built documentation

07 · How to decide

Which service do you need?

Three quick questions to identify your situation. If you are unsure, we will guide you at the first technical visit with no obligation.

01

Do you have a plot or are you building from scratch?

You need a technical project, licences and full execution. The new build service is what you need, or, if you already have a project, the main contractor service.

Go to new build →
02

Do you want to renovate an existing home?

If it is a full intervention — layout, installations, finishes — it is a full renovation. If you only need to execute an external project, the main contractor service applies.

Go to renovations →
03

Does your building need rehabilitation or an ITE?

Facades, roofs, energy efficiency, structural reinforcement. We also manage Next Gen grants and coordination with the residents' community.
