Buying property in need of updating

LeroyMerlin at Zenia Boulevard is about 25 minutes away and does pretty much everything B & Q does. Not sure about more local availability only just arrived ourselves.

Thank you so much.

There are lots of DIY stores within about 20 minutes....Leroy Merlin...Aki, The General Store, Alpuente, Brico Depot...google them to see what they do! Lots of smaller independent kitchen suppliers too that aren't much more expensive. Theres always Ikea!

Hi Rosemarie,

I have been in the process of refurbishing an apartment in Santiago La Ribera for the past year, have fitted new windows, plaster boarded  and insulated the whole apartment new internal doors and kitchen,

I have obviously used most of the places mentioned but bought the kitchen from Ikea which had a very good choice and also do a fitting service which I used (wish I had not because so easy to fit) but that is hind site.

If you would like any help or advice I will be more than welcome to give this.

I have been in Spain for 20+ years 

Take care and best wishes

Thank you so much Ed.  If we end up buying a house that needs updating I think you might be hearing from us.  

All the best

Thank you.  I think I'll have to get a good sat ab to find my way about.

Best wishes

The reason Spanish homes have small windows is to keep the near-50 degree summer heat at bay....the sun is best treated as an enemy, to be kept outside!
