About these dates
This timeline uses registered construction and renovation years and the latest available certificate year. It is not a complete history. Renovation records may cover only part of the building; certification does not establish when works were carried out.

Building renovations
Renovation class
R — Integral rehabilitationCatastro’s strongest renovation category for the affected part of the building.
Renovation scale
Recorded coverage: approximately 80%The renovation marker applies to a substantial part of the building, based on its share of the constructed area recorded in Catastro.
A meaningful part of the building may have been modernised, but the record does not identify the exact improvements.
Do not assume that insulation, windows, wiring, plumbing, lifts or common areas were all renewed. Ask which areas were affected and check permits, invoices and inspection records.
Building standards
Built before general post-war minimum housing requirements; construction quality varies greatly.
Noise Insulation estimated
Voices, television and music through separating walls and floors
How requirements evolved
Sound insulation depended mainly on construction type and any rules applicable to the building.
Separating elements: R ≥45 dBA
Historical benchmark — not an estimated value for this building.
Historical and current acoustic values are not directly comparable.
Protected rooms: DnT,A ≥50 dBA
Footsteps, moving furniture and objects falling on the floor above
How requirements evolved
Sound insulation depended mainly on construction type and any rules applicable to the building.
Impact noise: Lₙ ≤80 dBA
Historical benchmark — not an estimated value for this building.
Historical and current acoustic values are not directly comparable.
Impact noise: L’nT,w ≤65 dB
The plausible construction-year range crosses an acoustic-regulation boundary. Actual performance may correspond to either period.
- Built in 1900
- Plausible year range: 1895–2012
- Construction-year confidence: medium
- Standard cadastral category — shown as context, not used to change the rating
- Building chronology: multi period
Before NBE-CA — The building predates Spain’s first general acoustic standard, so separating walls and floors were not designed under a common national sound-insulation framework.
A 2012 renovation is a possible improvement signal, not confirmation of acoustic work. The CAT record does not identify walls, floors, junctions or acoustic works.
Expected range from Construction Profile chronology and regulation period; actual wall, floor and building-services performance has not been measured.
Thermal Insulation estimated
How well the original building envelope is likely to retain indoor heat
How requirements evolved
Thermal performance depended mainly on wall, roof and window construction.
Roof ≤1.40 W/m²K
Light façade ≤1.20 W/m²K (≤200 kg/m²)
Heavy façade ≤1.80 W/m²K (>200 kg/m²)
Historical benchmark — not an estimated value for this building.
Roof ≤0.40 W/m²K
Walls ≤0.49 W/m²K
How well the building is likely to limit summer heat from direct sunlight
A recorded renovation may have improved insulation, but Catastro does not identify work to the façade, roof or windows.
Likely to lose indoor heat quickly in winter unless the envelope was upgraded later.
The plausible construction-year range crosses a thermal-regulation boundary. Actual performance may correspond to either period.
- Built in 1900
- Plausible year range: 1895–2012
- Construction-year confidence: medium
- Building chronology: multi period
- Standard cadastral category — shown as context, not used to change the rating
No general thermal standard — The building predates Spain’s general requirements for limiting heat loss through walls, roofs and windows.
Summer protection is a comparative building-level estimate. Window size and orientation, external blinds, ventilation, the exact apartment floor and air conditioning are not yet known.
Expected original envelope standard. Current windows, facade and roof insulation, thermal bridges and undocumented works are unknown.
