BluePeak is your construction company in Porto.

We specialise in construction with energy certification A or higher. We use high-efficiency thermal insulation, solar panels, rainwater harvesting systems, and ecological materials. We build homes prepared for the future.

We offer a complete architecture and engineering service through our in-house team. Alternatively, we work with projects provided by the client. In both cases, we guarantee total coordination between project and execution.

A single-family house typically takes 12 to 18 months from the start of construction. This timeframe does not include the licensing phase, which can add 3-6 months. We provide detailed schedules with milestones and expected dates.

We operate mainly in the Lisboa and Tagus Valley region, but we evaluate projects throughout the national territory. For locations outside our usual area, we analyse viability on a case-by-case basis and present specific conditions.

The average construction cost ranges from €1,200 to €2,000 per square metre, depending on finishes and specifications. A 200m² house can cost between €240,000 and €400,000. We prepare detailed quotations after analysing the project.

In Porto, a complete kitchen renovation typically takes 2 to 4 weeks. This timeframe can vary depending on the need for plumbing or electrical alterations, especially in older city properties.

Yes, all our quotations are completely free and without obligation. We schedule a visit to the site to assess the project and present a detailed proposal with itemised costs.

It depends on scope. Interior works that don't touch the structure or façade and don't increase floor area are generally exempt from prior control under Portuguese planning law (RJUE). If the work affects structural elements, the façade, or the building sits in a protected zone — like Porto's historic centre — prior notification or a licence from the city hall becomes necessary. BluePeak confirms the framing during the technical visit and prepares the paperwork.

In pre-1950s granite buildings the most frequent issues are rising damp in the walls, timber floors with deformation or localised rot, obsolete water and electrical systems, and no insulation. None of these makes a renovation unviable — but they should be diagnosed at the technical visit so the quote reflects the building's real condition.

Yes. The historic centre is World Heritage and sits within an ARU, so interventions on façades, exterior window frames and heritage elements follow specific rules and may require additional approvals. On the other hand, ARU location can unlock tax benefits for rehabilitation. Inside the apartments themselves, there is usually broad freedom to intervene.
