Guimarães is a municipality in the district of Braga (Norte region). BluePeak carries out work across the whole municipality, including Oliveira, São Paio e São Sebastião (centro histórico), Creixomil, Azurém and Costa.
Building stock and typical works in Guimarães
Guimarães has one of the country's best-preserved historic centres — a UNESCO World Heritage site — with medieval and 16th-century buildings of granite and timber-frame infill, wooden balconies and traditional roofs, where any rehabilitation balances modern comfort with preservation. Outside the walls, Creixomil, Azurém and the city's surroundings grew with 1970s-2000s concrete buildings and dynamic industrial areas, and the municipality's towns are rich in family houses. Work splits between careful heritage rehabilitation in the centre and mainstream modernisation elsewhere.
Licensing in Guimarães
In the classified historic centre, interventions — especially on façades, window frames, roofs and timber elements — follow demanding heritage rules and may require additional approvals; the centre also falls within an ARU, with potential tax benefits. Outside those zones the general planning rules apply, with processes at Guimarães city hall when work exceeds interior scope — a process BluePeak runs.

Frequently asked questions.
How long does a house renovation take?
Complete house renovation takes between 3 to 6 months. Simpler projects can complete in 2-3 months. Rehabilitation of old houses or extensions can extend to 8-12 months, including licensing time. We set realistic deadlines from the start.
How much does a house renovation cost?
House renovation costs vary greatly depending on size and condition. Average renovation costs €500 to €1,000 per m². For a 150m² house, expect €75,000 to €150,000. Deep rehabilitation of old houses may cost more. We assess each case and provide detailed quotes.
What is the average timeframe for renovation in Guimarães?
In Guimarães, an apartment renovation takes an average of 4 to 6 weeks. For projects in the historic centre, more time may be needed due to licensing processes.
Do you work with properties in Guimarães historic centre?
Yes, we have experience in rehabilitating buildings in the Guimarães historic centre, a World Heritage Site. We know the specific regulations and work in compliance with preservation requirements.
Does BluePeak carry out works in Guimarães?
Yes, Guimarães is an important area for BluePeak. We work throughout the city, from the historic centre to peripheral parishes such as Azurém, Creixomil, and São Torcato.
In which areas of Portugal does BluePeak operate?
We operate throughout mainland Portugal, with local teams in the North, Centre and South. We have a stronger presence in the metropolitan areas of Lisbon and Porto, but we carry out projects in any region.
Does BluePeak guarantee its work?
Yes, we offer a 5-year guarantee on all our construction and renovation work. This guarantee covers workmanship defects and materials applied by our team.
What is the payment schedule for the works?
We work with a phased payment system: typically 30% at the start, 40% midway through the project and 30% upon completion. We also offer financing through partners for larger projects.
Does BluePeak offer free quotations?
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.
Can I freely renovate a house in Guimarães' historic centre?
Inside, there is considerable freedom; outside, no — façades, window frames, wooden balconies and roofs in the UNESCO-classified centre follow strict heritage rules and compatible materials. It's a context where rehabilitation experience makes all the difference: BluePeak designs solutions that pass licensing without sacrificing comfort.
Does rehabilitation in central Guimarães carry tax benefits?
The centre falls within an ARU, and eligible rehabilitation works may benefit from tax advantages, such as reduced VAT on the contract and property-tax benefits, subject to legal requirements. BluePeak explains the framing applicable to your case at the quoting stage.
What problems appear in old Guimarães houses?
Timber structures with distortion or localised rot, weakened timber-frame infill walls, damp in granite walls and traditional roofs at end of life are the most common. All have established technical solutions — the key is a correct diagnosis at the technical visit, so the quote reflects the building's real condition.
