Bioclimatic Pergolas in Ondara

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are reading this, you likely enjoy the unique lifestyle we share here in the Marina Alta. Living in Ondara offers a wonderful balance between the traditional charm of the town centre and the modern comfort of residential areas like Sector 9A or the peaceful surroundings of Pamis and Vinyals. With a population of approximately 7,522 residents, Ondara is a vibrant hub, but our inland climate presents specific challenges for outdoor living. Unlike the immediate coastline, we often experience slightly higher temperatures in summer and more trapped humidity in winter. This is why installing a bioclimatic pergola in Ondara has become the preferred solution for my clients in urbanisations such as Pla de la Font or Pujades. These intelligent structures allow you to regulate airflow and sunlight through motorized slats, creating a microclimate on your terrace regardless of the heat. Regarding investment, in Ondara a bioclimatic pergola typically runs 300-780 €/m² including local labour, depending on the complexity of the site and the chosen finishes. My goal is to ensure your outdoor space becomes the most used "room" in your home, blending durability with the aesthetic elegance your property deserves.

Regulations and Permits for Pergolas in Ondara

Navigating the local bureaucracy is a crucial part of my job at TuExterior. In Ondara, the installation of a bioclimatic pergola is governed by the municipal PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana) and specific local ordinances regarding occupancy and aesthetics. Because these structures are technically "omissible" or non-permanent (as they do not have fixed brick walls), they are generally classified under the 'Obra Menor' (Minor Works) category. However, the requirements can change if you live in a protected area of the old town or a specific residential complex with its own internal rules.

Furthermore, all our installations strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates the safety and performance requirements for external blinds and awnings. This European standard ensures that the structure can withstand specific wind loads and snow pressure, which is vital given the occasional "Gota Fría" storms we experience in the Marina Alta. Before we start, I will help you determine if a simple 'Comunicación Previa' is sufficient or if a more formal 'Licencia de Obra Menor' is required by the Ondara Town Hall (Ayuntamiento), ensuring your investment is 100% legal and protected against future administrative issues.
