Restoring
in Umbria
Umbria
is rapidly becoming known for it’s fine wine and food
and has become more and more popular with foreign buyers
who are looking to enjoy all Italy has to offer. Umbria
is blessed with rich architecture ranging from ancient palaces
to 16th century farmhouses to historical properties in medieval
centers.
Umbrian architecture is unique and in Umbria we have a team
that consists of Bi-lingual Architects, project managers
and master restorers. We have several groups of reliable
contractors and Italian artisans that are skilled in all
aspects of rebuilding and conservation as well as complete
restoration and renovation and have a deep appreciation
for Umbria’s architecture and style.
We also provide comprehensive management and coordination
for restoration, renovation and home improvement projects.
Acting as an extension of the owner, we monitor and help
coordinate the work of all members of the project team.
After the restoration or renovation process begins, our
project managers will monitor and control all the works,
financials and other aspects of the building process. There
are daily visits to the site and compiled up- to- date detailed
photographic reports on how the work is proceeding. The
progress reports up to date designs, photographs, permit
status and costs.
ORGANIZATION &PLANNING
& COST
Restoration and Reconstruction in Umbria
The general rule of thumb when considering a renovation/reconstruction
project is to estimate between 750 Euro a square meter to
1000 Euro a square meter. Many things will influence the
price of a reconstruction or renovation. The quality of
the materials will have a large effect on the overall price.
Handmade terracotta tiles are considerably more expensive
then manufactured ones and chestnut beams or more expensive
than pine.
The age of the building can yield unforeseen surprises.
It is not uncommon to open a wall to allow for a door or
arch of a historical building and discover a 200 kilogram
stone.
Location also plays a factor in your renovation/restoration
costs. Many of these structures are located down narrow
and winding "white roads" that make the passage
of larger trucks difficult.
We currently have several
projects underway in Todi , Orvieto, Terni, Fano and other
areas and would be glad to provide site visits.
