Discover the work phases of an Agmar project

One of the important factors to ensure deadlines and perfect delivery of an Agmar project is the logical process of well-defined construction phases, so that the project is designed appropriately, meeting legal requirements and customer satisfaction.

Agmar values ​​transparency, which is why it has a link on its website that allows its clients to have access to the progress of work on their investments. So that there is no doubt in following your work, today we will explain this construction process to you a little, so that you can visualize and understand our activities step by step which will end with an excellent project. Get ready to immerse yourself in our construction site and see all the work phases of a project:

1. Earth movement

It is preparing the ground to meet the project. In this process the terrain undergoes leveling changes through ground movements. The project of your life starts here!

2. Foundation

The foundation is the underground part of the structure and its function is to receive all the load of the building and transmit it appropriately to the ground.

The type of foundation chosen varies depending on some factors, including: the type of soil, the type of construction, the local climatic and environmental characteristics, etc. In order for the stability of the building to behave correctly, in this phase it is essential to carry out a detailed execution and control, both of the service performed and of the materials received and used, such as hardware and concrete.

3. Structure

It is the part of a building that is above ground level. In this phase the building is supported by pillars, beams and floors. These elements work with the foundation to provide physical stability to the project.

The Structural Design requires the building to support all the loads acting on it (its own weight, the weight of people, furniture, the force of the acting wind, etc.) transmitting them to the foundation. The structure can be made of conventional or pre-stressed reinforced concrete, as well as structural masonry (when the masonry itself constitutes the structure of the building), and the choice varies depending on the type of project.

At this stage of the works, it is extremely important that, at each stage, checks and technological checks are carried out on each of the materials and services involved in the execution, to ensure that every detail of the structural project is carried out with care. The teams involved in this service are periodically trained to carry out their tasks with excellence.

4. Freemasonry

In this phase, which we call closing the building, the elements for sealing and separating the spaces are positioned – external and internal walls – generally made of ceramic blocks, concrete blocks or plasterboard. Plant divisions vary depending on the project, as Agmar projects are flexible for changes even in the plant, allowing the customer to adapt the issues they deem important in their unit. Let’s start from here to dream together with you, and give your touch and your identity to the project.

Like the structure phase, the execution of the walls is also a controlled service, and we have specialized teams to carry out the service and the necessary checks, guaranteeing our quality standard that meets the standards and needs of our customers.

5. Internal linings

This is the phase of the work in which the vertical (walls) and horizontal (floors and ceilings) surfaces are regularised. In addition to being an important phase, since the coatings perform various functions in civil construction (protecting the seals, providing greater resistance, waterproofing, making the surfaces more hygienic (washable), improving the acoustic performance of the seals), this is a moment, considered by many, an important stage for the investor, since it defines the aesthetic aspect of each environment. To this end, Agmar has an excellent team of architects to come up with its standard architectural and decorative designs, all for the customer’s comfort and well-being!

Agmar also has a team to support the modifications and each client can add their own personality to the apartments. Our team is ready to assist with whatever is needed. The internal covering phase involves some steps which are as follows:

5.1 Mortar coating

It is a thin layer of mortar that prepares the walls to receive finishes, such as painting and ceramic coating.

5.2 Subfloor

It is a layer of mortar that prepares the surface of the slab/floor for laying or painting the floor.

5.3 Painting

It’s time to add color to this gray universe! This is the stage of the general painting job, where we will finish the walls and ceilings.

5.4 Ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware and natural stones

Phase of the works in which the covers will be installed. The materials vary depending on the decoration project; The materials that can be used are many and range from ceramic to porcelain to natural materials.

5.6 Wooden cabinets and doors

At this stage, the carpentry team goes to work to assemble the custom-made furniture, made of MDF. The unique feature of Agmar is the supply of furniture with custom-made wardrobes*, which are installed at this stage together with the wooden doors, always in collaboration with renowned companies and the best suppliers on the market, guaranteeing quality materials and finishes.

*The unit is delivered with all standard joinery installed, provided it has not undergone any modifications by the customer. The modified joinery will be delivered and installed after the keys have been handed over.

6. Structures

Installations are the stage where we put the building into operation. The entire electrical and plumbing infrastructure is installed, as well as complementary facilities. Below we will explain each of them:

6.1 Hydraulics

The sanitary systems consist of network systems for cold and hot water, rain water and primary and secondary waste water.

The crockery and metal are also installed at this stage; The specifications of these materials are previously described in the decoration project. Agmar always opts for refinement and quality and all tableware and metals are chosen with great care.

6.2 Electrical

The electrical installation phase is extremely important in the construction process, in addition to the functioning of the building and also the safety of everyone in this place, it is a phase where the infrastructure of the modified apartments lighting project is installed – which makes the project acquire new perspectives and sophistication.

6.3 Additional Services

In addition to electrical and sanitary systems, installation projects for TV, telephone, internet, gas, air conditioning, etc. are carried out. All apartments already have the complete infrastructure for these needs, with the possibility of adjustments, based on the specific needs of each customer.

7. External covering

At this stage, when the building’s external finishes and waterproofing are installed, Agmar’s designs begin to take on form and beauty, which will give each project a unique design and sophistication, helping to bring an elegant and modern look to the city. They are part of the external covering:

7.1 Facade

The cladding of the building facade is defined in the project, according to current regulations, and adapted to the design of the building as a whole.

An important aspect of Agmar projects is the ventilated facade (the finishing elements are installed away from the sealing masonry, with the help of inserts) which presents high productivity in its execution, combining thermal comfort with the energy efficiency provided by the system, as well as extending the maintenance period.

7.2 Aluminum frames

We call metal windows, gates and doors aluminum frames; they contribute to the aesthetics of the facade, since the material used and its finish are also defined in the project, in harmony with the other materials used on the facade.

To ensure comfort and safety, Agmar has a qualified metal carpentry team to produce and install aluminum windows for projects.

7.3 Glass

Whether it is facades, windows or doors, accessories or walls, glass is able to adapt to the needs of the project, giving it modernity and brightness. Its color, and other specifications, are studied in the project, adapting the technical needs to the design and identity of each project.

8. Checklist

This step finalizes each project. Specific checklists are created for each discipline (electrical, plumbing, coatings, etc.), in addition to the final checklist in each unit to ensure delivery according to the Agmar standard. During work, as well as at the end of the delivery of the units, we rely on the Quality Management System to verify all the services performed, carefully checking all items (services and materials) so that the product is delivered in perfect condition.
