Engineer vs. contractor

Only a registered engineer can sign off and be accountable for your build.

The declaration of responsibility can only be signed by an engineer registered with the Order of Engineers, holding professional civil liability insurance. A contractor makes promises; a registered engineer is legally accountable.

Registered with the Order of Engineers Eurocodes EC2–EC8 Professional civil liability insurance Signed declaration of responsibility

Bought a property in Portugal to renovate? We give you a fixed price and an engineering team that's accountable — in Portuguese, Spanish or English.

The law changed · 2024

Under the new SIMPLEX, whoever signs is accountable for everything.

Decree-Law No. 10/2024

The local council no longer approves the structural stability project — it accepts it on the responsibility of whoever signs it.

Under the SIMPLEX Urbanístico reform, in force since 2024, local councils stopped evaluating specialist designs. They are now submitted by simple registration, covered by the declaration of responsibility of a competent professional.

Only an engineer registered with the Order of Engineers can sign that declaration, with a competence verification code (SIGOE) and civil liability insurance. A contractor — or an unregistered technician — cannot. That's why every service on this page comes with the signature of a registered engineer.

Common questions

What people ask before getting started

Do I need a structural stability project for my renovation?

Whenever you touch the structure — opening up a wall, removing a partition, adding a floor or changing loads — you need a structural stability project signed by an engineer registered with the Order of Engineers. It's also the document your planning permission requires.

How much does structural reinforcement cost?

Structural reinforcement costs around €400/m² (steel) or €300/m² (carbon fibre). The final price depends on the type of reinforcement and the area; we provide a fixed quote after the assessment.

Do you only handle the design, or do you also oversee the works?

Both. We handle the structural stability project and the calculations, and we also provide technical site supervision to make sure what's calculated is what gets built.

Do you work for architects and builders?

Yes. We handle the structural stability project and the declaration of responsibility for architects and builders, coordinating with the architectural design, without taking the client from anyone.

Do you also do painting, roofing, walls or demolition in Portugal?

Yes. Besides the structural stability project and structural calculations, we carry out interior/exterior painting (from €400), roofing (from €1,200), walls (from €700) and controlled demolition (from €500), always with technical verification whenever the structure is involved.
