Since 1987 we have made quality and safety our key values, putting together a growing team of professionals covering every area of rehabilitation and restoration. This allows us to guarantee the excellence and rigor to which we are committed in each project.
Professionals committed to restoring and rehabilitating buildings.
We approach every job in a holistic way, adding value with our highly qualified workforce. Our references and accolades are unique in the sector and are appreciated internationally. We put the knowledge and experience acquired over more than 35 years into assuring quality and successful outcomes in the projects we perform.
In the KALAM presentation video, we showcase a selection of significant interventions from our trajectory. Notable works include projects in World Heritage buildings, such as the comprehensive rehabilitation of the Casa del Labrador at the Royal Palace of Aranjuez, or those carried out at the Seville Cathedral, along with a sample of our international experience.
We work with public and private clients that value the accreditations and quality marks which qualify our firm to perform conservation projects on unique heritage assets. We have a track record that is widely appreciated as a result of our having undertaken work for prestigious clients in the insurance, institutional, and heritage sectors, as well as for housing associations that rely on word of mouth for their renovation projects.
Our staff engage with each project, putting their experience at the service of a successful outcome.
We highlight the recognition of our work at the Europa Nostra Awards. In 2016, we received the Special Mention in the category of Dedication to Heritage Service, and in 2018, we were awarded in the category of Conservation, where the international jury recognized the outstanding restoration carried out at the Colegio de San Ildefonso at the University of Alcalá de Henares, emphasizing the respectful recovery of its historical patina. In 2024, the restoration of La Giralda was honored with the Hispania Nostra Award, acknowledging the high quality of the technical work and the multidisciplinary team composed of specialists from various fields and crafts.
These distinctions, among others achieved throughout our career related to environmental protection and safety on site, are a source of great honor for us.
We have the highest company rating in the field of restoration of historic and artistic heritage and ornamentation as well as in all other subcategories of construction in Spain, Portugal, Chile, and other countries we work in.
As part of our commitment to excellence, we were the first in the sector to implement health & safety, quality, and organizational management systems in accordance with company policy and the standards ISO 14001-2015 (Environmental Management), ISO 9001-2015 (Quality), and ISO 45001-2018 (Health & Safety Management).
KALAM’s Craft Trade School – EOAK – is geared to in-house practitioners and their professional growth through a continuous training and skills upgrade program and to external pupils through agreements entered into with universities and restoration and trade schools.
Through EOAK we also organize talks and workshops aimed at postgraduates, fine arts graduates, restorers, and architects on heritage restoration practice and historic building refurbishment. With this initiative we seek to preserve traditional trades and techniques, a key aspect in the proper conservation of historic buildings.
We see working in the field of art and cultural property, in which we have accumulated a wealth of experience, as a privilege.
We regularly produce special publications so as to share subjects of interest with heritage stewards and architects; we sponsor, coordinate, and take part in technical workshops and seminars through which we disseminate our know-how; we conduct research projects and engage in initiatives linked to cultural heritage in the academic, institutional, and civil-society spheres.
