Websites for carpenters and joiners in Spain

Under article 10 of the LSSI: your name, an address in Spain, email and other contact details, your NIF (your NIE if you are not Spanish), your Registro Mercantil details if you trade as a company, and whether any prices shown include VAT. Carpentry is not a regulated profession, so there is no Colegio number to add.

It depends on the region. In the Comunitat Valenciana, Madrid and Catalonia, homeowners are entitled to a detailed written quote before work starts, with set information such as materials, labour rates, dates and the total with VAT. They can only waive it in their own handwriting, with their signature (Valencia and Madrid prescribe the wording, such as “Renuncio al presupuesto previo y autorizo la reparación”). In Catalonia the quote is due whenever the customer can't work out the price themselves, and in Valencia you must be able to prove you offered one. Other regions have their own rules: a written quote is always the safe choice.

Mainly for renovation or repair of a home: the customer is an individual using it privately (not rented out) or a comunidad de propietarios, the home is at least two years old, and the materials you supply cost no more than 40% of the price before VAT. The Tax Agency notes that double glazing usually exceeds that limit, and doors, windows, wardrobes or kitchen units supplied without fitting are always taxed at 21%. New-build or rehabilitation work contracted directly with the developer, including kitchen units and fitted wardrobes supplied and installed, can also be at 10%. The invoice should state the cost of materials, or that they don't exceed 40% of the price before VAT.

Only if you employ staff and work as a contractor or subcontractor on construction sites (Ley 32/2006). Self-employed carpenters with no employees are exempt. If you have staff and work directly for a homeowner, you only need it if you subcontract part of the job. There is no obligation to show an REA number on your website.

Accept complaints through the channel the customer first used, as well as by post, phone and an electronic channel, and reply within 15 days: a national rule since 28 December 2025 (previously a month). Carry your region's official complaint forms. In Andalucía, businesses without premises must show a QR complaint poster on quotes, invoices and their website; in Madrid, if you have no premises open to the public, a notice that complaint forms are available goes wherever you make offers.

Yes, if you say whether and how you check them. Since December 2025, reviews must relate to a job done in the 30 days before the review, and adding or commissioning fake reviews has been banned outright since 2022.

Pre-contract information, including quotes, must be given at least in Spanish, so a bilingual quote is the safe choice even for British customers. Invoices can be in any language, although the Tax Agency may ask for a translation. Your website comes in English and Spanish, plus up to two more languages, at no extra cost.
