Latest posts in Tabernas

Hi All.does anybody use a water delivery service for their property. I don’t have towns water on my casa and the well water leaves a lot to be desired. Looking for recommendations and ideas of prices for maybe 10000 litres at a time.just outside Tabernas village.

Is there anywhere in Tabernas that sells wood pellets?

Hi everyone,

Has anyone heard of any incidents, or have you experienced first-hand, any problems with squatters in/around the Tabernas area? I was reading some news articles about how bad this can be in Spain when you leave a property unoccupied for even short periods of time, so was curious if this is a common problem in the area.

Thanks in advance.

Can anyone recommend a roofer/tiler 

I've got a flat roof that's currently got felt on I want the felt removed and then tiled cheers any help appreciated as always 

Hi everyone, I am currently living in the UK and thinking about moving to Spain. One of the areas of potential interest is Tabernas. I had a few questions I was hoping to get some advice on from people who actually live there or have experience of the town/surrounding area:

- What is it like living in/around Tabernas for someone from the UK? Is it difficult if you don't speak Spanish?

- How many supermarkets are in the town? Do you find that they are of adequate size or do you have to drive to a larger town/city like Almeria to get your groceries?

- What are the temperature highs and lows in winter? What are the highs and lows in summer?

- Is it possible to get fixed line fibre broadband if you live near Tabernas e.g. a few kms outside the town? Or can you only get wifi? What speeds are possible?

- I understand that Spain doesn't have permitted development rules like we do in the UK. If you have a garden, is it possible to e.g. install a garden shed without needing planning permission or do you have to go through a planning permission process? Or are you just not allowed to do stuff like that?

Many thanks in advance for any advice!

Hello peeps, 

I recently bought a property in Tabernas which will need a solid renovation. Can anyone guide me on where to start, maybe some companies doing renovations in Tabernas, interior design etc? 

Looking forward to your advices. 

Hi,

     We seemed to experience 2 tremors this morning around 9.50, first around 4 seconds the second rather less time. Usual shaking & rattling windows etc. We are based in the town itself. No apparent damage 👍

What’s the easiest way to get from murcia to Almería 

Hi,

     I have been a strong proponent of Telitec since we engaged them in October 22. However I am currently experiencing the third loss of internet this year, currently two days, latest telecom advise verged on don’t expect ir back on soon. A couple of months ago it went down for 5 days, No explanation, apology etc. I have been told by Customer Services it is a widespread problem and a lot of Telitec customers are affected. Is that true ?, I imagine like me, others can access the Web via their mobile etc, but that does not replace the home fibre setup at all. 56€ per month is not cheap so I would like Telitec to wake up and action their issues. My past work experiences lead me to doubt what I am told. I managed the W/Wide Data Hubs for AstraZeneca for 5 years and more recently 5 years Talk Talk Data Centres. 

Will just have to wait and see, an untold period of time by the sounds of it !
