Our Core Services:

1. Project Conception and Architectural Design: Our experienced team, in collaboration with trusted partners like EXPERT d.o.o. and OPTIMUM ing d.o.o., transforms your vision into reality. We offer bespoke architectural design services, creating modern, functional, and aesthetically pleasing residential buildings. This includes detailed planning for individual residential units, common areas, and essential infrastructure. Our designs for projects in Klara, Zagreb, such as the multi-unit residential buildings in Horvatova ulica, showcase our capability to develop properties with 5, 6, and up to 16 individual housing units, each meticulously planned for comfort and modern living.

2. Comprehensive Project Management and Engineering: Keystone Croatia provides end-to-end project management. We oversee every phase of development, ensuring projects are delivered on time and within budget. Our services encompass:

• Structural Engineering: In partnership with certified engineers, we ensure the structural integrity and safety of all our buildings. This includes detailed structural analysis, design of reinforced concrete (AB) structures, masonry, and foundation engineering, adhering to Eurocodes and Croatian technical regulations (e.g., Tehnički propis za betonske konstrukcije, Tehnički propis za zidane konstrukcije).

• Utilities Design and Implementation: We manage the design and installation of all essential utilities, including:

  • Water Supply and Sewage (Vodovod i Kanalizacija): Comprehensive planning and execution of internal and external water and sewage systems, ensuring compliance with local regulations and health standards (e.g., VODOOPSKRBA I ODVODNJA d.o.o. Zagreb requirements).

  • Electrical Engineering (Elektrotehnički Projekt): Design and installation of low-voltage electrical systems, including power distribution, lighting, safety systems (e.g., fire alarm, emergency lighting), and infrastructure for electric vehicle charging, all conforming to relevant Croatian norms (e.g., Tehnički propis za niskonaponske električne instalacije).

  • Mechanical Engineering (Strojarski Projekt): Design and implementation of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, elevator systems (Projekt Dizala), and other mechanical installations to ensure optimal comfort and functionality.

• Geodetic Services: We coordinate and utilize precise geodetic surveys and elaborates (Geotehnički elaborat) to ensure accurate site planning and foundation design, crucial for the stability and longevity of our developments.

3. Construction and Quality Assurance: We are committed to the highest standards of construction quality. Our process includes:

• Adherence to Main Project (Glavni Projekt) Specifications: All construction activities strictly follow the approved main project plans, which detail every aspect of the building, from architectural layouts to specific material requirements.

• Thermal Protection and Energy Efficiency (Projekt Toplinske Zaštite): Our buildings are designed and constructed to meet stringent energy efficiency standards, incorporating high-quality insulation, energy-efficient windows, and other measures to minimize energy consumption and environmental impact. We ensure compliance with the Technical Regulation on Rational Use of Energy and Heat Protection in Buildings and provide Energy Performance Certificates (Energetska Iskaznica) for each building and unit.

• Fire Safety Engineering (Elaborat Zaštite od Požara): Comprehensive fire safety measures are integrated into our designs and construction, including fire-resistant materials, fire detection and alarm systems, smoke extraction systems, and ensuring adequate access for firefighting services, all in accordance with Croatian fire safety regulations.

• Quality Control and Material Testing: We implement a rigorous program of quality control and assurance (Program Kontrole i Osiguranja Kvalitete) throughout the construction process. This includes verification of construction materials, on-site inspections, and necessary testing to ensure all work meets the specified quality and safety standards.

• Waste Management: We adhere to responsible construction waste management practices, ensuring proper disposal and recycling in line with environmental regulations.

4. Regulatory Compliance and Approvals: Navigating the complex regulatory landscape is a key part of our service. We manage the entire process of obtaining necessary permits and approvals, including:

• Compliance with Spatial Plans (Prostorni Plan Grada Zagreba, Generalni Urbanistički Plan Grada Zagreba).

• Obtaining special construction conditions and connection approvals from relevant authorities (e.g., HEP-Operator distribucijskog sustava for electricity, Vodoopskrba i Odvodnja for water and sewage, HAKOM for telecommunications).

• Ensuring all project documentation (e.g., Izjava Glavnog Projektanta, Rješenje o upisu ovlaštenih inženjera) is complete and compliant with Croatian laws (Zakon o gradnji, Zakon o prostornom uređenju).

5. Handover and Post-Completion Support: Our commitment to our clients extends beyond project completion. We ensure a smooth handover process and provide support for any post-completion queries. Our projects are designed for a long operational life with defined maintenance requirements to preserve their value and functionality.
