The process of restoration
In order to restore, a profound expertise on the functioning and the mechanisms of windmills is necessary.
Furthermore, the parts to be restored are continuously reassessed by putting them into faultless windmills
before finally integrating them into the repaired one.
Before the restoration begins, the particular windmill is described and documented in detail, also taking into consideration specific architectural features that have to be reconstructed. After that, an estimation of costs for the restoration is produced, before, at last, the agreement of the owner can be obtained. As soon as the owner concedes, a contract between the owner of the windmill and the Majorcan government is concluded. In this contract, the owner obliges to care for the maintenance of the windmill after the restoration, as well as to open the windmill for a public viewing at least six times without charge.
