Guardamar is probably the only town in the Vega Baja where the mains water is significantly better than in its surroundings. The local desalination plant provides a product with lower hardness than the general supply in the area, electric water heaters last longer, taps get less scaled up, and the inner walls of pipes accumulate less limescale. For a plumber used to the typical breakdowns in Torrevieja, a visit to a flat in the centre of Guardamar is a surprise. The breakdowns are different, the ageing times are different, the components that fail first are not the same. The typical client here is a foreign resident owner, mainly British and Irish. They arrived five or ten years ago and bought a villa from the 90s or 2000s. Now the property is starting to need serious maintenance. Private swimming pools. Almost all villas here have one; they require monthly attention, which many owners delegate after their first summer struggling with chemicals and filters. The air conditioning units from the 2000s that came with the original package are now in their second life cycle. The kitchens and bathrooms fitted when the house was bought are beginning to need partial renovations.

For preventive maintenance in non-resident owners' apartments, we schedule in April and May before the high season. No peak in June. The difference between scheduling in advance and waiting for an emergency is real; in August, technicians in the area are at their limit. The most requested service is the replacement of old installations in houses in the centre and surrounding villages. Complete electrical fuse boxes upgraded to current REBT regulations, replacement of copper pipes with modern multilayer pipes during kitchen or bathroom renovations, installation of new electric water heaters where butane heaters were previously used and are no longer economical to maintain. The second most frequent service is the maintenance of apartment installations near the beach. Here, the pattern is similar to Torrevieja: owners who arrive in July and August and need the air conditioning to work, the blinds to go up, and the fridge to start. We make pre-season visits in May and June for all these cases. We react quickly in August when something fails and tenants are present.

The typical client is British or Irish, living here between six months and all year round. They are usually retired or semi-retired, with a medium-to-high budget and clear quality demands. They don't want to save eighty euros with a dubious self-employed person only to have a bigger problem in six months. They want the job done right, with a clean invoice, and a real guarantee. With a professional who can return if something goes wrong. The historic centre is the densest area. Streets in the old town near the church and the castle, traditional homes that are mostly renovated but retain complex installations. The Guardamar promenade and parallel streets have apartments from the 80s and 90s with the typical mix of resident and holiday owners. The dunes and pine forest are protected areas, but there are scattered houses with private services; some houses do not have mains drainage and depend on septic tanks that require specific maintenance, which we also cover. El Edén, El Raso, and the developments in the south of the municipality are the newer areas with villas and bungalows. Los Estanques, La Marina (the Guardamar district, not to be confused with La Marina in Elche), Lo Marabú – we cover the entire municipality.
