We do tiling in El Coll. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. Modern grout lines are done with 1.5-2mm spacers for large format tiles and 2-3mm for classic formats. Small grout lines give a continuous, minimalist look but require more precise installation. Grouting is done with epoxy grout in high-moisture areas (shower, kitchen worktop) and with standard flexible cementitious grout elsewhere. Epoxy is stain and mould resistant but more demanding to apply and usually costs more.

How we work

For mosaics, especially small glass or natural stone ones, use clear white adhesive so it doesn't show through the grout lines. And grout with quality grout, as mould in small mosaics is visually unpleasant and difficult to clean later.

When to call for tiling in El Coll

Yes, using barrier chemical injection methods and waterproofing mortars. We guarantee the treatment for 5 years. Painting over untreated dampness never works; it always returns. A poorly done tiling job shows within months. Tiles sound hollow when tapped, grout lines crack or blacken, corners lose alignment. A well-done tiling job lasts 30-40 years without significant problems. The difference lies in four factors the average customer doesn't see but which determine real durability: substrate preparation, adhesive choice, installation technique, and final grouting. Each has a multiplier effect, so a failure in any compromises the whole. Dampness treatment is a separate chapter. The Costa Blanca has serious problems with rising damp in ground floors and ingress of water in flat roofs. We apply waterproofing mortars, injection barriers against rising damp, and breathable coatings that let the wall breathe without paint peeling off.

Materials and brands

We only ask that it's of reasonable quality and arrives on site on the scheduled day. We buy in bulk from local distributors. 30-day labour warranty and official manufacturer's warranty on materials. Replacement of bathtub, shower, sink, or worktop seals when they blacken or detach. The DIYer removes the old seal, cleans the surface, and applies a moisture-resistant sanitary silicone.

Indicative price

The price for tiling in El Coll typically ranges between €140 and €3550. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. C1 cementitious adhesive is the most economical and sold in 25 kg bags at any hardware store. It might suffice for basic ceramic tiling on dry interior walls. For floors, bathrooms, exteriors, or any modern porcelain stoneware tile with low absorption, you need at least C2, ideally C2TES1 (cementitious, improved, with extended open time and reduced slip). The cost difference between C1 and C2TES1 is relatively small, but the difference in durability and resistance to detachment is enormous. Yes, free and without obligation. A prior visit to measure and check the wall condition. Detailed itemised quote within 24-48 hours.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to paint a whole home?
An 80-100 m² home with a 2-person crew is painted in 3-4 days with two coats. If walls need repair, smoothing of textured ceilings, or dampness treatment beforehand, add 2-3 days.
Do you paint exterior facades at height?
Yes, up to the second floor with our own lifting platforms. For taller buildings, we work with specialised companies holding permits for vertical work.
Do you treat rising damp?
Yes, using barrier chemical injection methods and waterproofing mortars. We guarantee the treatment for 5 years. Painting over untreated dampness never works; it always returns.
Do you do small full renovations?
Yes, bathrooms and kitchens up to 15 m² we do completely: demolition, plumbing, electricity, tiling, sanitary ware, and painting. For larger renovations, we refer to a specialised construction partner.
