The third step is the application of the final coat of paint. For large facades, we use airless sprayers that provide a fast, uniform finish. For terraces and detailed areas, we use high-quality rollers. We always apply two cross coats (the first vertical, the second horizontal) to ensure uniform coverage without brush marks. The first step is substrate diagnosis. If the existing paint is well-adhered, we cover it. If it is peeling, we remove it completely with a spatula and sander, leaving the substrate clean. If there are structural cracks (not superficial), we treat them with elastic filler that accommodates minor building movements without re-cracking. If there are saltpetre stains or white efflorescence, we remove them with a specific chemical product and neutralise before painting. The second step is priming. We apply a specific sealing primer that penetrates the substrate and creates a uniform base for the final paint to adhere to. Without the correct primer, the final paint may not adhere well to the substrate and peel off quickly. This is the step most often skipped in quick repaints but has the biggest impact on durability.

Seepage dampness requires extra treatment. If water is entering from the roof, the roof must be repaired first. If it's rising damp from the ground, it requires chemical barrier injection. Painting over it without treating the source is always a waste of money. Yes, we organise work by rooms so that you have unaffected areas. Water-based paints with almost no odour allow you to live in the house during the work. The minimum recommended height for a false ceiling is 8-10 cm from the original ceiling. This difference creates extra interior volume when there are recessed spotlights with boxes to prevent heat transfer or when integrating air ducts. For high ceilings in old villas where the height is excessive, we can plan a greater drop to restore proportion and allow for more sophisticated lighting.

Have you bought a property in the area and the facade or terrace has yellowish, peeling paint or whitish stains? It's not due to poor quality of the original paint. It's due to the harsh exposure conditions of the area. The Costa Blanca combines four factors that destroy standard exterior paints: intense, constant sun (over 300 days a year of direct UV radiation), sea salt deposited on surfaces near the coast, rare but torrential rains that wash away layers, and Sahara dust that embeds itself in the pigments. An economical white paint resistant to UV will last three summers in these conditions. A specific paint for coastal climates with a reinforced UV filter will last 8-10 years looking good. The most common mistake is repainting a facade with interior paint or cheap, large-area exterior paint. It works the first year but visibly degrades by the second. You need to invest in specific exterior paint with acrylic or silicone resins, a quality UV filter, and impact resistance. The difference in cost per litre between economical and professional paint is relatively small. The difference in years of durability more than compensates. We check the facade's condition and choose the appropriate paint system for the material and exposure.
