We do plastering and rendering in El Poblenou. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and get started. Yes, specific paint system for damp walls: anti-salt primer, breathable microporous paint that allows the wall to breathe.

How we work

We start with ceilings, light fixtures, air ducts, and the tops of wardrobes, where the finest dust accumulates. Then we move on to walls, doors, frames, skirting boards, radiators, and window tracks. Next is interior and exterior carpentry, windows inside and out, taps, and sanitaryware. We finish with the floors, which are done last as they receive everything that falls during the process. Thorough vacuuming, mopping with neutral detergent, and, if necessary, a second mop to remove the last traces of construction dust. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online – we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. It depends on the linear metres of wall affected. We provide a fixed quote after a diagnostic visit, with no obligation.

When to call for plastering and rendering in El Poblenou

Specific to properties on the front line of the sea. Saltpetre deposits on exterior walls, penetrating with moisture. It emerges as the water evaporates, forming white or bluish stains that peel paint from the inside. The treatment involves washing with specific chemicals, neutralising remaining salts with anti-efflorescence products. Application of a siloxane-type paint system that allows the wall to breathe without letting water in. This is dampness formed when indoor air, laden with vapour, comes into contact with a cold surface. Typical in kitchens and bathrooms without adequate ventilation, also in rooms facing north-facing facades that get colder in winter. It manifests as water droplets on windows, cold corners of rooms, and black mould stains in cold areas of walls. This is dampness that rises from the ground through walls due to the capillary action of porous materials. It manifests as a damp stain on the ground floor up to a metre high from the ground, often with white efflorescence (salts that crystallise when the water evaporates). It is typical in old ground-floor homes, especially in areas with a high water table near the sea.

Materials and brands

San Miguel de Salinas is an inland municipality about fifteen kilometres from Torrevieja, in the Vega Baja region. It has around ten thousand inhabitants and a mixed profile of Spanish residents and foreign owners who sought to move away from saturated coastal developments. This intermediate position has a concrete technical consequence. The local professional offer is limited; self-employed workers here don't face as much competition as in Torrevieja or Orihuela Costa, and the average service quality is uneven. Some professionals are excellent, we know them. Others take advantage of the lack of alternatives to do quick jobs without guarantees. There isn't as much competition here as on the coast, and it shows in the quality of some professionals. We work in San Miguel to the same standards as in Torrevieja. No, we choose the product compatible with each material (gres, marble, microcement, parquet) after an initial assessment. This is precisely what prevents scratching or hazing new surfaces.

Frequently asked questions

How to distinguish rising damp from penetrating damp?
Rising damp: a stain rising from the ground up to a metre high, with white efflorescence. Penetrating damp: a stain descending from the ceiling or high corners, coinciding with rain.
How much does chemical injection cost?
It depends on the linear metres of wall affected. We provide a fixed quote after a diagnostic visit, with no obligation.
How long does the treatment last?
We guarantee chemical injection for 5 years in writing. In reality, it lasts 15-20 years or more if the treatment is done correctly and no new source appears.
Do I need to empty the room?
For chemical injection and interior wall repair, yes, at least move furniture away from the affected wall. We work with protective plastics to minimise dust.
Do you paint with breathable products?
Yes, we use a specific paint system for damp walls: anti-salt primer, breathable microporous paint that allows the wall to breathe.
