If the existing paint is well adhered, we cover it. If it's peeling, we remove it completely with a spatula and sander, leaving the substrate clean. If there are structural cracks (not superficial ones), we treat them with elastic filler that accommodates small building movements without re-cracking. If there are saltpeter stains or white efflorescence, we remove them with specific chemicals and neutralise before painting. The third step is applying the final paint. For large facades, we use airless sprayers which provide a quick, uniform finish. For terraces and detailed areas, we use good quality rollers. We always apply two cross coats (the first vertical, the second horizontal) to ensure uniform coverage without brush marks.

Seepage damp 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 a chemical barrier injection. Painting over it without treating the source is always a waste of money. Properties on the seafront have specific issues requiring extra treatment. Saltpeter deposits on the wall and, with moisture, migrates into the substrate. When we paint over it, the salts continue their path and cause the new paint to peel within months. The solution is washing with specific chemicals before painting, neutralisation, and application of a siloxane-type paint that allows the wall to breathe without letting water through. When you repaint with a good quality white emulsion paint and two coats, the room changes radically and the effect goes beyond the purely aesthetic. The feeling of spaciousness increases. Light reflects better off the walls, so you need less artificial lighting. Furniture appears cleaner by contrast. And living in a freshly painted house feels different to living in one that needs a refresh. It's a modest investment with a disproportionate impact on daily well-being.

We check the facade's condition and select the appropriate paint system for the material and exposure. Hve you bought a property in the area and the facade or terrace has yellowed, peeling, or white-streaked paint? It's not due to poor quality of the original paint. It's because of the harsh exposure conditions in the area. The Costa Blanca combines four factors that destroy standard exterior paints: Intense and constant sun, over 300 days a year of direct UV radiation. Sea saltpeter that deposits on surfaces near the coast. Rare but torrential rains that wash away layers. And Saharan dust that embeds itself between the pigments. A cheap white paint resistant to UV would last three summers in these conditions. A specific paint for coastal climates with a reinforced UV filter lasts 8-10 years looking good. Official manufacturer's warranty for the paint plus our labour guarantee.

The price for plastering and rendering in Cerdanyola (Mataró) typically ranges from €160 to €3400. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The most common mistake is repainting a facade with interior paint or cheap, large-surface 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, quality UV filters, and impact resistance. The difference in cost per litre between cheap and professional paint is relatively small. The difference in years of durability offers a significant return.
