Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We do waterproofing in El Raval. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price and start. High-level cistern, low-level cistern, or wall-hung toilets, models suspended on a frame, rimless models that are more hygienic and clean better. Pedestal basins, countertop basins, wall-hung basins with visible trap. Fixed, sliding, folding, or corner shower screens and bath screens. Standard bathtubs, simple whirlpool baths, and ultra-flat shower trays when doing a full renovation.

How we work

For specific replacements, we visit the same day or the next. We measure what is installed, check the type of drain, and assess if the floor and tiles will withstand the change without needing to be retouched. If the change is direct, we give you a fixed price and bring the new sanitaryware. If the change involves touching up the tiling or drains, we'll tell you beforehand so you know the full scope. We always replace flexible hoses, stop valves, and old sealant to prevent future leaks. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online – we reply in under 10 minutes during business hours.

When to call for waterproofing in El Raval

There are two very different scenarios when discussing sanitaryware. The first is a specific replacement. A cracked toilet, a basin broken by a dropped item, a bathtub replaced with a shower tray for accessibility. These are half-day or one-day jobs at most and don't require major work. The second is a complete bathroom renovation, where we change everything at once and coordinate multiple trades. Yes, using chemical barrier injection methods and waterproofing mortars. We guarantee the treatment for 5 years. Painting over untreated dampness never works; it always returns. Complete tiling of a 6 m² bathroom with average materials, between €1,800 including labour. Rising damp treatment on a 4-metre wall, between €600 and €1,000. Plasterboard false ceiling in a 12 m² room with LED spotlight installation, between €700 and €1,200.

Materials and brands

Manufacturer's official warranty on the sanitaryware plus our labour guarantee. Of course. Quality plastics, painter's tape, hardboard depending on the surface. We leave everything clean and vacuumed when finished. Many people say painting is easy. It's true, anyone can pick up a roller. The difference between an amateur's result and a professional's lies in the preparatory and finishing steps that amateurs skip. Covering furniture, floors, and skirting boards with quality plastic. Applying precise painter's tape on edges and corners. Filling small holes and cracks with specific filler before painting, not after. Sanding between coats for a perfect finish. Applying primer when the wall requires it. Removing tape before the paint is fully dry. These details separate paint that lasts 8-10 years from paint that looks neglected within a month.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to paint a whole home?
An 80-100 m² home with a crew of 2 people takes 3-4 days to paint with two coats. If walls need repairing, popcorn ceiling removed, or dampness treated 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 with vertical work permits.
Do you treat rising damp?
Yes, using chemical barrier injection methods and waterproofing mortars. We guarantee the treatment for 5 years. Painting over untreated dampness never works; it always returns.
Do you carry out small full refurbishments?
Yes, bathrooms and kitchens up to 15 m² we do completely: demolition, plumbing, electricity, tiling, sanitaryware, and painting. For larger renovations, we refer to a specialised construction partner.
Do you cover and protect the house before painting?
Of course. We cover floors with hardboard or thick plastic, protect sockets and skirting boards with tape, and move light furniture. We move heavy items to the centre of the room.
Is the quote free?
Yes, free and no obligation. A prior visit to measure and check the condition of the walls. A detailed quote by item within 24-48 hours.
