Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We carry out waterproofing in Gavà. We visit the property, assess the work, give you a clear price, and start. Yes, in houses with a rear gallery or inner courtyards typical of old town areas. Drainage pipe cleaning, replacement of old downpipes, waterproofing repairs for infiltrations.

How we work

We start with ceilings, light fixtures, air ducts, and the tops of wardrobes, where the finest dust accumulates. We then move to walls, doors, frames, skirting boards, radiators, and window tracks. Next, interior and exterior woodwork, windows inside and out, taps, and sanitary ware. We finish with the floors, which are done last as they receive everything that falls during the process. Thorough vacuuming, mopping with neutral cleaner, and, if necessary, a second mop to remove the last traces of construction dust.

When to call for waterproofing in Gavà

This is dampness formed when moist indoor air meets a cold surface. Typical in kitchens and bathrooms without adequate ventilation, also in rooms facing north-facing facades which get colder in winter. It manifests as water droplets on windows, cold room corners, and black mould spots in cold wall areas. Specific to properties on the seafront. Saltpetre deposits on exterior walls and penetrates with moisture. It emerges as it evaporates, forming white or bluish patches that cause paint to peel from within. The treatment involves washing with specific chemicals, neutralising remaining salts with anti-efflorescence products, and applying a siloxane-type paint system that allows the wall to breathe without letting water in. Formal guarantee on the treatment. If the damp reappears in the same spot, we'll return.

Materials and brands

No, we choose the product compatible with each material (stoneware, marble, microcement, parquet) after preliminary assessment. This is precisely what prevents new surfaces from being scratched or dulled. Running a new cable through a forty-centimetre-thick ancient masonry wall is not the same as running it through a plasterboard partition. Here, technicians must know the city and bring the right equipment, long drills, SDS-MAX bits, heavy-duty rotary hammers, because without them, an installation that would take a morning in another city could become two days if you lack the correct tools. After a renovation or in a new build property, construction dust is not the same as household dust. It's very fine, a mix of plaster, cement, silica, and sawdust. It gets into every crevice, on top of cupboards, inside light boxes, in the window tracks, and on radiators. The characteristic is that it returns. You clean a surface, look again in an hour, and there's another layer, as suspended dust keeps falling. That's why a post-construction clean is done in a specific order, from top to bottom. With several passes, not a quick wipe.

Indicative pricing

The cost of waterproofing in Gavà typically ranges between €170 and €5000. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The result is a house ready to move into or to hand over to a tenant or buyer, with no dust reappearing after two days or any residue on glass and taps. We provide a free preliminary assessment to give you a fixed price based on metres and condition. Masonry work leaves more debris than a simple paint change. All work carries a 30-day guarantee. Depends on the linear metres of wall affected. We provide a fixed quote after a diagnostic visit, with no obligation.

Frequently asked questions

How to distinguish rising damp from water ingress?
Rising damp: a damp patch that travels up from the ground, reaching up to a metre in height, leaving white efflorescence. Water ingress: a damp patch descending from the ceiling or high corners, coinciding with rain.
How much does chemical injection cost?
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 vacate the room?
For chemical injection and interior wall repair, yes, at least move furniture away from the affected wall. We work with protective sheeting to minimise dust.
Do you paint with breathable products?
Yes, we use a specific paint system for damp walls: anti-salt sealing primer, breathable microporous paint that allows the wall to breathe.
