Matte emulsion paint is the standard option for ceilings and walls in rooms, living rooms, and bedrooms. It provides a uniform finish without glare, hides imperfections in the surface, and is easy to apply. For high-traffic areas (hallways, stairs, lobbies) and for children's rooms where walls get dirtier, we recommend washable satin emulsion, which has a very slight sheen but allows you to clean off stains with a damp cloth without damaging the paint. One of the most frequent calls we receive in autumn-winter are from homeowners who haven't painted their home for eight or ten years. They’ve noticed the walls are no longer white, but a difficult-to-define greyish-yellow. The Mediterranean light is very unforgiving on walls. Cheap whites turn yellow due to slow oxidation, especially in rooms with direct sun or near the kitchen where steam and airborne oil reach. Furniture marks, the occasional spatters over time, and small knocks on corners are cumulative.

When to call for waterproofing in Mataró

For damp areas (kitchens, bathrooms), there are specific anti-damp and anti-mould emulsion paints that resist condensation and steam without generating black mould stains. Application requires a primer with a fungicide if the wall already showed mould traces. 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 sense of space increases. Light reflects better off the walls, so you need less artificial lighting. Furniture looks cleaner by contrast. And living in a freshly painted home feels different to living in one that needs a refresh. It's a modest investment with a disproportionate impact on daily well-being. Many people say painting is easy. It's true, anyone can pick up a roller. The difference between an amateur and a professional result lies in the preparatory and finishing steps that amateurs skip. Covering furniture, floors, and skirting boards with quality plastic. Applying precise masking tape to 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 the tape before the paint fully dries. These details separate a paint job that lasts 8-10 years from one that looks neglected after a month.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to paint a whole home?
An 80-100 m² home with a 2-person crew takes 3-4 days to paint with two coats. If walls need repairing, smoothing artex, or treating dampness 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 do small full renovations?
Yes, bathrooms and kitchens up to 15 m² we do completely: demolition, plumbing, electrics, tiling, sanitaryware, and painting. For larger renovations, we refer clients 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 with no obligation. A prior visit to measure and check the condition of the walls. A detailed quote by item within 24-48 hours.
