Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We carry out waterproofing on Camí de la Serra. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and then start. When a client calls us for an emergency (keys locked inside, lost key, jammed lock), we first evaluate if damage-free opening is possible. Most standard locks can be opened using professional techniques (lock picking, impressioning, pin manipulation) in 15-30 minutes without damaging the cylinder. This saves the client the cost of replacing the entire lock cylinder. For high-end anti-bumping cylinders, damage-free opening may not be possible, and the only solution is to drill the cylinder and replace it, which is more expensive but leaves the door as new with a new, reinforced security cylinder.

How we work

Choose the service and request a quote. The main service is electrical upgrades in traditional town houses. Replacing old fuse boxes with modern REBT compliant consumer units, running new circuits while respecting traditional walls and archways without damaging the masonry, installing sockets and outlets where there were none before. The subtlety lies in performing the upgrade without destroying the traditional aesthetic of the house; local residents highly value preserving the property's inherited character.

When to call for waterproofing on Camí de la Serra

Replacing just the cylinder is a 30-45 minute job per door. The lock mechanism stays, and we replace only the inner cylinder where the key fits. The new key is completely different and won't work with the old one. It's the most economical option and the one we recommend when the lock is of good quality and in good condition. Replacing the entire lock costs more and is justified when the lock is old or of poor quality, and we want to take the opportunity to upgrade the security level. The operation takes 60-90 minutes per door. Damage-free opening when possible, complete lock or cylinder replacement, installation of high-security anti-bumping cylinders. Yes, this is the subtlety of working in old houses. We study the optimal routing, use concealed or surface conduits as appropriate, and repair the masonry carefully when necessary to open up access.

Materials and brands

For a property on the Costa Blanca with medium risk (a development with neighbours, not isolated), we recommend medium-to-high quality anti-bumping cylinders. Brands like Tesa T80, Mottura Champions, or Cisa Astral are what we sell most. These cylinders have security pins that prevent the bumping technique—a sharp blow with a special key that can open any standard cylinder in under 60 seconds. They come with a registered key that cannot be copied at any hardware store without authorisation. They also have European certification EN1303, guaranteeing resistance to manipulation for years. Their cost is reasonable, and the real security improvement is enormous. If the lock mechanism is in good condition, replacing only the cylinder is the most economical option. If it's old or of low quality, a complete replacement is a better investment. 30 days on labour. Premium cylinders with official manufacturer warranty up to 10 years.
