The first step is substrate diagnosis. If the existing paint is well adhered, we cover it. If it's flaking, we remove it completely with a spatula and sander, leaving the substrate clean. If there are structural cracks (not superficial), we treat them with elastic filler that accommodates small building movements without re-cracking. If there are saltpetre or white efflorescence stains, we remove them with a specific chemical product and neutralise before painting. The third step is applying the final paint. For large facades, we use airless spray guns which give a fast, 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 marks. The second step is priming. We apply a specific sealing primer that penetrates the substrate and creates a uniform base for the final paint to adhere to. Without the correct primer, the final paint may not adhere well and could flake off soon. This is the step most often skipped in quick repaints, but it has the biggest impact on durability.

Properties on the seafront have specific problems requiring extra treatment. Saltpetre settles on the wall and, with moisture, migrates into the substrate. When we paint over it, the salts continue their path and flake off the new paint within months. The solution is washing with specific chemicals before painting, neutralising, and applying siloxane paint which allows the wall to breathe without letting water in. Yes, we organise work by rooms so you have unaffected areas. Water-based enamels with almost no odour allow you to live in the house during the work. When you repaint with a good, white plastic 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 appears cleaner by contrast. And living in a freshly painted house feels different to one that needs a refresh. It's a modest investment with a disproportionately large impact on daily well-being.

Procolor Termik, Tollens Aquastop, Bruguer Sol. Exterior specific with UV filter. Official manufacturer's warranty 8-10 years. We check the facade's condition and choose the appropriate paint system for the material and exposure. Have you bought a property in the area and the facade or terrace has yellowish, flaking paint, or whitish stains? It's not due to poor quality of the original paint. It's due to the harsh exposure conditions of 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 salt that deposits on surfaces near the coast. Rare but torrential rains that wash away layers. And Saharan dust that embeds itself between the pigments. An economical white paint resistant to UV would last three summers in these conditions. A specific paint for coastal climates with a reinforced UV filter will last 8-10 years looking good.

The price for waterproofing in Premià de Mar typically ranges between €170 and €5,000. The final amount depends on the property's condition, the materials, and the time required. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The most common mistake is repainting a facade with interior paint or economical exterior paint for large areas. It works the first year but visibly degrades by the second. You need to invest in specific exterior paint with acrylic or silicone resins, a quality UV filter, and impact resistance. The difference in cost per litre between economical and professional paint is relatively small. The difference in years of durability more than compensates.
