We do waterproofing in Santa Coloma de Cervelló. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. Damp treatment is a separate matter. The Costa Blanca has serious problems with rising damp in ground floors and water ingress in flat roofs. We apply waterproofing mortars, barrier injections against rising damp, and breathable coatings that let the wall breathe without the paint peeling.

How we work

The kitchens in typical 1980s apartments often have small, dark tiles that age poorly. Replacing all the tiles is a major renovation. An alternative that is working well is painting the tiles with specific tile enamels after sanding and priming. It holds up perfectly for 5-7 years with normal use and costs a tenth of replacing the tiles. If you manage a holiday rental property in Torrevieja, La Mata, or Punta Prima, you know that week well. The last summer client leaves, the first low-season client arrives. In between, you have six or seven actual days to repaint scuffed walls, touch up skirting boards, re-seal yellowed bathroom silicone, and make the kitchen presentable for the next photo. We work in that format, small teams that come in, do what's necessary, and leave the same day or the next. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online – we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours.

When to call for waterproofing in Santa Coloma de Cervelló

Saltpetre, especially on the seafront, gets into exterior walls. The white efflorescence you see under the render are salts rising with moisture. Painting over it without treating the source is a waste of time and money; the new paint will peel in 6-8 months. The correct process is to remove the affected material, neutralise the salts with specific chemicals, and only then apply the paint system. We use matt and satin emulsion paint for interiors, synthetic enamel for doors and skirting boards, textured 'gotelé' finishes for older ceilings when the client wants to keep them, one-coat paint for exteriors and facades, and elastic coatings for walls with structural cracks. We work with professional brands like Procolor, Tollens, Bruguer, and Titan, depending on the surface type. Examples: water leak • power cut • air conditioning not cooling • stuck blind • painting…

Materials and brands

La Herrada bungalows have repetitive installations, the same model of fuse box, water heater, and air conditioning in many homes. This reduces diagnostic time and allows us to carry common parts in stock. Technically, this means we work almost exclusively on bungalows with similar installations. The same electrical fuse box model is repeated in dozens of homes, the same type of electric water heater installed by the original developer, the same air conditioning from the 2000s now in its second life. For an electrician or plumber, this is a huge advantage; diagnosis is faster, and common parts are kept in stock. The total intervention time per fault is reduced. The most requested service is the replacement of electric water heaters at the end of their useful life. The La Herrada bungalows were built between the 90s and 2000s with 100 or 150-litre water heaters that are now worn out after twenty or twenty-five years of hard water. We replace them with new models from quality brands like Junkers, Cointra, Edesa, with a sacrificial anode to extend their lifespan. This is a half-day job per unit.
