Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We carry out waterproofing in Vallcarca i els Penitents. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. Yes, this is the subtlety of working on old houses in Crevillente. We study the best route, use concealed or surface ducting as appropriate, and repair masonry with judgment when necessary.

How we work

The main service is electrical upgrades in traditional houses in the city centre. Replacement of old fuse boxes with modern REBT compliant ones, 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; Crevillente homeowners highly value preserving the character of their inherited property.

When to call for waterproofing in Vallcarca i els Penitents

The second service is plumbing in homes with old installations. Replacement of lead pipes when they appear, bathroom renovations that respect the original layout or modernise it according to the client's preference, installation of modern electric water heaters. For some houses with a rear gallery, we also work on rainwater downpipes which can cause problems in heavy rain. Yes, we use a specific paint system for damp walls: anti-salt sealing primer, breathable microporous paint that allows the wall to breathe. Specific to properties on the seafront. Saltpetre deposits on exterior walls, penetrating with moisture. It emerges on evaporation, forming white or bluish stains that peel away paint from the inside. The treatment involves washing with specific chemicals, neutralising remaining salts with anti-efflorescence products. Application of a siloxane-type paint system that allows the wall to breathe without letting water through.

Materials and brands

Running a new cable through a forty-centimetre thick old masonry wall is not the same as running it through a plasterboard partition. Here, technicians need to know the city and bring the right equipment, long drills, SDS-MAX bits, heavy rotary hammers, because without them, a job that would take half a day in another city could take two days if you lack the correct tools. No, we choose the product compatible with each material (stoneware, marble, microcement, parquet) after an initial assessment. This is precisely what prevents scratching or dulling new surfaces. Yes, it's our daily work in Crevillent centre. We bring long drills and heavy rotary hammers for masonry walls of forty centimetres or more, and we work while respecting the traditional aesthetic.

Frequently asked questions

How to distinguish rising damp from water ingress?
Rising damp: stain rises from the floor, up to one metre high, white efflorescence. Water ingress: stain descends from ceiling or high corners, coincides with rain.
How much does chemical injection cost?
It depends on the linear metres of affected wall. 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 empty 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.
