How we work

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 to the substrate and could peel off soon. This is the step most often skipped in quick repaints, but it has the biggest impact on durability. The third step is applying the final paint. For large facades, we use airless sprayers that provide 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 brush marks.

When to call for floor tiling in El Carmel

Properties on the frontline have specific issues requiring extra treatment. Saltpetre deposits on the wall and, with humidity, migrates into the substrate. When we paint over it, the salts continue their path and peel off the new paint within months. The solution is washing with specific chemicals before painting, neutralising, and applying a siloxane-type paint that allows the wall to breathe without letting water in. Filtration dampness requires extra treatment. If water is entering from the roof, the roof must be repaired first. If it's rising damp from the ground, it requires chemical barrier injection. Painting over it without treating the source is always a waste of money. 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. Their application requires a primer with a fungicidal product if the wall already had mould traces.

Materials and brands

Official manufacturer warranty for the paint, plus our coverage on labour. Have you bought a property in the area and the facade or terrace has yellowed, peeling, or whitewashed paint? It’s not due to poor quality of the original paint. It’s because of 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. Marine saltpetre depositing on surfaces near the coast. Rare but torrential rains that wash away layers. And Saharan dust that embeds itself between pigments. A cheap white paint resistant to UV would last three summers in these conditions. A specialised coastal climate paint with an enhanced UV filter lasts 8-10 years looking good. We check the facade's condition and choose the appropriate paint system for the material and exposure.

Indicative pricing

The price for floor tiling in El Carmel typically ranges between €156 and €3750. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and work time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The most common mistake is repainting a facade with interior paint or cheap large-surface exterior paint. It works the first year but visibly degrades by the second. You need to invest in specialised exterior paint with acrylic or silicone resins, a quality UV filter, and impact resistance. The cost difference per litre between cheap and professional paint is relatively small. The difference in years of durability offers a significant return.
