Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We do flooring in Horta. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. The second critical point is the floor. Non-slip porcelain stoneware is the most resistant to intensive use and humidity. We accept microcement installation if you want a seamless look without grout lines, but it requires light annual maintenance. Natural stone is beautiful but more demanding regarding cleaning and periodic sealing.

How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we’ll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. Yes, it's our main added value. A single point of contact, one quote, one deadline. You don't have to chase multiple professionals. The process is labour-intensive. We apply a thick levelling compound over the stucco and let it partially dry. We sand it with an orbital sander until the surface is completely smooth. We apply a sealing primer and two coats of emulsion paint. The dust generated during sanding is considerable. We cover the entire room with plastic sheeting before starting and carefully vacuum at the end. A standard 15 m² room, smoothed and painted, takes 2-3 days of work.

When to call for flooring in Horta

Many people say painting is easy. It’s true, anyone can pick up a roller. The difference between an amateur and professional result lies in the preparatory and finishing steps that amateurs skip. Covering furniture, floors, and skirting boards with quality plastic sheeting. Applying precise masking tape on edges and corners. Filling small holes and cracks with specific filler before painting, not after. Sanding between coats for a perfect finish. Applying primer when the wall requires it. Removing the tape before the paint fully dries. These details separate a paint job that lasts 8-10 years from one that looks neglected within a month. For doors, frames, skirting boards, and any interior woodwork, we use synthetic or water-based enamel. Water-based acrylic is what we use most today: it dries quickly, has no solvent odour, is washable, and durable. It's applied by spray gun or a very short-nap roller for a smooth finish. Never with a brush on large surfaces as it leaves marks. For damp areas (kitchens, bathrooms), there are specific anti-moisture and anti-mould emulsion paints that resist condensation and steam without causing black mould stains. Their application requires a prior primer with a fungicide if the wall has already shown signs of mould.

Materials and brands

Yes, no problem. We just ask that the item is on site on the scheduled day and that the product warranty is the responsibility of the supplier where you purchased it. Of course. Quality plastic sheeting, masking tape, cardboard as needed for surfaces. Everything is cleaned and vacuumed upon completion. The third step is the application of the final paint. For large facades, we use airless spray guns that provide a quick, 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.

Approximate pricing

The price for flooring in Horta typically ranges between €156 and €3750. The final amount depends on the condition of the property, materials, and working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The most common mistake is repainting a facade with interior paint or inexpensive large-surface exterior paint. It works the first year but visibly degrades by the second. You need to invest in specific exterior paint with acrylic or silicone resins, quality UV filters, 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 makes up for it.
