How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll respond in under 10 minutes during business hours. The first step is surface diagnostics. 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 surface clean. If there are structural cracks (not superficial), we treat them with elastic filler that accommodates minor 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 the application of the final paint. For large facades, we use airless sprayers for 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 marks.

When to call for flooring in L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample

Seepage damp 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 a chemical barrier injection. Painting over it without treating the source is always a waste of money. Properties on the seafront have specific problems that require extra treatment. Saltpetre deposits on the wall and, with moisture, migrates into the substrate. When we paint over it, the salts continue their path and cause the new paint to flake off within months. The solution is washing with specific chemicals before painting, neutralisation, and applying a siloxane-type paint that allows the wall to breathe without letting water through. When you repaint with good white emulsion 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 seems cleaner by contrast. And living in a newly painted house feels different to living in one that needs a refresh. It's a modest investment with a disproportionate impact on daily well-being.

Materials and brands

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, or whitish-stained paint? 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. Marine saltpetre that deposits on surfaces near the coast. Rare but torrential rains that wash away layers. And Saharan dust that embeds itself among the pigments. An economical white paint resistant to UV will last three summers in these conditions. A specific paint for coastal climates with reinforced UV filter will last 8-10 years looking good. Official manufacturer's warranty for the paint plus our coverage on labour.

Indicative price

The price for flooring in L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample typically ranges between €156 and €3750. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and working 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 specific exterior paint with acrylic or silicone resins, 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.
