Replacing old fuse boxes with modern REBT-compliant ones, running new circuits while respecting traditional walls and archways without damaging the stonework, installing sockets and switches where there were none before. The key is to carry out the upgrade without destroying the traditional aesthetics of the house; Crevillent homeowners highly value preserving the character of their inherited property.

The second service is plumbing in homes with old installations. Replacing lead pipes when they appear, bathroom renovations that respect the original layout or modernise it according to the client's preference, installing modern electric water heaters. For some houses with a rear utility area, we also work on rainwater downpipe systems that can cause problems during heavy rain. The typical client here is a foreign homeowner, especially British or Irish. They arrived five or ten years ago, bought a villa from the 90s or 2000s. Now the home is starting to need serious maintenance. Private pools. Almost all villas here have one; they require monthly attention which many owners delegate after their first summer struggling with chemicals and filters. The air conditioning units from the 2000s that came with the original package are now in their second life cycle. Kitchens and bathrooms done when the house was bought are beginning to need partial renovations. Air conditioning is the second largest category by volume. The split and multi-split units installed in the 2000s villas are now fifteen or twenty years old and are starting to lose refrigerant, make excessive noise, and not cool as effectively as before. Complete replacements, mandatory annual maintenance to maintain warranty and performance, breakdown repairs in the middle of August when temperatures reach 36 degrees.

Running a new cable through a forty-centimetre-thick ancient masonry wall is not the same as running it through a plasterboard partition. Here, technicians need to know the town and bring the right tools: long drills, SDS-MAX bits, heavy-duty hammer drills, because without them, an installation that would take a morning in another town could take two working days if you lack the correct equipment. The typical profile is British or Irish, living here between six months and the full year. They are usually retired or semi-retired, with a medium-to-high budget and clear quality expectations. They don't want to save eighty euros with a dubious freelancer only to have a bigger problem in six months. They want the job done well, with a clean invoice, with a real guarantee. With a professional who can return if something isn't right. In Orihuela Costa, the winter is mild. January nights in developments like Playa Flamenca, La Zenia or Cabo Roig can be colder than many expect, especially in homes with large glazed areas facing the sea. A well-sized heating system makes the difference between a comfortable home and an overwhelming energy bill. At Manitas, we work with local technicians who know the type of construction in the area, the coastal humidity, and the peculiarities of second homes. We adapt each installation or repair to the actual use the property will have.
