The choice between different types of wood or wood-effect flooring depends on three main factors: budget, intended use and desired aesthetic. AC4 laminate floating flooring, which is our most popular product today, combines excellent value for money with resistance to intensive use. It consists of a top melamine layer with a realistic wood effect (high durability against abrasion), a high-density fibreboard core, and a balancing bottom layer. The top layer has an AC4 rating (suitable for intense domestic use or moderate commercial use) and withstands 25,000 abrasive cycles without visible wear. For standard domestic use, it lasts 15-25 years maintaining a good appearance. Its disadvantage is that, although visually very realistic, it is not natural wood and cannot be re-sanded and varnished if it gets damaged at some point.

Changing the blind cord itself is a 30-45 minute operation per blind when the box is accessible. The real complexity lies in locating the internal break, opening the box without damaging it, removing the axle, taking out the old cord, threading the new one through the slats and the winder. Reassembling the entire unit without misaligning the slats. For someone who has never done it, a blind can take three hours and end up worse than before. For technicians who do it daily, it's a 30-minute job with a clean result. Motorisation requires electrical power to the top box. If the box wall already has an electrical cable nearby (typically from the nearest room socket), installation is straightforward. If not, a cable must be run through an external conduit or a hidden channel. The complete motorisation operation takes 2-3 hours per blind when power is nearby. For all the blinds in an entire house, we can do it in 1-2 days. A highly demanded improvement today is to combine a motorised blind with a roller mosquito net integrated into the same box. This allows both the blind and the mosquito net to operate independently, both hidden when not in use. It is the standard solution in modern new construction. For renovations of existing homes, it requires replacing the entire box with a new, deeper one to accommodate both systems.

30 days on the repair. Somfy motors with 5-year official manufacturer's warranty. If the blind slats are cracked, discoloured and brittle (typical for blinds more than 25-30 years old exposed to direct sunlight), repairing them point by point stops being economically viable. Replacing the entire blind with a modern model costs between two and three times more than just changing the cord. In return, it gives you another 25-30 years without problems. Modern slats are injected and filled with polyurethane, much more insulating than the old hollow ones, thus improving thermal insulation. And you can request integrated motorisation from the factory. A modern and well-installed interior door noticeably changes the feel of a room. An old painted solid wood door from the 80s, with worn hinges that drag on the floor and a loose handle, immediately lowers the perceived quality of the space. Replacing it with a modern lacquered MDF or multi-laminated door with adjustable hidden hinges and a quality handle costs a reasonable amount and lasts another 30-40 years without seasonal movement or the need for periodic varnishing.

The price of furniture restoration in Sarrià usually ranges between 95 and 1240 euros. The final figure depends on the state of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. Solid wood parquet is the traditional option. Each plank is 100 per cent natural solid wood, typically oak, ash or walnut. Much more expensive to purchase and install, but it gives a unique character to the room because each plank has a distinct natural grain. Its great advantage is indefinite durability. If it wears or gets damaged, it can be sanded and re-varnished several times throughout its life. This is what was used in old, high-end apartments and what we recommend for premium home renovations where the budget allows.
