Changing the blind cord itself takes 30-45 minutes 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. Then reassembling the entire unit without misaligning the slats. For someone who has never done it, one 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 wall next to the box already has an electrical cable nearby (typically from a nearby socket in the room), installation is straightforward. Otherwise, the cable needs to 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. Changing a blind cord is probably the most requested repair in the entire area. The reason is structural. 90 percent of homes in blocks in Torrevieja, Punta Prima, Pilar de la Horadada or La Mata have identical concept PVC roller blinds. PVC slats joined by internal tapes. A cotton pull cord that raises and lowers the blind. A winder recessed into the wall and an upper box with the axle and the rolled-up blind. The cotton cord is the weakest component. It suffers continuous friction every time you raise or lower the blind, thermal expansion and contraction with temperature changes. Degradation by humidity. Its actual lifespan is around 8-12 years with normal use. After that, it can break at any time, typically in mid-summer when you lower the blind at midday to escape the sun and it gets stuck halfway.

If the blind slats are cracked, discoloured and brittle (typical for blinds over 25-30 years old exposed to direct sunlight outdoors), repairing them piece by piece ceases to be economically viable. Replacing the entire blind with a modern model costs two to three times more than just changing the cord. In return, it gives you another 25-30 years of trouble-free use. Modern slats are injected and filled with polyurethane, which are much more insulating than the old hollow ones, thus improving thermal insulation. And you can request integrated motorisation from the factory. 30-day warranty on the repair. Somfy motors with official manufacturer's 5-year warranty. A modern, well-installed interior door noticeably changes the feel of a room. The old 80s painted solid wood door, with worn hinges that scrape the floor and a loose handle, immediately lowers the perceived quality of the space. Replacing it with a modern lacquered MDF or multi-layered door with concealed adjustable 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 for decking and parquet in Santa Coloma de Gramenet typically ranges between 96 and 2200 euros. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting any work. The second factor to consider is the technical complexity of the repair. For furniture with glued joints that have opened, screws that have loosened, or fittings that have broken, we repair easily and well. Furniture with a wood frame burned by moisture or with veneer detachment over large areas requires complex intervention that can approach the cost of an equivalent new piece of furniture. In such cases, we will inform you so you can make an informed decision. The most common question clients with damaged furniture ask us is whether it's worth repairing or if it's better to buy a new one. The answer depends on three factors: the sentimental value of the furniture, the original manufacturing quality, and the cost of the repair versus an equivalent new item. For economic range furniture from IKEA, Conforama, and similar brands, where the price of a new table or chair is reasonable, repair rarely pays off except for very simple, isolated cases. For mid-to-high-end furniture, inherited antiques, or items with sentimental value, repair almost always makes sense. Replacing them with solid wood equivalents has a much higher cost, and the original piece of furniture often boasts a manufacturing quality no longer found in new production.
