Communication via email and WhatsApp, before-and-after photos, and digital invoicing. For homes that are vacant from October to March, the inspection also includes technical closure. We turn off the main water valves if there is no risk of frost, which is rare on the coast. We bleed the water heater if the home is unused for more than three months. We empty the air conditioning trays and turn them off. We also check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, if present.

Blind tape replacement 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 use identical concept roll-up PVC blinds. PVC slats joined by internal tapes. Cotton pull tape that moves the blind up and down. A collector embedded in the wall and a top box with the axle and rolled-up blind. The cotton tape is the weakest component. It suffers continuous friction every time you raise or lower the blind, thermal expansion and contraction with temperature changes. Degradation due to humidity. Its real lifespan is around 8-12 years in normal use. After that, it can break at any time, typically in mid-summer when you lower the blind at noon to escape the sun and it gets stuck halfway. Motorisation requires electrical power to the top box. If the wall of the box already has an electrical cable nearby (typically from the nearest socket in the room), installation is straightforward. Otherwise, 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 blinds in an entire house, we can do it in 1-2 days. Additionally, visual inspection of walls and ceilings for damp stains, new cracks, or signs of leakage that may have appeared during the off-season. In coastal areas, a specific review of balconies and external terraces looking for corrosion on railings, deterioration of exterior tiling, and the condition of drains to prevent flooding during intense autumn rains.

30 days on the repair. Somfy motors with 5-year official manufacturer warranty. If the blind slats are cracked, discoloured, and brittle (typical for blinds more than 25-30 years old, exposed to direct sun), repairing them point by point no longer makes economic sense. Replacing the entire blind with a modern model costs two to three times more than just changing the tape. 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. Replacing door handles is the most aesthetically cost-effective improvement. A new handle of medium quality (chrome-plated or lacquered steel) changes the perception of the door and lasts 20-30 years without problems. For bathrooms and bedrooms, handles with a simple internal lock. For exterior doors leading to a patio or terrace, we recommend a quality cylinder lock if there is a risk of intrusion.

The price for door opening in El Guinardó typically ranges between 43 and 480 euros. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting any work. Yes, we offer an annual contract with two scheduled visits plus urgent response at a preferential rate for the rest of the year. The cost of scheduled maintenance is always lower than the accumulated cost of reactive emergencies. The data we collect from our own clients confirms this year after year.
