What they value most is barrier-free English, transparency of work, and WhatsApp follow-up with photos. The La Herrada community exchanges recommendations; a job well done translates into five calls in the following weeks from neighbours who also need something. We know this and we value it.

Non-destructive opening when possible, complete lock or cylinder replacement, installation of high-security anti-bumping cylinders. Changing only the cylinder is a 30-45 minute operation per door. The mechanical lock remains, and we only replace the inner cylinder where the key fits. The new key is completely different and will not work with the old one. This is the most economical option and the one we recommend when the lock is of good quality and in good condition. Changing the complete lock costs more and is justified when the lock is old or of low quality and we want to take advantage of the change to upgrade the security level. This operation takes 60-90 minutes per door. When a client calls us for an emergency (keys left inside, lost key, locked lock), we first evaluate if non-destructive opening is possible. Most standard locks can be opened with professional techniques (lock picking, impressioning key, pin manipulation) in 15-30 minutes without damaging the cylinder. This saves the client the cost of replacing the entire cylinder. For high-end anti-bumping cylinders, non-destructive opening may not be possible, and the only solution is to drill out the cylinder and replace it, which is more expensive but leaves the door like new with a new reinforced security cylinder.

The most requested service is the replacement of electric water heaters at the end of their useful life. The bungalows in La Herrada were built between the 90s and 2000s with 100 or 150-litre heaters that are now exhausted after twenty or twenty-five years in hard water. Replacement with a new model from a quality brand like Junkers, Cointra, Edesa, with a sacrificial anode to extend its lifespan. A half-day operation per unit. Bungalows in La Herrada have repetitive installations, the same model of electrical panel, water heater, air conditioning in many homes. This reduces diagnostic time and allows us to carry common parts in stock. 30 days on labour. Premium cylinders with official manufacturer warranty up to 10 years.

The price for railings and gates in Hostafrancs typically ranges between €51 and €515. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, materials, and work time.

For night-time emergencies, a maximum of four hours. For preventive maintenance, we schedule by zones; a full day in La Herrada allows for several consecutive visits, which reduces the cost per visit and enables us to offer better response times for future emergencies.
