The bungalows in La Herrada have repetitive installations: the same model of electrical panel, water heater, and air conditioning across many homes. This reduces diagnostic time and allows us to keep common parts in stock.

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 won't open 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. Non-destructive opening where possible, complete lock or cylinder replacement, installation of high-security anti-bumping cylinders. When a client calls us for an emergency (keys left inside, lost key, locked lock), we first assess if non-destructive opening is possible. Most standard locks can be opened with professional techniques (lock picking, impressioning, 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 and replace the cylinder, which is more expensive but leaves the door like new with a new reinforced security cylinder.

The most in-demand 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 of hard water. We replace them with new models from quality brands like Junkers, Cointra, Edesa, with a sacrificial anode to extend their lifespan. This is a half-day operation per unit. For a home on the Costa Blanca with medium risk (urbanisation with neighbours, not isolated), we recommend a mid-to-high quality anti-bumping cylinder. Brands like Tesa T80, Mottura Champions, or Cisa Astral are our best sellers. These cylinders have security pins that prevent the bumping technique — that sharp blow with a special key that opens any standard cylinder in less than 60 seconds. They come with a registered security key, which cannot be copied without authorisation at any hardware store. And they have European EN1303 certification, guaranteeing resistance to manipulation for years. Their cost is reasonable, and the real security improvement is enormous. Full lock or cylinder replacement depending on the case. Quality brand and a new set of keys.

The price for railings and gates in Navas usually ranges between €51 and €515. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. For daytime emergencies, we arrive in less than two and a half hours; the distance from Torrevieja is slight but present. 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. The typical client is a retired British or Irish person, residing six months to all year round, with a medium budget. What they value most is barrier-free English, transparency in work, and WhatsApp updates 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.
