We do double glazing in El Poble-sec. We go to the property, inspect the job, give you a clear price, and get started. Silicone seals in wet areas like showers, bathtubs, and kitchen worktops have a real lifespan of 4 to 7 years at best. After that, the first signs appear. Colour change to yellow or grey, small cracks in the silicone bead, separation between the silicone and the wall or sanitary fixture. Also, black mould stains appear that cannot be removed with normal cleaning, or water leaks backwards when someone showers.

How we work

Silicone application is done with a gun and continuous, uninterrupted motion. Stopping and restarting creates visible irregularities. Immediately after application, it is smoothed with a silicone spatula or a finger dipped in soapy water to give the characteristic concave uniform finish. Masking tape is removed before the silicone begins to cure, within the first 5 minutes. First, the old silicone must be completely removed. New silicone cannot be applied over old silicone; it will not adhere and will peel off within weeks. Removal is done with a special cutter, scraper, and in difficult cases, with a specific chemical softener that dissolves old silicone without damaging the tile.

When to call for double glazing in El Poble-sec

We assess the condition of the joints and if there is underlying moisture that requires other intervention first. Examples: water leak • power cut • air not cooling • stuck blind • painting… What this technically means is that here we work almost exclusively in bungalows with similar installations. The same model of electrical panel is repeated across dozens of homes, the same type of electric water heater installed by the original developer, the same air conditioning from the 2000s already in its second life. For an electrician or plumber, this is a huge advantage; diagnosis is faster, common parts are kept in stock. The total intervention time per breakdown is reduced.

Materials and brands

The bungalows of 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 keep common parts in stock. The most demanded 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, Junkers, Cointra, Edesa, with a sacrificial anode to extend its lifespan. A half-day operation per unit. Minimum 24 hours for full curing. Quality neutral silicone is touch-dry in 30 minutes, but internal curing needs 24h to be watertight.
