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

Silicone seals in humid areas like showers, bathtubs, and kitchen countertops have a real lifespan of 4 to 7 years at best. After this, the first signs appear: a change in colour to yellow or grey, small cracks in the silicone bead, separation between the silicone and the wall or sanitaryware. Black mould spots that cannot be removed with normal cleaning also appear, or water that filters back when someone showers. 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, and common parts are kept in stock. The total intervention time per breakdown is reduced.

The bungalows in La Herrada have repetitive installations, the same model of electrical panel, water heater, and air conditioning in many homes. This reduces diagnostic time and allows us to keep common parts in stock. The most requested service is the replacement of electric water heaters at the end of their useful life. La Herrada bungalows 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 24 hours to be watertight.
