There are two approaches to adding a new socket where there was none. The first is chasing. Cutting a channel in the wall from the nearest socket to the new point, running the cable inside, and closing the chase with plaster. This is visually tidier but involves minor construction work and repainting the wall. Timeframe: 4-6 hours plus wall repair. Changing a standard switch to a dimmer switch requires first checking that the light fitting is compatible. Standard LED bulbs are often not dimmable. Only LED bulbs specifically labelled as 'dimmable' work well with dimmers. Old halogen bulbs do dim without issue but are rarely used now due to power consumption.

This is probably the most common breakdown on the entire Costa Blanca. The blind tape breaks in the middle of summer, just after you've lowered it to shield yourself from the midday sun. You leave it half-raised for months. Breakage always occurs due to wear and tear of the cotton tape in the inner drum. The structure is exactly the same in 90% of apartments in Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa, and surroundings. PVC blind with box and side tape. Interior doors. Installation, adjustment of those that rub the floor or don't close properly due to expansion with humidity, complete varnishing, changing handles and locks, and installing sliding doors with recessed guides for small flats where a normal door gets in the way. The strong sun and humidity of the sea air attack exterior wood, and aluminium frames move with the heat. Wooden balcony doors, especially, swell in summer and stop closing properly. The solution is not to sand more wood (they won't close in winter then) but to adjust the hinges and apply marine varnish every 3-4 years.

Official manufacturer's warranty on the mechanism plus our coverage on labour. LED strips for indirect lighting, very popular in modern renovations. They are glued to an aluminium profile recessed in the wall or ceiling and provide a soft, continuous light that is perfect for living rooms and bedrooms. We work with quality strips with a high colour rendering index, not cheap Chinese strips that give an unpleasant cold light. For a complete home with smart lighting programmed by scenes, it can be integrated with Google Home or Alexa for voice control. We configure it during a visit. It is one of the upgrades with the biggest impact on quality of life for the smallest real investment.
