The typical client is British or Irish, living here between six months and year-round. They are usually retired or semi-retired, with a medium-to-high budget and clear quality expectations. They don't want to save eighty euros with a dubious freelancer only to have a bigger problem in six months. They want the job done right, with a clean invoice, and a real guarantee. With a professional who can return if something isn't right. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. The sand filter is the second most frequent point of failure. Filter sand compacts and becomes saturated over time, ceasing to filter correctly. The typical sign is rising operating pressure (when it exceeds 1.5 bar, it's time for backwashing or replacement). Sand changes are done every 5-7 years with normal use. It's a full day's job. Drain the filter, remove the old sand (usually around 80-120 kg for a standard domestic filter), and vacuum the collector bed. Then, refill with new sand of the appropriate grain size, adjust the multiport valve, pressure test, and commission.

New pump or filter unit with official manufacturer's warranty of 2-3 years, plus 30 days for the installation. If the filter unit is over 15 years old, several components are likely aged simultaneously, making individual repairs uneconomical. In such cases, we recommend a complete system replacement: new filter, pump, and multiport valve, installed in the existing housing. A new, high-quality system with a high-efficiency pump consumes up to 40% less electricity than older pumps, translating into significant cost savings over 5-10 years for a pool with year-round use. Furthermore, replacing all components simultaneously provides an official manufacturer's warranty for the entire set and resets the lifespan clock. Most villas date from the 90s and 2000s, with similar plumbing and electrical systems within each development. We work weekly in La Zenia, Cabo Roig, and Campoamor and are familiar with common weak points before we start.

The price for breakdown repairs in Corbera de Llobregat typically ranges between €58 and €873 as a general guide. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time, and we always finalise it after reviewing photos or —if you prefer— an on-site assessment, with no obligation.

A highly requested upgrade on the Costa Blanca is converting a traditional chlorine pool to a saltwater chlorination pool. The idea is to add common salt to the pool water and an electrolysis unit that continuously and automatically converts it into chlorine. Much softer water on skin and eyes, no chemical chlorine smell, no manual chlorine addition, more stable chemistry. Reasonable initial cost (around €1,700 installed for standard pools) with the investment amortised in 3-4 years through savings on continuous chlorine purchases.
