Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We carry out breakdown repairs in Sant Just Desvern. We visit the property, assess the work, give you a clear price, and start. A highly requested upgrade on the Costa Blanca is converting traditional chlorine swimming pools to saline chlorination. The idea is to add common salt to the pool water and an electrolyzer that continuously and automatically converts it into chlorine. This results in water that is much gentler on skin and eyes, without the chemical chlorine smell, eliminating the need for manual chlorine addition, and maintaining more stable water chemistry. The initial cost is reasonable (around €1,700 installed for standard pools), and the investment pays for itself in 3-4 years due to savings on continuous chlorine purchases.

How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply within 10 minutes during business hours. The necessary documentation to register a new installation with Iberdrola, the local distribution company, has its own timelines and requirements. Our electricians are familiar with the process and can manage the paperwork. As with all our services, the quote is free and provided before any work begins. For an estimate: changing a standard fuse box in a two-bedroom apartment typically takes between 3 and 6 hours of labour plus materials. Installing a new socket in a wall requiring chasing, between 1 and 2 hours. A complete installation inspection with a written report usually takes half a day.

Materials and brands

If the filter system is over 15 years old, several components may be ageing simultaneously, making individual repairs uneconomical. In such cases, we recommend a complete system replacement: new filter, pump, and multi-port valve, installed in the existing housing. A new, high-efficiency pump system consumes up to 40% less electricity than older pumps, leading to significant cost savings over 5-10 years for a heavily used pool. Furthermore, replacing all components at once provides a full manufacturer's warranty on the entire unit, effectively resetting its lifespan. New pump or filter system with a 2-3 year manufacturer's warranty. Plus 30 days on installation. In Ciudad Quesada and Rojales, where an international community lives alongside long-term residents in areas like Doña Pepa, Benimar, or Ciudad Quesada I and II, a reliable heating system makes a significant difference during the colder months inland from the Vega Baja. Although the Costa Blanca is known for its mild climate, January nights can drop below five degrees Celsius, and many homes, especially villas and bungalows in residential areas, are not equipped for prolonged cold without an effective heating system.

In areas like Doña Pepa, Benimar, or Ciudad Quesada I and II, we usually confirm the visit in less than two hours. For urgent breakdowns during a cold snap, we aim to attend the same day or, at the latest, first thing the following morning.

All gas technicians hold a current professional license and are registered as self-employed or an installation company. We verify their civil liability insurance and check references before adding them to the Manitas network.
Can I book a visit for a second home or on holidays?
We coordinate the appointment with the person who has access to the property, even if you are abroad. We also handle emergencies on weekends. For non-urgent maintenance, we typically schedule appointments one to three days after the request.
