Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We install basic home automation in Mataró. We visit your property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start work. If it trips several times without an identifiable cause, there's a more serious problem. Potential causes are varied. Moisture in junction boxes (common in bathrooms and kitchens with poor seals), a slow earth leakage from an appliance that only manifests at a certain temperature, or degraded embedded wiring due to age. It could also be the residual-current device (RCD) itself that's aged and lost sensitivity, tripping with any micro-disturbance.

How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online – we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. It starts with a technical visit from a qualified electrician who will diagnose the consumer unit and the installation. They'll measure the actual cable cross-section, identify overloaded circuits, and check for existing earth leakages. You'll receive a fixed quote with a breakdown of costs.

When to call for basic home automation in Mataró

First and most importantly. If you smell burning plastic or see smoke near a socket or the fuse box, immediately switch off the main breaker and call emergency services. An electrical burning smell almost always means a wire or component is overheating to the point of melting its insulation. The next step is usually a fire. Turning off the main breaker cuts the power, giving us time to arrive before further damage occurs. If the RCD is constantly tripping, you have an earth leakage somewhere in the installation. Do not reset it more than three times in a row. Each attempt puts extra strain on the components. Identify the suspected appliance by unplugging them one by one; if you can't find the cause, call an electrician. An earth leakage can be caused by a faulty appliance, moisture in a junction box, or degraded wiring. If there's a burning smell or smoke, turn off the main breaker and open windows. If it's just the RCD tripping, don't try to reset it more than 3 times.

Frequently asked questions

How many spotlights do I need in my living room?
For a 20 m² living room, 3,000 lumens in total spread across 6-10 5W LED spotlights. We calculate this on-site based on ceiling height and usage.
LED or halogen for wet areas like bathrooms?
LED with a minimum IP44 rating. Halogen is hazardous in wet areas due to heat and consumption. LED is safe and efficient.
Can LED strips be installed in plasterboard ceilings?
Yes, in an aluminium profile recessed during the plasterboard phase. If the plasterboard is already installed, we use a semi-recessed profile attached to the ceiling.
Does outdoor lighting resist salt air?
Only with an IP65 rating or higher and suitable materials (stainless steel, UV-treated plastic). Standard fittings corrode within 1-2 years on the seafront.
What is the warranty on LEDs?
Manufacturer's official warranty of 3-5 years depending on the brand. Branded LEDs last 25,000 hours under normal conditions.
