Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We do basic home automation in Navas. We visit the property, assess the work, give you a clear price, and start. Outdoor lighting for terraces, patios, and gardens. Here, the critical factor is resistance to salt spray and humidity. Luminaires with an IP65 protection rating or higher are mandatory in coastal areas. Normal luminaires without IP protection last 1-2 years on the seafront before corrosion renders them unusable.

How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in less than 10 minutes during business hours. To add a new socket where there was none before, there are two approaches. 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 channel with plaster. This is visually tidier but involves minor construction work and repainting the wall. Time: 4-6 hours plus wall repair. Changing a standard switch to a dimmer switch requires first checking that the luminaire is compatible. Standard LED bulbs are often not dimmable. Only LEDs labelled as dimmable work well with a dimmer. Old halogens dim without problems but are hardly used anymore due to consumption.

The MCB, also called an automatic switch, protects against overloads and short circuits. If you connect too many appliances to the same circuit or if two wires touch due to a fault, the MCB trips and cuts the power. Its function is to protect the installation's cables and prevent fires.

Frequently asked questions

How many spotlights do I need in my living room?
For a 20 m² living room, 3,000 total lumens distributed in 6-10 5W LED spotlights. We calculate on-site based on ceiling height and use.
LED or halogen for a wet area like a bathroom?
LED with a minimum of IP44 protection. Halogen is dangerous in wet areas due to temperature and consumption. LED is safe and efficient.
Can LED strips be installed on a plasterboard ceiling?
Yes, in a recessed aluminium profile during the plasterboard phase. If the plasterboard is already closed, it goes into a semi-recessed profile glued to the ceiling.
Does outdoor lighting withstand salt spray?
Only with an IP65 protection rating or higher and suitable materials (stainless steel, UV-treated plastic). Normal ones corrode within 1-2 years on the seafront.
LED warranty?
Official manufacturer's warranty of 3-5 years depending on the brand. Branded LEDs last 25,000 hours under normal conditions.
