If flexible hoses or stopcocks need replacing due to wear: 1-2 hours. Another common pattern: leaks that appear in the first month after returning to the property after the low season. Pipes inactive for months undergo thermal changes, and pressure upon reopening the stopcocks reveals accumulated weaknesses. If you've left the house closed for four or five months, the first opening should be done slowly while monitoring the water meter.

For kitchens, besides the standard mixer tap, there are taps with pull-out hoses that make cleaning the sink easier, tilting taps to avoid hitting the window when there's a sill, and high U-shaped spout taps for filling large pots. Kitchen taps with filtered water dispensers or instant boiling water are gaining popularity but require specific installation. Mixer taps are the most common in both kitchens and bathrooms. A single lever controls flow and temperature. They are convenient, fast, and economical. Thermostatic taps are the next category: two separate controls, one for preset temperature and another for flow. These are what we install in modern showers as they maintain a constant temperature even when someone flushes the toilet in another bathroom. Waterfall or river effect taps are aesthetic, popular in premium basins and integral renovations with careful design. On-site assessment with a professional team: included in the repair cost if you decide to proceed with the repair, €60-90 if you only want a diagnosis. Simple pipe leak repair in plain sight: €80-160. Repair involving controlled opening of a wall or floor: €180-380, including plaster infill and basic finishing. For complex repairs with multiple leaks or pipes requiring complete section replacement, a fixed quote will be provided after an on-site diagnosis.

For bathrooms where the tap is used multiple times a day, investing in mid-to-high quality taps pays off easily. For areas with infrequent use (guest bathroom, second home), a standard tap is sufficient. We work with brands such as Grohe, Roca, Hansgrohe, Tres, and Ramon Soler. In holiday rental properties with intensive use, we recommend annual preventive maintenance coordinated with tenant changes. The cost is minimal and extends the lifespan of the taps by several years. Every 2-3 years, it's advisable to dismantle the cartridge and clean it of limescale with vinegar or a specific product. Once reassembled, the tap will regain 90% of its original performance. The aerators at the spout unscrew easily and can be immersed in vinegar for an hour to remove accumulated limescale, which reduces flow and causes splashing.
