For homes left vacant from October to March, the inspection also includes technical shutdown. We close water supply valves if there is no risk of frost, which is rare on the coast. We purge the water heater if the dwelling remains unused for more than three months. We empty the air conditioner trays and switch them off. We also check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, if present.

Additionally, a visual check of walls and ceilings for damp stains, new cracks, or signs of leaks that have appeared during the low season. In coastal areas, a specific inspection of external balconies and terraces looking for corrosion on railings, deterioration of external tiling, and the condition of drains to prevent flooding during intense autumn rains. Before opening anything, the plumber performs a three-phase diagnosis. First, a pressure test: all consumption points are closed, and it is checked if the meter continues to spin. If it spins with everything closed, there is a leak in the installation. Second, visual and thermographic inspection with an infrared camera, which detects anomalous cold or hot areas in walls and floors. Third, an acoustic probe to locate the exact point. The most complex case, and one we frequently encounter, is a leak in a pipe embedded in a wall or floor. Without detection equipment, the only way to find it is to chip away metre by metre until it's found, which destroys a lot of work. With acoustic detection, a professional probe listens for the specific sound of water escaping under pressure and locates it with an error margin of 30-50 cm. This means we open a 40x40 cm square instead of three metres of wall.

As it is a professional installation with an invoice, the manufacturer honours its official warranty (2-5 years depending on the brand). We add our own 30-day labour warranty. 30 days on our labour and the manufacturer's official warranty on the installed appliance. The water in the Costa Blanca has an average hardness of 30-40 French degrees. This means that a standard electric water heater of any brand, installed without any special care, lasts between five and eight years before starting to give serious problems. Compared to an identical water heater installed in soft water areas like Galicia or northern Catalonia, where it can last twelve or fifteen years without issues, the difference is brutal and ultimately impacts your wallet.

The price for boilers and water heaters in Esplugues de Llobregat typically ranges between €59 and €420. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The cost of scheduled maintenance is always lower than the accumulated cost of reactive emergencies. The data we collect from our own clients confirms this year after year. For emergencies during business hours, we arrive within two and a half hours. For remote properties, up to three hours. For night and holiday calls, a maximum of three and a half hours. For renovations, we schedule a technical visit with a detailed quote and planning that respects the client's calendar.
