How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll respond within 10 minutes during working hours. Once the surface is clean and dry, we offer two optional finishes. Grout sealing delays the regrowth of weeds and grime and makes future cleaning easier. The anti-slip treatment is highly recommended in high-traffic areas and around swimming pools, where wet tiles pose a real risk to children and the elderly. In terms of frequency, on the Costa Blanca, an annual spring clean is sufficient for most terraces. Shady areas or those with many nearby trees may need it twice a year. We arrive with a professional pressure washer, a rotating surface nozzle for large areas, and a lance for corners, joints, and edges. First, we remove furniture, pots, and obstacles, sweep up loose dirt, and if there are greasy or tyre stains on the driveway, we apply a specific degreaser to act before the pressure water. Then, we clean the entire surface with ordered passes to avoid leaving marks, paying special attention to joints and corners where grime accumulates.

When to call for a vertical garden in El Guinardó

The local climate is very demanding on outdoor floors. Sahara dust and haze leave a thin brown-yellowish layer on the terrace, while irrigation and night humidity encourage grime and moss in shady areas. Near the coast, salt spray deposits on tiles and stone. In a few months, a light beige terrace can become greenish-grey and slippery when wet. Pressure cleaning restores the original colour and the safety of walking without slipping. In spring, when everything grows very quickly, weekly or fortnightly is ideal. In summer and winter, you can space it out to every three or four weeks. We adjust it to the garden size and whether it's a rental property. “They look after our garden all year round, even though we spend six months in England. They come every two weeks, send us photos, and the house is always perfect when we return.

Materials and brands

We clean terraces, porches, solariums, paths, walkways, and driveways made of all types of material. Porcelain stoneware, natural stone, stamped concrete, microcement, cobblestones, and hydraulic tiles. Each material requires a different pressure and nozzle, which is why we always do a test in an inconspicuous area before tackling the entire surface. For most: porcelain stoneware, natural stone, stamped concrete, microcement, cobblestones, and hydraulic tiles. We always conduct a preliminary test in an inconspicuous area and adjust the pressure to avoid damaging the material. The Costa Blanca climate dictates everything done in a garden. Long, dry, and very hot summers, with little rain between May and September and a sun that punishes traditional lawns. A garden designed for Northern European climates, with a lot of lawn and soft-leaved plants, consumes an enormous amount of water and suffers in July and August. That's why more and more clients are opting for low-consumption gardens. Decorative gravel, Mediterranean plants (lavender, rosemary, oleander, cacti and succulents), palm and olive trees.

Frequently asked questions

How often should you maintain the garden?
In spring, when everything grows very quickly, weekly or fortnightly is ideal. In summer and winter, you can space it out to every three or four weeks. We adjust it to the garden size and whether it's a rental property.
Do you remove green waste?
Yes, removal and transport of green waste to a recycling centre or authorised disposal site is included in the quote. For large clearing jobs, the cost of extra trailers will be indicated before starting.
Can you look after the garden if I'm not in Spain?
Yes, this is one of our most common services. We work with remote owners, sending notifications before and after each visit, and photos of the result if requested. Payments and coordination from a distance are no problem.
Is it worth switching to a low-water consumption garden?
Given the local climate, almost always. Decorative gravel, Mediterranean plants, and drip irrigation significantly reduce water consumption and maintenance, and they withstand summer without suffering. We advise you without obligation.
Do you install and repair automatic irrigation?
Yes, we install drip and sprinkler irrigation, programme the controller by season, and repair leaks, drippers, and sprinklers. In old buried systems, leaks are very common and can be located with an inspection.
Is the quote free?
Yes, it's free and with no obligation. We make a preliminary visit to see the garden, measure hedges and surfaces, and give you a fixed price. If you decide not to hire us, you pay nothing.
