Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We do planting in Sitges. We visit the property, assess the work, give you a clear price, and start. The most requested service is the renovation and upgrade of installations in townhouses. Many properties in the centre have installations from the 70s and 80s that haven't been seriously updated. Electrical boards upgraded to current regulations with certification, replacement of copper pipes with multilayer pipes during kitchen or bathroom renovations, installation of air conditioning in homes that were previously only ventilated by blinds. The difference between before and after the upgrade is radical for clients who have lived for decades with outdated installations.

How we work

For a new homeowner in San Miguel, finding the right professional can be a frustrating trial-and-error process. We work here with the same standards as anywhere else: technical visit, fixed quote, intervention with a 30-day guarantee, full invoice. We cover San Miguel town and the surrounding urbanisations, especially Las Comunidades and Blue Lagoon, which are home to many British and Irish owners. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online – we'll respond in under 10 minutes during business hours. When the garden has been neglected for months, the first step is a thorough overhaul. General clearing, mowing the lawn in several passes, pruning overgrown shrubs, and removing several trailer loads of waste. Once the garden is recovered, the most cost-effective approach is to enter a periodic maintenance plan. Ongoing maintenance always costs less than a full recovery.

When to call for planting in Sitges

The second most common service is emergency electrical and plumbing work in urbanisations like Blue Lagoon or Las Comunidades. Here, British and Irish owners are mostly residents with villas from the 90s and 2000s. Aging water heaters, air conditioning splits losing gas, fuse boxes tripping with the washing machine and oven running together. Service in English when the technician is able. The typical client calls because they've had a bad experience with a local tradesperson before. Poorly finished work, surprise bills, or they disappear when follow-up is needed. The availability of professional services with a real guarantee in San Miguel is limited. Arriving from Torrevieja with a verified technician, a fixed quote, and a 30-day guarantee resolves this difference. Old fuse boxes upgraded to current regulations with signed certification, internal wiring replacement when necessary, installation of separate RCDs for different zones. Timeline: one or two days.

Materials and brands

San Miguel de Salinas is an inland municipality fifteen kilometres from Torrevieja, in the Vega Baja region. It has about ten thousand inhabitants and a mixed profile of resident Spaniards and foreign property owners who sought to move away from saturated coastal developments. This intermediate position has a specific technical consequence. The local supply of professionals is limited; tradespeople working here don't face as much competition as in Torrevieja or Orihuela Costa, and the average service quality is uneven. Some professionals are excellent; we know them. Others take advantage of the lack of alternatives to do quick, no-guarantee jobs. There isn't as much competition here as on the coast, and it shows in the quality of some professionals. We work in San Miguel with the same standards as in Torrevieja. The climate of the Costa Blanca influences everything done in a garden. Long, dry, very hot summers, with little rain between May and September, and sun that scorches traditional lawns. A garden designed for Northern European climates, with lots of lawn and soft-leaved plants, consumes a huge 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 trees, and olive trees.

Indicative pricing

The price for planting in Sitges typically ranges from €44 to €588. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. We adjust frequency to the reality of the garden and the season. In spring, from March to June, growth is explosive, and weekly or fortnightly visits are advisable. In high summer, the lawn slows down due to the heat, and we can space out visits. In winter, visits every three or four weeks are usually sufficient. This flexibility keeps costs under control without the garden ever becoming overgrown. We have verified professionals available in under 2 hours. Choose the service and request a quote.

Frequently asked questions

How often should the garden be maintained?
In spring, when everything grows very fast, every one or two weeks is ideal. In summer and winter, this can be spaced out to every three or four weeks. We adjust it to the garden's size and whether it's a rental property.
Do you take away the green waste?
Yes, the removal and transport of green waste to an authorised disposal site is included in the quote. For large clearings, the cost of extra trailers will be specified before we start.
Can you look after the garden if I'm not in Spain?
Yes, it's one of our most common services. We work with remote owners, providing updates before and after each visit, and photos of the result if you request them. Remote payments and coordination are handled without any issues.
Is it worth switching to a low water consumption garden?
In this climate, almost always. Decorative gravel, Mediterranean plants, and drip irrigation significantly reduce water consumption and maintenance, and they withstand summer without suffering. We offer advice without obligation.
Do you install and repair automatic irrigation?
Yes, we install drip and sprinkler irrigation systems, program the controller per station, and repair leaks, drippers, and sprinklers. Older underground systems frequently develop leaks, which we can locate with an inspection.
Is the quote free?
Yes, it's free and without obligation. We carry out 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 won't pay anything.
