Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We clean carpets and upholstery in Porta. We visit your home, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. Improperly installed articulated mounts are the primary cause of falling TVs in homes. The articulated arm amplifies the lever effect when the TV tilts or swivels. If the wall mount is marginal, the actual weight exerted on the fixing can triple at full extension. That's why we always look for metal studs behind plasterboard or concrete pillars. We never mount an articulated arm solely to plasterboard or hollow bricks.

When to call for carpets and upholstery in Porta

The optimal screen centre height is 1.10-1.20 metres from the floor when viewed while seated on a sofa. For high-traffic areas or kitchens, 1.40-1.60 m. We measure this before marking. The quote is based on the size of the area, the current condition, and the necessary products. We'll send it to you in writing before starting, and no extra charges will be added unless hidden damage is found, in which case we will seek your authorization before proceeding. Yes, we offer Saturday availability and emergency service on Sundays for issues that cannot wait, such as major leaks or equipment downtime during peak season. Services performed carry the same 30-day guarantee as other services.

Materials and brands

For small pictures up to 2 kilos, a picture hook or a nail is sufficient for most walls except tile and plasterboard. For medium-sized pictures from 2 to 8 kilos, use a specific wall plug for the material with a 4-5 mm screw. For large pictures and mirrors up to 15 kilos, use a reinforced wall plug and a 6 mm screw. For LCD TV mounts up to 50 inches and a real weight of 25 kilos (including the mount's weight), use two fixing points on studs or a pillar with an 8 mm screw. The first mistake is using a standard wall drill bit on tiles. The bit slips, and the tile cracks. You need to use a ceramic drill bit with a diamond tip. The second mistake is using a hammer drill on tiles. The vibrations crack the tile from the inside, leading to fine cracks appearing weeks later. You must drill without the hammer function. The third mistake is not marking the centre properly. A pencil mark on masking tape around the spot prevents the drill bit from slipping. Hollow bricks are the most common material in interior partition walls and non-load-bearing walls. They are reasonably easy to drill, but the problem is that the wall plug can fall into the internal cavity of the brick if it gets between two walls. To prevent this, we use special plugs that expand inside the void. It works well for medium loads. For heavy loads, it's better to locate the nearest pillar.

Indicative pricing

The price for carpets and upholstery in Porta typically ranges between €70 and €455. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. Approximately 60-90 minutes including arrangement, marking, drilling, fixing, and cleaning. We provide a fixed cost for the entire job. If the fixture fails, we return to reinforce it at no cost. Wall plugs are calculated with a safety margin.

Frequently asked questions

## Do any of these symptoms sound familiar?
- ●Water not draining from the sink or bathtub
How long does a normal blockage take?
A simple sink or basin blockage is resolved in 30-60 minutes. Deeper blockages in downpipes or requiring an endoscopic camera may take 2-3 hours.
Do you use aggressive chemical products?
Only when the material allows and the situation requires it. We always prefer the mechanical method (rod, machine) as it doesn't damage pipes or joints.
Can a blockage indicate a bigger problem?
Recurring blockages at the same point often indicate deteriorated pipes, incorrect gradients, or broken joints. We diagnose with an endoscopic camera if we suspect this.
Do you work with homeowners' associations?
Yes, we offer annual contracts for preventive maintenance of downpipes and scheduled cleaning. It's the most economical way to avoid collective emergencies.
Does the guarantee cover unblocking services?
Yes, 30 days' guarantee. If the blockage reappears at the same spot within this period, we return at no extra cost. It doesn't cover new blockages elsewhere.
