If the walls in your Badalona flat show imperfections like textured finishes, cracks, or you simply want to refresh them with a smooth, modern look, our wall smoothing service is the ideal solution. We transform rough or damaged surfaces into perfect canvases, ready for your chosen paint. We work with precision on every detail, ensuring an impeccable result that will enhance your home's aesthetic in the heart of Barcelonès. Say goodbye to unwanted textures and welcome the elegance of smooth walls.

Our step-by-step wall smoothing process

  1. 1

    Assessment & Preparation (30-60 min)

    An expert technician visits your Badalona property to inspect the wall condition, identify the current finish type (e.g., 'gotelé', plastic paint), and measure the surfaces. Furniture and floors are protected with plastic sheeting and masking tape to prevent any splashes or damage.

  2. 2

    Product Application (2-4 hours per room)

    A layer of levelling compound or special plaster is applied to cover the texture of 'gotelé' or imperfections. Depending on the wall's condition, one or more coats may be necessary, allowing recommended drying time between each application.

  3. 3

    Sanding & Finishing (1-3 hours per room)

    Once the compound is dry, fine sanding is performed across the entire surface. We use sanding machines with extraction systems to minimise dust and achieve a perfectly smooth, uniform finish. Protective materials are then removed.

  4. 4

    Priming & Painting (4-8 hours per room)

    A coat of primer is applied to seal the surface and ensure better paint adhesion. Finally, one or two coats of the customer's chosen paint are applied, guaranteeing a crisp and durable finish.

When is it time to smooth your walls?

Consider our service if:

  • Your home, typical of Badalona's modern flat stock, still has old textured finishes (like 'gotelé') and you desire a more contemporary aesthetic.

  • Cracks or peeling paint have appeared on your walls due to age or minor structural shifts.

  • You want to prepare your walls for a new coat of paint, ensuring a uniform and professional finish without prior irregularities.

  • You've had renovations or construction work done and need to repair wall damage to make them look like new.

  • You aim to remove wall texture to make future cleaning and maintenance of surfaces easier.

Trusted materials and brands

To ensure a durable, high-quality wall smoothing and painting service in Badalona, we use selected materials. We employ levelling compounds and plasters from reputable brands like Pladur and Knauf, known for their excellent workability and fine finish. Rollers and brushes from brands such as Anza or Covers ensure uniform application. For paint coats, we work with high-end products from Titanlux or Jotun, providing excellent coverage and resistance over time. Priming is essential, and we typically use quality water-based sealers to optimally prepare the surface.

How is the price for smoothing and painting calculated?

The quote for wall smoothing and subsequent painting in Badalona varies based on several factors. The size of the area to be treated and the current condition of the walls are key determinants. The desired finish type (e.g., textured to smooth, crack repair) and the quality of materials used (compounds, primers, paint) also influence the cost. The base price includes preparation, smoothing with levelling compound, sanding, and the application of a standard quality paint coat. We strive to offer a professional and transparent service, tailoring the quote to each client's specific needs.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the levelling compound take to dry before sanding?
Drying time for levelling compound can range from 4 to 12 hours per coat, depending on ambient humidity and application thickness. It's crucial to respect these times for optimal sanding and a smooth, blemish-free finish. Drying may take longer in very humid conditions.
Do I need to remove furniture from the room?
It's not essential to remove all furniture. Our team will carefully protect all elements in the room, including furniture, floors, and decorative items, using plastic sheeting and tape. We cover everything to prevent any stains or damage during the smoothing and painting process.
What type of paint is recommended after smoothing walls?
After smoothing, we recommend high-quality emulsion paints, whether matte, satin, or gloss, depending on your preference. Washable paints are ideal for easy future cleaning. Prior priming ensures excellent adhesion and a uniform finish, enhancing your chosen colour.
Can you smooth walls with dampness or mould?
Our primary service is smoothing and painting walls in good structural condition. If walls have dampness or mould issues, we first recommend addressing the underlying cause of the moisture. Once resolved and the wall is dry and healthy, we will proceed with smoothing and painting.
Do you offer a warranty on the smoothing and painting work?
Yes, we offer a warranty on the quality of our wall smoothing and painting work. This covers defects in application and finish durability, ensuring the final result meets expected quality standards and that your walls are left smooth and well-painted.
