We smooth walls in Sant Genís dels Agudells. We visit the property, assess the work, provide a clear price, and begin. When you repaint with a good white plastic paint and two coats, the room changes radically, and the effect goes beyond purely aesthetic. The sense of spaciousness increases. Light reflects better off the walls, so you need less artificial lighting. Furniture appears cleaner by contrast. And living in a freshly painted house feels different from living in one that needs a refresh. It's a modest investment with a disproportionate impact on daily well-being.

How we work

One of the most frequent calls we receive in autumn–winter is from homeowners who haven't painted their house for eight or ten years. They've noticed that the walls are no longer white; they're a difficult-to-define greyish-yellow. Mediterranean light is very unforgiving on walls. Cheap white paints yellow due to slow oxidation, especially in rooms with direct sunlight or near the kitchen where steam and airborne oil are present. Furniture marks, splashes from daily life, and small bumps on corners accumulate. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we respond in less than 10 minutes during business hours. The process is laborious. We apply thick levelling filler over the textured paint (gotelé) and let it partially dry. We then sand with an orbital sander until the surface is completely smooth. We apply a sealing primer and two coats of plastic paint. The dust generated during sanding is considerable. We cover the entire room with plastic sheets before starting and vacuum carefully when finished. A standard 15 m² room, smoothed and painted, takes 2-3 days of work.

When to call for wall smoothing in Sant Genís dels Agudells

Many people say painting is easy. It's true, anyone can pick up a roller. The difference between an amateur's and a professional's result lies in the preliminary and subsequent steps that amateurs often skip. Covering furniture, floors, and skirting boards with quality plastic. Applying precise masking tape to edges and corners. Filling small holes and cracks with specific filler before painting, not afterwards. Sanding between coats for a perfect finish. Applying primer when the wall requires it. Removing the tape before the paint is completely dry. These details differentiate a paint job that lasts 8-10 years from one that looks neglected after a month. For damp areas (kitchens, bathrooms), there are specific anti-damp and anti-mould plastic paints that resist condensation and steam without generating black mould spots. Their application requires prior priming with a fungicidal product if the wall already showed traces of mould. For doors, frames, skirting boards, and any interior carpentry, synthetic or water-based enamel. Water-based acrylic is what we use most today: it dries quickly, has no solvent smell, is washable, and durable. It is applied with a spray gun or a very short-pile roller for a smooth finish. Never with a brush on large surfaces, as it leaves marks.

Materials and brands

Of course. Quality plastic sheets, masking tape, foam board depending on the surface. When finished, everything is clean and vacuumed. Precise edges with painter's tape, enamels applied with spray gun or short-pile roller, not a brush. We cover floors and furniture, fill, sand, prime, and paint with at least two coats.
