Matte plastic paint is the standard option for ceilings and walls in rooms, living rooms and bedrooms. It provides a uniform finish without reflections, hides imperfections in the surface, and is easy to apply. For high-traffic areas (corridors, stairs, hallways) and children's rooms where walls get dirtier, we recommend washable satin plastic paint, which has a very slight sheen but allows you to clean stains with a damp cloth without damaging the paint. 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, skimmed and painted, takes 2-3 days of work.

For damp areas (kitchens, bathrooms), there are specific anti-damp and anti-mould plastic paints that resist condensation and steam without generating black mould stains. Their application requires previous priming with a fungicidal product if the wall already showed traces of mould. 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 the amateur skips. 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 fully dries. These details separate a paint job that lasts 8-10 years from one that looks neglected within a month. When you repaint with a good white plastic paint and two coats, the room changes dramatically, and the effect goes beyond pure aesthetics. The feeling 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 refreshing. It's a modest investment with a disproportionate impact on daily well-being.

Of course. Quality plastics, masking tape, foam board depending on the surface. Everything clean and vacuumed upon completion. Homes from the 70s, 80s, and 90s on the Costa Blanca often have textured paint (gotelé) on ceilings and walls. This raised textured coating was standard in construction at the time but has gone out of fashion, and current buyers perceive it as outdated. Skimming gotelé restores a smooth, modern wall and allows for any decorative aesthetic. 80-100 m² with a team of 2 people working two coats: 3-4 days. If prior removal of textured paint (gotelé) is required, add 2-3 days.
