Our step-by-step enamelling process

  1. 1

    Inspection and Preparation (30-60 min)

    We assess the surface condition, identify potential damage (rust, cracks, loose old paint), and determine the most suitable enamel type. We remove hardware if necessary and protect surrounding areas with masking tape and sheeting. Thorough cleaning removes dust, grease, or dirt.

  2. 2

    Surface Treatment (1-3 hours)

    We lightly sand to create an adherent base, remove rust with wire brushes or converters, and apply primer or sealer according to the material (wood, metal, PVC) for a uniform and durable finish.

  3. 3

    Enamel Application (2-6 hours per coat)

    We apply the chosen enamel using a brush, roller, or spray gun, depending on the surface and desired finish. We apply at least two coats, respecting the drying times between them (as per manufacturer's instructions) for maximum coverage and resistance.

  4. 4

    Finishing and Protection Removal (30-60 min)

    Once the enamel is dry, we carefully remove protective coverings, reassemble hardware, and conduct a final inspection to ensure a perfect, blemish-free finish. We clean the work area.

When is the ideal time to enamel your doors and windows?

You notice flaking, cracks, or the original enamel is losing its shine and colour, affecting the overall appearance of your property in Cerdanyola. Doors and windows show signs of wear from continuous use or exposure to the elements, compromising their protection and aesthetics. You're looking for a style change or want to adapt the colour of your joinery to a new decor, and enamelling is a cost-effective and efficient solution. You detect rust on metal components or incipient rot in wood, and need a protective layer to halt deterioration and prevent further damage. You want to increase your property's value or prepare it for sale, and a renewed finish on doors and windows adds appeal and perceived quality.

Materials and brands for a durable enamel finish

For enamelling doors and windows in Cerdanyola, we use a range of high-quality materials selected for their durability and finish. We employ synthetic, acrylic, and polyurethane enamels, each tailored to the joinery material (wood, metal, PVC) and environment. Specific primers for each surface, such as zinc-based primers for metals or wood sealers, are essential for adhesion and protection. Among the trusted brands we often use are Bruguer, Titanlux, and Xylazel, known for their innovation and longevity. These products, combined with fine-grit sandpaper, repair fillers, and precision masking tape, ensure a professional result that beautifies and protects your joinery for years.

Factors influencing enamelling costs

The cost of enamelling doors and windows in Cerdanyola del Vallès varies based on several key factors. The size and number of items to be treated are significant, as is the material (wood, metal, PVC) and its current condition, which may require more preparation time. Job complexity, such as the need to remove hardware, treat rust, or apply multiple coats of primer and enamel, also impacts the budget. The choice of enamel type (synthetic, acrylic, polyurethane) and brand affects material costs. The final quote includes skilled labour, premium materials, necessary protective measures, and post-job clean-up, ensuring a comprehensive service and a professional finish.

Frequently asked questions

How long does enamel take to dry on doors and windows?
Drying time varies depending on the enamel type and environmental conditions. Synthetic enamels typically require 12-24 hours for touch-dry and several days for full curing. Acrylic and quick-drying enamels can be touch-dry within 1-2 hours. We always recommend following the manufacturer's instructions and allowing complete drying time between coats and before intensive use to ensure maximum finish durability.
Is sanding necessary before enamelling doors and windows?
Yes, sanding is a crucial preparation step. It removes the gloss from the previous enamel, creates a slightly rough surface for better adhesion of the new paint layer, and smooths out imperfections. The type of sandpaper depends on the material and surface condition. Proper pre-sanding ensures a smoother, more uniform, and longer-lasting finish, preventing future peeling.
What's the difference between enamel and paint for doors and windows?
Enamel is a specific type of paint formulated to provide a harder, smoother, and more resistant finish, ideal for high-traffic surfaces or those exposed to knocks and scrapes, like doors and windows. It usually has a satin, gloss, or semi-gloss finish. Paint, in a broader sense, can have more matte finishes and be less resistant to abrasion. For joinery, enamel offers greater protection and durability.
Can I enamel over existing painted or varnished surfaces?
Generally, yes, provided the surface is in good condition. Proper preparation is essential: thorough cleaning, sanding to remove gloss and ensure adhesion, and applying a compatible primer if needed. If the old paint or varnish is flaking or deteriorated, it must be completely removed before applying the new enamel for a perfect, durable finish.
Do you offer a warranty on enamelling work?
Yes, we provide a warranty on our enamelling work. This covers labour and the correct application of materials, ensuring the finish meets expected quality and durability standards. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, accidental impact, or natural wear over time, but it does cover application defects or faulty materials.
