We do Venetian plaster in Sants. We visit the property, assess the work, provide a clear price, and then begin. The most common mistake with damp issues is repainting the affected wall. It works for the first month, then the damp reappears, worse than before. The new paint creates a barrier that traps water inside the wall. Damp isn't cured by painting. It's cured by identifying the source of the water and stopping it at its point of entry. Only then do we repair the wall using the appropriate technique and repaint.

How we work

Rising damp, roof leaks, internal condensation, and salt efflorescence. Diagnosis before action. Chemical injection, external waterproofing, breathable coating or ventilation as per diagnosis. We start with ceilings, lights, air ducts, and high parts of cupboards, where the finest dust accumulates. We then proceed to walls, doors, frames, skirting boards, radiators, and blind guides. After that, internal and external carpentry, windows inside and out, taps and sanitary fixtures. We finish with the floors, which are done last because they collect everything that falls during the process. Thorough vacuuming, mopping with a neutral product, and, if necessary, a second mop to remove the last veil of construction dust.

When to call for Venetian plaster in Sants

Formal guarantee on the treatment. If the damp reappears in the same spot, we return. This is damp that rises from the ground through the walls by capillary action of porous materials. It manifests as a damp stain on the ground floor at a height of up to one metre from the floor, often with white efflorescence (salts that crystallise as water evaporates). It is typical in old ground-floor properties, especially in areas with a high water table near the sea. There are four types of damp we commonly see on the Costa Blanca, each with different causes, diagnoses, and treatments. Confusing them inevitably leads to ineffective treatments and wasted money. That's why we always start with a diagnostic technical visit before quoting anything. The difference between treating damp well or poorly changes the durability of the result from five years to six months.

Materials and brands

No, we choose the product compatible with each material (stoneware, marble, microcement, parquet) after prior assessment. This is precisely what prevents scratching or clouding new surfaces. Yes, we do complete bathroom and kitchen renovations up to 15 m². Demolition, plumbing, electricity, tiling, sanitaryware, and painting. For larger projects, we refer to a partner contractor. Yes, by chemical barrier injection and waterproofing mortars. Treatment guaranteed for 5 years. Painting over without treating never works, the damp returns.

Indicative pricing

The price for Venetian plaster in Sants usually ranges between 147 and 1525 euros. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. The result is a home ready to move into or to hand over to a tenant or buyer, with no dust reappearing after two days, and no residue on windows and taps. We carry out a free prior assessment to give you a fixed price based on the area and condition. Masonry work leaves more residue than a simple paint change. All work comes with a 30-day guarantee.
