We do Venetian stucco in Ègara. We visit the property, assess the work, give you a clear price, and then start. Specific to homes on the seafront. Saltpetre deposits on exterior walls, penetrating with humidity. It emerges as it evaporates, forming white or bluish stains that flake the paint from within. The treatment involves washing with specific chemicals, neutralising remaining salts with anti-efflorescence products. Application of a siloxane type paint system that allows the wall to breathe without letting water through.

How we work

It depends on the linear meters of affected wall. We provide a fixed quote after a diagnostic visit, with no obligation. The treatment requires addressing the source of the water, not just the internal symptom. If the roof is degraded, the entire waterproofing must be renewed with new asphalt felt or a sprayed liquid polyurethane system. If the facade has structural cracks, they are sealed with elastic putty and repainted with specific facade paint that covers micro-cracks. Only after ensuring external watertightness do we repair the interior wall. Chemical injection, external waterproofing, breathable coating or ventilation according to diagnosis.

When to call for Venetian stucco in Ègara

This is humidity that forms when the warm, vapour-laden indoor air touches a cold surface. Typical in kitchens and bathrooms without adequate ventilation, also in rooms exposed to north-facing facades that cool down more in winter. It manifests as water droplets on windows, cold corners of rooms, black mould stains in cold wall areas. 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 technical diagnostic visit before quoting anything. The difference between treating damp well or poorly changes the durability of the result from five years to six months. The most common mistake with damp is repainting the affected wall. It works for the first month, and then the damp reappears, worse than before. The new paint now creates a barrier that traps water inside the wall. Damp cannot be cured by painting. It is cured by identifying the source of the water and stopping it at its point of entry. Only then do we repair the wall with the appropriate technique and repaint.

Materials and brands

There isn't as much competition here as on the coast, and it shows in the quality of some professionals. We work in San Miguel to the same standards as in Torrevieja. San Miguel de Salinas is an inland municipality fifteen kilometres from Torrevieja, in the Vega Baja region. It has about ten thousand inhabitants and a mixed profile of Spanish residents and foreign owners who sought to move away from saturated coastal urbanisations. This intermediate position has a specific technical consequence. The local supply of professionals is limited; freelancers working here do not face as much competition as in Torrevieja or Orihuela Costa, and the average quality of service is uneven. Some professionals are excellent; we know them. Others take advantage of the lack of alternatives to do quick jobs without a guarantee. No, we choose the compatible product for each material (stoneware, marble, microcement, parquet) after prior assessment. This is precisely what prevents scratching or clouding new surfaces.

Indicative price

The price of Venetian stucco in Ègara usually ranges between €147 and €1525. 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 house ready to move into or to hand over to a tenant or buyer, with no dust reappearing after two days, nor residue on windows and taps. We carry out a free preliminary assessment to give you a fixed price based on the square footage and condition. A bricklaying job leaves more residue than a simple paint change. All work comes with a 30-day guarantee. Call us, write to us on WhatsApp or request your quote online — we will respond in less than 10 minutes during business hours.

Frequently asked questions

How to distinguish capillary action from filtration?
Capillary action: stain rises from the ground, up to one meter high, white efflorescence. Filtration: stain descends from the ceiling or high corners, coincides with rain.
How much does a chemical injection cost?
It depends on the linear meters of affected wall. We provide a fixed quote after a diagnostic visit, with no obligation.
How long does the treatment last?
We guarantee chemical injection for 5 years in writing. In reality, it lasts 15-20 years or more if the treatment is done well and no new source appears.
Do I need to empty the room?
For chemical injection and interior wall repair, yes, at least remove furniture from the affected wall. We work with protective plastics to minimise dust.
Do you paint with breathable products?
Yes, a specific painting system for damp walls: anti-salt sealing primer, breathable microporous paint that allows the wall to breathe.
