Our approach to painting communal areas is designed for efficiency and minimal disruption, ensuring a high-quality finish every time. The typical process unfolds over four key stages:

1. 1

   Initial Consultation and Quote (1-2 days)

   We begin with a site visit to your community in Sant Martí de Provençals. We assess the scope of work, discuss material preferences, colour schemes, and any specific requirements. Within 24-48 hours, you'll receive a detailed, no-obligation quote outlining all costs and timelines.

2. 2

   Preparation and Protection (1-3 days)

   Once the quote is approved, our team meticulously prepares the area. This involves moving furniture, covering floors and fixtures with protective sheeting, and preparing surfaces by cleaning, sanding, filling cracks, and repairing minor imperfections. Proper preparation is crucial for a lasting finish.

3. 3

   Painting Application (3-10 days)

   Depending on the size of the community and the complexity of the project, the painting phase can take several days. We apply high-quality primers and two to three coats of paint, ensuring even coverage and a flawless finish. We work efficiently, coordinating with residents to minimise inconvenience.

4. 4

   Final Inspection and Clean-up (1 day)

   After the paint has dried, we conduct a thorough inspection with the community representative to ensure complete satisfaction. Any touch-ups are made, and then we meticulously clean the area, removing all protective materials and debris, leaving the communal spaces pristine and ready for use.

Recognising the right moment to invest in community painting can save money and maintain property standards. Consider calling us if:

• Visible Wear and Tear

  Scuff marks, chipped paint, or discolouration on walls, especially in high-traffic areas like stairwells and landings, are clear indicators. These not only look unsightly but can also signal underlying issues if left unaddressed.

• Mould or Damp Stains

  The presence of mould, mildew, or persistent damp stains, particularly in ground-floor lobbies or basements, suggests a need for professional assessment and a fresh coat of anti-mould paint. This is crucial for residents' health and structural preservation.

• Outdated Aesthetics

  If your community's common areas haven't been painted in over a decade, the colours might appear dated or the finish might have lost its vibrancy. A modern, clean repaint can significantly uplift the building's overall appearance and appeal.

• Post-Renovation Clean-up

  After major plumbing or electrical work in shared risers, a professional repaint can seamlessly cover patches and ensure a uniform finish, restoring the area to its original or improved state.

For community painting projects, durability and aesthetic appeal are paramount. We exclusively use professional-grade materials from reputable manufacturers known for their longevity and finish. Brands like Valentine and Titanlux are frequently chosen for their extensive range of colours and robust performance, offering excellent coverage and resistance to daily wear. Key materials include plastic paints (pinturas plásticas), which are highly washable and ideal for high-traffic areas like stairwells and corridors. For areas prone to dampness, such as ground-floor lobbies or basements, we employ anti-mould paints to prevent fungal growth and protect air quality. We also use synthetic enamels for handrails, doors, and metalwork, providing a hard-wearing and easy-to-clean finish. For surface preparation, high-quality putty fillers (masillas) and primers (imprimaciones) are essential to ensure a smooth, even base that enhances paint adhesion and overall durability.

The cost of painting communal areas in Sant Martí de Provençals typically ranges from €144 to €2925, with a median project costing around €1535. This wide variation reflects several factors. Smaller projects, such as a single entrance hall refresh, will naturally fall at the lower end. Larger, multi-floor stairwells requiring extensive preparation, multiple coats, or specialised paints (e.g., anti-graffiti or anti-mould) will be at the higher end. The price includes all labour, professional-grade paints, primers, fillers, and protective materials. It also covers surface preparation, minor repairs like crack filling, and thorough clean-up upon completion. Factors like the height of ceilings, the condition of existing surfaces, and the number of doors and frames to be painted also influence the final quote, ensuring transparency and accuracy for every community.
