Our exterior painting service follows a meticulous four-step process to ensure lasting quality and client satisfaction:

1. 1

   Initial Assessment and Quotation (1-2 days)

   We begin with a site visit to your property in Sant Gervasi - La Bonanova. We assess the current condition of the facade, identify any necessary repairs, discuss your colour preferences and material options, and provide a detailed, transparent quotation. This ensures all aspects are covered before work commences.

2. 2

   Surface Preparation (1-3 days)

   This crucial stage involves thorough cleaning of the facade to remove dirt, grime, loose paint, and mildew. We then repair any cracks, fill holes, and sand rough areas. Proper preparation guarantees optimal paint adhesion and a smooth, even finish.

3. 3

   Painting Application (2-5 days)

   Our skilled painters apply primers and multiple coats of high-quality exterior paint. We use appropriate techniques for different surfaces, ensuring uniform coverage and a professional appearance. This phase is carefully scheduled to account for weather conditions.

4. 4

   Final Inspection and Clean-up (1 day)

   Once the paint has dried, we conduct a comprehensive inspection with you to ensure every detail meets our high standards and your expectations. We then meticulously clean the work area, removing all debris and leaving your property immaculate.

Exterior painting is more than just aesthetics; it's a critical maintenance task. You should consider our services if you notice any of the following issues:

• Fading or Peeling Paint

  If your current paint is chalking, flaking, or noticeably dull, it indicates a loss of protective qualities and a need for a fresh coat.

• Cracks or Damage to the Facade

  Minor cracks or surface imperfections can be addressed during the preparation phase, preventing further deterioration and water ingress.

• Mould or Mildew Growth

  Persistent organic growth on your exterior walls, especially in shaded or damp areas, suggests a need for cleaning and a new, protective paint layer.

• Preparing for Sale

  A fresh, well-executed exterior paint job significantly boosts your property's market appeal and perceived value, attracting more potential buyers.

• General Wear and Tear

  After several years, even high-quality paint will show signs of age. Repainting every 5-10 years, depending on exposure, is a smart preventative measure.

For exterior painting, selecting the right materials is paramount to achieving a durable and attractive finish that withstands Barcelona's climate. We primarily work with acrylic, elastomeric, and silicate paints, chosen for their specific properties and performance.

• Acrylic Paints: Highly versatile and durable, offering excellent resistance to fading and cracking. Ideal for most modern facades and common in Sant Gervasi - La Bonanova.
• Elastomeric Paints: Known for their flexibility and waterproofing capabilities, perfect for bridging minor cracks and providing superior protection against moisture.
• Silicate Paints: Offer high breathability and mineral-based durability, often used on historic buildings or where a matte, natural finish is desired.

We trust reputable brands such as Jotun, known for its robust exterior finishes; Titanlux, a Spanish brand offering a wide range of durable options; and Valentine, recognised for its quality and colour consistency. These brands ensure our work endures the Mediterranean sun and occasional humidity.

The cost of exterior painting in Sant Gervasi - La Bonanova can vary significantly, typically ranging from €120 to €2,325, with a median around €1,223. This range reflects several key factors. The primary drivers are the size of the area to be painted, the condition of the existing facade requiring preparation (e.g., extensive crack repair, power washing), and the type of paint selected. Accessibility, such as the need for scaffolding or specialised equipment for higher floors, also influences the final price. Our quotes always include labour, materials, surface preparation, and a thorough clean-up. We provide a detailed breakdown, ensuring complete transparency before any work begins, so you understand precisely what you are paying for.
