Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We carry out repairs in Provençals del Poblenou. We visit the property, assess the work, provide a clear price, and then start. Improperly installed articulated mounts are the leading cause of falling TVs in homes. The articulated arm multiplies the leverage effect when the TV is tilted or turned. If the wall anchor is marginal, the actual weight exerted on the fixing can triple at maximum extension. That's why we always look for metal profiles behind plasterboard or concrete pillars. We never anchor an articulated arm only to plasterboard or cavity brickwork.

How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we will respond in less than 10 minutes during business hours. Not for single pictures. Yes, for heavy supports or large compositions to confirm feasibility and provide a fixed quote. It depends on the model and complexity. A simple bookcase is more economical than a three-section wardrobe. We provide a fixed quote after examining the furniture.

When to call for repairs in Provençals del Poblenou

The optimal screen centre height is 1.10-1.20 metres from the floor when viewed from a sofa. For walkways or kitchens, 1.40-1.60 m. We measure this before marking. The second risk is damage to the wall. Anchoring a tall wardrobe to the wall without appropriate rawl plugs for the material can tear away plaster or brick when someone pulls a drawer. There are specific rawl plugs for each material (concrete, brick, plasterboard, tiles). Using the same generic rawl plug for everything is a recipe for the furniture falling down weeks later. For complete IKEA, Leroy Merlin, or carpenter-made kitchens, the typical process involves several steps. A preliminary visit to measure and check the wall. Walls are never perfectly straight, and sometimes parts need to be adjusted to reality. Module assembly in the workshop when possible, to speed up the process. On-site installation with anchoring and levelling. Appliance connection, coordinated with the electrician and plumber if needed. Fine adjustment of doors and drawers. And plinth and trim installation.

Materials and brands

For small pictures up to 2 kilograms, a picture hook or a nail is sufficient on most walls except tiles and plasterboard. For medium pictures from 2 to 8 kilograms, a specific rawl plug for the material with a 4-5 mm screw. For large pictures and mirrors up to 15 kilograms, a reinforced rawl plug and a 6 mm screw. For LCD TV mounts up to 50 inches and 25 kilograms actual weight (including mount weight), two anchoring points to profiles or pillars with an 8 mm screw. Perforated brick is the most common material in internal partition walls and non-load-bearing walls. It is reasonably easy to drill, but the problem is that the rawl plug can fall into the internal cavity of the brick if it enters between two walls. To prevent this, we use special rawl plugs that expand inside the void. For medium loads, this works well. For heavy loads, it is better to find the nearest pillar. Plasterboard (laminated gypsum board) is the modern material for ceilings and partitions in recent constructions. It is very fragile without the correct rawl plug. For light loads up to 5 kilograms, a toggle nail is sufficient. For medium loads, there are metal plasterboard rawl plugs like Molly-type anchors that expand behind the board. For heavy loads, such as a large TV, it is necessary to locate the metal support profiles behind the plasterboard with a detector and screw into the profile.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a handyman and a plumber or electrician?
A handyman carries out general household jobs that do not require specific professional certification: furniture assembly, hanging items, minor repairs, adjustments. For electrical or plumbing installations that affect pipes or wiring, a certified specialist is needed.
How much does the handyman service cost?
The price depends on the time and materials required. We will provide an estimated quote before you confirm. The minimum visit charge is one hour. For jobs with a list of tasks, we will review it with you beforehand to estimate the total time.
Do you bring your own tools and materials?
Tools are always brought. For specific materials (plugs, screws, silicone, etc.), we usually carry them in the van. If the job requires special materials, we will inform you in advance.
Can you do a list of minor repairs in one visit?
Yes, this is the most common and efficient way. Send us the list via WhatsApp, and we will estimate the total time needed.
Do you work in holiday rental apartments?
Yes, we work with holiday rental owners for end-of-season inspections, repair of damage, and preparing the property before new tenants arrive.
