How we work

First, we assemble the metal structure of galvanised steel profiles, screwed to the floor and ceiling. Electrical cables and water pipes, if any, are run through, and the interior is filled with rock wool or glass wool blankets, which provide considerable acoustic insulation. Plasterboard sheets are screwed to both sides. Joints are taped with fibre tape and jointing compound, sanded between layers until a completely smooth surface ready for painting is achieved. Yes, free and without obligation. A preliminary visit to measure and check the condition of the walls will be made. A detailed itemised quote will be provided within 24-48 hours.

When to call for plasterboard ceilings in La Vila Olímpica del Poblenou

The minimum recommended height for a false ceiling is 8-10 cm from the original ceiling. This difference gains interior volume when there are recessed spotlights with a box to prevent heat transmission or when air ducts are to be integrated. For high ceilings in old chalets where the height is excessive, we can propose a greater drop to restore proportion and allow for more sophisticated lighting. Yes, with chemical barrier injection methods and waterproofing mortars. We guarantee the treatment for 5 years. Painting over without treating the damp never works, it always returns. Full bathroom tiling of 6 m² with average materials, between €1,800, labour included. Treatment for capillary damp on a 4-meter wall, between €600 and €1. Plasterboard false ceiling in a 12 m² room with LED spotlight installation, between €700 and €1.

Materials and Brands

The first mistake is using a standard wall drill bit on tiles. The tip slips and the tile cracks. You need a ceramic drill bit with a diamond tip. The second mistake is using a hammer drill on tiles. Vibrations crack the tile from within, and fine cracks appear weeks later. You need to drill without percussion. The third mistake is not marking the centre properly. A pencil mark on masking tape around the spot prevents the drill bit from slipping. For small pictures up to 2 kilograms, a picture hook or nail is sufficient for most walls, except tiles and plasterboard. For medium pictures from 2 to 8 kilograms, a specific wall plug for the material with a 4-5 mm screw. For large pictures and mirrors up to 15 kilograms, a reinforced wall plug and a 6 mm screw. For LCD TV mounts up to 50 inches and a real weight of 25 kilograms (including the mount's weight), two anchor points to a frame or pillar with an 8 mm screw. There are four common wall types in local homes, and each requires different techniques and materials. If the fixing is incorrect, the short-term result may seem acceptable. In the medium term, the weight of the picture or TV will overcome the material, and everything will end up on the floor.

Frequently asked questions

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