Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We apply silicone and sealants in Can Peguera. We visit the property, assess the work, give you a clear price, and get started. Silicone seals in wet areas such as showers, baths, and kitchen worktops have a real lifespan of 4 to 7 years at best. After that, the first signs appear. Colour change to yellow or grey, small cracks in the silicone bead, separation between the silicone and the wall or sanitaryware. Black mould spots that cannot be removed with normal cleaning also appear, or water that leaks back when someone showers.

How we work

Silicone is applied with a gun in a continuous, uninterrupted motion. Stopping and restarting creates visible irregularities. Immediately after applying, it is smoothed with a silicone spatula or a finger dipped in soapy water to give the characteristic concave, uniform finish. The masking tape is removed before the silicone begins to cure, within the first 5 minutes. First, the old silicone must be completely removed. New silicone cannot be applied over old silicone as it will not adhere and will peel off within weeks. Removal is done with a special cutter, scraper, and in difficult cases, with a specific chemical softener that dissolves the old silicone without damaging the tile.

When to call for silicone and seals in Can Peguera

We assess the condition of the seals and whether there is underlying damp that requires another intervention first. This is a common breakdown in blocks in Torrevieja and surrounding areas. PVC blinds with a pull cord accumulate dust and debris in the side guides. The cord wears out over the years and sometimes breaks in the middle of summer, leaving the blind half-open. If the cord is intact, it is usual to clean the guides and lubricate the system with a specific product (not common oil, which attracts more dust). We identify the real cause (damp, settlement, worn hardware) before taking action.

Materials and Brands

For more modern windows with tilt-and-turn profiles and thermal break, the fittings are of better quality but also require maintenance. Lubricating the hinges and adjusting the closing points every 2-3 years significantly extends their lifespan and prevents air from entering in winter or them becoming too stiff to open. We resolve those everyday breakdowns that accumulate: a dripping tap, a loose socket, a blind that won't go up. We arrive prepared with common tools and materials to resolve most incidents in a single visit. We assemble wardrobes, shelves, beds, desks, and kitchen furniture following the manufacturer's instructions. We level, anchor to the wall when necessary, and remove packaging upon completion.

Indicative Price

The price for silicone and seals in Can Peguera usually ranges between 28 and 216 euros. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. If it becomes misaligned again within 30 days due to the same cause, we will return at no extra cost. Call us, write to us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in less than 10 minutes during business hours.

Frequently asked questions

Can a door be adjusted without removing wood?
If the hinges are modern adjustable ones, yes. If they are old, non-adjustable, you need to shave 1-2 mm or replace them with adjustable models.
How long does it take to fix a blind?
Cleaning and lubricating guides: 30-45 min per blind. Changing tape: 30-45 min extra if the box is normally accessible.
Why does air come through a closed window?
Misaligned seals or degraded gaskets. We adjust plates and replace gaskets if necessary. Improves insulation and reduces bills.
Do you work with modern tilt-and-turn windows?
Yes, we adjust the tilt-and-turn system, lubricate fittings, and replace handles or parts if damaged. We recommend maintenance every 2-3 years.
Can a door that swells in summer be permanently fixed?
Only by replacing it with a DM or multi-laminate door that doesn't move. Solid wood doors will always have this seasonal cycle even if varnished.
