Can a door be adjusted without trimming wood?

If the hinges are modern adjustable ones, yes. If they are old non-adjustable ones, you need to reduce 1-2 mm or replace them with adjustable models.

How long does it take to repair a roller blind?

Cleaning and lubrication of guides: 30-45 min per blind. Changing the tape: an extra 30-45 min if the box is normally accessible.

Why does air come through the 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 regulate 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 an MDF or multi-layered door that doesn't move. A solid wood door will always have this seasonal cycle even if varnished.

We do insulation in El Guinardó. We visit the property, inspect the work, provide a clear price, and get started. Changing roller blind tape is probably the most requested repair in the entire area. The reason is structural. 90 percent of homes in apartment blocks in Torrevieja, Punta Prima, Pilar de la Horadada, or La Mata use identical PVC roller blinds in concept. PVC slats connected by internal tapes. Cotton traction tape that raises and lowers the blind. Recessed collector in the wall and upper box with the axle and rolled-up blind. The cotton tape is the weakest component. It suffers continuous friction every time you raise or lower the blind, thermal expansion and contraction with temperature changes. Degradation due to humidity. Its actual lifespan is around 8-12 years under normal use. After this point, it can break at any time, typically

When to call for insulation in El Guinardó

Yes, but first we locate the leak. Recharging without repairing is illegal and a temporary patch. If there is a leak, we repair first, then recharge. The electrical inspection includes the nominal consumption of the compressor at start-up and during operation, checking the insulation of the wiring, the condition of the starting capacitors (which degrade after the seventh or eighth year), and verification of the thermostat. Final disinfection with a certified product for air conditioning eliminates bacteria, fungi, and odours accumulated in the coil. This is what prevents the characteristic musty smell when you start the air conditioning after winter. The real economic saving of maintenance is easily calculated. A serious air conditioning breakdown in August, with compressor replacement or major leak repair, costs several times what an annual maintenance costs for 5 consecutive years. Our own customer data confirms that equipment with scheduled maintenance lasts 40 percent longer than equipment without any maintenance.
