Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We carry out insulation work in Sant Martí de Provençals. We visit the property, assess the job, provide you with a clear price, and get started. The Mediterranean climate of the Costa Blanca perfectly suits a modern heat pump. Mild winters, with minimums between 8 and 16 degrees. Hot summers, but not extreme along the coast. Heat pumps extract energy from the outside air even when it's 4-5 degrees. They use it to provide heating in winter, cooling in summer, and domestic hot water. Their performance is measured by the COP (coefficient of performance), which for a modern pump in this climate is between 3.5 and 4.5. This means it produces 3.5 to 4.5 kilowatts of heat for every kilowatt of electricity consumed.

An air-to-water heat pump, also known as aerothermal heating, goes a step further. The outdoor unit heats or cools water that circulates through radiators, underfloor heating, or fan coils to regulate the indoor temperature, and at the same time heats a domestic hot water tank of approximately 200 litres for showers and taps. It solves everything with a single unit, ideal for detached houses and large homes. Its payback period compared to a traditional gas + air system is 8 to 12 years in the local climate. A complete aerothermal installation is a serious project. It starts with calculating the thermal loads of the dwelling, sizing the equipment according to real needs, choosing between radiators only, underfloor heating only, or a combination, planning space for the domestic hot water tank and outdoor unit, and a fixed quote.

When to call for insulation in Sant Martí de Provençals

We identify the real cause (humidity, settlement, worn hardware) before taking action. This is a very specific pattern for the area. Solid wood interior doors, especially those in blocks from the 80s-90s, swell and contract with seasonal humidity changes. In summer, when there is high humidity and high temperature, the wood absorbs water from the air and expands. The door stops closing properly, rubs against the top frame or side, and forcing it closed only worsens the hinge. In winter, when humidity drops and dry westerly winds arrive, the wood contracts. The door closes well but a visible gap remains between the door and frame, allowing air and noise to pass through. This is the natural cycle of wood and can only be avoided in two ways: either replace it with an MDF or multi-layered door that doesn't exhibit this movement, or learn to live with it and adjust the hinges as needed.

Materials and brands

Official manufacturer's warranty (5-7 years) plus our coverage on labour. For more modern windows with tilt-and-turn profiles and thermal break, the hardware is of better quality but also requires maintenance. Lubricating the hinges and adjusting the closing points every 2-3 years significantly prolongs their lifespan and prevents air from entering in winter or them becoming too difficult to open. 30 days on the repair. Somfy motors with official manufacturer's 5-year warranty.

Frequently asked questions

Can a door be adjusted without planing down wood?
If the hinges are modern adjustable ones, yes. If they are old non-adjustable ones, you need to plane down 1-2 mm or replace them with adjustable models.
How long does it take to repair a roller blind?
Cleaning and lubricating 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 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 hardware, 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 MDF or multi-layered door that doesn't move. A solid wood door will always have that seasonal cycle even if varnished.
