Formal warranty on the treatment. If damp returns at the same point, we come back. Chemical injection, exterior waterproofing, breathable coating or ventilation by diagnosis. There are four damp types we routinely see on the Costa Blanca, each with different cause, diagnosis and treatment. Mixing them up inevitably leads to ineffective treatments and wasted money. That’s why we always start with a technical diagnosis visit before quoting anything. The difference between properly and poorly treating damp changes durability from five years to six months.

The most common mistake with damp is repainting the affected wall. Works the first month, then damp returns worse than before, because the new paint creates a barrier trapping water inside the wall. Damp doesn’t cure with paint. It cures by identifying the water source and cutting it at its entry point. Only then is the wall repaired with proper technique and repainted. Treatment is chemical barrier injection. We drill small holes at the base of the wall at regular intervals and inject a resin that penetrates and forms a horizontal impermeable barrier. That barrier stops water rising further by capillarity. Above the barrier, we can repair and repaint with breathable paint system. We warrant the treatment for 5 years. Damp climbing up walls from the floor through capillary action of porous materials. Shows as a damp patch on ground floor up to a metre from the floor, often with white efflorescence (salts crystallising as water evaporates). Typical in older ground-floor homes, especially areas with high water table near the sea.

The price for chimneys in Pubilla Cases typically ranges between 195 and 5355 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. Treatment is proper ventilation combined with internal thermal insulation. Bathroom and kitchen extractor fan installation with correct flow, cross-ventilation of rooms, and in serious cases of very cold walls, internal insulation with sprayed cork or sandwich panel. Without solving the cause (vapour with nowhere to go), any paint applied turns black again. Damp formed when interior air laden with vapour hits a cold surface. Typical in kitchens and bathrooms without proper ventilation, also in rooms exposed to north-facing facades that get colder in winter. Shows as water droplets on glass, cold corners of rooms, black mould stains in cold wall zones.
