Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We do waterproofing in El Guinardó. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. Palm trees are emblematic of the area, but they accumulate dry fronds that look unsightly and can be dangerous if they fall. We clean the trunk, remove dry fronds and fruit, and shape the crown. On the Costa Blanca, we pay special attention to the red palm weevil, a pest that drills into the trunk. If we detect symptoms, we'll notify you and coordinate the appropriate treatment. For tall palm trees, we use safe equipment and, when necessary, personnel specialised in working at height.

How we work

Pruning generates a large volume of branches and debris. Collection and removal to a waste disposal site or authorised manager are always included in the quote. We don't leave piles or bags in the garden. For large pruning jobs requiring several trailer loads of debris, we'll inform you of the removal cost before starting, so there are no surprises. Collection and removal of all pruning waste to an authorised manager, included in the quote. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours.

When to call for waterproofing in El Guinardó

We work with safe lifting equipment and, when necessary, specialised personnel for tall hedges, palm trees, and trees that cannot be reached from the ground. For aesthetic and safety reasons, it's advisable to clean them, as dry fronds can fall. We also check for red palm weevil symptoms and, if present, notify you to treat the palm tree in time. The ideal frequency depends on the species and the season. In spring and early summer, when growth is vigorous, one or two trims are recommended; in autumn, a tidy-up to leave it clean for winter. We'll advise you on the best schedule to keep the hedge dense and healthy without over-pruning.

Materials and Brands

Coverage for replaced parts and labour. Manufacturer's official warranty on original parts. Second issue: faulty thermostat. The thermostat is the sensor that measures the internal temperature and compares it with the programmed temperature. When it fails, the oven may never reach the programmed temperature or may overheat and burn food. Diagnosis is done using a kitchen thermometer inserted into the oven. If the oven's reading doesn't match the actual thermometer reading, the thermostat is the cause. Catalytic liners are gentler: special walls coated with a material that oxidises grease at normal cooking temperatures. It doesn't require a special cycle, but the walls eventually become saturated and stop absorbing grease. Replacing catalytic panels costs less than changing the oven and restores the original self-cleaning function.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to paint a whole home?
An 80-100 m² home with a 2-person crew takes 3-4 days to paint with two coats. If walls need repairing, smoothing out textured plaster, or treating dampness beforehand, add 2-3 days.
Do you paint exterior facades at height?
Yes, up to the second floor with our own lifting platforms. For higher buildings, we work with specialised companies authorised for vertical work.
Do you treat rising damp?
Yes, using chemical barrier injection methods and waterproofing mortars. We guarantee the treatment for 5 years. Painting over dampness without treating it never works; it always comes back.
Do you do small, full renovations?
Yes, for bathrooms and kitchens up to 15 m², we do them completely: demolition, plumbing, electricity, tiling, sanitaryware, and painting. For larger renovations, we refer you to a specialised construction partner.
Do you cover and protect the home before painting?
Of course. We cover floors with hardboard or thick plastic, protect sockets and skirting boards with tape, and move light furniture. We shift heavy items to the centre of the room.
Is the quote free?
Yes, free and no obligation. A prior visit to measure and check wall condition. A detailed quote by item within 24-48 hours.
