Interior and façade painting in Castelldefels
Painting well is about more than adding colour. It means repairing and smoothing the wall, protecting everything that isn’t being painted and using the right paint for each surface. We paint flats, houses and commercial premises inside, façades and exteriors that stand up to the sun and sea salt, and we fit mouldings to give walls and ceilings a finish with more character.
Before and after
The change, in two photos
Shop shutter. It was covered in graffiti. We cleaned it and painted it to match the shop sign.
How we paint
What you don’t see is what makes it last
01
We protect
We cover floors, furniture, windows and radiators before we start. Anything that isn’t being painted doesn’t get stained.
02
We prepare
We repair cracks and damage, then skim and sand with dust extraction to leave the surface ready.
03
We paint
We apply top-brand paint, by roller or with an airless sprayer, for an even finish.
What we paint
Inside and out
We adapt the paint and technique to each surface. In commercial premises, we plan the work to disrupt your business as little as possible.
- Walls and ceilings in homes
- Wall skimming and textured (gotelé) walls
- Mouldings on walls and ceilings
- Façades of houses and residential buildings
- Commercial premises, shops and shutters
- High ceilings, with scaffolding or a lift platform
Façades
A well-painted façade starts with repairing it
Near the sea, sun, damp and salt take a heavier toll on façades than elsewhere. That’s why we don’t just apply a coat of paint: first we inspect and repair.
01
Inspection
We assess the condition of the façade and identify cracks, damp and loose areas.
02
Repair
We treat and repair whatever is needed before painting.
03
Cleaning and primer
We clean the surface and apply the right primer so the paint adheres properly.
04
Painting
We paint with exterior paint that resists sun and damp.
When to call us

Frequently asked questions
Before painting
How long does it take to paint a flat?
It depends on the size, the condition of the walls and what we find when we start: repainting is not the same as repairing cracks or skimming. That’s why we don’t give timescales blind: we see the flat and give you a start date and a finish date, so you can plan ahead.
Do I need to empty the rooms?
No need. We move the furniture to the middle of the room, cover it and protect floors, doors and sockets. We only ask you to put away small and delicate items, such as pictures, ornaments or valuables. That way we work faster and you can relax.
Do you remove textured (gotelé) walls?
Yes. Depending on the state of the wall, we remove the gotelé or cover it with a skim coat, leaving it smooth and ready to paint. It’s one of the changes that makes the biggest difference in a home.
Does the quote include the paint?
Yes. We send you a detailed quote covering labour, paint and preparation materials, so you know from the outset what you will pay. If you want a particular brand or finish, we include it.
Do I need council permission to paint the façade?
Usually the work has to be notified to the town council and, if scaffolding is put up or the pavement is occupied, a permit to use the public highway is also required. Each municipality has its own procedures: before we start, we tell you what’s needed in your case.
Do you work with residents’ associations?
Yes. We prepare a clear quote that you can present at the residents’ meeting and, during the work, we coordinate with the chair or the property manager.
What is the best paint for a façade near the sea?
On the coast, façades suffer more from sun, damp and sea salt. We recommend quality exterior paints that are breathable and waterproof, such as siloxane or pure acrylic paints. And above all, good preparation: cleaning, repairing cracks and priming. Even the best paint, badly applied, lasts half as long.
Which areas do you cover?
We work in Castelldefels and the surrounding area, up to Barcelona. If your project is somewhere else, just ask.
