What the crack repair includes
-
Assessing each crack
We tell shrinkage, thermal and structural cracks apart before starting work.
-
Raking out and cleaning
We open the crack into a V, remove loose material and clear the dust.
-
Flexible sealing
A flexible filler or mortar that moves with the wall without reopening.
-
Reinforcing mesh
Glass-fibre mesh embedded in mortar where cracks keep coming back.
-
Render reinstatement
Monocouche or render of the same type as the original, with a similar texture.
-
Final protection
Breathable paint or water repellent so water cannot get back in.
Render crack repair in Arenys de Mar: how we do it
In second homes in areas such as Pla dels Frares, Sa Boada and Lurda a crack can go unseen for months, and by the time you return there are damp stains inside. On the visit we also check the inner face of the wall to see how far the water has got.
Before touching anything, on façades in areas such as Carolines, Cinc-roses and El Cònsol we measure the width and direction of each crack and check whether it is still active. Diagonal cracks, cracks through the wall or cracks that keep growing go to an engineer before repair.
With over 20 years of experience we can tell a crack that just needs sealing from one that needs a different approach, and explain it in a written quote. Our work also covers areas close by: Canet de Mar, Sant Vicenç de Montalt and Arenys de Munt.

Frequently asked questions
01Exterior render crack repair in Arenys de Mar: which areas do you cover?
We work in Arenys de Mar in areas such as Pla dels Frares, Sa Boada, Lurda, Sant Elm, Carolines, Cinc-roses, El Cònsol and L'Estrella, and also nearby: Canet de Mar, Sant Vicenç de Montalt and Arenys de Munt.
02Are all façade cracks serious?
No. Most come from shrinkage or thermal movement in the render and are repaired with sealing and mesh. If we see diagonal cracks, cracks running through the wall or cracks that keep growing, we recommend having a surveyor check the structure first.
03Why is filling the crack not enough?
If the crack is not opened up and sealed with a flexible material, movement in the wall makes it show again. That is why we rake it out, clean it and add mesh where cracks keep recurring.
04Will the repair be visible?
We match the texture of the render as closely as we can, but new colour almost always stands out. That is why we usually recommend repainting the whole section afterwards.
