Painting a façade in Ciutat Vella: access, substrate and colour
In 1960s and 70s blocks in areas such as El Barri Gòtic and El Raval we often find cracks along the slab edges and patches of render that sound hollow. We hack them off and rebuild them before painting, always within the working hours set by the residents' community.
In light wells and on party walls in areas such as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera we work on ropes without scaffolding, covering windows, washing lines and air-conditioning units. Each finished section is checked before we move down to the next.
We look at the façade up close, test the render and prepare a detailed written quote, section by section. We also paint façades in nearby areas: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions
01Façade painting in Ciutat Vella: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Ciutat Vella, in areas such as El Barri Gòtic, El Raval, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina, La Ribera and La Barceloneta, and also nearby: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02What paint do you use on façades?
Usually silicate, siloxane or acrylic exterior paint, depending on the substrate. It must be breathable so moisture in the wall can escape without causing blisters.
03Is scaffolding needed to paint a façade?
It depends on the height and access. Low houses only need a scaffold tower or a platform; for buildings with lightwells or on narrow streets we often use rope access.
04Can the residents' community choose the colour?
Yes. We apply samples on the façade itself so residents can see them in real light. It is worth checking whether the town council sets colours for that area.
