What timber joinery repair includes
-
Piece-by-piece assessment
We check for damp, woodworm and loose joints to decide what to repair and what to replace.
-
Timber splicing
Only the damaged part of the frame or sash is cut out and replaced with new, well-glued timber.
-
Woodworm treatment
Insecticide and fungicide applied wherever there are tunnels or damp.
-
Easing and adjusting
We plane, reset hinges and adjust so doors and windows open and close freely.
-
Hardware and draught seals
New hinges, espagnolettes and locks, plus seals to stop draughts.
-
Sanding and finishing
Sanding, filler and stain, varnish or paint to protect the wood from sun and rain.
Repairing timber doors and windows in Ciutat Vella
In areas such as El Barri Gòtic and El Raval residents' associations also call us about the timber street door, which suffers from daily use and the weather. We agree working hours with the association and keep the entrance usable while we work.
To finish joinery in areas such as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera we strip flaking old coats, sand and prime, then apply wood stain, varnish or enamel. We match the shade with tests on the timber itself and seal the end grain well, as that is where water gets in.
On the visit we check every door and window and give you a detailed written quote, piece by piece; a site manager organises the work. We also repair timber joinery in nearby areas: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions
01Timber joinery repair 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.
02Is it worth repairing an old timber window rather than replacing it?
Often it is: if most of the frame is sound, a splice, careful adjustment and a fresh finish bring back a tight closure and the original look. If the wood is rotten in several places, we tell you at the visit and consider replacement.
03Can wood with woodworm be repaired?
Yes, if the damage is localised. We treat the tunnels, consolidate or replace the affected part and apply a finish that protects the piece. When woodworm has weakened the structure, we recommend replacing that element.
04Can you match the colour of the other doors?
Yes, we adjust the stain or paint with test patches on the wood itself until it comes close to the tone of the other pieces.
