Plumbing in the Eixample: what we find behind the walls
In older buildings in areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample and L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, it is common to find lead or galvanised steel pipes and soil stacks in fibre cement or cast iron. We replace the flat's pipework up to the riser and, if the shared stack is damaged, we discuss it with the residents' association first.
For waste pipes in homes in areas such as La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample and Sant Antoni, we use PVC laid to the right fall, with a shared trap or individual traps depending on the bathroom. We check the connection to the stack carefully, as that is where smells and blockages usually start.

Frequently asked questions
01Home plumbing renovation in the Eixample: which areas do you cover?
We work in the Eixample in areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample, L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample, Sant Antoni, La Sagrada Família and El Fort Pienc, and also nearby: Gràcia, Sant Martí and Ciutat Vella.
02What pipe material do you use?
Usually multilayer or PEX for water and PVC for waste. We choose it based on the existing installation, the pipe runs and the type of home, and set it out in the quote.
03Can the plumbing be renewed without redoing the whole kitchen or bathroom?
Yes. We can run the new pipe through chases or the ceiling and open up only what is needed. We assess it on the visit, depending on the finishes you want to keep.
04Does the water to the whole building need to be cut off?
Usually closing your own stopcock is enough. If the riser or the soil stack has to be touched, we coordinate with the owners' association and give notice in advance.
