What the terrace renovation includes
-
Old floor removed
We lift the tiles and mortar down to the base to see the real substrate.
-
Falls and drains
New falls towards new outlets so water never sits on the surface.
-
Waterproofing
A continuous sheet or membrane, lapped and turned up at walls and thresholds.
-
Outdoor flooring
Frost-resistant, non-slip porcelain tiles with movement joints.
-
Parapets and wall details
Copings, upstands and sills that protect every junction.

Terraces in the Eixample: what we usually find
In areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample and L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample there are many penthouses and shared roof terraces on older blocks, with layer upon layer of tiles and ageing bitumen felt. As the roof is a common element, we coordinate the job with the owners' association and the neighbour below.
In areas such as La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample and Sant Antoni we usually waterproof with bitumen membrane or reinforced liquid membrane, always continuous. We take it at least 20 cm up walls and parapets above the finished floor and protect it under door thresholds, where we find most leaks.
With over 20 years of experience, we pinpoint the problem on the visit and then prepare a written quote, line by line. We also cover the surrounding areas: Gràcia, Sant Martí and Ciutat Vella.

Frequently asked questions
01Terrace 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.
02Does the floor have to come up to fix a leak?
Almost always. The leak is usually in the waterproofing or at an outlet, under the tiles. Adding another layer on top without checking the substrate only postpones the problem.
03Which flooring is right for an outdoor terrace?
Non-slip outdoor porcelain that resists frost and temperature changes, laid with flexible adhesive and movement joints.
04Can a terrace be waterproofed without replacing the tiles?
Clear membranes and coatings applied over the tiles work where the falls and outlets are in good order. On the visit we assess whether that is enough or the substrate needs rebuilding.
