Kitchens in Horta-Guinardó: what lies behind the old tiles
In 1960s and 70s buildings in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró it is common to find kitchens tiled floor to ceiling in period tiles. If they are sound, tiling over them avoids breaking out, cuts the rubble carried down the stairs and shortens the noisy part for the neighbours.
In the kitchens we tile in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera we measure the height between worktop and wall units so the courses fit without a thin strip at the top or bottom. We mark sockets, the extractor outlet and water points beforehand so each tile is cut accurately.
After the visit you get an itemised quote separating removal, preparation and tiling; if units are being fitted, the site manager coordinates both jobs. We also work nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions
01Kitchen tiling in Horta-Guinardó: which areas do you cover?
We work in Horta-Guinardó in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó, Can Baró, El Carmel, La Teixonera, Horta, La Clota and La Font d'en Fargues, and also nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.
02Should the old tiles come off, or can you tile over them?
If the existing tiles are firm and flat, we can tile over them with a suitable adhesive. If they sound hollow or there is damp, we remove them so the problem is not carried over.
03Do the units have to come out for tiling?
Not for the splashback: we work with the units in place and protected. For full walls, it is better to tile before the kitchen is fitted.
04Which grout is easiest to keep clean?
Narrow joints with epoxy or high-performance grout repel grease and don't darken. We recommend them especially behind the hob and sink.
