What the façade painting includes

  • Access to the façade

    Scaffolding or rope access, with the pavement and balconies protected.

  • Pressure washing

    We remove dirt, algae and loose paint before painting.

  • Render repairs

    We open up and seal cracks and replace mortar in damaged areas.

  • Breathable paint

    Exterior masonry paint that repels water, lets vapour out and resists UV.

  • Edges, eaves and railings

    Finishing on mouldings, eaves, grilles and balcony railings.

  • Removal and clean-up

    We take down the scaffolding, clean the area and check every section.

What we check on a façade before painting it

In early 20th-century buildings in areas such as El Clot and El Camp de l'Arpa del Clot, façades have mouldings, cornices and balconies with iron railings that need careful hand work. Where the street is narrow or a light well leaves no room for scaffolding, we work on ropes.

On façades in areas such as El Poblenou, El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou and La Vila Olímpica del Poblenou we hand-finish mouldings, cornices, eaves and balcony edges, and sand and coat railings and grilles with anti-rust enamel. Large sections are rollered in two cross coats.

A site manager coordinates the scaffolding or rope access, and at the end we remove protection and clean the pavement and balconies. We also work nearby: Ciutat Vella, Eixample and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions

01

Façade painting in Sant Martí: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Sant Martí, in areas such as El Clot, El Camp de l'Arpa del Clot, El Poblenou, El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou, La Vila Olímpica del Poblenou, Diagonal Mar i el Front Marítim del Poblenou, Provençals del Poblenou and Sant Martí de Provençals, and also nearby: Ciutat Vella, Eixample and Sant Andreu. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

What 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.

03

Is 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.

04

Can 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.
