What the crack repair includes
-
Assessing each crack
We tell shrinkage, thermal and structural cracks apart before starting work.
-
Raking out and cleaning
We open the crack into a V, remove loose material and clear the dust.
-
Flexible sealing
A flexible filler or mortar that moves with the wall without reopening.
-
Reinforcing mesh
Glass-fibre mesh embedded in mortar where cracks keep coming back.
-
Render reinstatement
Monocouche or render of the same type as the original, with a similar texture.
-
Final protection
Breathable paint or water repellent so water cannot get back in.
Façade cracks in El Prat de Llobregat: why they appear
In second homes in areas such as Centre and Eixample Sud a crack can go unseen for months, and by the time you return there are damp stains inside. On the visit we also check the inner face of the wall to see how far the water has got.
In areas such as Sant Cosme, Sant Jordi - Ribera Baixa and La Granja we cut the crack open in a V, remove loose material and dust, prime the edges and fill with polyurethane sealant or flexible mortar. That way the seal moves with the wall instead of breaking.
We protect pavements, windows and gardens, take down scaffolding or ropes at the end and leave the area clean. We repair façades nearby too: L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Cornellà de Llobregat and Sant Boi de Llobregat.

Frequently asked questions
01Exterior render crack repair in El Prat de Llobregat: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in El Prat de Llobregat, in areas such as Centre, Eixample Sud, Sant Cosme, Sant Jordi - Ribera Baixa, La Granja, Jardins de la Pau, Les Palmeres and La Barceloneta, and also nearby: L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Cornellà de Llobregat and Sant Boi de Llobregat. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02Are all façade cracks serious?
No. Most come from shrinkage or thermal movement in the render and are repaired with sealing and mesh. If we see diagonal cracks, cracks running through the wall or cracks that keep growing, we recommend having a surveyor check the structure first.
03Why is filling the crack not enough?
If the crack is not opened up and sealed with a flexible material, movement in the wall makes it show again. That is why we rake it out, clean it and add mesh where cracks keep recurring.
04Will the repair be visible?
We match the texture of the render as closely as we can, but new colour almost always stands out. That is why we usually recommend repainting the whole section afterwards.
