When do render cracks need repairing?

  • Cracks in the render or monocouche
  • Damp on the inside wall
  • Pieces of render coming loose
  • Cracks that keep growing

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 Gavà: why they appear

Near the sea, in areas such as Centre, Les Panes and La Barceloneta, salt crystallises inside cracks and gradually widens them, while the wind drives rain against the wall. If a crack on a balcony edge comes from rusting reinforcement, we tell you: the concrete needs repairing there, not just sealing.

In areas such as Les Colomeres, Les Bòbiles and Can Tries 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.

With over 20 years of experience we can tell a crack that just needs sealing from one that needs a different approach, and explain it in a written quote. Our work also covers areas close by: Castelldefels, Viladecans and Sitges.

Frequently asked questions

01

Exterior render crack repair in Gavà: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Gavà, in areas such as Centre, Les Panes, La Barceloneta, Les Colomeres, Les Bòbiles, Can Tries, Ca n'Espinós and Bruguers, and also nearby: Castelldefels, Viladecans and Sitges. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

Are 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.

03

Why 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.

04

Will 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.
