When is it worth removing gotelé?

  • Decades-old textured finish
  • Texture that gathers dust
  • You want a modern, smooth look
  • Damaged or patched gotelé

What gotelé removal includes

  • Protection and dust control

    We seal doors, cover floors and furniture and work with dust extraction.

  • Scraping or covering

    Distemper gotelé is scraped off; plastic gotelé that will not come away is covered.

  • Skimming in several coats

    Skim filler applied in successive coats until all the texture is covered.

  • Corners and edges

    We reinforce corners with angle beads and leave the edges straight.

  • Sanding under raking light

    We sand with extraction and check under raking light until no marks remain.

  • Sealer and paint

    Sealer and two coats of paint for a smooth, even finish.

Smooth walls in Igualada: our approach to gotelé

In flats in areas such as Centre, El Rec and Sant Agustí gotelé is often on cold external walls with condensation spots in winter. Before skimming we treat those stains and, if you wish, line that wall with insulation instead of just skimming it.

On the walls we skim in areas such as Fàtima, Montserrat and Set Camins we first do a water test: if the gotelé softens it is distemper and comes off; if not, it is plastic and we cover it. That test sets the method and is reflected in the quote.

We seal doors, cover floors and furniture and, as each room is handed over, take up the protection and clean thoroughly. We also work nearby: Òdena, Vilanova del Camí and Santa Margarida de Montbui.

Frequently asked questions

01

Textured wall (gotelé) removal in Igualada: which areas do you cover?

We work in Igualada in areas such as Centre, El Rec, Sant Agustí, Fàtima, Montserrat, Set Camins, Sant Crist and Pla de la Massa, and also nearby: Òdena, Vilanova del Camí and Santa Margarida de Montbui.

02

Should gotelé be scraped off or covered?

It depends on the type. Distemper gotelé softens with water and can be scraped off; plastic gotelé is firmly bonded and is usually covered with skim filler instead. We test it during the visit.

03

Does it create a lot of dust?

Sanding produces fine dust, so we seal doors, cover everything with plastic and sand with machines connected to an extractor. We clean thoroughly at the end.

04

Can gotelé be removed from ceilings too?

Yes, the process is the same, although on ceilings we work from a scaffold tower and protect light fittings and cornices.
