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.

Gotelé in Vilanova i la Geltrú: which type it is and how we remove it

In houses on residential estates and flats in areas such as Centre Vila and La Geltrú gotelé often covers ceilings and stairwells too. We work from scaffolding, protect light fittings and banisters, and skim ceilings and walls with the same system.

On the walls we skim in areas such as Barri de Mar and Ribes Roges 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.

With over 20 years of experience, a supervisor follows every coat of filler and every sanding pass through to the final paint. We also cover nearby areas such as Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles.

Frequently asked questions

01

Textured wall (gotelé) removal in Vilanova i la Geltrú: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Vilanova i la Geltrú, in areas such as Centre Vila, La Geltrú, Barri de Mar, Ribes Roges, Sant Joan, L'Aiguacuit, La Collada and Sis Camins, and also nearby: Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

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.
