Drainage in Vilanova i la Geltrú: what lies under the floor
Near the sea, in areas such as Centre Vila and La Geltrú, damp and salt corrode lead or cast-iron sections, especially exposed ones in courtyards and on terraces. We replace them with PVC and leave access fittings where they can be opened without breaking anything.
Before opening the floor, in homes in areas such as Barri de Mar and Ribes Roges we mark where each fixture goes and measure the distance to the stack. From that we work out falls and diameters: the WC on its larger pipe, and basin, bidet and shower into a shared branch.
With over 20 years of experience we can tell you on the visit which layout the fall allows, and set it out in a written quote. We also go out to nearby areas such as Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles.

Frequently asked questions
01Internal drainage renewal 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.
02What is a drum trap and why remove it?
It is a box, usually made of lead, under the bathroom floor that collects several waste pipes. It blocks and ends up giving off smells; today it is replaced by a trap on each fixture.
03Can I move the toilet or shower?
Yes, as long as there is enough fall to the soil stack. On the visit we measure the route and tell you which layout will work.
04How is this different from replacing drains?
Replacing a drain covers one specific fixture. Renewing the drainage replaces the whole internal system, from every fixture to the stack or manhole.
