Village Houses · Fincas · Damp Checks · En-Suites
Bathrooms for stone and rendered houses in Callosa d'en Sarrià and fincas on the valley hillsides, planned around thick walls, older drains and the comfort of everyday winter and summer use.
Callosa d'en Sarrià is where our office is, so these are houses we see every day. Many bathrooms in the town are older additions, fitted into rooms that were once something else, with walls that are thick, floors that are uneven and drains that follow old routes.
That means a careful start. Before designing anything we want to know where the waste runs, how dry the walls are and whether the floor can take a new shower tray, or a level-access floor, without being rebuilt from underneath.
Our team looks after the layout, the structure, the pipes, the wiring, the tiles and the paintwork. A written quotation is free, and because we are in town, a visit to look at the room rarely takes long to arrange, even at fairly short notice from you.
Thick walls
Solid walls absorb moisture and release it slowly. If a bathroom has always smelled slightly stale, or paint blisters near the floor, that is worth understanding before any tile is laid over it. We inspect the walls and tell you what we find.
Fixing a wall-hung toilet or a heavy basin is different in stone than in plasterboard. We choose fixings to suit the material and make sure the support is strong enough for the weight.

Where pipes have to be chased into old walls, we plan the routes carefully to keep them accessible. Where pipes have to be chased into old walls, we plan the routes carefully to keep them accessible, and we avoid cutting across anything that holds up the floor above.
Fincas
Fincas on the hillsides often need an extra bathroom or an en-suite for a bedroom that never had one. That depends on where water can run in and out, and on how the property deals with waste, which differs from house to house.
We look at those details before drawing a layout. Sometimes the best location is not the closest bedroom but a neighbouring room where the pipes already run.

Comfort
Thick walls keep summer heat out, but a bathroom in a village house can feel cold on a winter morning. Underfloor heating, a heated towel rail or a small radiator can change how the room feels.

Ventilation deserves as much thought as the tiles. A well-sized extractor keeps moisture from lingering and protects paintwork, which is particularly useful in a room with limited windows.

Lighting can also lift a dim stone room, and we plan sockets and switches to suit the new layout. Lighting can also lift a dim stone room, and we plan sockets and switches to suit the new layout, with shaver points and mirror lights where you will use them.
How it works
Because the office is in the town, a visit to measure and discuss the room can usually be arranged quickly. Our written quotation, which costs nothing, comes straight afterwards and lists precisely which work is covered and which is left out.
Work proceeds through strip-out, plumbing, electrics, waterproofing, tiling and fitting, finishing with a last check. You hear from us at each stage, and the quotation states what our guarantee includes. Our team switches between Spanish and English all day long.
Questions
Yes. We check the walls, floor and drains first, choose fixings that suit solid walls and tell you what is realistic before you agree a design for the room. Stone walls vary so much that no promise is sensible before we have stood in the room.
Often, depending on where water can enter and leave. We assess the plumbing and waste routes at the survey and propose the most practical location for the new room. Pictures are a start, though only a visit shows how the floor and walls behave.
We find the cause where we can, allow the wall to dry and deal with the problem before tiling. If a specialist is needed, we say so plainly and do not tile over it. Hearing the awkward news early costs less than discovering it behind fresh tile.
Yes, our office is in the town, so visits are quick and any question that comes up during the job can be answered without delay or a long drive. Our advice here is meant to be practical, not persuasive.
