Marbella homes range from older town flats built before 1970 to holiday apartment blocks and modern villas. Older complexes often have narrow ducts, old iron pipes, and tight access behind tiled walls. We adapt modern plumbing to fit the building structure of each era.
Coastal air brings high humidity into bathrooms without good fans. The local water also carries heavy minerals, known locally as caliche. This mineral buildup forms hard scale inside water pipes and tap valves. Over time, the scale cuts water pressure, while damp air weakens tile grout and seals.
Hidden leaks often soak into concrete subfloors or reach flats below before damp shows on walls. Worn pipe walls and rusty fittings need fixing as soon as water flow drops or tiles loosen. Fixing these broken pipes early stops water damage from spreading to nearby rooms.
Bathroom upgrades for local properties
Bathroom refit
A bathroom refit updates worn fittings and surfaces in coastal flats. Sea air and hard water wear out chrome taps, basins, and silicone seals. We fit tough new fittings to stop limescale build-up and make daily use easy again. New parts also keep moisture out of the walls without moving main waste pipes.
Walk-in shower conversion
Swapping a tub for a walk-in shower removes high rims in older Marbella homes. Deep baths take up floor space in holiday flats and can cause slips. A flat shower tray with safety glass gives easy walk-in access. It drains water fast and updates the room for guests and owners.
Bathroom refurbishment
A bathroom update fixes crumbling grout, stained tiles, and bad airflow in older flats. We strip damaged walls down to the bare brick to clear out damp spots. We rebuild the room with water-safe boards and fresh tiles. This seals the room against leaks and gives it a clean, fresh look.
Bathroom renovation
A full renovation replaces rusted pipes and failed floor seals in older townhouses and villas. Caliche scale often cuts water pressure, while hidden pipe leaks damage floor slabs. We install new water pipes and waterproof tanking layers. This work protects the home from water damage and restores strong water pressure.
Bath to shower conversion
Removing an unused bath frees up floor space in tight apartment bathrooms. Taking out heavy cast iron or plastic tubs makes room for wide waste traps. These traps clear large amounts of water quickly. You get an open shower space that is easy to wash down and uses less water.

Your questions, answered
What type of new pipework works best with hard water? +
We fit smooth plastic multilayer pipes to replace old metal lines. Limescale cannot easily stick to the slick inner walls. This keeps your water flow steady and stops future pipe clogs in Marbella.
Can an old bathtub be converted without replacing all tiles? +
We can tile just the wet wall where the old tub stood. Waterproof wall panels can also seal the space. This protects the bare wall and leaves the rest of your bathroom intact.
Which grout should you choose for a humid shower area? +
We recommend epoxy grout for shower walls and floors in Marbella. Epoxy does not soak up water like cement grout does. It stops mould growth and will not crack when cleaned.
How are hidden subfloor leaks detected in apartment blocks? +
We test pipe pressure to see if a leak is in the hot or cold lines. Electronic damp meters then trace water moving through the floor slab. This finds leaks before water drips through the ceiling of the flat below.
What happens if I am not happy with the bathroom renovation? +
5-year warranty on the workmanship.
