Handyman in Arona: installations that have seen a few years

Many buildings in Los Cristianos and Costa del Silencio went up in the 1970s and 80s, and it shows in the faults: old pipes that lose pressure or leak, fuse boards that are no longer up to the job, sockets that overheat and stopcocks that no longer close. When we visit a flat like that, we don't just replace the broken part. We look at the condition of everything around it and tell you whether a one-off repair is enough or whether that section of the installation needs renewing, so you can decide with the facts in front of you.

Arona also has many foreign owners who spend periods away and look after their property remotely. If that's you, we coordinate with whoever has the keys, send you the quote in writing and, once we finish, photos of what we've done. The southern heat plays its part too: air conditioning units that run for many hours, shutters that dry out and jam, and fly screens damaged by the sun. On the coast, from Las Galletas to Palm-Mar, salt air attacks railings and terrace latches. And in Valle San Lorenzo, Guaza or the old town we look after houses and flats alike.
