Locksmith in Dénia: rusted locks and villa openings
The sea air in Les Rotes and Les Marines seizes bombines (lock cylinders) and rusts gate and front-door locks within a few years. We open slammed doors without damage for €60-90 in the daytime, change the cylinder for €40-60 plus an anti-bump cylinder and replace complete locks on villa gates and doors for €80-150 plus the lock. We use cylinders with anti-corrosion treatment. More on locksmith in Dénia.
Drain unblocking in Dénia: inspection chambers and stacks after the storms
After a gota fría (autumn storm) the inspection chambers of villas in Les Marines fill with sand and leaves, and the basement shower stops draining. We unblock a kitchen sink, shower or basin for €70-120, use a spring machine for long runs (€110-180) and a camera to see whether the pipe to the street is broken. If a tanker is needed, we call our partner company. See drain unblocking in Dénia.
Awnings in Dénia: pergolas, arms and villa fabrics
The villas of El Montgó and Les Marines have 4-6 metre folding-arm awnings and pergolas with fabric that the easterly wind tears. We replace fabrics (€150-300 up to 4 metres, with fabric), swap arms and springs (€90-160) and motorise with a Somfy remote (€250-420). We use stainless steel fixings so the salt does not eat them. Details on awnings in Dénia.
Plumber in Dénia: outdoor taps, cisterns and pool showers
Dénia's water is very hard and a garden tap unused through the winter reaches June unable to turn. We fix dripping taps (€40-70), replace kitchen and bathroom taps (€45-80 in labour), Roca or Geberit cistern mechanisms (€60-110) and pool showers. No building work, with an invoice. Plumber in Dénia page.
Painters in Dénia: terraces, railings and villa facades
The exterior paint on the terraces of Les Rotes lasts two or three summers before it starts to flake. We repaint terraces, railings and pergolas, treat damp stains on ceilings in apartments at the Port and paint holiday-let interiors: walls in white €6-8/m², with ceilings €8-10/m², colour change €10-12/m².

Roller shutter and fly screen repair in Dénia
In the apartments at the Port and in the Les Marines area the aluminium persianas (roller shutters) jam with salt in the guides and the rollers on sliding fly screens rust. We replace straps (€35-60), free and refit shutters (€50-120), replace slats, and replace fly screen mesh and rollers (€25-45 per mesh). Pages for roller shutter repair and fly screens in Dénia.
Handyman by the hour in Dénia: getting holiday lets ready
Many German and British owners ask us for a half-day visit before the season: adjust swollen doors, redo silicone, check taps, grease shutters, rehang whatever has fallen down. First hour €35-45, following hours €28-35, half day €120-150. Also monthly house checks with photos for €45-80 a month. See handyman by the hour and carpenter in Dénia for wooden doors.

We cover the Centro and the Port, the villas of Les Marines as far as Els Poblets, Les Rotes down to the cove, the urbanisations of El Montgó and La Pedrera, and the villages of La Xara and Jesús Pobre. In Les Marines many houses are on lanes with no visible name: send us a Google Maps pin by WhatsApp and we arrive without circling.
From Dénia we also serve Ondara, El Verger, Pedreguer, Els Poblets and Oliva. Jávea has its own page with prices and urbanisations: handyman in Jávea. For the Calpe and Moraira area, see handyman in Calpe.
Response time in Dénia: 30-60 minutes
Dénia is at the northern end of our Alicante area, so we allow 30-60 minutes depending on where the handyman is at the time: 30 in the Centro or the Port, 45-60 in La Xara, Jesús Pobre or the far end of Les Marines. For non-urgent jobs we usually group Dénia and Jávea visits on the same day, which lets us give you a fixed time.
Hours Monday to Sunday 8am to 9pm; locksmith and drain emergencies outside those hours with a surcharge. Photo by WhatsApp, fixed price, visit the same day or within 24 hours, payment on completion (cash, card, Bizum, bank transfer), invoice with IVA and a 6-month written guarantee.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge a call-out to Dénia?
Only if the job does not go ahead after the visit: €35. If you accept the quote, travel is included in the fixed price even if your villa is at the far end of Les Marines or up El Montgó.
My house is closed until July. Can you check it before I arrive?
Yes. We do a set-up visit: open the stopcocks, check cisterns, taps, awnings, shutters and locks, and send you a report with photos and what is worth fixing. It is invoiced by the hour (€35-45 for the first) or as a monthly second-home check.
How do I give you the keys if I live in Germany or the UK?
Agency, neighbour, code-protected key safe or a smart lock we can fit ourselves. We sign a key receipt, document the work with photos and email you the invoice. We work in Spanish, English and Russian.
Why do locks rust so much in Dénia?
Because of the humidity and the salt air, above all in Les Rotes and on the Les Marines seafront. We recommend cylinders with anti-corrosion treatment and a drop of dry lubricant every six months. If the cylinder no longer turns, we replace it for €40-60 in labour plus the cylinder.
Do you do jobs for apartment comunidades at the Port?
Yes: entrance locks, shutters in communal areas, pool taps, small repairs. We invoice the comunidad (residents' association) or the administrador (managing agent). Communal stacks we refer to our partner tanker company.
What guarantee do you give in Dénia?
Six months in writing on the labour and the manufacturer's warranty on parts. If a fabric, a cylinder or a cistern mechanism fails within that time through a fault of ours, we come back at no cost.
