I needed Philippine documents translated into Spanish for the memoria citizenship process. Patricia handled a dozen or more supporting documents for my eldest son's appointment at the San Francisco Spanish embassy, and she sent the translations back in just a couple of days. We did everything by chat messaging - there were time differences so sometimes replies came later, but I had no issues and she was very accommodating. Price was very at par and she even gave me a discount on the larger batch; I tried other translators and it was difficult dealing with them, so I stuck with Patricia and had no disappointments whatsoever.

I found them on Google, liked the examples and recommendations, and from the start Sarah and then Annabel were really friendly and really knowledgeable, taking time to understand what we wanted, asking questions that wouldn’t have occurred to us, and looking at where the sun was and which parts were shady. They helped with the enabling works - knocking a garage down, getting surveys - and then the full design with Annabel on Teams and Zoom was fine, with WhatsApp and email making the distance not matter at all. They handled procurement and tendering, liaised with the landscapers, gave advice about trees, and their recommendation of Rightscapes was brilliant, so we didn’t have to do a lot of liaison. The garden is now built with a summer house and areas we can use all year round, it looks wonderful even in January and has made a massive difference to our lives and well-being - we couldn’t be happier, and the price felt fair.

We planned to move to Madrid and hired Pamela and Ana, and it went pretty well. Since minute one, Pamela was putting calls on the agenda so we felt communicated, and the whole process was basically quite smooth. She arranged basically everything for the rent leasing and the apartment, it was just what we wanted. I don’t know the market, but what I paid felt fair enough for what I received, and I’ve already recommended her to friends.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there English-speaking handymen and tradespeople in Madrid?
Yes, and demand from the expat community means more tradespeople now say up front that they speak English. We list plumbers, electricians, cleaners and handymen reviewed by other expats, so you're not guessing.
How do I find a reliable handyman quickly?
For non-emergencies, browse by the job and read recent reviews. For urgent problems like a leak, look for someone who offers fast or emergency callouts. Phone-verified reviews help you avoid the no-shows.
How do I explain a repair if my Spanish is limited?
A photo or short video of the problem does most of the work, and many tradespeople here are used to international clients. Booking an English-speaking pro takes the stress out of it entirely.
Will I get a quote before the work starts?
You should. It's normal to ask for an estimate and what the callout costs before anyone starts, and good tradespeople are happy to put it in writing.
Can I book regular help, like weekly cleaning?
Yes, many cleaners and home-service providers offer regular weekly or fortnightly slots, usually at a better rate than one-offs. Look for it in their listing or just ask.
