You need to provide some more information. Where are you from? Are you an EU citizen, for example.
Construction work in this area is very over represented. Many in the construction industry are out of work and this area has a high unemployment rate as does the rest of Spain.

July, August are not good months to look for construction work. It is considerably less paid than in UK. Working hours could be fun as well. You can see builders working very early morning and very late at night, with a long midday break to avoid the sun. Unless you find an expat builder, you will need language skills. With the government changes heading far right, foreign workers are standing on thin ice.

If you are a UK passport holder you will need to have a contracted work offer and your prospective employer will need to apply for a work visa on your behalf from the Spanish consulate in the UK.
There aer many unemployed construction workers in Spain as it has one of the highest unemployment rates in the EU.
