In Almancil the post-construction clean is the last step before the owner sees the house for the first time after the work — often straight off a plane. The standard expected is that of a luxury villa handover: no haze on the glass, no residue in the tracks, no mark on the marble.

Almancil and the golden triangle stretching out to Vale do Lobo and Quinta do Lago is the most demanding place we work — and, for that very reason, the one that keeps our finishing standards where they need to be.
Between the EN125 and the lagoon, with umbrella pines and golf courses shaping the landscape, on large plots where houses rarely sit up against each other. High-end detached villas, many with a pool and a maintained garden, where the outdoor areas are looked after as carefully as the inside. Contemporary straight-lined architecture sits alongside villas in the traditional Algarve style.
In Almancil the most frequent request is ongoing villa maintenance — somebody trustworthy who holds a key, calls in regularly, and sorts things out before they grow.
Many owners live abroad and use the house a few weeks a year. A closed house accumulates problems quietly: still air and damp, a pool degrading, moss taking hold on the roof. When the owner arrives, they want it all ready — and they want to have seen photographs before boarding the plane.
In these houses everything shows: a badly aligned mosaic joint, a wavering paint line, a stone out of tone. The work has to stand being looked at closely and in good light.
There is almost always a gardener, a pool technician and a security company coming into the same house. Scheduling the work without treading on theirs is part of the service.
We look at which materials were used and what residue is left, because that determines the products to use.
Fine debris, protective coverings and anything removed by hand, so we are not spreading dust during the fine clean.
Removal of adhered residue, top to bottom, room by room.
Polishing of glass and surfaces, and a return visit a few days later for the dust that has settled since.
We work in Almancil regularly. We set out from Loulé and get there in about 15 minutes, which means we can come and look at the job without charging for the trip.

It is the situation we come across most often in Almancil, and it is why we look at the job before quoting.
It will, with a blade and the right technique. The risk is scratching the glass, and scratched glass does not recover — which is why this job should not go to somebody who has never done it.
We do, usually outside opening hours so the premises can open the next day.
After the last trade has left and the touch-ups are done. If we come in before the painter finishes, the work has to be repeated — and nobody wants to pay twice.
