In Almancil the refurbishments are high-end and on tight deadlines, almost always fitted between the owners' departures. There is also the coordination with the other trades already coming into the house — gardener, pool technician, security company — which is part of the job and not left to chance.

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.

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. It is the situation we come across most often in Almancil, and it is why we look at the job before quoting.
Only if something appears that was not visible — rotten pipework inside a wall, for example. In that case we stop, show you what has appeared and only continue once you have approved the additional cost.
What changes the figure most is whether the pipework and the position of the sanitaryware move. Keeping the existing layout is substantially cheaper than moving the WC and the waste. We give an itemised quote so you can see the weight of each choice.
Yes, with trade specialists who have worked with us for years. You still have one person accountable and one quote.
