| Pre
or post purchase inspections
We
have been managing , building, painting and repairing property for
40+ years in the Algarve, ( since 1964!), and can offer a wealth
of experience to enable you to spot potential problems with your
property prior or post purchase.
This
is a free service if the property is managed by us, and charged
on a time and kilometers basis for property outside our management
area, or managed by other companies. Our Principal, Alistair MacGregor,
is not an engineer, architect or any other specialist body... just
years of problem solving and building. Practical solutions for problems.

Pre
or Post building Inspections
Not
happy with the way your project or refurbishment was handled?
Were you overcharged, have you been dumped halfway through a project?
We
probably can't get your money back, but can guide you as to how
to proceed from here on, and guide you through the process of
selecting reliable and efficient tradesmen ( as efficient as they
get in the Algarve!...).
Do
you want some advice on how to start managing your own project?
We
can help you get it back on track.
We
will not comment on hidden structural faults, or engineering matters,
but can advise on many aspects of practical rebuild, repair and
long term maintenance, for trouble free villa operation.
