Default Builder needed in Tavira

Can anyone help with a positive experience of using an English-speaking builder in Tavira for some alterations in our apartment?

We have been very pleased with Paul Barker 961625320. English but with proper Portuguese Co. Ltda. He seems happy to do very small or quite substantial jobs and also leaves the place very tidy - that thanks to his wife, I think. Mention Mike and Angie in Tavira if you contact him.

Hi

I have heard that screwfix now deliver to Portugal.

They were great when I was back in the UK, has anyone tried their EU delivery service.
