I had a new kitchen installed by them a few years back and got the impression that the guys were sub contractors.
Job was ok although not without snags and mostly fine detail issues

So, Liveboard - the inevitable question - if in the Algarve, would you mind sharing your Builders contact with me?!

I actually lost it as the only English speaking guy died on me; I can get the phone number of the Portuguese partner if you want, but they only work in the Aljezur area.
And he only speaks Portuguese, although maybe he has an English speaker to help out by now.

What a shame. Such bad luck for you, given that good people are hard to find. Its very kind of you to offer, but no, rather too far from us I fear. It is indeed a never ending search - but at least its not urgent in our case!

Worse luck for him...
If he'd gone to a real doctor and had an MRI instead of a chiropractor, he might still be alive today.

He was a cantankerous character, a friend to me and many, and is sorely missed.

What a shame. That sounds terrible and could be a lesson to us all. Sounds as though is much missed on both the friendship and the building front - Reliable builders with English are not easy to find. Actually, in fact scrap that last bit and just say 'reliable builders!'
