Which service matches your problem?
When your property needs attention, it is not always clear which trade or handyman service to pick. Here is a quick guide based on common situations in eastern Algarve homes:
- When you have multiple small items across rooms: Choose Odd Jobs and Small Repairs. We bring a full kit and clear 4 to 7 items in a single booked visit.
- When furniture or TV mounting is required: Choose Furniture Assembly. We handle heavy IKEA flat packs and anchor fixtures securely into tricky Algarve hollow brick walls.
- When coastal salt or sun damages your exterior: Choose Doors, Locks & Windows or Painting & Decorating to prevent further corrosion and seal against winter rain.
- When preparing a rental between guest check-ins: Choose Holiday Let & Property Maintenance for fast turnover fixes, snagging checks, and instant photo updates.
Clear Boundaries: What We Do & What Goes to Certified Trades
In Portugal, specialized trades involving mains electrical panels, gas safety systems, and complex plumbing require certified specialists. We handle all general repairs, fitting, and maintenance directly. Anything requiring DGEG electrical certification or certified gas technicians is seamlessly passed to our accredited partners in the Tavira Services network — giving you one single contact, clear communication, and total legal compliance.
