Building and remodelling · Algarve
Nobody buys a building job. They buy a date.
New build, remodelling and refurbishment in the Algarve for people working to a fixed date — the developer with a completion, the hotel with a reopening, the building with an owners' meeting and the shop with an opening night.

Where we work
Algarve
Who hires us
Four dates nobody gets to move.
The work can be the same. What changes is the day it has to be finished — and that day decides where you start.
Developers and investors
The date
The completion date
Every extra week is interest running on a property that earns nothing yet.
What we do about it
The job is priced chapter by chapter and measured as it goes, so you can see where the money is without waiting for the end.
Hotels and holiday rentals
The date
The reopening
The whole job has to fit between the last checkout of one season and the first booking of the next.
What we do about it
The work is split by floor or by wing, so one part can open while the other is still a building site.
Building management
The date
The owners' meeting
The quote is read out loud, line by line, by the people who will pay it.
What we do about it
The quote comes itemised by trade and by quantity, on a sheet you can project at a meeting without having to explain every line.
Restaurants and retail
The date
The opening
Every day behind a closed door is revenue that never comes back.
What we do about it
The fit-out is planned backwards from the opening date, and that date is what sets the order of the work.
Before you choose who builds it
A job does not run late for want of people. It runs late for want of decisions.
These four hold up any job, with any contractor. Worth knowing before you sign, rather than halfway through.
01
The decisions not taken
Sanitaryware, flooring and the kitchen are chosen weeks before they reach the site. A postponed decision does not cost a day — it stops the work front that was coming next.
02
Whatever was hidden
Half of a remodelling job sits behind a wall. You open it, and what turns up changes the schedule.
03
The material that is not in stock
Some finishes take weeks to arrive. Ordering late costs more time than any trade on site.
04
The permits
They depend neither on who builds it nor on who pays for it, and they count towards the date all the same.
None of these four is solved by putting more people on site. Three are solved before it starts. The fourth is solved by looking — which is what the site visit is.
What we do
Three kinds of work, and what separates them is what sits underneath.
From new build to finishes. The order is how deep the work goes, not how much it costs.
01
New build
From the plot to the keys. It is the work where the most things depend on each other, which makes it the work that most depends on a schedule that holds.
Includes
- Structure and masonry
- Water, drainage and electrical services
- Finishes and handover
02
Remodelling
Changing what is already there: taking down walls, redoing services, replacing what has aged. It is where the surprises live, because half of what you will find is behind a wall.
Includes
- Controlled demolition
- Bathrooms and kitchens
- Replacing old services
03
Refurbishment
Bringing a place back up without touching the structure: paint, floors, joinery, isolated plumbing. It is the work that fits in a short window between two uses.
Includes
- Interior and exterior painting
- Floors and wall finishes
- Joinery and metalwork
How it is run
A job does not run late all at once. It runs late one week at a time.
Four moments where the client sees where the schedule is and where the money is, while there is still time to move either one.
Before the price
A visit to the site
Nobody prices a remodelling from photographs. What sits behind the walls decides half the price, and you find it by going there.
By chapter
An itemised quote
Trade by trade, with quantities. A single closed figure on one line is a figure nobody can argue with or compare.
During
A dated schedule of works
Every work front with the day it opens and the day it closes. It is the document that tells you, mid-job, whether the date still holds.
At the end
Snagging and handover
We walk the job with the client, write down what is missing, put it right, and only then hand over the keys.
Licence and insurance
The paperwork, with the number and the scope beside it.
A licence number on its own tells nobody anything. What tells them something is the qualification registered against it — which is why both are always here.
- Contractor licence
No. 113343-PUB, issued by IMPIC on 26 September 2024
4th category — electrical and mechanical installations. Sub-category 12 — heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration. Class 1.
- Public liability
Lusitania, policy 8172504
Operating cover for construction work, with a limit of €100,000 per claim and per policy year.
- Workers' accident cover
Fidelidade, policy AT65841211
Staff on the company's service, full cover under the legal regime in force.
What this licence covers
One qualification is registered: climate control.
Sub-category 12 covers heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration, at class 1. Construction, refurbishment and renovation run through subcontractors licensed for each trade, hired and directed by King Build — and each one's licence is asked for before they set foot on site.
It is written here rather than in a footnote because it is the first thing a developer checks on the IMPIC portal. Reading it on the site first means not having to find it alone.
Check it on the IMPIC portalTell us the date. Everything else works back from it.
A visit to the site, a quote itemised by trade, and a schedule with the day each work front opens and closes.
No commitment. The visit is there to find out whether the date is possible — and if it is not, better to know before signing.
