What we often do in Quarteira

Small gardens and patios

A lot of the work here is in a small space between walls. Exactly what the 1-tonne digger is for.

Groundwork for installations

A cable trench for an EV charger on the driveway, or a supply to a pool heat pump.

Drainage by the house

Patios and driveways that flood after a shower, with water against the wall. A drainage channel or trench solves it.

The ground around Quarteira

Close to the sea the soil is sandy and easy to dig. A little inland it becomes red soil with stones. In the estates around Vilamoura there are utility cables and pipes under every garden.

In a condominium or gated estate you often need permission from the management for digging, and sometimes there is a time window for machines. Arrange it in advance; we stick to it.
