The Charm of Old Portuguese Homes (and the Surprises That Come With Them)
There's something magical about an older Portuguese home. Those thick stone walls, the intricate tile work, the rustic charm—it's the stuff of dreams for many of our clients. But let's be honest, those dreams can quickly come with a few nightmares, from unexpected wiring to floors that aren't quite level.
At Connected Contractors, we don't just love a good remodel; we thrive on the adventure of an older home. We've seen it all, and we're ready for the surprises.
Anticipating the Unexpected
Remodeling an older home in Portugal is a whole different ballgame than a new build. We know that those charming walls might be hiding outdated plumbing, wiring that doesn't meet modern standards, or a damp issue waiting to be solved. Our process is designed to uncover and handle these surprises with precision, ensuring that the finished product is not only beautiful but safe and sound.
Bringing New Life to Old Bones
We specialize in modernizing these historic beauties without sacrificing their soul. This means:
Modern Systems: We'll install new plumbing and electrical systems that you can trust, bringing your home up to a new standard of safety and efficiency.
Seamless Solutions: We address hidden issues like dampness and poor insulation, ensuring your home is comfortable and healthy for years to come.
Honoring the Heritage: We work with skilled local craftsmen to preserve and highlight the rustic charm you fell in love with, blending it seamlessly with modern design and amenities.
Your time in Portugal should be spent enjoying the culture, not worrying about what's behind your walls. We handle the heavy lifting, the problem-solving, and the unexpected challenges that come with older homes, all with the clear communication and meticulous planning you expect from a U.S. company.
