Descripción
We are Americans living in the south of Portugal. I've just bought a property in the interior of the country that needs some minor work. The house is a furnished small village house in an old but beautiful, typical, small Portuguese village and is a bit far from where we live, so it's a challenge to find tradespeople to work on it. The Alentejo area is close to the border with Spain and full of things to do, river beaches, castles, and other villages to explore.

Ayuda
I would love to find someone who can patch cracked plaster walls and paint. It would be nice if they could also treat for efflorescence. It would be nice if they could do some minor exterior repairs like caulking around the base of the house.
