Try Mr Jacob in Lagoa he has a shop there. He is a local builder and does a very good job.

I would get two or three quotes and choose which one suites your budget.

In answer to Gunner - I know for a fact that British Bulldog Builders have been in business in Carvoeiro for five years and rely on recommendations and repeat business - if he was a bullshitter he would not have survived. I found his work to be of the highest standard. But who knows maybe Gunner is Les the plumber/tiler.
