  • Many DIY chains allow click & collect, which is faster than home delivery.
  • For more professional work (tiling, electrical, plumbing), you’ll often find better prices in regional hardware suppliers like Casa Peixoto or local neighborhood “ferragens” (hardware stores).

Final Thoughts

Final Advice: Avoid Non-EU Deliveries

Buying from outside the EU can cause massive delays and unexpected customs charges. Stick to these EU-based or Portugal-local retailers for smooth delivery and no import headaches.

💡 Pro Tip: If you have a company, open a company account with the foreign companies when permitted.. This allows for a VAT exemption on most orders with companies outside of Portugal, reducing costs sometimes up to 20%.
