About Us

ObraXRAY wasn't born from a single scandal, it came from years of hearing the same stories. Family members stuck with renovations that took three times longer than promised. Friends with new builds delayed over a year because the contractor just stopped showing up. Neighbours who paid deposits and never heard back.

None of this is rare. Months of delays, budgets that double without warning, work abandoned halfway through. And in the worst case, the contractor declares insolvency and takes the money with them, like what happened to 114 families in Palmela.

The most frustrating part? The information to avoid many of these problems already existed. Court records, insolvencies, state debts, all registered in public databases. But scattered, hard to access, and practically invisible to anyone hiring a contractor.

We decided to bring it all together. ObraXRAY aggregates data from 7 official Portuguese sources to create clear reports on any contractor. It doesn't replace a recommendation from a neighbour, but it gives you the facts before you sign.
