Building in Crete, answered
Do you handle building permits and technical studies in Crete?
Yes. Architectural design, structural and technical studies, and the full building-permit process are handled in-house: the same team that later builds your project. We have been navigating Cretan and Greek building regulations since 1978.
Do you build villas for foreign property owners?
Yes, a large share of our residential work is for owners abroad. We deliver turn-key: design, permits, construction, supervision and handover, with English-speaking project management and regular photo and video reporting while you are away.
Which areas of Crete do you cover?
The whole island. We are based in Heraklion and have delivered projects in Knossos, Archanes, Avgeniki, Kastelli, Agios Nikolaos, Agia Marina and Voukolies in Chania, Sisi in Lasithi and on the south coast of Crete.
What types of projects do you deliver?
Four categories: residential (villas, apartment buildings), commercial (hotels, retail, clinics), public infrastructure (campus works, networks, public space) and sports facilities (stadiums, pitches, sports centers).
