The company
What does Greece Renovation do?
Greece Renovation is a renovation company that carries out complete, turnkey property renovations all over Greece. One team manages the entire project — from the first idea and any required approvals to construction, finishing and final handover — with one point of contact for the owner.
About the companyWhat does a renovation company in Greece handle?
A turnkey renovation company handles the whole job rather than a single trade. At Greece Renovation that covers permits and approvals when required, demolition and preparation, electrical works, plumbing, tiling and flooring, gypsum and drywall, painting, kitchens and bathrooms, lighting and installations, carpentry, doors and fixtures, and the coordination of all of it.
Complete renovationCosts
How much does it cost to renovate a property in Greece?
There is no single price, because the cost depends on the property and the scope. The main drivers are the size and condition of the property, how much of the electrical and plumbing has to be replaced, the kitchens and bathrooms, the materials you choose, any structural work, permits, and where the property is. We give a figure once we understand the property and what you want done.
What drives renovation costs in GreeceHow much does it cost to renovate a house or villa in Greece?
It varies too much from property to property for an honest per-square-metre figure. A house or villa adds factors an apartment does not have: the roof, the exterior walls, outdoor areas and often more structural and insulation work. On islands, transport of materials and crews also affects the total. Send us the location, size and condition of the property and we will tell you what a realistic budget needs to cover.

Request a consultationOwners abroad & locations
Can foreigners renovate property in Greece?
Yes. The rules for renovation works apply to the property, not to the owner's nationality, so a foreign owner can renovate in the same way as a Greek owner. Where permits or approvals are required, they are prepared and filed by licensed engineers, and Greece Renovation coordinates that process.
Guide for foreign ownersWho will I be dealing with during the renovation?
One point of contact. The service is built so that you deal with us and we coordinate the trades, engineers and suppliers. Tell us where you are based when you get in touch and we will agree how decisions and updates will work for your project.
Where in Greece do you work?
All over Greece. Greece Renovation has its office in Piraeus and takes on renovations across the whole country, on the mainland and on the islands. For island properties we plan the logistics from the start, since transporting materials and crews affects both scheduling and cost.
Tell us where your property isDo you renovate properties on the Greek islands?
Yes. Greece Renovation works all over Greece, including the islands — the Cyclades, Crete, the Dodecanese, the Ionian Islands and the North Aegean. Island projects are planned around ferry schedules and the transport of materials and crews, so tell us the island when you get in touch.
