Construction Services in Chania, Crete

Building a home in the village of Spilia has been a lifelong dream of mine. As a child, I spent many summers there, and I always hoped that one day I would have a place to call my own. After years of renting, this was my very first home—and working with Kyriakos and the team made the experience truly exceptional.

From the beginning, Kyriakos made what seemed like an overwhelming process feel remarkably easy. Even the challenges of getting construction vehicles up the steep, rocky hillsides—which seemed nearly impossible—were handled with incredible skill and determination. In less than a year, they completed the construction of my home, and the results were beyond anything I could have ever imagined.

During the construction of the house, I was living in the USA—an entire world away—yet Kyriakos made sure I felt connected to every stage of the process. He communicated regularly, providing updates and sending photos of the progress. My aunt, who lives in Spilia, would often tell me how present and involved Kyriakos was, visiting the site daily and closely managing the construction team. His dedication and leadership were truly exceptional.

Kyriakos and his team were diligent, detail-oriented, and deeply committed to delivering a home of the highest quality. The materials they used were first-rate—both beautiful and built to last. Throughout the project, it was clear that Kyriakos cared deeply about bringing my vision to life. In fact, he didn’t just meet my expectations; he exceeded them.

I now have a home that captures all the beauty and spirit of the village I love so much. It is truly a dream come true, and I am endlessly grateful to Kyriakos and his incredible team. I would work with them again and again.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional work and dedication you demonstrated during the construction of our new home. The result exceeded all our expectations and reflects the quality, attention to detail, and professionalism that distinguish your team.

From the beginning of our collaboration until the final handover, we felt we were in good hands. Your consistency, excellent communication, and willingness to address every question and concern made this important process for us much easier and more enjoyable.

I sincerely thank you for making our dream a reality. May you continue building homes with the same love and professionalism, and I will wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone seeking outstanding construction quality and partnership.

In summary our experience with Μr. Paterakis is as follows: always met deadlines, was very easy to work with, extremely helpful in making difficult decisions, respectful of our wishes, had excellent attention to detail, with kind and welcoming workers. From the beginning to the end, we love our house and are completely satisfied.

We highly recommend Mr. Paterakis with enthusiasm, and without reservation. If you are looking for seasoned and skilled building support, focused on honesty, integrity, fantastic communication, extreme attention to detail and quality contractors… call Mr. Paterakis!

So impressed how he created and built our home, and especially impressed with the after purchase support.  Every day are more impressed.

I am a Norwegian citizen (although born in Greece), I had been looking for a house/plot in Greece. Through a Greek shipowner friend of mine, I was recommended to explore the beautiful area around Kolimvari. On my first visit I met up with Mr. Kyriakos Paterakis and his team. They showed me around the area of Kolimvari and I landed on the project Minos Dreams (now Villa Lemonnia). I liked the location and the architecture of the villa. I wanted to make a few minor adjustments to the inside layout which Mr. Paterakis gladly accommodated.

The building process went according to schedule, and the craftmanship/quality of the work was outstanding exceeding normal building standards. Only the best quality building material was used together with highly skilled workers. During the whole building process I was kept weekly updated with a progress report and pictures. It is evident that Mr. Paterakis is putting his soul and pride in every project he and his team undertakes.

The result was a house which is outstanding in every way possible. Still today (11 years after completion) the house presents itself as a ‘brand new construction’.

Without any hesitation, I will recommend Mr. Paterakis and his team to anyone who would like to build their dream home in western Crete.

I would like to thank Mr. Paterakis for the flawless collaboration we had regarding the restoration and renovation of my home in Spilia, Kolimvari, for his professionalism, expertise, and consistency throughout the project.

I hope and wish to have the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

Kyriako, thank you.
