Energy upgrade · Insulation · Waterproofing
Most homes in Cyprus were built with no insulation at all: a concrete roof that bakes the top floor in summer and a wall that sweats in winter. For insulation and energy upgrades, Panos works with Perdikis Constructions, a specialist insulation and waterproofing contractor since 1975. Panos is your one person in Paphos; Perdikis brings the crews, the systems and the experience for small jobs and large projects alike.
The partnership
Perdikis Constructions has done construction, insulation, waterproofing and specialised technical applications across Greece since 1975: external wall insulation systems, spray-applied polyurethane foam, hot-applied spray polyurea and liquid polyurethane membranes, energy upgrades, window and door systems, dry construction and floors, for homes, apartment buildings and hotels and resorts. In Cyprus, Panos surveys the property, writes the proposal, coordinates the works and stays responsible from the first visit to the final photos.
What we insulate
Thermal, waterproofing, acoustic where needed. Pick the one that matches your problem, or ask for a whole-home energy upgrade.
The flat concrete roof is where a Cyprus home loses the battle: it heats the rooms below all summer and lets heat out all winter. Insulation boards or spray polyurethane foam, with a new waterproofing layer on top, in one job.
Insulation boards fixed to the outside of the walls, meshed and rendered: the whole envelope wrapped, the bridges closed, the facade renewed at the same time. The single biggest step in an energy upgrade.
Seamless thermal insulation sprayed onto roofs, undersides of slabs, metal roofs, tanks and awkward geometry, where boards cannot follow the shape.
Hot-applied spray polyurea sets in seconds into a seamless, elastic, walkable membrane; liquid polyurethane membranes for roofs, terraces, balconies and planters. The right system for the surface and the use.
Pools that lose water through the shell, cracked or leaking tanks, and new pools that need a membrane before the finish. Polyurea and cementitious systems designed for permanent immersion.
Water coming through below ground: garages, storerooms, lift pits and the wall against the hillside. Membranes, injection and drainage, chosen after a survey, not from a catalogue.
Mineral wool or boards under tiled roofs and in loft spaces, and insulated suspended ceilings where the roof cannot be opened.
Insulation first, then the rest in the right order: windows and doors, shading, solar water heating, efficient cooling, photovoltaics with partners. One plan, one schedule, one person responsible, and the certificates the grant schemes ask for.
Why now
A bare concrete roof reaches surface temperatures far above the air temperature; the room below runs the air conditioning all afternoon. Insulating the roof is the cheapest cooling a top-floor home can buy.
Cyprus homes were built to release heat, not hold it. Almost one in six households cannot keep the home adequately warm, well above the EU average. Walls that stay cold also grow condensation mould.
The 2026 Save and Upgrade Homes scheme offered up to €32,000 per household for thermal insulation and other measures, and its €27.5 million was fully allocated within two days of opening. When a round opens, the applications with an Energy Performance Certificate and a written proposal ready go first.
An insulated, certified home rents and sells better to the buyers who now dominate Paphos: 68% of purchases in the district went to foreign buyers in 2025, and they ask for the energy certificate.
How it works
Panos visits, photographs the roof, walls, pool or basement, measures, and asks what the building does in summer and winter.
The system, the thicknesses, the sequence, the days, the guarantees, in writing. For energy upgrades, an Energy Performance Certificate by a qualified expert first.
Specialist crews on site, Panos coordinating, a photo update every working day. Large projects get a day-by-day plan for the residents or the hotel.
Before/after photos, the system data sheets, the guarantees, and the final certificate where one applies.

FAQ
Both. One terrace on an apartment block is a small job; a hotel roof or a whole complex is a large one. The same person surveys and writes the proposal in both cases.
In a top-floor apartment, the roof. In a house, usually the roof and then the walls, because the roof gives the biggest gain per euro in Cyprus sun. The survey and the Energy Performance Certificate put numbers on it.
Yes, and it should be: on a flat roof the insulation and the waterproofing are one system, applied in one job, with one guarantee.
Panos coordinates the Energy Performance Certificate with a qualified expert registered with the Energy Service and prepares the written proposal the application needs. The scheme's rules and dates are set by the Ministry of Energy; the 2026 round closed within two days of opening.
Yes, in writing: the system manufacturer's guarantee on the materials and a workmanship guarantee on the application. The years depend on the system and are stated in the proposal.
Yes. External wall insulation and roof works are done from outside, with a day-by-day plan shared with the residents or the committee, and a photo report after each stage.
Because every insulation job is sized from the survey: the area, the substrate, the system, the access. You get a written proposal with the full figure, nothing added later, after the visit.
