Checked by the man who can fix it.

A home that stands closed from October to Easter in Paphos grows mould on the north wall, stale water in the tank and a leak nobody notices. Key-holding companies will look and write to you. Panos looks, fixes the small things on the spot, and sends you the photos the same day.

  • One visit a month, date agreed, photo report the same day
  • Small fixes done during the visit
  • Keys never tagged, never copied

Sounds familiar?

The reasons owners abroad message Panos.

Most of his clients are in the UK, Israel, Germany or Russia for part of the year. Many have never met him.

  • You arrive in April to a musty smell and black spots in the bedroom.
  • The neighbour who 'kept an eye' on the house has moved back to the UK.
  • Your insurer asks whether the home is checked while it is empty.
  • A tap was left dripping for five months. The water bill arrived first.
  • You want one number to call, not a management company and then a tradesman.

The plan

The monthly visit

No contract. Cancel with a message. Invoiced, with a yearly summary for your records.

Start with one visit

What happens on every visit

  • Run every tap and shower, flush the toilets, check under sinks and behind the WC for leaks
  • Check walls, ceilings and corners for damp and mould, and the terrace and roof after rain
  • Open the shutters and air every room for the length of the visit; close and lock up
  • Test doors, locks, shutters and the water heater; check the electricity board
  • Clear the terrace and balcony drains, collect the post, look for pests
  • Photo report on WhatsApp the same day, with anything that needs attention marked
  • Small fixes done on the spot at the agreed rate: a washer, a seal, a hinge, a shutter

€85 per monthThe total on the written quote is the total you pay. Nothing is added at the end.

On request

And when something comes up.

Pre-arrival visit

Water heater on, shutters open, fridge running, a quick check the day before you land. €60.

After a storm

Roof, terrace, windows and drains checked and photographed within two days. €60.

Key-holder for other trades

Panos lets in the electrician, the AC engineer or the cleaner you booked, and sends you a photo when they leave.

Winter ventilation plan

For homes closed November to March: a dehumidifier set up and emptied on each visit, so you do not come back to mould.

The fix-it list

Everything that needs doing before you arrive, at the half-day or full-day rate, with photos.

Why Panos

Why a tradesman, not a management company

  1. He fixes what he finds

    A washer, a seal, a hinge, a blocked drain: done during the visit, not reported for someone else to quote next month.

  2. He knows what to look for

    A tradesman sees the hairline crack on the terrace that becomes the ceiling stain in January. A photo of it in October is worth a renovation in spring.

  3. One person, one number

    The same man every month. Your neighbours get to know his car. When something bigger comes up, you already trust the person quoting it.

  4. Honest about the big things

    When a roof needs sealing or a wall needs treating, you get a written quote with photos and the reasons. No work starts without your written yes.

FAQ

Questions owners abroad ask.

How much does property checking cost in Paphos?

Key-holding companies in Paphos charge about €75 a month for one visit and a report. Panos charges €85, and the difference is that he can fix what he finds during the visit, at the agreed rate.

Is there a contract?

No. Month by month, cancel with a message. Most clients stay for years.

What happens if you find something serious?

You get photos and a written quote the same day. For an active leak Panos stops the water first, then asks. Nothing else starts without your written yes.

Do you hold keys?

Yes. Keys are kept without any address on them and are never copied. If you prefer, a key safe at the property works too.

Can you let other tradesmen in?

Yes. Panos opens, waits or returns to lock up, and sends you a photo when they are done.

Does my insurance require checks?

Many policies limit cover when a home is left empty beyond 30 or 60 days. Check your policy; the monthly photo report gives you a dated record of every visit.

What about cleaning, pool and garden?

Panos does repairs and checks. For cleaning, pool and garden he can recommend people he works alongside, and he can let them in.

Start with one visit.

Send the address and when you were last there. Panos visits, sends the photo report, and you decide about the monthly plan after you have seen it.
