"Working with Athens Construction has been a pleasure. They are reliable, accommodating, fair and responsive. They work well with homeowners, architects and designers alike to produce a high quality beautiful product without letting costs spiral out of control. You will not feel forgotten once your project is complete and if any additional work is desired, you will not hesitate to use them again."

“When we bought our home from Athens Construction in 2013, we were impressed with your team from the start. We could tell Athens is a quality builder that stands behind your work. The level of detail that your team put into our home differentiates it from others in the city.
Now as we prepare to leave our beloved city home for the suburbs, we are sad to say goodbye to our Athens home. When we listed our place, every buyer that walked through commented on the craftsmanship and quality of finishes. When we begin to remodel our new (but very old) suburbs home we will be calling your team.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us for seven years. We have fond memories of this place and your team, and we look forward to crossing paths again in the near future!”

"I loved working with Athens and plan to do so for all of our schools if possible. Everyone was so professional and caring about what we were doing. Our school came out beautifully and everyone who comes in always says it feels good."

One River School Of Art + Design, Evanston"Athens Construction is built on a foundation of integrity, competence, and anticipation of its clients needs. This foundation and culture starts with its founder and leader, Dimitri Kourkouvis and is apparent with every associate who works at Athens Construction.
I have worked with the Athens Team on many projects and inevitably, despite an architect’s best effort there are things that aren’t well defined in construction blue prints. The Athens team readily identifies such things and addresses them with minimal disruption and cost to me. I wouldn’t use another contractor!"
Bob Navarre
"I have worked with contractors on commercial properties, residences and general offices throughout the country. My experience with Jim and the Athens team has proven to be one of the most professional and pleasant.
When we look back on the beginning, middle, and end of this project, I am gratified by the handling of all aspects of the process. The craftsmanship, creativity, and collaborative spirit of all parties involved were of the highest caliber.
Annie and I love our beautiful new home and commend you and the Athens crew."
Jimmy de Castro
“We were extremely pleased with Athens Construction and all of the individuals from Athens who were associated with our project. Dimitri maintained an open channel of communication to make sure that all of us were aware of where the project was and where it was going. Peter was an excellent and attentive supervisor. His leadership skills kept the work moving, and he was sure to check in with us on a regular basis. He was available every time that we needed to meet with him.
Juan kept the day-to-day work moving efficiently and the site as organized / clean as possible. The most important criterion for us was integrity, and every person with whom we had contact exhibited integrity. Thank you for the excellent workmanship as well as the impressive work relationship. We will definitely use Athens in the future.”
