Summer construction ban

When should you renovate in Bodrum?

Heavy construction work is banned in Bodrum during the tourist season. According to local press, in 2026 the ban ran from 15 May to 15 October: no excavation, concrete pouring or heavy transport, while small renovations that don't disturb the surroundings are allowed. Sites that break the rules can be fined and sealed.

In practice, demolition, concrete and structural work should be planned for autumn and winter, and finishing and interior work for spring. If you want to use the house at the start of summer, start the conversation in autumn at the latest. The exact dates and scope are set by an official decision each year; we check the current situation before work starts.

This page gives general information. Check with the municipality and official announcements whether a permit is needed and what the current construction ban covers.

Do I need a permit to renovate?

It depends on the scope. Changes to the structure, the facade, the floor area or the use of the building can require alteration drawings and municipal approval, and buildings in protected areas may also need Conservation Board approval. Check the current permit and occupancy status before starting.

What matters most when renovating a stone house?

Use lime-based mortar instead of cement on stone walls, solve damp at its source, and add insulation and services without spoiling the original fabric. Listed buildings cannot be touched without board approval.

Who supervises the work?

The team that prepared the drawings also follows the work on site; material choices, builder coordination and the schedule are run from the same office.
