Balkan construction sector trends
Overview
The construction sectors in Serbia and Croatia show signs of growth and increased activity. In Čačak, Serbia, the residential building sector has experienced high demand for four consecutive years, leading to increased daily wages for workers despite a shortage of skilled craftsmen. Investors in the region continue to favor single-family homes.
In Croatia, the value of construction work performed by companies with five or more employees rose to 6.78 billion euros in 2025, a 10.5 percent increase from the previous year. This growth included a rise in both the number of workers and total hours worked. The majority of this value was attributed to building projects, while the remainder was spent on infrastructure, pipelines, and electrical lines.
