Stages of repair in a new building from scratch

The problem of how to begin repairs in a new building, arises in people who preferred buying a house directly from the developer, rather than in the secondary market.

The main reason for this approach is the cost of new apartments, which is significantly lower than the real estate offered in the secondary market.

In addition, fees for housing in a new building can be done in stages, before putting the facility into operation.

At the same time, it is better for many people to make their own repairs in a new building than to buy previously used housing together with the problems of the previous owners.

In addition, the construction of new homes occurs with the use of new technologies. Projects of the developer can not do without underground parking lots, spacious staircases and insulated facades.

Newly built apartments have a modern design layout, large plastic windows, bright rooms and, most importantly, a new high-quality wiring, thanks to which you can connect any home appliances.

The main disadvantage in this case is that the first financial contributions for the builder have been made, and it is not yet possible to live in the house, since even after putting the house into operation, the apartments remain unfinished.

As a result, you have to start repair work in a new building on your own, for your own money.

Buying an apartment in a new building, where major repairs have been carried out from the developer, also has its drawbacks, incidentally, the fee for them is quite high.

The design of an apartment in a new building from the developer leaves much to be desired, since cheap finishing materials are used in the repair, very often from the domestic manufacturer.

The walls of the kitchen and bathrooms are painted, or covered with inexpensive ceramics.

The floor of the rooms is laid simple linoleum, the walls are finished with paper wallpaper, and the ceiling is covered with water-based paint.

Such a design as in the photo, few will not be forced to do repairs again, in other words, buyers have to start everything from scratch.

Features of selection of building materials for new buildings

Repair of apartments in a new building without subsequent participation of the developer is difficult.

This fact is explained by the fact that the repair stages in the new building are significantly different from the repair work in the already lived apartment.

The main thing to remember about when choosing building materials and mortars is that the new building will eventually shrink.

As a result, the new finish of the floor can be swollen, cracks will appear on the walls and, most unpleasant, the water supply system may be deformed.

All these troubles can be avoided if you correctly approach the selection of the necessary building products to make repairs in the new building with their own hands.

In this case, it will be appropriate to use inexpensive materials in order that in 2-3 years everything could be cleaned without regret and, after having planned a new design of premises, to conduct a repeated overhaul.

But instead of cheap building products that are used by the developer to improve the design of the premises before putting it into operation, you can independently choose an analogue expensive, and with their help add to the interior of luxury.

For example, a floor covering should be better equipped using a parquet board with a natural shade.

Ceilings make the usual hanging or multi-level with backlighting using plasterboard.

Walls of living rooms to decorate with fabric wallpaper with coloring, pouring into the interior design of the space.

It all depends on the taste preferences of the owner of the new building and his wallet, in any case, it is better to repair the new building yourself, in order to be absolutely sure that the work is done qualitatively.

Perhaps, the design of apartments from the proposed photo ideas, will be able to evoke your creative potential.

After reviewing the photos and features of the preparatory works, you can go to the main question, namely, with what to begin the overhaul in the apartment of a new building.

How to begin the repair - step-by-step instruction

Step-by-step procedure of repair works in the apartment of a new building from the builder should start from scratch, but if any stage of work from the list was completed or was not planned, proceed to the next item:

• Start repair in a new buildingfollows with the installation of a temporary toilet, then the product is changed to a new one, during the installation of the bath and the sink;
• Installation of partitions. If the builders have not installed partitions in the apartment, then for their erection it is possible to use foam blocks or a brick with the subsequent finishing of plasterboard;
• Organization of the Strob. Using a perforator with a drill, whose diameter should match the width of the shtroba, in the concrete, grooves are made for the future cable, including the drill-strike mode;
• Then the drill is changed to a special peak, the "kick" function is turned on, the grooves are pierced. The result of the working process in the new building can be seen in the photo;
• Electrical wiring. Electric wires are planted throughout the apartment of new buildings, where the power supply will be constantly used. After that, the wiring is connected to the electrical board;
• Organize the distribution of plastic sewer pipes( bathroom, kitchen, toilet), followed by connection;
• To prevent the appearance of an unpleasant odor from the sewer, provided that the connection is made later, the edges of the pipes are fitted with plugs;

• Carry out plastering of walls and grouting on the floor rough surface;
• Go to the repair of slopes of windows and doors;
• The heating is connected. Priming the surface of pipes and batteries;

• Finish the walls and floor covering in the bathroom. Mount the bathroom and washbasin;
• In the remaining rooms the rough floor is equipped with thermal insulation, after which the screed is made;

This is the approximate order of work is necessary to carry out an independent overhaul of the apartment in a new building.

What is the result of the work done from scratch can be seen from the proposed photos.

Perhaps after a major overhaul in the apartment of a new house, the expenditure of funds from its own pocket decreased, if it were not for the law on compulsory contributions for house repairs.

Do I need to make contributions for capital repairs of new buildings?

In addition to public services, residents of apartment buildings, that is, apartment owners, are each month obliged to make contributions for the overhaul of the entire house.

In this case, the term overhaul includes the following:

• repair of the roof and load-bearing structures;
• restoration of facades of the object;
• repair of basement floors;
• foundation repair;
• restoration and repair of general communication networks;
• repair and installation of elevators.

Contributions should be made monthly, while the amount of funds is determined by the region of residence, from about 5 to 7 rubles per m2.

In turn, employees of the local self-government service are required to create a special capital repair fund for residents making contributions, managed by a regional operator.

In his duties will include the carrying out of repair work and the timely publication of information, via the Internet, on the condition of the renovated facilities.

This innovation can be considered an old law, which was forgotten. At the time of the Soviets, contributions for capital repairs were paid by citizens regularly( the funds were included in the communal payment).

Today in the housing and civil code there are notes on the responsibility that the owner bears for the maintenance of housing.

It turns out that by purchasing an apartment in a multi-storey building, a person simultaneously receives full rights to the living space and responsibilities for the maintenance of the house in which he lives.

This means that the roof, leaky in a multi-storey building, is its problem, but not of the authorities.

In fact, none of the aforementioned codes prohibits repair by owners, but at the same time, none of them speaks of a real mechanism for such actions.

This kind of mechanism proposed an innovation law, above all these are the mandatory contributions for capital repairs, which will be used to carry out planned repairs of the general housing stock.

But how to be the owners of apartments of new buildings, for which within five years there is a guarantee document from the developer. They are affected by this law, like everyone else.

In this case, it remains only to hope that the innovation, like any new law, requires an adjustment at the first stage of implementation.

Unfortunately, until the amendments are made, tenants expect a swaying of financial well-being. It would not be superfluous to point out the alternative possibilities that people who want to repair the house on their own could use it.

And yet, we can not do without organizational issues, since in addition to collecting contributions, we will have to look for a contractor.
