Reshaping the apartment: how to do everything quickly and in accordance with the law?

The redevelopment of the apartment is aa complex of construction, installation, finishing works, resulting in a change in the area of ​​individual rooms, the construction of load-bearing walls, the system of engineering and plumbing equipment. In other words, if you want to connect a loggia with a room or to convert a bathroom, you are waited by nothing but re-planning. The process is long and costly, both in terms of finances, and in terms of nerves. But at the end of all the works you will receive an apartment that corresponds to your individual vision, tastes and preferences.

What works are included in the concept of "redevelopment"?

Any project organization knows exactly the answer to this question. So, the redevelopment is called:

• change in the design of bearing walls;
• dismantling and moving partitions inside the apartment;
• transfer of existing and construction of new doorways;
• pool of a loggia with a room;
• объединение ванной комнаты и туалета в единый a bathroom and vice versa, as well as changing its area, changing the sanitary equipment, installing new elements (a storage water heater, an additional washbasin, a toilet, a shower cabin instead of a bath, etc.);
• combining kitchen and living room;
• increase in living space due to household spaces (storage room, wardrobes, etc.);
• transfer of risers and radiators, arrangement of water-heated floors.

It is very important that all work be carried out ondue level, with observance of construction norms, and also correctly issued. That is, it is necessary to work out the order in detail, as well as legitimize the redevelopment.

Unfortunately, very often the owners do it.independently, at your own peril and risk, and legal registration is performed retroactively, when it comes time to sell housing, donate, privatize, insure, etc. This approach is fundamentally wrong and entails at least litigation in order to legitimize unauthorized redevelopment. As a maximum - a danger to the residents and neighbors themselves, if the apartment was redeveloped with violations of the building regulations. In the worst case, the owner faces not just a penalty for unauthorized restructuring, but also a “rollback” of all changes, that is, the restoration of the demolished supporting structures, the dismantling of improperly installed radiators, etc.

How to make everything right?

Project organization - that's where you need to go as soon as youdecided to do redevelopment. Experts will tell you how to properly implement your ideas, conduct a survey of the apartment and give a technical conclusion about the possibility / impossibility of certain changes. As a result, you will get your hands on a redevelopment project, which will be one of the most important documents to be submitted to the city authorities in order to legitimize the restructuring.

In addition to the project before the start of repair should prepare the following documents:

• apartment passport;
• proof of ownership;
• an extract from the house book, where all persons registered in the given living space will be listed;
• permission to conduct redevelopment from all persons indicated above;
• copy of the personal account;
• the conclusion of the SES and the Ministry of Emergency Situations on the compliance of housing with current standards.

This package is filed with the application inhousing inspection. After consideration of your case, a decision will be made on the permission / prohibition of work. If the answer is positive, you can safely begin the repair.

When the redevelopment of the apartment is completed,it is necessary to call the workers of the housing inspection to draw up an act on the performance of work. He, along with the previously received permission for redevelopment, project and passport of the homeowner is transferred to the BTI for registration of a new technical passport. Next, you will have to visit the Cadastral Chamber so that the changes will be reflected in the cadastral registration. And if during the repair not only the layout, but also the area of ​​the apartment has changed, a new certificate of ownership will also be required (issued in the FRS). Only after that you can assume that the redevelopment is fully legalized.
