Reconstruction of an older house: What to include in the budget?

Reconstruction of an older house: What to include in the budget?

Na co myslet, než se pustíte do malování a tapetování?

What do people underestimate the most?I find that the reconstruction is significantly cheaper than the new building, because the house will only be repaired.But that's not the case.That's why they often plan much more than they have money.And when they move in, they underestimate regular maintenance.The house is a commitment.It's not that you reconstruct it and you won't have to touch it for another 30 years.

What technical problems do you encounter most often? A problem that every other older house has is rainwater.They are not taken away from the house, but they flow under the foundations and rose across the walls.The house is damaged in three ways.The wet masonry is falling apart, molds are formed inside the house and after years of leakage, the foundations begin to decline in some places and crack the house.At the same time, the solution is relatively easy - to remove rainwater further away from the house.Furthermore, it is a poor orientation to the cardinal points, the location of the house on the land or complicated installation in the field.

What missing project documentation? Each house owner is obliged to have current project documentation, which is not really observed.But most owners have at least the original and the rest will be measured before the reconstruction.

What should we focus on during a technical survey of an older building? Depends on whether you are just buying a house or already have it and you are preparing a reconstruction. More attention should be paid to the house when purchasing. The moment you already have it, you have to accept all the problems. I have already mentioned orientation to the cardinal points and the location of the house on the plot. It is ideal to have a street on the northern side of the house, a garden on the south side and windows of living rooms to the garden. Reconstruction can complicate buildings on adjacent land, such as a neighbor's garage. It is difficult to insulate such a side or dehumidifies the wall. It is important to pay attention to moisture and static disorders from the truly technical parameters of the house. Also important are the disposition and consideration of how much you need to change them, so that there is something left of the original building. It cannot be said that there was a completely bad house. Rather, it depends on the combination of the possibilities and requirements of the owner and condition. Reconstructions that touch historical buildings are very problematic. Houses that have heritage protection must have permission from conservationists who can order what procedures, materials and components are allowed to use during reconstruction. If you do not comply with these requirements, you do not have to get a building approval and you can get a change to its original state or fine.

What problems occur in houses built after 1989?That is why the houses built after the revolution are not too much refurbished, it will come in some five to ten years.Problems I suppose in such houses are based on a relaxed period after the fall of communism.A lot of untested building materials came to us, with which the builders still did not have much experience and which do not have to have a long life.These "nineties" houses also suffer from megalomaniacal dispositions and were a tendency towards great ruggedness, whether floor plans, facades or roofs.

The nut is also a proper estimate of the cost.How to find out the price and what to include in the budget? For the very first estimate, the price standards in the construction industry will be perfect, where you can read the price for 1 m³ of enclosed space of the family house.They are available freely on the Internet.They report the price of a new building without VAT, which you reduce a little, which is already a matter of feeling, and you will find the approximate price of the reconstruction.Accurate calculations have their risks.They need detailed information about the scope of work, but you know them only when you have a project.You need an estimate much earlier.

Is it a good idea to address an architect in finding a new look of the house, or is it enough to use the designer?Rather, it is called younger people who establish a family.In this case, the architect usually creates a study and the designer prepares a project.However, in terms of minor modifications, such as shifting several inner walls or roof replacement, it is rather a technical problem that the designer solves.

How to get to know a reliable construction company?If the company does not respond to e-mails or does not take phones at the beginning, during the construction it will be worse.The same applies to contracts and any documents.When they are confusing and there are unclear points, it is not a good mark for further cooperation.

Proceedings at the building authority of the builder are waiting for the way to the building authority. What proceedings exist and how are they going? By superstructure, then the Building Act requires you to report. For a family house you are building or set, you will need common consent from the building authority, that is merged and territorial consent, the difference is in another request and more attachments. Neighbors, then you will apply for a joint permit. Or announcement, this is a garage with a built -up area larger than 25 m², you will request a notification of the building removal. You can submit it to the building authority by all annexes. When the reconstruction interferes with the load -bearing walls or panels when changing the layout. At this point, it is necessary to apply for a building permit that the building authority does not issue without assessing the structural engineer. The permit shall be issued on the basis of a written request to which the statics report, project documentation and neighbors are attached. Another option may be an authorized inspector's certificate. In it, he / she will professionally assess the project, perform a shortened construction procedure and issue a certificate. The owner then submits the building authority and its weight is the same as for the building permit.

Plan the preparatory work procedure

The investor does not directly address the links of construction work, which is in charge of the construction company.But according to Martin Perlík, however, he must be involved in preparing the project and finding the necessary permits.

Ing.Martin Perlíkzdroj: The archive is an authorized building engineer who has long been specializing in the reconstruction of old houses and apartments, assesses their technical condition, proposes new use and prepares projects.He is the author of successful publications, such as the reconstruction of a family house that was published by Grada.He regularly writes about the issue of a blog reconstruction.
