For every owner of residential property, there comes a time when it is necessary to make repairs. Such actions provide an opportunity to refresh the visual appearance of the apartment and improve living conditions in it. At the same time, there are several types of repair work, each of which has its own characteristics. That is why it is extremely important to at least superficially understand their varieties and optimally approach the process of organization, selection of materials, etc.

Apartment renovation: main types and their features

Before starting the repair, it is necessary to first determine the specifics of each type of work, prepare building materials and draw up an implementation plan. The sequence of actions will depend on certain factors, including the area of ​​the territory, the condition of the object and the type of repair. In this case, it is allowed to carry out work throughout the apartment and separately repair a room or kitchen. Experts name three main types of repair work:

  • Major

It consists in the complete reconstruction of the premises - redevelopment, replacement of communications, installation of new windows and doors, etc. This process belongs to the costly segment, providing for the mandatory implementation of some stages. Most often, they consist in dismantling electrical networks, internal structures, removing floor and wall coverings. This also includes the so-called rough finishing, which consists in leveling the walls, laying new wiring. The final stage of major repairs is finishing.

  • Cosmetic

This type consists of a set of works related to the replacement of room decoration and some options for major repairs. For example, when removing wall coverings, the surface may need to be leveled. The same applies to flooring, because rough finishing helps to get a more effective result. At the same time, cosmetic repairs require less time and finances.

  • European renovation

This type is the most expensive in terms of cost, as it requires the contractor to have extensive experience and knowledge of modern technologies. In addition, expensive materials are used in European renovations, and each individual project requires a special approach from the designer. All processes are carried out in accordance with the requirements of European repair standards.

Specifics of major and current repairs of apartments in Kyiv

Most often, construction companies receive requests from customers to carry out major or current repairs. That is why the features of these types are given more attention.

When performing turnkey major repairs, the following algorithm of actions is most often used:

  • Creating the interior design of the project.
  • Developing redevelopment if necessary.
  • Dismantling the old coating and removing construction debris.
  • Carrying out rough work.
  • Installation work on installing windows and doors.
  • Laying engineering communications.
  • Installation of lighting equipment, sockets and switches.
  • Finishing work.
  • Ceiling installation.
  • Furnishing.
  • Preparing the object for delivery to the customer.

Major repairs in new buildings are mainly carried out when developers hand over apartments without finishing. Often, this type of repair is also ordered for old housing stock - if necessary, planning Khrushchev or Stalinist houses.

As for the current repair, it is the so-called golden mean between capital and cosmetic. During its implementation, a more careful attitude to communications is noted. Most often, current, for example, bathroom repairs, are carried out when the engineering networks are still working well, but there is partial wear. The main advantage of current repairs is the absence of the need to do capital repairs in the future for a long time.

What does the price of apartment renovation depend on?

When assessing repair work, attention is primarily paid to the area of ​​the apartment. Other factors that have a direct impact on repair prices include:

  • the cost of materials - it varies significantly, since branded products will cost more than materials from the budget segment;
  • the work of specialists - the price of apartment repairs also varies depending on the qualifications and experience of the team's craftsmen;
  • the need for additional services from craftsmen and their complexity;
  • complex architectural solutions, the need for wall insulation, window replacement and other features of repairs without intermediaries;
  • the urgency of the work - repairs with materials in a short time will cost much more.

The location and logistics are no less important. For example, the cost of repairing apartments in the center of Kyiv may be higher due to high rent for contractors. In turn, the delivery of materials to remote areas of the city can also increase the cost of transportation costs to some extent.
