If a private house is not suitable for living or you just want to modify it to a large extent, then the best way out of this situation is reconstruction. Please note that some types of repair work will need to be officially confirmed by obtaining special permits from certain authorities.
What is the reconstruction of a private house
It is very important to understand that reconstruction, redevelopment and major repairs are completely different processes. Overhaul is the replacement of aged materials used in the construction of a house with new ones. In a broad sense, overhaul is a complex of construction and installation work, the purpose of which is to improve living conditions and the technical characteristics of a house. Redevelopment is the so-called change in the configurations of the house. The most common actions in this case are the transfer of walls, doorways, window frames, or various manipulations with them, for example, expansion or contraction.
If you have received a refusal from state authorities to carry out the reconstruction of a private house, then you can appeal it or submit a new document with a different plan for building changes.
Reconstruction is an almost complete change in the parameters of a private house and its technical characteristics. In this case, such actions are carried out as the addition of new floors, the construction of extensions to the main block, the addition of new engineering systems and communications. The main point is that the supporting structures should not be completely replaced, they should only be repaired. The main distinguishing features of the reconstruction are considered to be the addition of new premises, while maintaining the foundations of the previous construction of the house.
Documents for reconstruction
Reconstruction of a private house is a complex type of work, for which you will have to obtain a special permit. For this, a corresponding application is written to the regional self-government bodies. You will need to attach a plan of the new building after the reconstruction to the main document. Such applications are considered, as a rule, within a month.
If you demolish a wall and then rebuild it in a new location, this is a redevelopment. If you attach a summer kitchen or veranda to a private house, then this process is considered a reconstruction.
The procedure for obtaining authorization for reconstruction is governed by the norms of the Urban Planning Code of the Russian Federation. Mandatory documents submitted to self-government bodies include notarized copies of documents confirming ownership of a private house and land plot, permission from the administration of the district to which the building is located, project documentation, a certificate from the BTI, as well as a topographic plan … In addition, you will need to collect additional references and permits. For more information, please contact your local administration or city government.
