Why is increasing the budget for repairs

All things grows! Grass, taxes, repair costs.

And if the first two points I can not influence, then the last there are questions! These I want to discuss with you.

Keep a post and let's look for eaters of your money:
⠀
1. Window

The theme of those who bought an apartment in a new building! The windows of the developer can be mounted askew. Measured via vertical level.
⠀
What to do?

Reinstall, no options!

2. strainer

Check screed level or two-meter rule - clearance should not exceed 2 mm. Screed must not crumble, flake, there should be no voids or hillocks. If the screed is laid with a difference, it is possible to align. If there are voids in the screed or foliated - will have to redo.

3. Trash

For garbage collection need to pay, too - laid in the budget? Ask for volume builders (or think for themselves), and pricing please contact your management company (or look for options on the Internet).

What to do?

Budgeted in advance and to accept! Or invite friends as movers.

4. Communications

Most often, the replacement of risers subject sewerage, water pipes and heating. If you have an older home will most likely need to be changed if the previous owners did not care about it.

What to do?

Open plumbing box and look at the state of communications.

5. consumption

Subject to frequent manipulation on the part of builders. Speak right application rate and fix the price in the contract! If there was a cost overrun - the responsibility of the workers!

6. Lifting materials

Raise heavy materials - simple task in the presence of the freight elevator, and if it is not? Overhaul always requires a large number of roughing and finishing materials, cosmetics - much less.
⠀
What to do?

Learn in advance whether there are restrictions on the use of elevators for lifting goods. And if so, how much will have to pay. Or again ask for help from friends.

Think of it! Many people forget about such trifles as the grout for tiles, lamps, door and plumbing fittings and so on, and you do not forget! Consumables always seemed a trifle! Then unpleasant!

Have you had any "unforeseen" costs? Share? To account for all that is hidden!
