Is it profitable to build with their own hands: what actually save and not to miscalculate

How profitable to build their own - estimates and actual experience

Construction of private - home quite difficult and important process that requires thoughtful consideration and careful preparation. After determining the budget, the fundamental questions, ideally arise at the planning stage, it is a way to convert a hypothetical project in the house, ready to move in. That is - who will be the executor of all "hotelok" or at least the basic minimum required for a comfortable life. By and large versions of all three - an order with the company's construction of "turnkey", the involvement of hired force at different stages or self-construction. For most users, the portal is overdue partially or fully self-construction. And why, and whether it is really the best choice, we try to understand this material, taking advantage of the experience samostroyschikov.

Self-construction - the arguments "for" and "against"

If there is the possibility to order the construction of "turnkey" for the professionals and saves valuable without quotes time, and no less valuable nerves - the pros are able to build quickly and efficiently, and do not need a total of two the control. But not everyone can afford to see a well-known, proven company that for its appropriate level of money to build a house of good quality. Involvement of hired workers is much cheaper, but in this case there is to be a "Russian roulette". There are responsible, reliable performer who can be entrusted with the construction of their home, but also have mass and others mercenaries that knowledge technologies and, often, common sense replaces already become legendary promise - "everyone is doing it, and nothing".

represent – that build illiterate builders led by illiterate foreman parsed in the construction of the customer? I've seen a lot of these buildings and the sad eyes of the people, kupivshihsya to "low" in comparison with the firms valuation. And in the construction business, many simply can not afford - people see sky-high prices and put an end to the construction.

In most cases, in preparation for the construction of a solution to manage their own to the maximum dictated by the budget. And significant savings.

Igor Antipov

The cost of construction materials sometimes constitute less than half of the costs. Price of the house is quite possible to reduce by 30-40%, and sometimes more. Build yourself, the whole family - a house built with his own hands, it is not just a building, it's a family member.

Another argument in favor of building on their own - as a confidence.

Then there is another factor - I know that for myself, I will do a much neater than any migrant worker or an employee of a decent office.

How are the two sides of the coin, and in self-construction there are opponents, is also quite clearly justify its position. Two main arguments - everyone should mind his own business, and as long as you spend time in the building, missing the opportunity to earn more. About the level of training of artists already mentioned, not all are lucky to have a bona fide mercenaries. With regard to earnings, the economy - also profit, but the main activity is quite possible to combine. And to make money, save money, it can be a very large sum, which at the construction site will never be superfluous, especially when it is not to the detriment of quality.

Saving involves a lot of physical and emotional costs, but it does not mean that necessarily get worse. At the planning stage at home I have calculated the foundation of my idea. Bypassing this calculation several city offices, I did not find the amount for the implementation of less than 400 thousand rubles. As a result, I decided to do everything himself, spent two months - worked in his spare time. material costs amounted to 90 thousand, plus ten more on technique and small things. As a result, tired, but happy and with savings of 300 thousand, and saved - still he earned. Salary as I have a lot less than 150 thousand per month. To economize, when there is a desire and time.

How to build your own

Although there are examples of spontaneous and quite successful construction, it is still the exception rather than rule, and then, when the house is as simple as possible, both in terms of technology and materials, and in terms of constructive. In the main the same weight without deliberate design, careful budget planning and detailed estimates in the result may be either unfinished - when many want with modest capabilities, or "patch" with a claim on capital structure that does not pass on any regulations.

Even on the basis of a sketch drawn on paper with the size and layout you can calculate an estimate of spending a couple of days on the building materials market monitoring. The project is independently crafted in a graphics editor, will give as close as possible to the reality of the balance of the kit.

In addition, the network a large number of construction calculators, with which you can also calculate all consumables in stages, starting with the foundation. Since these counters operate on the basis of existing building codes and regulations (SNIP), it is also known to help avoid erroneous design decisions taken by the desire to save money. Time is spent learning theory and design / calculations will be compensated by a smaller number of problems that have arisen directly on site. Another important point - logistics.

Building on their own - it's not just the design and the knowledge that, when and how to do it yet and logistics. Almost the entire board bought at a time and to deliver on the floors and the veranda of the main planks made formwork and then frame. Raskhodku membranes brought himself, slab and roofing materials - a second car, a heater - the third, plus something drove on the packaging itself to left. fourth machine– drywall; fifth- window. Also, the plumbing may be combined with surfacing materials and the like.

An equally important factor in determining the appropriateness of self-construction, is building scale - the more quadrature, so it is more difficult in all respects. The portal has been repeatedly raised the topic of choice compromised area of ​​the house, to live and be comfortable, and include / not too clean napryazhno and himself for several seasons, not for half a lifetime to master really. A compromise was found in an area of ​​about 100 m², which is not only possible to live comfortably, but also feasible to build in several stages.

This year, he planned to do a simple little house, 110-120 m², self-confidence and the desire to eat. Of course, heavy physical work, the simplest of actions, and where one does not manage - I will hire. If you find a sensible and responsible children - charge more, but he plans to control their work on the spot. Building plan as to prepare for the season place to stay - a warm room on the ground floor, 6 × 6 m, and attic and workshop could finish already on the go, in your spare time, or even to postpone for a further year if suddenly tired.

Wherein Evgeny. R It recognizes that a more complex in terms of constructive house 250-300 m² have been built with the involvement of the company and myself would have left only finish - "otherwise there will be no life, and solid construction is not in joy". However, it is worth noting that the finish is often more costly box, and if it is also about self-performance communications and utilities, the savings are even greater.

Of course, building a house and a much smaller area, and live in them quite comfortably, as carefully think through the plan and purpose of each meter. But to drive himself and his family in a small apartment, only on the ground - is meaningless. Repeatedly confirmed by calculations and real-world experience, the difference between the costs of constructing the house 50 m² and 80 m² in total costs is not critical.

With regard to the presence or lack of experience - the portal bulk constructions it serves as proof that the actual overpower any problem if desired.

The topics - hundreds of examples of the successful construction of houses on different technologies, different materials and different form factor c, but quite far from the profession builder people who are united by the desire to live in his house, and the "Handbook" was FORUMHOUSE. One of the most striking examples - "As office plankton crooked hands built the house with a minimal budget".

My name is Alexander, and thanks to this site I built a house. Now I Plasterer walls, choose wallpaper and plan to enter. But three years ago, I even hammer in his hands did not hold, I could hardly fasten the socket, and the word "filler" to drive me to the horror.

Everything is real, and the road, even a thousand kilometers begins with a single step, the main thing - to decide. With the rest of the problems as they come to help responsive forum users and moderators consultants.

Calculations and estimates

Ten years ago Igor Antipov, professionally engaged in construction, has opened a theme "How to build a low-cost high-quality home"Which is still relevant today.

Naturally, the technology, as well as pricing, since changed, but at the cost ratio Materials / work as it was, on average, in the range of 60/40% (in the whole volume), and substantially the left.

High quality and very cheap will not work. I built the house this summer power of wage-workers, 7 to 9 m, with two floors, aerated concrete. Built, finished with only the ground floor for four months, it left 3.5 million. Purchase of materials only deal with ourselves, we live in the house already. The work has cost about 1.3 million.

But the version of the stone box, even if not living, but only at the initial stage, but it looks like squaring and provided self-build.

Prices of materials, summer 2017 He built the house himself, 8x8 meters, on strip foundations, from lightweight aggregate concrete blocks. Metal roofing. With windows and siding on the attic gable.

• 25h150h6000 boards on the formwork, the second grade 1 m³ - 7500 p.
• Concrete mixer M300 m³ 9, 3300 p. and 3500 p. Shipping - 33200 p.
• Fiberglass reinforcement beam 3 at 50 m and 10 mm section of one beam 50 m diameter of 8 mm - 4400 p.
• Blocks of lightweight aggregate 20h20h40 mm (hollow 14,5 kg / pcs.) 1130 pcs. 33 p. and the delivery of 100 km manipulator 3500 p. - 40700 p.
• Sand (a mortar) 9 m - 3500 p.
• Two rolls of tar paper - 560 p.
• Cement M400 50 kg, 14-15 pcs. 260 p. - 4000 p.
• Mason's net 80 pcs. 2 to 30 p m. - 2400 p.
• Corner 25h6 m. (Jumpers in window openings) 3 units. - 1350 p.
• Roof boards (rafters) 200h50h6000 mm Class II, 2 m³ 8500 p. per m³ - 17000 p.
• Lathing boards 25h150h6000 mm, 1 m³ (cubic plus still used formwork boards) - 7500 p.
• Metal "Monterrey", 16 sheets of 6 m, with the delivery - 28000 p.
• Plastic windows 9 pcs. 750h1200 mm (without slopes, window sills and so on.) 3300 pcs. - 29700 p.
• Vinyl siding on the second floor with the Buy-taking, as many undercuts, 35 sheets of 140 p. - 4900 p.

The result - so far spent 170 thousand, not counting the small expenditure for nails, screws and the like.

Of course, to live in such a form factor more unreal, is just the first phase of construction, but even if the value of the box take 30% of the value of the house "turnkey", as a finished product, it will cost up to half a million, with an area of ​​about 100 m². Not even running a few steps forward so, simply calculate savings for at least one zone. If we consider that in the metal gable roof lies virtually no scrap, get a roof area of ​​approximately 100 m², the value of works excluding material from private owners / teams start from 1000 rubles per m² and 2,000 rubles per sqm for companies - plus another 100 thousand. And although the roof in the box takes the lion's share of the cost savings due to the self-fulfillment of more than respectable.

For adherents of energy-efficient housing will be interesting modern design of Igor, on the basis of one of the Swedish houses, a calculated enlargement, but carefully.

Igor Antipov

In my opinion, the project is worthy of attention, and it will be able to repeat those on a tight budget, but want to live in a modern, comfortable, energy efficient home. Above calculations I worked three days - in the project can be found inaccuracies and even may have errors. It is, rather, a preliminary outline, rather than a full-fledged project, but it takes into account almost all sections. After the provisional budget I can confirm what the hope at the beginning of the work - over 3 million. Brigade forces operating, it is realistic to build a good, high-quality, beautiful home.

Form Factor:

• Actual size - 135 m².
• Water - well (caisson of concrete rings subsurface pump, the accumulator in the boiler, brass fittings, HDPE pipe).
• Sewerage system - two-chamber septic tank of concrete rings.
• Fundam - tape, on the ground floor (insulated w / w cap 600 × 250 mm).
• Heating - Radiant Floor Heating by electric boilers.
• Ventilation - forced with heat recovery.
• Walls - double frame (OSB ecowool, inside GCR).
• Partition walls - frame (GCR insulation).
• Flooring - laminate 33 classes (except the boiler room and toilets), plinths, transoms.
• Bathrooms - tiles, granite tiles, sinks with tables, compacts, showers.
• Boiler - electric boiler, tiled floor, painted walls.
• Ceilings - Stretch with built-in lighting fixtures.
• Windows - a profile, double-glass, no roof.
• Electrical - installation of lead-in cable, the RCD, machines, sockets (two points in the room), switches (all good quality).
• Thermal insulation of the ceiling - ecowool 500 mm.
• Truss system - farm on the minimum wage.
• Roof - metal, water drainage system.
• Facade - a combination of timber imitation, decorative plaster and natural wood.

Igor Antipov

In conclusion, the total cost of materials - without the cost of operation and enlargement:

• Water - 164000 p.
• Sewerage - 44000 p.
• Foundation - 413000 p.
• Walls, partitions, doors, windows, interior trim - 640000 p.
• Electrician - 57000 p.
• Roof - 182000 p.
• Insulation of walls and ceiling - 183 000 rub.
• Facade - 171000 p.
• Ventilation - 20000 p.

Total: 1874000 rub. I believe that for 1126000 rubles, the remaining three million actually find workers who are ready to implement the project quality.

Given that Igor is not a theorist and practitioner, and counted construction on its own rates, it is unlikely he could shortchange critical. When you contact the company to estimate grows twice.

The concept of "low-cost" all their own and largely depends on personal preference, but at current prices per 1 m² finished house the proposed project fully falls under the category as a low-cost and high-quality country housing. Especially, it is possible to reduce and even estimate if desired.

Igor Antipov

Inexpensive - up to 3 million "turnkey" or 1.8 million - in the construction of their own, and quality. Hopefully, no one will argue that oversized insulation reduces the quality? Besides, who is, and more (high base, the heat exchanger, the Finnish doors, well, quality sanitary ware, equipment and expensive windows) it is not necessary - you can not do. Use the materials easier, and will be much cheaper.

Earlier portal already considered options to reduce the cost of construction due to different articles, but what agrees and pros and samostroyschiki - in any case, can not be over-saving on materials.

As for the construction of the house fully on its own or with occasional involvement of workers - a real opportunity to significantly reduce costs, and the bonus is confidence in the quality constructed.

Output

Even without being a professional builder, today really understand all the nuances, both independently and through more experienced comrades and the masses tools (editors, calculators, video tutorials, courses, conducted by major manufacturers building materials). The main thing - the desire and belief in success, but about rolling stone gathers no we invented.

Within reason, you can save on building materials - if you know how, And project. Accessible and understandable in terms of simplicity of execution, but labor-intensive technology - building homes of improvised concrete block casting method. In the video - useful for samostroyschikov an example of laying the first row gazoblokov.
