Do not start the repair in a new once - expert tells why
Becoming, finally, the happy owners of their apartments in a new building, many in a hurry to begin repairs. This desire is understandable - all quickly want to make a beautiful and comfortable to enter the housing.
But if you do not want will soon regret spent on repair tools and redo it all over again - not in a hurry with the new building repairs.
Why - explains one of our experts - the master of finishing works Nikolai Eremenko.
If the apartment is in the draft you got what is called "fresh from the oven", that is - almost immediately after putting the house, wait for one heating season.
The fact is that when otelochnyh works on the walls will fall moisture (adhesive plaster, grout, etc.). Some materials also contain small amounts of moisture. Even in the cold season and humid home plate to absorb a portion of, especially if they are concrete.
When include heating, evaporation of moisture is intense. Any material in which there is even a small percentage of moisture will begin to lose volume (shrink).
In such situations, it is in the winter with a good heating happy tenants are beginning to deal with the first problem - plaster cracks, wallpaper waste wall "leads". All repairs down the drain.
If a new building is also heated difficulties - here and all you can face serious cracks on the walls. They are formed due to sudden temperature changes.
Unfortunately, I know of many cases where owners hurry to repair and repel advice. I can not wait to settle them.
But then very sorry that once made expensive repairs.
Yes, there are times when there is no place to live simply and urgently need to move. I can recommend in such a situation to make a budget repair for 1-2 years, and only when the house is "settled down", start to finish costly. It is advisable to go through at least one winter to see the behavior of the new building.
If there is a time and an opportunity not to enter immediately into the apartment, the rough work can begin immediately.
At the end of the heating season, you will be able to check the tightness of the joints, the presence of freezing and adjust them at the stage of rough repair.
We hope the information was useful to you.
