How to revive the "killed" the apartment and how much it will cost

Good afternoon dear friends!

My client Mary inherited odnushka: in a good area, but oldish. Masha wanted to take it, but first you need to put in normal form: apartment with a fresh renovation find tenants quickly, and the issue price will be different.

Masha came to me with the words: "There is work - the darkness, close my eyes and I am afraid of it all taken. Old wallpaper, tiles falling off, half the outlets did not work, the last time the furniture was changed about 30 years ago. In one word - fear. "

We discussed future repairs, that's what we have at the start:

● 44.6 square meter;

● old wallpaper and flooring killed;

● aluminum wiring, three points for a room (two-socket and light bulb in the center);

● dilapidated steel water pipes, rare cast iron sewer and cast iron radiators which we still survive;

● bathroom, though clean, but very "tired";

● windows - plastic, door - iron (relatively new).

enterprise budget is very limited. But there are two free units of assistance in the face of her husband and brother.

Where to start, what to do? Let's order.

1.Walls. The easiest and cheapest option - to paint the walls. But this process requires a flat surface and angles, which in the old apartment no.

We stopped on the wallpaper for painting. They are practical, varied in texture and easy to install. For the preparation of the walls will need a putty irregularities and apply the primer. Top - yourself wallpaper and two layers of acrylic paint.

Men assured Masha that will cope with it on their own, so that we're on the master save. And the materials cost about 15 thousand rubles.

2.Floor. To look more modern apartment, we decided to put an inexpensive laminate. The apartment is relatively flat floor (difference of not more than 2-3 mm), so this option is suitable.

too, it was decided to cope on their own with the floor, without a special master. On the laminate laid about 20 thousand rubles, plus another 3000 to the substrate, plinth and consumables.

3.Electrician. Posting old aluminum. Electrical appliances in the apartment are only at a time, any overload knocks out traffic jams. And the number of elektrotochek clearly does not meet modern requirements.

We decided to replace the wiring and add to the copper sockets. There is not enough without an electrician, a professional should be sought. Help your children to estimate the cost of materials and labor:

The total cost of the work on the electrics do not exceed the average for a studio apartment on the market (25 - 30 thousand rubles). Especially, in the price included installation of spotlights.

4.Sewerage and water supply. water pipes - patch to the patch, the pressure is very weak. We decided to replace the old water supply system for plastic pipes and sewage system - PVC pipes. And put the acrylic bath and washing machine.

To repair is not turned into a disaster and its results pleased as long as possible, the problem of water supply to professionals. At work on pipe replacement will take about 20 thousand, with a new tile in the bathroom and an apron in the kitchen - 23 thousand, and the bath itself, together with the installation of pull another 15 - 16 thousand rubles.

5.Ceiling. Joints ceilings in such a state that a simple painting of the issue is not resolved. In addition, places have gone cracks. Plasterboard ceiling is not considered: in the flat curves of the walls, and to align their budget does not allow. We decide to install suspended ceiling.

also need a special master for the job. Setting the blade of an average price category will cost 23,500 rubles, already including the materials and work.

Thus, the projected cost of repairs made 150 thousand rubles:

All agreed that it was not such a big fee for the "resuscitation" killed apartments. In my experience, the amount would have been 30-40% higher if the guys did not take part in the work itself.

As a general rule, 150 thousand costs purely cosmetic repairs odnushki, and we were able to lay in the same budget of important capital projects with the involvement of experts.
