The old statement, "My home - my castle" Unfortunately, today is not an axiom. Even in the native land residents of apartment buildings are not protected from many problems of diverse origin. Some blame the irresponsible neighbors and negligent management companies. Others, because of ignorance or the belief in the great Russian "maybe", we are creating for themselves. Let's try to figure out how to make your life as a quiet and protected from all kinds of domestic trouble. Wet case history of how the neighbors apartment flooded from above, could form the basis for many jokes, if all were not so sad. By law, meanness, most stains and stains appear on the newly whitewashed ceiling, soak the new wallpaper, it is necessary to restore svezhepolozhenny expensive laminate or hardwood floor. Of bays suffer not only finish, but also furniture, electronics and household appliances. And very much want to find a way to permanently secure the apartment of leaks. Hedging really can, and in the truest sense of the word. "Gulf neighbors on top - one of the risks, which can be specified in the policy. In addition, you can insure against destruction or damage by fire, natural disasters, etc. ", - says Alexey Kozmin, head of the Directorate of underwriting property insurance to individuals and mortgage insurance group" UralSib ". Objects of insurance may be: structural elements flat (wall, window and door designs) interior trim (all types of plastering and painting, coating the walls, ceiling, floor, technical and engineering equipment), heating and air conditioning systems, plumbing fixtures, movable property (furniture, electronics, home appliances), and even clothing. Of course, buying the policy does not prevent a flood, but to eliminate its effects do not have because of your wallet. Such insurance can be purchased at any time, but the interior trim to insure better immediately after repair, and design elements - even before it starts. The cause of the Gulf can be not only irresponsible neighbors, but the problem with in-house networks, heat and water, responsibility for which rests with the Management Company (MC) that maintain the house. It is important to remember that one of the main functions of the Criminal Code - the content and maintenance of the common property of apartment buildings. Accordingly, any problems with the common property - care management company. She should make repairs in the apartment, if there was a gulf of the common riser. However, to achieve full restoration of the property, you are very well behave. First of all, immediately report to the CC and the Gulf of dispatchers. "If the management company refuses to acknowledge his guilt, then the owner of the premises should contact the expert agency to conduct an independent examination with subsequent evaluation of the damage - says lawyer Elisha Pyatin, inter-regional officer of the Bar" The Law and the people. " - The examination must necessarily invite a representative of the Criminal Code for this by sending a written notice, a copy of which must stay in your arms with a mark of acceptance. " If there is no desire to voluntarily compensate the Criminal damage to property should send a claim for damages caused to the Gulf. If you still followed by silence or denial, is one option - to court. But it is worth thinking about and what can be responsible for the flood yourself. Plucked cock, bursting radiator or break a washing machine - all it can in one day is not the best to happen in your house, causing damage not only your property, but neighbors and the apartments below. Appease the affected neighbors again will the insurance, but its other form - a policy of civil liability. In fact, this CTP for the landlord. "Bay - the most common cause of injury, - says Max Hoffman, a specialist of the retail insurance IJSC" RESO-Guarantee ". - Policyholder can choose a size limit, within which it occurs in the third-party liability insurance company will reimburse caused them losses. This limit varies from 30 rubles to 30 million. " That is, if even your fault and hurt other people's property, pay for its restoration again have not you. Another way - do not forget to do during the repair of waterproofing floors, then the neighbors below will be protected from moisture from above. "There is one, however, quite expensive and difficult option - says Ismet Mr. Coskun, managing director of construction company" MIM-system ", which specializes in the repair of dwellings - to connect a system of" smart home ". Then monitor the situation in the apartment will be a computer connected to the Internet and equipped with various sensors. As soon as he notices that some communications have broken down, turn off all at once and notify the owner. " What can we build a house choosing complex solutions, one must be absolutely sure of the masters that you trust to their homes. We need to start with the project. Otherwise, the room may not be suitable for housing. You can ruin even a very large area, making it tight and uncomfortable. It is equally important that the draft all communication. Even such a trifle as the ill-placed switch, is able to strongly pull the nerves. In addition, the project should immediately think about how will be finished with risers, which are common for houses of communication. "If the repair involves closure of the flat tubes for general use, then this should be duly executed permit from the management company - says Elisha Pyatin. - If you do not, then at the break pipe restoration finishes in the apartment would be at the expense of its owner. And if you break caused effects, such as the Gulf of the lower floors, the owner, in a room which was renovated in violation of the plan, will be liable for damages, together with the management company. " But mistakes can happen when a seemingly simple manipulations. Most innocuous - badly aligned walls - damage only visual perception of the room. Another thing, when the wizard using the wrong technology. For example, if you exceed the maximum allowable thickness of the plaster, then six months later on the wall will crack. A similar story and the ceiling. It should be a little upset Technology, plaster does not stick to the concrete base, and as a result - over the cracks. "Unfortunately, if you are not a professional, then see the error is very difficult to master. Skilled workers are good at hiding their shortcomings - explains Mr. Coskun Ismet. - The only way out - apply only to large companies with good reputation, not to freestyle teams. " In this case, the customer must conclude a contract in which, among other things, will be specified warranty. "Typically, companies offer one-year warranty, - the expert continues, - but according to the law" On Protection of Consumer Rights "guarantee should be at least 24 months. When a company has such commitment, leadership itself is interested in quality work, and they certainly will supervise the work of their masters. " In the hands of professionals faced with adversity in a newly renovated apartment can also save on professional installation - particularly complex technical designs, such as stretch and suspended ceilings, new windows, air conditioning and much more. Every part of the work must meet professionals who have relevant work experience. For example, even high-quality laminate flooring installation instructions for non-compliance very soon begins to swell and deform. "This is one of the most common problems caused by the violation of the technology installation. Namely, non-size gap, which must be left between the walls and surfaces. Any independent review determines that the blame for the working team, which will be required to address deficiencies ", - says Nikolay Alenka, deputy director of construction company" Solar-system. " It is more difficult with plastic windows, as many defects not immediately apparent. "More than 90% of all complaints of PVC windows are caused by installing them illiterate - said Rafiq Alekperov, the technical director of TD PROPLEKS. - For example, tightness of the porch, shutters can be broken if the installation of windows in the ground were not fixed locking more remote lining and sealing products, which provide a tight seal valves. The result of this error - constant drafts. " Another possible evidence of poor editing - the formation of ice dams in winter at the junction of the frame and the window opening. "Installation of windows in accordance with GOST performed using PSUL (sealing strip) and the vapor barrier tape to the joint between the frame and the window opening was completely vapor tight, - said Ivan Shalaginov, director of the Kirov window of" Interservice ". - If the mounting joints do not have a vapor barrier, then in the winter moist warm air tends to go through them from the premises, the moisture freezes in the joint, forming a "cold bridges". How to choose a company that not only will produce high quality window, but it will install correctly? At some advice of friends and acquaintances here can not rely. A good recommendation for window companies can be considered a certificate of suppliers of PVC profiles. So, the company provides reliable partners PROPLEKS special "Certificate of Trust." This document is the manufacturer of windows gets only after the audit of production to meet the requirements for technology and product quality and service levels and developing the claims. Of course, no one can give a full guarantee from the emergence of domestic problems. However, in our hands to reduce the probability of all kinds of trouble to a minimum and maximum to prepare yourself and your home to meet these challenges. If you know your rights and be able to protect their property, and all of the apartment to trust the professionals, the woes and worries will bypass "your fortress" party.
