What is a “Turnkey House”?

”?

The dream of many city residents is a country house. In the modern world, people are increasingly seeking to buy or build houses outside the city, closer to nature. Building a house is a complex and labor-intensive process consisting of many stages. This is difficult for those who do not understand what construction is.

For those who have enough money, many companies offer ready-made facilities or turnkey construction. This article describes the different construction options and gives a detailed understanding of what a turnkey home is.

Options for building a house from scratch

People planning to build a house from scratch usually look for the necessary professionals for each stage of construction. First, concrete workers – to build the foundation, and then builders – walls, roofs, etc. Each of them can be a good specialist, but is not responsible for the final result. In addition, the customer must control and coordinate the actions of experts. With this construction option, developers may incur large financial costs. In addition, a lot of time and nerves are lost.

The best option in this case is to hire a construction team or enter into a construction contract with the professional company Art Constructions. At the same time, the following options for building a house from scratch are possible:

• Box design;
• For finishing;
• Completion of construction.

Construction of a box house

If your financial situation does not allow you to enter into a turnkey construction contract, then the cheapest option for building a house is to build a box. The cost of work and materials can be calculated using a calculator.

The work of constructing a box includes the most important stages, and further operations for constructing a house are

• Roof.

The client can either carry out the finishing work independently or hire the necessary specialists. Строительство коробки занимает от четырех до шести месяцев.

Construction of a house for final finishing

This construction option is a middle option between building boxes and turnkey. The following steps include.

• Project development;
• Marking the site with earthworks;
• Foundation works;
• Construction of walls, partitions and ceilings;
• Leveling the surfaces of walls and ceilings for finishing;
• Roofing devices;
• Summarizing all communications;
• Implementation of thermal, hydraulic, sound and steam barriers;
• Laying utility networks;
• Installation of windows and doors;
• Function of facades.

Such construction is not a turnkey house, although all the main construction work has already been completed, but the improvement of the interior decoration of the facility and the territory of the site remains.

What is a turnkey house

First of all, turnkey homes are becoming increasingly popular in today’s world where time and quality are of the utmost importance. The main advantage of this type of construction is that, by concluding an agreement with a construction organization for the construction of a turnkey house, the customer completely shifts all problems associated with construction to the contractor. Few people know that the construction of turnkey cottages is not only the construction of walls, but also the provision of additional services in the form of paperwork.

Turnkey construction of houses assumes that the customer discusses all the nuances of construction with the contractor even when signing the contract. The contract stipulates the obligations of the parties, financial issues, construction deadlines and penalties in case of failure to fulfill obligations. Once the contract is signed, the developer begins construction work and provides the client with a facility that can be used immediately thereafter.

The concept of turnkey varies from company to company. In our company’s understanding, we take care of the process of site selection, project development, obtaining permits, construction and commissioning of the facility. Let’s take a closer look at the concept of a turnkey home. This includes the content, time required and services provided.

Selection and breakdown of land

When choosing a site, the size and layout of future development are assessed. The availability of communications, their quality and connectivity are analyzed. Where they do not exist, possible options are being developed. Geological and topographical studies are being carried out. The site is currently being broken down. The buildings are located in such a way as to create the most comfortable living conditions.

Project development and obtaining permits

During design, the customer expresses his wishes, and the contractor offers options for their implementation. There are two options here: ready-made projects and individually developed projects. After the project has been developed, it must be approved and permits obtained from regulatory authorities. All these issues are resolved by the contractor.

Construction work

Construction works include:

• Earthworks: preparation of preparatory work and communications for foundation work;
• Foundation work: The type of foundation depends on the size of the building, its design features, soil type, proximity to groundwater, wall material and other factors. Foundations can be strip, cylindrical and monolithic;
• Construction of walls: wall materials are discussed at the design stage. It can be brick, foam concrete, foam concrete or any material at the request of the customer;
• Installation of ceilings and construction of internal partitions;
• Roofing: installation of a rafter system covered with roofing material;
• Performing steam, heat, hydro and sound insulation;
• Implementation of utility networks: installation of water supply systems, ventilation, sewerage, heat supply systems, electrical wiring, etc.;
• Installation of doors and windows;
• Internal and external finishing works;
• Providing and decorating premises in accordance with client requirements;
• Landscape design and gardening.

Commissioning of the house

The final stage of building a turnkey house is putting the facility into operation. After this stage, the developer can solemnly present the “certificate of ownership of the house” and the keys to it. Registration of documents with the company is free of charge as a gift from the company.
