A process such as the construction of a private country house or cottage is quite complex and requires not only the utmost attention of potential future owners, but also professional specialists, as well as considerable financial investments. Since construction is a systematic procedure that has specific stages, it is important to follow them as accurately as possible and solve all the tasks assigned to it. The work plan for the construction of a country house can be described in the following sequence:
- Selection of territory, selection of a specific land plot.
- Engineering and geological work on the territory.
- Creation of a detailed project.
- Formation of estimates based on the developed project.
- Obtaining permits.
- Home construction.
- Commissioning of a residential property.
So, let’s take a closer look at all the stages of construction implementation, consider the features and nuances of specific processes.
Selection of territory and necessary research
The selection of a plot of land on which the construction of a private house will actually take place must be done with extreme caution and taking into account many factors. For example, when planning to build a house of more than 200 m², you must select a plot of at least 12 acres. It is important to take into account infrastructure, communications, the presence of transport branches, etc.
After identifying the site, it will be necessary to conduct geotechnical soil tests. To do this, you will need to involve a number of specialists and specialized equipment, since to ensure safe and quick construction you will need data on soil and groundwater, and for this, in turn, it is necessary to create several wells on the site to take soil samples and determine the water level.
It is important to note that it is absolutely impossible to carry out construction without first carrying out geological work. The composition of the soil will tell you which foundation is best to use during construction to ensure safe operation in the future, and the groundwater level will show the possibility of constructing a basement without the possibility of flooding. That is why this stage in construction should be treated with special attention.
Project and construction price
The design process is one of the most creative and interesting stages of construction, since it is now that the future home will be determined. Let us immediately make a reservation that it is better to entrust the project to professional architects. In Dnepr you can find these at the Dewpoint construction company. Moreover, we can not only develop an individual project according to the client’s requirements, but also offer modern standard projects to save money and time.
At this stage, it is important to take into account the nuances associated with the layout and appearance of the future house/cottage. Experts will repeatedly ask you whether the location of specific rooms and premises is suitable for you.
After approval of the country house project, you will be provided with an estimate with an accurate calculation of the cost of the required amount of building materials, as well as construction work. Here you can ask questions that you have, consult about the selected material, etc.
The estimate provided at this stage will provide you with security and protection from additional financial investments. By calculating the exact cost of construction, you will clearly see how much you will need to pay for the implementation of the process, and that no additional costs are expected.
Country house project: composition and necessary documents
At its core, a project is a detailed package of documents containing all the necessary parameters, describing the details, etc. All these documents allow you to visualize a house or cottage both outside and inside. In some cases, it happens that additional sections are added to the project to allow a more detailed examination of specific structures. This documentation is useful both during direct construction and for quality control in the future.
The main sections that a house project always contains are:
- architectural project;
- constructive plan;
- plan of engineering structures.
The architectural project in turn consists of:
- master plan;
- detailed layout of axes;
- laying plans and marking drawings;
- façade drawings and elevations;
- roofing project;
- main divisions of the house (sections);
- design of floors and window/door openings;
- ventilation and chimney design (if necessary).
The structural plan includes reinforced concrete and wood descriptions . In the case of the first, we are talking about:
- general information about materials;
- plan for installing the foundation and choosing building materials;
- creating a porch;
- floors and material specifications;
- jumpers in the house;
- monolithic belt.
Wooden descriptions indicate the roof design, roof structure components and specifications.
The engineering plan consists of the analysis and requirements for each specific communication system. Here their types and materials are determined. The heating circuit, sewerage, water supply, etc. are drawn.
What documents are needed?
To begin the process, you must obtain a special permit , which will indicate the possibility of carrying out construction work, and also, in the future, the right to own the property.
In order to easily obtain such permission from the relevant authorities, it is necessary to prepare an application, provide a project of the future house and an agreement concluded with the contractors who will carry out the construction.
Construction
The stage of direct construction of a private country house is described as follows:
- Preliminary preparation of the area is carried out, the construction site is cleared – from 3 days to 2 weeks.
- The necessary communications are provided and the foundation is installed . On average, this happens up to several weeks.
- Walls and ceilings are erected, which in turn takes place over a period of up to several months, taking into account the selected area and number of floors of the future house.
- Roofing work is being carried out and takes about a month.
- Landscape work, improvement of the local area and the site as a whole are being carried out.
Delivery of the object
After completing all the previous stages, the finished building is subject to registration. To do this, documents on ownership, as well as the technical passport of the building itself, are transferred to the relevant authorities.
To obtain the desired result from the planned construction process, it is necessary to strictly follow the order and steps given above. Don’t forget about building control. That is why it is worth entrusting the entire process to the professionals of the Dupoint construction company . The construction of turnkey private houses in the Dnieper at a competitive price can be realized with us!
