Not only the legality, but also the safety, quality and stability of the future construction depends on this.

What does the process of obtaining a building permit depend on?

Obtaining a building permit is a complex process that depends on various factors, including the specific type of construction and its location.

First of all, the process of obtaining a permit depends on what exactly you plan to build:

1. If it is a private (individual) residential building, a garden country house or a multi-apartment residential complex, you need to consider the requirements of local laws regarding zoning and land use.
2. In the case of the construction of entertainment or shopping centers, office buildings or industrial facilities, it is additionally necessary to take into account the requirements for commercial activity and industrial safety.

The location of the building or structure is also an important factor:

1. If it will be built in the center of the city or its historical part, you should take into account certain restrictions regarding the architectural style and preservation of the historical environment.
2. The issue of soil properties at the construction site is an important aspect, taking into account geological characteristics and seismic activity.
3. Additional restrictions can be protective zones, local urban planning conditions and restrictions that regulate the maximum permissible height of the building and other parameters.

What types of construction works require a permit?

A building permit is mandatory for various types of construction work:

• During capital repair (renovation), when significant reconstruction or renewal of a building or structure is carried out.
• During the restoration of cultural objects, which involves the preservation and restoration of historical and cultural values.
• During the construction of new structures and buildings (construction from scratch), regardless of their purpose.
• During the technical re-equipment of buildings and structures, when modernization, replacement or improvement of existing systems and equipment are carried out.
• For the reconstruction of already built construction objects, when changes are made in the structure or purpose of the building or structure.

What documents are required to obtain a building permit?

Documentation for obtaining a building permit may vary depending on local regulations and specific project conditions. However, some common elements include building plans, permitting documents, and technical specifications. We are ready to help you prepare and submit all the necessary documents for obtaining a permit.

Consequences of arbitrary construction

Unauthorized construction has serious consequences that can affect homeowners, neighbors, and overall public safety. Here are some of the most typical consequences of unauthorized construction:

1. Legal consequences. Owners may face legal problems such as fines, cancellation of building permits, or even lawsuits from authorities or neighbors.
2. Financial losses. Unauthorized construction can lead to large financial costs for payment of fines, legalization of construction or even dismantling of illegal structures.
3. Impact on property. Illegal constructions can affect the property of neighbours, as well as create conflicts within common property or land boundaries.
4. Safety and quality of buildings. Unauthorized construction often does not take into account safety and construction quality requirements, which can lead to accidents, landslides or other negative events.
5. Other aspects. Illegal structures may violate local zoning and land use ordinances or regulations, which may result in loss of access to communications networks and other problems.

Seeking professional legal advice when unauthorized construction is discovered can help avoid serious consequences and find the best solution for all parties involved.
