Overhaul in an apartment usually takes from three to five months. The duration of the work is explained by the use of individual building technologies. For example, a concrete floor screed, before applying the finish coating, should gain maximum strength and dry completely. This takes at least 50 days, and it is impossible to speed up the process.
If the owners set out to make a major overhaul in the apartment and spend no more than 10 days on it, a number of conditions must be observed. For example, to purchase a ready-made renovated apartment. Save the situation and the presence of a new building apartment with rough decoration, and communication networks. In old apartments, you will need to abandon concrete work and level the floors and walls with a dry screed.
To speed up the repair process, preliminary preparation is required. The best option would be to entrust the work to a team of professional builders. If it is decided to carry out repairs yourself, it is worth stocking up with the necessary materials and equipment. In the absence of the necessary power tools, you must borrow it from friends, or rent.
The apartment should be freed from personal belongings and furniture. If this is not possible, things from the repaired premises will have to be moved from room to room, as repairs are completed. Family members and pets should be temporarily lodged with relatives or friends. Also, you need to get rid of unnecessary interior doors, plumbing and other large construction waste in advance, ordering a special container for this.
Work begins with floor leveling. To do this, use wooden logs, sheets of thick plywood or chipboard. If the base wooden floor is in good condition, its boards are not rotten and do not creak, plywood can be laid directly on them.
Alignment of the surface of the walls also has to be done in a dry way. However, if the walls are even, this may not be necessary at all. With significant level differences, a frame of metal profiles is installed on the walls. Plasterboard sheets are attached to it. It is puttyed with gypsum-based compounds, which have a short drying time, allowing you to quickly go to the finish.
Fast repair of ceilings can be done only by installing simple tension structures in one level. Other finishing methods will take a lot of time.
