We help with the legalization of reconstruction

According to Ukrainian law, reconstruction of a building is considered to be the reconstruction of a room to improve living conditions or a change in the geometric size of the object (construction of a superstructure, extension, creation of a new entrance or windows, etc.). Before starting work, it is necessary to obtain permits and other approvals that depend on the type of reconstruction – without this, the reconstructed building cannot be inherited, sold or donated. Moreover, administrative or criminal liability is provided for unauthorized reconstruction! Lawyers of the DE-JURE company help to improve living conditions in compliance with the requirements of the law.

— First, for reconstruction, permits from architectural and construction control bodies are required, — says the head of the real estate and construction practice, lawyer, candidate of legal sciences Ivan Topor. — In addition, urban planning conditions and restrictions from the architecture and landscaping bodies of the settlement or a construction passport may be required. If it is a question of repairing supporting structures that are the property of all residents of an apartment building, then the consent of all co-owners is required.

When the reconstruction has already been carried out, and the owner of the house wants to legalize it, he must go through the same procedure and obtain all the permits required to begin work. At the same time, he risks being fined for carrying out construction work without a permit.

Since the process of legalizing reconstruction is not much simpler than the construction work itself, it is better to contact a lawyer who will prepare all the documents and save the client’s time and peace of mind.
