Hello! Contact the Management Company, demand that the work be carried out, and if they refuse, write to the prosecutor’s office or the local administration, they should help resolve the problem.

As part of the “Your Defender” project, the famous lawyer, deputy chairman of the Public Chamber of Komi, Roman Koidan, answers questions from residents of Komi. "Respublika" offers readers legal comments on the most pressing issues.


“I haven’t been able to get the roof repaired for a year now.” Everything flows, and after each rain the area of ​​the leak increases. I wrote a complaint to the city administration, but so far there has been silence. I contacted the management company in writing, but the results have so far been zero. What do I need to do next?
– The roof belongs to the common property of the owners of the apartment building. The issue of repairing the common property of an apartment building is resolved at a general meeting of owners of the premises of the apartment building. That is, it is necessary to organize a general meeting of homeowners and hold a vote, after which a decision must be made to carry out roof repairs. The decision of this meeting must be recorded. If the decision to repair is not made, then it is necessary to seek roof repair through the court.
– I live in a non-privatized apartment. The roof has been leaking for ten years. We went to court. In March 2015, a local court ordered the Vuktyl administration to carry out roof repairs in the apartment. Court documents from the bailiffs. There is no movement from the administration. What to do?
– Article 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation establishes the binding nature of court decisions that have entered into legal force for all state authorities, local governments, public associations, officials, citizens, and organizations without exception. Moreover, failure to comply with a court decision entails liability under federal law. In particular, malicious (i.e., continued after a repeated written warning from the authorized bodies about the inadmissibility of their failure to comply) entails criminal liability under Article 315 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The tasks of executing judicial acts are entirely assigned to bailiffs.
Therefore, first of all, go to the bailiff and familiarize yourself with the materials of the enforcement proceedings, make copies of them, and first write a corresponding statement about it. If you understand that the bailiff is inactive, then attach all the documents to the complaint about the inaction of the bailiff addressed to his head (you can file a complaint about the inaction of the bailiff via mail, bring the complaint yourself, and file it on the FSSP website: http://r11. fssprus.ru/ir/) or directly to the application to the court. If you are not satisfied with the response of the FSSP, then you can contact the prosecutor’s office with a complaint about inaction.
– I am a resident of an apartment building in Syktyvkar, the apartment is my property. There was a fire in a neighbor's municipal apartment. The cause of the fire has not been determined, as the fire occurred due to poor wiring. The house is wooden, and as a result of a fire it burned down Entrance door Windows in the entrance and staircase fell out, the railings need to be changed. My apartment was not damaged, but winter is coming, the wind is already blowing in the entrance, dampness from the rain, but what will happen when it snows? The administration does not want to do repairs at the entrance; they say everything should be done by the management company. The fire happened in the summer, and repairs have not yet been carried out. Tell me, please, what should be done in this situation? Who should repair the entrance? Where should I contact?
– If the Ministry of Emergency Situations gives a certificate (conclusion) that the fire occurred due to dilapidated electrical wiring located in a municipal apartment (or in the common areas of a municipal house), then the administration is considered to be at fault for the fire, since it did not ensure the safe condition of its property. property. If you have the above documents, you can send a pre-trial claim to the administration demanding work, and if it is ignored, file a claim in court against the administration for carrying out repair work to eliminate the consequences of a fire. If there are no documents proving anyone’s guilt, then repairs are carried out at the expense of the owners (as individuals- apartment owners and administration) of the premises of an apartment building, in proportion to the occupied total area of ​​​​the premises. It is assumed that in this case, the owners must hold a meeting at which they must agree on the estimate, the contractor, the cost of the repair work and the representative from the house who will sign the certificates of work performed. You can initiate the meeting. If the owners do not make a decision or avoid holding a meeting, then you can file a claim against the owners of the premises to impose on them the obligation to make repairs.
– Tell me, with the introduction of a receipt for major repairs, the column “maintenance and repair of common property” should have disappeared? Is it still there and you still have to pay for it?
– Maintenance and repair of housing and major repairs are different types services. For example, the maintenance and repair of housing includes routine repairs of common property, maintenance of elevators, cleaning of entrances, courtyard areas, snow removal, clearing the roof of ice, general house lighting, etc. Thus, if work on the house is actually carried out, then the receipt must be paid. Documents confirming expenses can be requested from the management company or HOA.
- At our entrance they made redecorating. What can we, as residents, demand from the management company regarding the report? And one more question: at the entrance to the entrance we have a very scary floor. Should it have been repaired or not?
– You have the right to request in writing all necessary information about repair work, a detailed report on what work was carried out, how much and what exactly your money was used for.
On the second question. If the estimate for repairs included repairs to the floor at the entrance to the entrance, then the management company or the contractor should have done it. Request documents for repairs.
“My parents bought an apartment and took ownership in February. In April, like everyone else, we received a receipt for payment for major repairs in the name of the former owner since October. Mom went to the regional capital repair fund, located on Dimitrova, 10, to report that the apartment has a new owner, and to recalculate her payment from the moment she took ownership. To this, the girl who works there said that my mother is obliged to pay the entire amount. But in fact, this is someone else's debt. What to do in this situation?
– When the ownership of premises in an apartment building is transferred to the new owner, the obligation of the previous owner to pay the costs of major repairs of the apartment building, including the obligation not fulfilled by the previous owner to pay contributions for major repairs (Part 3 of Article 158 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation) passes to the new owner. . Therefore, your parents, as purchasers of residential premises, needed to make sure in advance that the previous owner paid for the costs of major repairs. Otherwise, the parents could offer the previous owner to pay the costs themselves before the alienation of the residential premises or reduce the cost of the residential premises by the amount of expenses to pay for major repairs. At the moment, your parents can pay for major repairs and, by way of recourse, sue the previous owner of the apartment and recover the money paid for the major repairs, since they were not properly notified of all the terms of the purchase and sale agreement.
– For a long time in our apartment at the junction of the flexible hose and plastic pipe cold water Water was leaking under the kitchen sink. No one noticed this, since there were no visible marks on the floor. Ten days ago the neighbors from downstairs came and said that they had a wet spot on the wall and the wallpaper was peeling off. On the same day, we turned off the water, called the housing department workers and immediately fixed the leak. But after removing the flexible hose, it turned out that even with the valve closed, water still leaks from the pipe, that is, the valves that the housing department installed do not completely shut off the water. Today the neighbors came and again asked to pay for the repairs, but they already listed that the closet, wall, wallpaper, floor, and ceiling were damaged. As far as we know, no flood report was drawn up - we did not sign anything and did not see the damage caused. How can we prove that the leak is not our fault, but the fault of the housing department, which installed these valves to shut off the water supply to the riser?
– There must be a flood report. In general, it is compiled in order to confirm the presence of damage to property and the causes of damage. It could have been compiled in your absence, if you were not at home.
If there is a dispute about the causes and the culprit in the bay, no one is stopping the neighbors from filing a claim against you, and in court you can already bring the REU employees as the proper defendant and present evidence of their guilt.
An examination can prove that the leak was not your fault. It can be held at the Komi Chamber of Commerce and Industry. It will determine who is to blame - you, the REU employees, or the manufacturer of low-quality valves.
If the flooding occurred due to a poorly installed valve, then it will be necessary to prove that the leak was repaired by a housing department employee. If you contacted the housing department service with a request to send you an employee to fix the leak, then they should keep records of such requests - an application, a log, certificates of work performed. Request this information in writing.

When purchasing an apartment, the new owner does not always think about the problems that he may encounter. Thus, in apartment buildings over 30 years old, problems often arise with water supply and sewerage systems; pipes and risers leak. It will not be possible to fix the problem within one apartment. Purchasing new plumbing fixtures may be completely useless, since risers need to be replaced. Who should change the risers in an apartment building, at whose expense should the work be carried out?

Legislation

In 2006, the Government of the Russian Federation adopted Rules that determine the procedure for maintaining common property. This act discloses the concept of “common property” by listing those objects that belong to it. Among others, equipment serving more than 1 apartment and a water drainage (sewage) system are indicated.

Who is responsible for replacing common property? To answer this question, it is necessary to distinguish between two concepts - current and major repairs. The first is carried out by the efforts and resources of apartment residents. Current repairs include the following types of work:

  • painting floors, doors;
  • replacement of window and door openings;
  • repair utility networks, which are located inside the apartment;
  • other types of work.

Major repairs are carried out by the management organization. Carrying out repair work that is required to maintain water supply, sewerage, and heating risers in working condition is the responsibility of the housing office or another company with which the corresponding agreement was concluded.

Responsibilities of apartment owners

In order to carry out repairs of common property, a management company is involved, to which part of the powers are transferred.

Responsibilities of the Housing Office

The housing office or other organization entrusted with the responsibility for the maintenance, replacement and repair of common building equipment in an apartment building carries out the relevant work based on the plan for its implementation.

Good to know! The owners themselves can contact the authorized company with a statement indicating the need to consider the issue of replacing the riser. Such an appeal is subject to consideration. The Housing Office is obliged to provide its response in writing.

In practice, such organizations do not always fulfill their duties conscientiously and on time. Sometimes they refuse to carry out major repairs, explaining that there are debtors among the owners who have not made payments for their services. This basis is not a legal reason for failure to fulfill the duties of the Housing Office.

Who pays for the replacement of risers

Apartment owners contribute monthly funds for maintenance and repairs. That is why all capital work, including replacing the riser, is carried out without raising additional money from the owners. The apartment owners already paid for the repairs.

If the housing office invites residents to independently raise money for capital works, then it is illegal. Apartment owners in such a situation can complain about such actions to the prosecutor's office or to the court.

The obligation to carry out pipe replacement work will depend on where they are located and how many apartments they serve. If they are located inside a residential premises, then the repairs are carried out at the expense of its owner.

The work will be carried out either by the management organization or by a third-party company. In both cases, replacement is carried out on a reimbursable basis.

So, the riser refers to common property, the replacement of which is. All work is carried out at the expense of the owners, who must transfer funds monthly for the maintenance and repair of such equipment. That is why the management company’s attempts to illegally raise additional funds from residents are illegal.

Sometimes they refuse to carry out major repairs, explaining that there are debtors among the owners who have not made payments for their services. This basis is not a legal reason for failure to fulfill the duties of the Housing Office. Who pays for the replacement of risers Apartment owners contribute monthly funds for maintenance and repairs. That is why all capital work, including replacing the riser, is carried out without raising additional money from the owners. The apartment owners already paid for the repairs. If the housing office offers residents to independently raise money for capital work, then this is illegal. Apartment owners in such a situation can complain about such actions to the prosecutor's office or to the court.

Every month you can see the line “maintenance and repair of housing” in notices for payment of utility services. The amount depends on the square footage of the apartment and the number of residents.


According to the norms of MDK 2-04.2004, there are two lists of works that are included in the rent. This includes:

  • maintenance of various common property;
  • technical and other maintenance of communications;
  • emergency work;
  • Maintenance.

That is, all replacement, maintenance and repair work is already included in the already hefty rent.


Therefore, the housing office must change the sewer riser in a privatized apartment absolutely free of charge. It's already been paid for. An exception is the case when repairs are required as a result of unauthorized repairs made by one of the apartment owners or any structural changes to the building's common communications.

Repairs to common property are carried out by a management company to which residents have delegated the right to manage common property.

At whose expense and who should replace risers in an apartment building

Attention

Including for:

  • water;
  • sewerage;
  • other benefits of civilization.

And here the question arises: who is the owner of those pipes and their branches that are no longer inside each private apartment, but connect it with utilities that supply water, heat and light to the building itself? They, as it turns out, relate to common property belonging to all owners. That is, those pipes in the apartment are personal, and the risers are shared.


Legislation Legislation confirms this. In 2006, the government approved the Rules regarding the maintenance of common property. They list what exactly applies to property recognized as common:
  1. Equipment serving more than one apartment.
  2. Drainage system (i.e. sewerage), etc.

But this is not the reason for refusing to carry out work to replace the risers. Who should pay for this? Since the amount of monthly contributions that all owners of premises in an apartment building are required to pay is determined, there is no need to pay any additional funds for major repairs and replacement of risers.

Let us remind you once again that the owners include:

  • apartment owners on property rights, privatization;
  • municipal authorities regarding public housing premises.

All of them are required to pay according to the standard established for 1 square meter living space occupied by a specific apartment.
