How to build a quality house on "turnkey basis" at low cost
Almost all people think the same way: life is composed of many worries, and construction of the house will be another big concern. It would be better to buy a ready house. Then, people start to spend huge amounts of time for searching and examination of different houses. They inspect a lot of houses, but they do not like anything…
Those at home can not enjoy it, because at home, on the market are basically houses built for sale, but because their quality is questionable.
Attitude to Construction of the House All Over the World
For this reason, the idea of building a house does not leave those people who are still in search of the house, or those who have bought a house and occupied it, and already, have got to know all his faults... Moreover, this situation is typical not for a single country, but it is typical for people all around the world.
Real estate specialists know that people like only the houses that people have built for themselves. Those houses are sold extremely rare. People around the world inherit such houses, and if they sell such houses, it is made only to people of their familiar circle. This is due to the fact that such houses are individually designed, constructed qualitatively, the materials used are of the best brands, and therefore, their value is very high or difficult to be determined.
Without a doubt, build a house for yourself!
It is clear that construction of the house will be cheaper than buying a ready house, which can also present unpleasant surprises. We do not recommend buying even old wooden houses made once by our company, because our technology is not standing still and become more perfect with each passing year.
All Work Must Begin with Planning!
Sometimes, preparation for the work determines progress of the work itself. First, the necessary studies should be carried out on the site, then, projects have to be developed from the general project, in combination, to the smallest project, in details, and only then, the stages of construction may be developed. When everything has been designed and planned, construction will be carried out efficiently, quickly and, what is the most important, economically efficient.
The house, which has been designed, means a half-built house!
The project work is so important that people in Finland consider that its completion implies a readiness of the house by 50%! It does not matter how fast you want to build a house, you should know that, in Europe, it takes 3 years from the idea to build a house to the house warming party. Thus, design and planning work is only the first step.
Now, we explain the process step by step:
Architectural project of the house
To communicate with the architect, prepare a photo of any house you like, or sketch out a drawing of the house yourself. Our architects can build on an existing model of the house, but they can begin to develop and entirely new type of the house. Architectural project of wooden house includes elevations, floor plans and cross- sections.
We provide an architectural design of house on the basis of Target Specification Form, which is to be filled by the Lumi Polar Project Manager serving you, according to your wishes.
Set of wooden house
Following the approval of the customer of the architectural project of his wooden house, we calculate the value of its component parts.
Cost of the Wooden House
Calculation of the cost of any wooden house is based on its architectural project (4 facades, floor plans, cross-sections) and Request Form for Calculation of Wooden House Set, which is to be filled by our Project Manager in accordance with the wishes of the client. The Request Form is a list of questions and your answers to them. They will be the original data to calculate the value of the wooden house.
- We calculate the cost of a wooden house with a view of it's a complete set, including all finishing materials - it is an external and internal wall material, the design of ceiling and roof with the necessary paneling, floors and baseboards, interior and exterior doors with fittings, triple-glazed windows, sauna with interior decoration, etc. We do not deliver wooden houses partially or individual elements of the houses, as wooden house, built turnkey, is a guarantee of reliability and quality, as well as the reputation of our brand.
- We count the price for the set of the house about 2 weeks. This happens with the participation of engineers and designers, who adapt the project to the wood, in accordance with the standards adopted in Finland, considering the best engineering solutions with laminated veneer lumber / timber in this house.
The cost of a wooden house depends on many factors, such as:
- The complexity of the architectural design is a major factor in its value.
- Ceiling height.
- Type of construction: timber or logs (thin or thick, glued or laminated).
- Availability of frame structures.
- Type of roof system depends on the choice of the type of roof, made by the client.
- Select the component parts and materials: windows, doors, floors, stairs, sauna, decorations, etc. etc.
Based on those factors, you can understand that the cost of the ready wooden house calculated per 1 square meter can never be called. Even the wooden houses, which are presented on our website, customers order in a different configuration and order them made of different materials, so the price for wooden houses of the same model a can be very different, sometimes several times.
Terms of Payment
When placing an order for the production of a set of the wooden house, you must sign the contract and pay 50% of its value within 5 banking days. Payment of the second part of the price in the 50% must be paid by the client within 5 business days after we have done all working architectural drawings and approved them with the client.
100% advance payment is related to the fact that every wooden house we produce custom tailored: process the corresponding raw materials, glue them according to the selected profile, model the parts under certain sizes, etc.
Production Time for a Set of the Wooden House
Production time for the wooden house will be 12 weeks or more. It depends on the complexity of the design, size of the house, selected materials, the production schedule, the time of year and upon the client. If a customer makes a payment out of time, or it makes changes to the project or change the selected materials, the production of the house may be delayed.
Delivery of the House
On customer’s request, we deliver the full set of the house from Finland to the place of construction.
Progection on utilites
We proceed to projection of utilities after placing an order for a set of the wooden house and payment of 50% of its value.
Drawings of the House Foundation
We do those drawings before the start of work on the installation of the foundation on the basis of the architectural design of the wooden house. The cost of the drawings included in the total cost of the house set.
Construction Design (working architectural drawings)
They are detailed drawings, which are necessary for production of the wooden house set, and assembly of the house at the construction site. The cost of the drawings is included in the total cost of the house set.
Cost of Projection of Utilities
Projects of the house foundation, water supply, sewerage, heating and electrics - those types of engineering are not included in price of the house set, so they can be carried out by local experts.
Assembly of the Wooden House Is the Most Important Element in Construction!
Finnish technology of erecting houses has its own specifics, so we trust their assembly only to our professionals - they have many years of experience and improve it in the process of assembling wooden houses, with new construction solutions and technologies.
The shell of the building consists of a roof, exterior walls, including windows and doors, and a foundation. It is necessary that all those structures, elements and details of the house were assembled professionally, thorough and accurate.
The most of heat escapes through the roof, so it is important to put the insulation materials right.
Proper installation of windows and doors in the wooden house, too, play an important role in the energy efficiency of the house.
Warm Lumi Polar House
The energy efficient house is such architectural solutions and technologies that increase comfort and, at the same time, reduce the cost of heating a house. Subsequently, the cost of energy-efficient house construction will be paid off by reducing energy costs.
Due to the effective construction, we achieve maximum comfort and save energy in every our house. The studies have shown that our wooden houses are extremely energy efficient - they allow saving up to 25% of energy amount.
Construction of houses Lumi Polar also leads to positive changes in the field of environmental impact. Implemented light facilities, ventilation, heat recovery, modern inverters, solar energy, water-saving plumbing fixtures and appliances are responsible for cost reduction.
Despite the fact that our wooden houses are tight, people breathe easily in them - natural ability of wood to equalize the temperature and humidity ensure excellent air quality in any season. It, simultaneously, reduces the cost and ventilation.
Assembling of a wooden house set on a finished basement is carried out from 2 to 12 weeks - depending on the size of the house and its equipment. Unloading of component parts of the house and their storage at the construction site is important too - they must be carried out in accordance with accepted standards and regulations. If the assembly of the wooden house has been done wisely and carefully, in the future, you will avoid many problems.
Construction of the wooden house on "turnkey basis"
Assembly of wooden houses is carried out by our experts, while construction of the whole wooden house on "turnkey basis" with the help of local construction companies will be more preferable.
Cost of construction of the wooden house on "turnkey basis" consists of prices for the following:
- Design and planning
- Preparation of the site for construction
- Setting of the foundation
- House set manufacture, delivery and assembly
- Installation of technical equipment
- Interior decorating
If prior to construction, someone will declare you the cost of the house construction "on turnkey basis", then you should know that it would not be true.
Firstly, because land plots are different, and therefore, the price of preparatory work will differ, sometimes, greatly. We also encourage you to read section Choosing the right plot on our website.
Secondly, arrangement of the house, its equipment, technical equipment and all kinds of accessories are cheap, expensive, very expensive, or even exclusive, so the cost of a wooden house "on turnkey basis" can be calculated only considering all your proposals.
