In CONSTRUCTION TIPS we usually want to know about our work, DECORATION TIPS, about CUSTOM KITCHEN, countertops, coverings, etc., right? However, a construction project also has many challenges, from the team, labor, planning and the relationship with NEIGHBORS. That's right, knowing how to deal with neighboring constructions is challenging and is included as DECORATION TIPS, and in today's video I will show you 10 PROBLEMS WITH NEIGHBORHOODS THAT BRING LOSS AND HEADACHES. Watch the video until the end so you don't lose money or your peace with your neighbors. ITEM 1 - CONSTRUCTION THAT TAKES AWAY YOUR PRIVACY - In construction projects, we have mandatory setbacks determined in the building code of each municipality, and these setbacks determine how far apart we can build to have windows. We cannot use cobogós, glass bricks or any gap without respecting the setback. Be careful not to take away your neighbors' privacy, as it is also not allowed to build a very high wall, as this would interfere with the approval of your project by the city hall; ITEM 2 – NOISE – This affects houses and apartments, we have airborne noise and impact noise, airborne noise is that which propagates through the air, such as loud music, a dog barking, a car on the street, etc. Impact noise is when there is a hammer on the wall, a person wearing high heels upstairs, etc. A good solution is acoustic windows, whether aluminum or PVC windows, with double pane; we can also use overlapping windows, heavier curtains, and solid wood doors. On the walls, we can use carpentry, cabinets, panels; against the masonry wall, I use drywall with insulation inside; we can use vermiculite in the mortar, plaster lining or wood lining; on the floor, we can use blankets, foam, and cork on the subfloor. Vinyl flooring, carpets and rugs; ITEM 3 – EASEMENT OF RIGHT OF WAY – When a plot of land on a slope or incline cannot access the public water supply network, the public water supply network has the right to pass these facilities through a neighboring plot of land to the street. This devalues the land in question, but this is subject to compensation agreed upon by both parties; ITEM 4 – WALL – Never use your neighbor's wall as if it were yours. If you are going to build your house and his wall is already built, build yours from the edge of your land to the inside of your house. Some people like to split the cost of the wall to make it cheaper, but you will always depend on your neighbor's approval to do anything to the wall on your side; ITEM 5 – INFILTRATION – Whether it is a leak, a shower that is leaking water to your side, a clogged gutter, etc., we have to be very careful. On your roof, make a flashing, use PU mass where the gutters meet the wall, use asphalt paint, asphalt mass or polymeric mortar for waterproofing; ITEM 6 – CRACKS – Depending on your neighbor's foundation, the machinery can generate vibrations that will cause damage to your home. Shallow foundations are simple, such as a foundation beam, rebar, etc. Deep foundations, using driven or even excavated piles, can cause damage to neighboring buildings; ITEM 7 – BLOCKING VIEWS AND SUN – If the neighbor respects the distances, there is not much you can do. He has the right to build on your land, but we can design a project to minimize this, or even have a ceiling light with a skylight, skylight, atrium, etc.; ITEM 8 – BUILDING ON YOUR LAND – Whether due to a construction error, marking error or even an error at the land registry office that has the wrong land measurements, the fact is that if this happens, a rectification of the area is necessary and both neighbors must sign, but if someone does not agree, this can be a headache; ITEM 9 – RETAINING WALL – This is different from the conventional wall, as it needs to be calculated to contain the land on the other side, have a drainage system, a robust structure to avoid collapse problems, this is a very serious item and you need the help of your calculation engineer to avoid errors and accidents; ITEM 10 – DIRT – Construction work does generate dirt, but we have to minimize this as much as possible and be helpful when we cause some inconvenience to neighbors, cleaning up.
