Various directions in small-scale construction. Solar collector business idea. Current expenses of the enterprise

Modern innovative construction technologies, striking the imagination with their originality and fantasticness, use both the achievements of the latest scientific research and the invaluable experience of ancestors.

Let's start with the most common building material - wood. It would seem that there is still something new to come up with? But here, too, modern innovative technologies come to the rescue.

1. Technology for the construction of domed houses without nails, Vladivostok, Russia

Scientists from the Far Eastern Federal University create modern wooden domed houses. At the same time, as in the good old days of Russian architects, without a single nail. Their uniqueness lies in the application of new designs of locks between individual parts of the wooden spherical frame.

A domed house from wooden parts is being created in record time. In just a matter of hours, the frame of an unusual house grows. Today, they want to test this technology in several cities of Russia. The links are joined together with the help of a special lock, which takes up all loads - vertical, lateral, and so on. The parts are made with such precision that it turns out a kind of "Lego" constructor. Anyone, having such a kit with a small assembly instruction, can mount this structure on their own.

At one of the recreation centers of the Primorsky Territory, there is already a domed express cafe "Snezhok", built by scientists, which is very popular, attracting visitors with an unusual shape. The second domed house is much larger - it is a two-storey twelve-meter structure with an area of 195 m2.

2. Multi-storey buildings made of wood, London, UK

We are all somehow accustomed to the fact that wood is used for the construction of low-rise houses, one or two stories high. But US developers consider it possible to use wood to construct buildings up to 30 stories high.

The first of the modern residential buildings, built of wood using modern technologies of wooden housing construction (from five-layer wooden glued panels), has 9 floors and 30 meters in height. This house is located in London, it has 29 residential apartments and offices on the ground floor.

Surprisingly, the entire aboveground part of this house was built in 28 working days by just five people, armed with only one mobile crane and electric screwdrivers.

3. Technology of construction of wooden houses Naturi, Austria

The technology consists of profiled small-sized tree trunks, called by specialists "balance", which are cut on a four-sided lathe. The fact that it is precisely the thin meter that is used clearly demonstrates the fact that in every element of the exception there is necessarily a core of a tree.

Then from these "puzzles" you can assemble any part of the building. Drying, individual elements are deformed and wedged "tightly ", Creating a very strong and lightweight construction.The purpose of the invention of such a technology is the use of low-quality raw materials, which in Russia, for example, are used only for cellulose or generally just for waste.

4. Nantong, Jiangsu Province, PRC

Chinese architects have invented a way to build cheap houses. Their secret is in a huge 3D printer that literally prints real estate. And this would not be unusual - the technologies of "printing" buildings are already known. But the fact is that Chinese houses will be made ... from construction waste.

Thus, the specialists of the architectural company Winsun intend to solve two problems at once. In addition to creating inexpensive houses, the project will give a second life to construction waste and industrial waste - this is what houses are created from.

The giant printer has really impressive dimensions - 150 x 10 x 6 meters. The device is quite powerful and can print up to 10 houses per day. The prime cost of each of them is no more than 5 thousand dollars.

A huge machine erects the outer structure, and the inner partitions are later assembled by hand. With the help of 3D printing technology in the Middle Kingdom, they hope to solve the urgent problem of affordable housing. In the near future, several hundred factories will appear in the country, which will produce consumables for a giant printer from construction waste.

5. House printed from bioplastic, Amsterdam, Holland

Dus Architects has developed a project for printing a residential building on a 3D printer from bioplastic. Construction is being carried out using an industrial KarmaMaker 3D printer that "prints" plastic walls. The construction of the building is very unusual - walls are attached to the three-meter end of the house as in the Lego construction set. If redevelopment of the building is required, then it can be easily changed by replacing one part with another.

For construction, a bioplastic developed by Henkel is used - a mixture of vegetable oil and microfiber, and the foundation of the house will be made of lightweight concrete. When completed, the building will consist of thirteen separate rooms. This technology has the potential to transform the entire construction industry. Old residential buildings and offices can simply be “melted down” and made into something new.

The idea of a similar material was found in ordinary seashells. The fact is that the shells are enriched with the necessary complex of minerals that give them elasticity. It is these minerals that are added to the composition of concrete. The new type of concrete is incredibly elastic, more crack-resistant, and even 40-50 percent lighter. Such concrete will not break even with very strong bends. Even earthquakes are not scary to him. An extensive network of cracks after such tests will not affect its strength. After removing the load, the concrete will begin the recovery process.

How does this happen? The secret is very simple. Normal rainwater reacts with concrete and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to form calcium carbonate in the concrete. This substance also binds the cracks that appear, "heals" the concrete. After removing the load, the restored section of the slab will have the same strength as before. Such concrete is going to be introduced in the construction of critical structures, for example, bridges.

7. Carbon dioxide concrete, Canada

Canadian company CarbonCure Technologies has developed an innovative technology for the production of concrete by binding carbon dioxide. This technology will reduce harmful emissions and could revolutionize the construction industry.

The production of concrete blocks uses carbon dioxide emitted by large enterprises such as refineries and fertilizer plants.

The new technology achieves a triple effect: concrete will be cheaper, stronger and more environmentally friendly. One hundred thousand of these concrete blocks will be able to absorb as much carbon dioxide as a hundred mature trees can absorb in a year.

Thatched houses using modern technologies are being built all over the world. Reliable, warm, cozy, they have perfectly withstood the test of our climate. However, until now, the modern technology of construction from compressed straw (in the West it is called strawbale-house) is known to a few. It is based on the best properties of this unique natural material. When pressed, it becomes an excellent building material. Pressed straw is considered the best insulation. Thatch stems of plants are tubular, hollow. They contain air, which is known to have low thermal conductivity, and between them. Due to its porosity, straw has good sound insulation properties.

It seems that the phrase "fire-resistant straw house" sounds paradoxical. But a plastered straw wall is not afraid of fire. Blocks covered with plaster withstand 2 hours of exposure to an open flame. A straw block that is open on one side only does not support combustion. The density of the bale is 200-300 kg / cu. m also prevents combustion.

Straw houses are being built in America, Europe, China. In the United States, there is even a project for the construction of a 40-story thatched skyscraper. The tallest straw houses today are five-story buildings, which are combined with reinforced concrete and metal frames.

Truly, everything new is well forgotten old. Homes made of soil are gaining popularity again. This material is still used today for the construction of supporting structures and walls.

At the heart of the soil biter is ordinary earthen soil. The earthbit has been tested by time, it was built from it back in Ancient Rome. Earthen ground mass has high moisture resistance and practically does not shrink. And the thermotechnical characteristics of the earth dweller can be enhanced by adding, for example, straw chopping. After a few years, the earth bit becomes almost as strong as concrete.

The most famous building, built of soil, can be considered the Priory Palace located in Gatchina.

10. Brick-chameleon, Russia

Since 2003, the Kopeysk brick factory has been producing bricks, nicknamed "velor" for its ability to literally absorb light on its surface, as a result of which it becomes saturated, resembling velvet.

The effect is achieved using vertical grooves applied to the brick surface with wire brushes. At the same time, it becomes possible to deepen the main color when the angle of incidence of light changes, which makes a brick like a chameleon - at different times of the day it is able to change color depending on the lighting.

The texture of velor bricks works great in tandem with smooth bricks in ornamental or curly masonry.

eleven. "Flying houses, Japan

Japan never ceases to amaze with its developments. The idea is simple - so that the house does not collapse as a result of an earthquake, it just ... should not be on the ground. So they came up with flying houses, and all this is quite real.

Undoubtedly, the word "flying" is a beautiful allegory that prompts childhood dreams of flying in a balloon house. But the Japanese design company Air Danshin Systems Inc has developed a system that allows buildings to rise above the ground and "hover" above it during an earthquake.

The house is located on an air cushion and after the sensors are triggered, it will simply hover above the ground, and during such a change, the residents of the building will not feel anything. The foundation is not attached to the structure itself. After hovering, the house sits on a frame located on top of the foundation. During an earthquake, seismic sensors are activated, which are located along the perimeter of the building. Then they will immediately start the blower compressor located at the base of the house. It will provide "levitation" of the building at a height of 3-4 cm from the ground. Thus, the house will not be in contact with the ground and will avoid the consequences of tremors. The novelty has already been installed in almost 90 houses in Japan.

Many Japanese firms have taken over the development of Flying Houses, and in the near future the know-how will appear in other regions of Asia, which often suffer from earthquakes.

12. Container house, France

Used containers have long been used for the construction of budget housing in different cities and countries. Here's one example.

During the construction of the house, eight old shipping containers were used, which created an unusual architectural form of the building. In addition to containers, wood, polycarbonate and glass were also used. The total area of the house is 208 square meters.

The cost of building such "container-type" economy houses is usually half the cost of building a similar house from ordinary building materials. In addition, it is being built twice as fast.

13. Exhibition Center of Shipping Containers, Seoul, South Korea

If residential buildings made of containers have long been a surprise, then a completely unusual building has appeared in the center of the business and shopping district of Seoul. It was built from 28 old shipping containers.

The area is 415 sq. The complex will host exhibitions, nightly film screenings, concerts, master classes, lectures and other public events.

14. Student hostels from containers, Holland

Each separate container room has all the amenities. In addition, the roof is equipped with an efficient drainage system that collects rainwater, which subsequently goes to domestic needs.

In Finland and other northern countries, hotels are being built out of ice with might and main. At the same time, a room in an ice hotel is more expensive than a hotel made from other, more traditional building materials. The ice hotel first opened in Sweden over 60 years ago.

16. Mobile eco-home, Portugal

A variety of technologies are used in the construction of such mobile structures. The peculiarity of this house is its complete energy independence. Solar panels are fixed on the surface of the object to generate energy that fully provides the unique house with the required amount. By the way, the house is not only environmentally friendly, but also completely mobile.

The eco-house is divided into two sections - in one there is a sleeping space, and in the other there is a toilet. Outside, the house is covered with environmentally friendly cork.

17. Energy efficient capsule room, Switzerland

The project was developed by architects from the NAU company (Switzerland), who sought to make the most comfortable and compact housing. Called Living Roof, the capsule room can be placed on almost any surface.

The capsule room is equipped with solar panels, wind turbines and a system for collecting, storing and recirculating rainwater.

18. Vertical forest in the city, Milan, Italy

Bosco Verticale's innovative project is the construction of two multi-storey buildings in Milan with living plants on the facade. The height of the two high-rise buildings is 80 and 112 meters. A total of 480 trees of large and medium size, 250 trees of low height, 5,000 different shrubs and 11,000 plants that form a grass cover are planted on them. This number of plants corresponds to an area of 10,000 m? an ordinary forest.

Thanks to almost two years of research work by botanists, the tree species that are best adapted to such difficult living conditions at altitude have been successfully selected. Various plants were specially grown and acclimatized for this building. Each apartment of the house has its own balcony with trees and shrubs.

19. House-cactus, Holland

A luxurious 19-storey residential building is under construction in Rotterdam. It received such an original name because of the similarity with this thorny plant. It houses 98 apartments with superior comfort. The construction is carried out according to the project of the architectural company UCX Architects.

The peculiarity of this house is the use of open terraces-balconies for hanging gardens, located one above the other in a staggered order, screwing upwards in a spiral. This arrangement of terraces allows the sun to illuminate the plants from all directions. The depth of each terrace is at least two meters. Moreover, small pools will also be built into these balconies.

We are used to the fact that we are usually talking about energy efficient houses. And in preparation for the Expo-2020 exhibition in the United Arab Emirates, an entire energy-efficient city will be built. It will be a "smart city" fully self-sufficient in energy and other resources. The project is planned to be implemented near the settlement of Al-Avir in Dubai.

It will become the first of its kind absolutely self-sufficient city in terms of providing residents with all the necessary resources, transport and energy. For this, the energy efficient city will be equipped with solar panels to the maximum, which will be placed on the roofs of almost all residential and commercial buildings. In addition, the city will independently process 40,000 cubic meters of wastewater. The area of this super complex will be 14,000 hectares, and the residential area itself will be built in the shape of a desert flower. Surrounded by a belt of green spaces, the smart city will be able to accommodate 160,000 residents.

"Construction Rules", No. 43 /1, May 2014

The copyright holder of all materials on the site is Construction Rules LLC. Full or partial reproduction of materials in any sources is prohibited.

Every year, hundreds of people across the country apply wallpaper, build houses, lay floors and change plumbing. They are not able to do most of these works on their own, as a result of which they invite masters. If you look at the scale, the idea of investing your money in the construction business seems very attractive. The construction business is very profitable, but a rather difficult enterprise to implement, requiring maximum professionalism and dedication, because clients trust only the best. How to start a construction business, how to act to achieve its maximum efficiency - read below.

Business characteristics

Before starting a construction business from scratch, it is necessary to clearly outline the scope of its responsibilities, goals and means.

In the first place, such companies usually have a profit, sufficient to cover and cover the costs. In addition, the firm provides the government with a service, providing the population with jobs, training, and sometimes even accommodation. This leads to a decrease in the unemployment rate and an increase in the number of highly qualified specialists in the construction business.

A high percentage of the company's payback is ensured through a wide range of services. Before starting a construction business, outline the circle of your opportunities.

It can be:

Interior and exterior design services;
Decoration or cosmetic repair services;
Floor laying;
Wallpaper gluing and preparatory work;
Development of architectural projects and drawings;
Plumbing installation;
Electrician work and other services.

In addition to direct repair work, you can conduct free consultations, cost estimates, draw up individual schedules that are convenient for the client.

The work usually takes several stages:

Negotiations with a potential employer;
Departure to the site for inspection and measurements of the apartment;
Budgeting;
Signing contracts;
Purchase of materials;
Directly repair.

Legal registration

When a rough outline of the goals and characteristics of the company is made, it's time to move on to calculating funds. How to open a construction business from scratch, without calculating financial investments and not distributing them according to points? No way.

If opening a construction company is a done deal, go ahead and register.

What should be done?

Come up with a name for the company;
Find a room (the office of the company will be located at this address);
The presence of the authorized capital;
The presence of founders;
Permission to carry out certain types of construction activities (design of houses, construction, engineering work).
A number of documents will also be required, for example, copies of passports, the address of the legal entity, information on the authorized capital and functions of the company. To avoid paperwork, you can hire lawyers who will complete all the paperwork and charge you up to $ 100. You can also purchase a ready-made company with a package of documents.
In addition, you need to join a self-regulatory organization, since without membership in this body, any type of construction work other than cosmetic repairs is prohibited at the legislative level.

Start-up capital

Search for premises

Most often, construction firms work "on the road", that is, employees do not sit in the office, but come directly to the place of work. The only space you need is an office. There will be meetings with clients, calculation of employees. Accounting, documentation, electronic databases, drawings, estimates will also be stored there. Renting an office will cost an entrepreneur 5-10 thousand dollars.

A little tip: don't start a construction business in a capital or big city. The competition in this business is very high and even a well-structured and very responsible company will find it difficult to squeeze into this market.

Purchase or rental of equipment

The purchase of equipment may seem to you the most expensive item in a business plan. How to start a construction business if you do not have cranes, excavators and other necessary and useful things? It is quite possible, because they are not always required. In order not to buy too much, use leasing (simply renting equipment). Instead of purchasing a crane, you can rent it for a specific type of work and then return it when it is no longer needed. And in the same way, you can rent out your equipment if you purchased it and it is idle.

Staff

By the time the company starts working, almost everything is ready. But before starting a construction business, you need to recruit a team. The selection of labor resources requires a responsible approach: there is always a chance to run into irresponsible people. It is best to take one representative of all types of work performed by the company and entrust these people with the collection of work teams.

You will need the following employees:

Director;
Designer;
Driver;
Security guard;
Specialized workers in construction and repair;
Architect and designer;
Programmer;
Accountant;
Lawyers and economists.

Salaries for employees are negotiable. On average, they are around $ 400 and up.

Advertising

A company can be promoted not only by a booklet or a billboard. You promote yourself and achieve fame, including through tenders, interaction with the state and other companies. Building strong partnerships will have a great impact on your status and fame. Well, the standard advertising measures - videos on TV and on the Internet, a website, brochures, promotions. The main thing is to use every opportunity.

In general, the construction business is highly competitive, complex to organize, and costly. It is advisable to start if you have already worked in any other types of business. The best advice on how to develop a construction business would be to organize its work in several directions at once.

Good day. My name is Egor Kirichenko, I am from the Krasnodar Territory. For the last ten years I have been building houses for sale. I started working alone, and each time I found a new team for construction. At the moment, I organized a company (LLC), there is a permanent staff, its own designers and builders. This approach allows you to quickly build houses and hand over the finished building "turnkey" to the customer.

Business parameters:

initial costs - from 300 thousand rubles;
number of employees - 20 people;
several offices in the area;
monthly income (depends on the volume of orders) - from two million rubles.

How to start a business building houses for sale?

Building houses is one of the most promising and profitable types of business. This does not require proof - it is enough to estimate the demand for housing in large cities and beyond. At the same time, both residents of the Russian Federation and foreign citizens act as buyers.

To quickly get a business on its feet and make a profit, proceed in the following order:

1. Develop a unified concept which will be observed in the future. There are several important points here - consider the importance of all communications, the availability of the Internet and telephone communications.

The area of a good plot is up to 15 acres, an entrance is required, the presence of a pond (rivers, lakes), as well as forests nearby. The participation of the client in the development of the project is very desirable - he can amend the issues of decoration, planning of structures, the shape of the house, and so on.

2. Decide how you will work- independently or with the help of an investor. Please note that the purchase of a land plot, the purchase of building materials and the remuneration of workers require significant costs.

A good option is to open a construction company and carry out construction after receiving an advance payment from the customer. In this case, you can quickly solve financial problems and speed up the construction process. On the other hand, the risks increase, because you have financial obligations to the client.

3. Choose an area for development. We have already partially mentioned a number of criteria, but this is not all.

Pay special attention to the infrastructure around the facility, proximity to the city, the availability of transport, the environmental component (is there any harmful production nearby), the possibility of building additional facilities, and so on.

4. Decide on the type of building.

There are several options here. The most popular is the cottage.

Many people dream of such a house, who want to get out of the city "hive".

As a rule, a cottage has two floors and is intended for one family. Near the house there must be a plot of five acres or more.

Town houses are a mixture of a cottage and an ordinary apartment. Their peculiarity is a small number of storeys (1-2 floors) and a separate entrance to each apartment. You can build town houses not only outside the city, but also within the metropolis.

The best material for construction is red brick, but aerated concrete or wood can be used. According to experts, in a few years, such buildings will completely replace cottages. Their advantage is convenience and lower price.

5. Buy a site- one of the most important stages, which will require certain approvals and, of course, costs. After choosing a site, a whole range of activities is carried out.

To begin with, sketches and a general construction plan are developed. This work takes into account everything, from the type of foundation to the arrangement of the area around. A topographic survey is required.

Next is the most laborious stage. You need to approve the construction plan, agree on controversial issues and get a permit to build a house. Once all the issues are resolved, you can start building.

The total costs at this stage can range from 300,000 rubles.

6. Hire qualified builders with good work experience. To build a house, you will need specialists in foundation laying, cladding, roof construction, heating and sewerage installation.

You definitely need an electrician who will make the wiring taking into account all the requirements of PTE and PUE. At the initial stage, a hired team will be sufficient, but in the future it is better to have your own personnel on hand.

Payment for labor can be made upon delivery of the object, daily or weekly (by agreement). The average salary of an experienced builder is 1000-1500 rubles per day.

The total cost of salary payments is from 150 thousand rubles per month.

7. Calculate costs(we have already mentioned them above) such as the purchase of land, building materials, payment for design documentation, and so on.

As a rule, about 30-40 thousand rubles are spent on the construction of one "square" of housing. Having built a house with a cost of 3 million rubles, and selling it for 5 million rubles, you can get 2 million in net profit.

What is the best material to use in the home construction business for sale?

I am often asked the question of what is better to build houses from. There are several options here. Brick comes first. Its advantages are reliability, low cost and decent appearance.

If desired, the built house can always be finished to your liking. Moreover, a brick cottage will last much longer and is guaranteed to protect against natural disasters.

The main thing is not to skimp on the thickness of the walls, which should be at least "one and a half brick lengths". According to statistics, almost 50% of houses are built using this material.

The second most popular tree is wood. Today, glued (profiled) beams or rounded logs are becoming more and more popular. The advantage of such houses is the absolute naturalness of the material.

The house literally "breathes", it is filled with the scent of natural wood. The main disadvantage of buildings is their "weakness" for fire. But, despite this, wooden cottages are being built more and more often. You can give preference to the combined option when two types of material are used - brick and wood.

The third option is the construction of buildings from sandwich panels. While such houses are being built very rarely. Their advantages are excellent thermal insulation, inside buildings it is always dry (even without heating).

Over the years, the walls hardly shrink, which for many is the main advantage. In addition, houses made of sandwich panels are quickly erected. Minus - low service life (about 40-45 years).

At the same time, regardless of the material chosen, you can make any type of decoration - brick, natural stone, stucco and so on.

There are many possibilities for decoration - all that remains is to agree on plans with the customer and put them into practice.

What does a business plan for the construction of timber houses look like in terms of cost and profitability?

Against the background of the popularity of wooden houses, you can safely try yourself in this industry. Moreover, several directions are available here.

So, you can build timber frame houses, cottages from rounded logs, log structures (hand-assembled), and buildings from profiled glued beams.

The most budgetary option is timber frame buildings. They are warm, but in terms of environmental friendliness and comfort, of course, they are inferior to their "older brothers". Houses made of rounded logs are 10-15% more expensive, but they are considered the most prestigious. Such cottages are the most popular in Europe.

How to open a construction company

Structures from a bar have a low price and are easy to build. The main disadvantage is the difficulty in warming. Such a house is blown much more strongly than a log building. To reduce heat loss, you have to think over additional thermal insulation at home.

The average price for erecting a wooden cottage from glued beams is from 25 thousand rubles (cubic meter), a house made of profiled beams will cost half the price - about 10-15 thousand rubles per "cube".

The most budgetary option is a house made of rounded logs. Its cost is from 6-8 thousand rubles per "cube".

The total costs for the purchase of all equipment, registration of a license, construction, purchase of tools - from 500 thousand rubles. Business profitability is about 40%.

What is good about the frame house construction business?

Frame construction has always been considered one of the best options. First, such designs are very economical. It will take half the cost to build a house when compared to a standard brick building.

Secondly, frame houses are built much faster. It takes no more than 2-3 months to rebuild the building from the foundation to handover to the new owner. At the same time, you can save on people and technology.

Thirdly, such buildings are particularly durable, so even the worst weather conditions will not damage the reliable structure.

As for the rest of the actions, they are unchanged - finding land, processing documents and licenses, creating a plan, analyzing competitors, hiring personnel, advertising, and so on.

To organize such a business, you need to invest from 600 thousand rubles. The cost of one "cube" of such a house costs about 7-8 thousand rubles. During the year, you can manage to build up to 8-10 pieces.

The average income from one house is about 300-400 thousand rubles. The payback period is 2-3 months.

How profitable is a home construction business idea?

I have already mentioned that the construction of cottages (town houses) is one of the most profitable types of business. With the correct organization of construction work and the successful sale of the building, you can recoup your costs in 2-3 houses and start making a net profit.

The main thing is to understand yourself in the construction industry or to have good specialists at hand.

Construction business for small and medium-sized businesses is a profitable type of activity. The money invested can be quickly recouped, and the initial investment amounts are not too high. But to open a construction company, you need to think through all the stages of the project in advance. How to start a construction business? What features should be considered? How much money do you need to start? Read about this in the article.

Choice of specialization

Competition in the construction market has always been high. Before starting your own company, it is important to decide on the direction of your business. Experts identify several areas in demand in construction:

Private (individual);
Road;
Industrial;
Major repairs, interior decoration of premises for various purposes.

A large construction company will require serious financial investments. As a rule, a budding entrepreneur does not have that kind of money.

If there is not enough money, it is worth starting a construction business with small repairs and decoration of premises, gradually expanding the scope of activities. That is, it is reasonable to choose the fourth direction. The average payback of a construction company allows you to expect that investments will pay off in about a year and a half.

After choosing a construction area, you need to think over the potential range of services provided. In the case of organizing a small construction company for the repair of premises, an approximate list of services looks like this:

Finishing work;
Installation and installation of ceiling structures;
Installation of plumbing, doors, ventilation, air conditioners;
Electric installation work;
Dismantling;
Painting, wallpapering, priming, wall filling;
Welding, facade work.
Furniture assembly.

Important! The best option is to carry out repair work on a turnkey basis.

How to start a construction company from scratch step by step

Having decided what area of construction the company will deal with, the entrepreneur draws up a detailed business plan.

The next steps for starting a construction company from scratch are as follows:

Company registration;
Search for premises;
Staff formation;
Obtaining licenses (if required);
Equipment purchase;
Advertising campaign.

Some activities will require joining a self-regulatory organization (SRO). For example:

construction of buildings with a height of more than 3 floors;
construction of facilities located more than 15 meters underground;
works on the installation of reinforced concrete and metal structures;
device of industrial facilities and gas (oil) industry;
overhaul of railways;
construction of metro, highways, mines;
construction of bridges.

Important! Since 2017, legislative amendments (Federal Law No. 372) have come into force, requiring the admission of SROs for construction companies that conclude contracts worth more than three million rubles. This rule also applies to firms that work with tenders in the field of government orders.

SRO activities, in turn, are regulated by such legislative acts as:

Federal Law No. 190 (Urban Planning Code of the Russian Federation);
Federal Law No. 315 (On Self-Regulatory Organizations);
ФЗ №384 (Technical regulations for the safety of buildings and structures);
ФЗ №384 (On technical regulation)

Organizational and legal foundations of the construction business

In the construction industry, LLC or individual entrepreneur is most often registered. For a start-up company, an individual entrepreneur is suitable.

You can register an individual entrepreneur or LLC on your own or use the services of an outsourcing company. For example, the specialists of which will do this work for free.

It is beneficial to open an LLC for those who plan to move from small and medium-sized construction business to a large one. For this type of activity, additional permits will be required. They can only be obtained if there is a legal entity.

In the process of registering a company with the tax office, the following OKVED codes are indicated:

The taxation system of a company largely depends on the type of services provided. According to OKUN (All-Russian Classifier of Services to the Population), the repair of premises is a household service.

Therefore, a businessman can use such systems of taxation as "simplified" (USN) or "imputed" (UTII). The first system is suitable for companies that make repairs in commercial premises and conclude an agreement with a legal entity. The second is for those who work with individuals.

In addition to the main package of documents, you will need contract forms, a seal, a price list for services and a bank account.

Important! To organize a construction company from scratch that provides interior decoration services, a license is not required

Selection of premises and purchase of equipment

Most of the work is carried out directly on site, so the location of the company is not as important as in other activities. For a mid-level construction company, it is enough to rent a small office in any area of the city. There you can negotiate with clients, sign contracts for the provision of services. Documentation is kept in the same room. Small construction crews can do without an office altogether. but for a reputable firm in the construction business, an office is a must. Otherwise, you will simply not be taken seriously.

The number and type of equipment for the construction team depends on the type of work performed.

Below is a list of the basic tools that you will definitely need to decorate the room.

Staff for the construction brigade

The construction business is fraught with serious production risks, so you will have to pay attention and time to carefully select personnel.

At first, it is better to form two teams that will work at different sites. It is recommended to include in the brigade people of those professions that are indicated in the third edition of the Unified Tariff and Qualification Handbook of Work and Occupations of Workers (ETKS, section "Construction, installation and repair and construction works").

The optimal composition of the brigade:

Brigadier;
Painter-plasterer;
installer;
Tiler;
Veneer;
Electrician;
Locksmith.

The salary of employees of a construction company is piecework, that is, it is calculated based on the total amount of the paid order. If an entrepreneur acts as a team leader, he receives from 50 to 60%, the rest - from 25 to 45%. In another situation, the salary is distributed as follows: the owner of the company - 60%, the foreman - 20%, the rest of the employees - 20%.

Important! The services of an accountant, designer, lawyer and order manager can be outsourced. For accounting, it is better to hire a specialized company with a good reputation, for example. The prices of such a company will be democratic, and the quality of services will be high.

Construction business advertising

An advertising campaign to promote the services of a small construction team has its own specifics. The most effective way for a small company is to post ads and word of mouth. Service advertisements are printed on bright paper and distributed mainly in areas with new buildings.

Advertising on the Internet and in newspapers is a good option to attract the attention of potential customers. It is better to entrust the creation of the company's website to professionals. The key principle of advertising a construction team on the Internet is to regularly update data on the types of services, discounts, and the cost of work.

How much does it cost to open a construction company

It is difficult to estimate the initial cost of the project. It depends on many factors, such as the number of employees, the price of the purchased equipment, and the chosen organizational and legal form of the construction company. On average, it will take 350 to 600 thousand rubles to create a small business in the construction industry.

Approximate calculation of starting points:

* Unforeseen expenses - a cash reserve required for the purchase of additional materials during the repair.

Important! The construction business is associated with constant financial investments. It is worth remembering this when organizing a construction company.

Potential risks

At the preparatory stage of creating a construction business, it is worth calculating possible risks and developing measures to prevent them. External risks are associated with a decrease in the income of the population, an increase in competition, and an unfair attitude of the customer to its obligations. The likelihood of such risks, according to experts, changes annually.

Internal risks include:

lack of staff;
low qualifications of workers;
equipment breakdown;
execution of work under the contract is not on time.

To avoid such situations will allow regular monitoring of the functioning of the company, the ability to attract additional funds and a correct analysis of the construction industry market.

Construction is a very developed industry in which you can invest money in order to generate stable income. In order to organize a profitable business in the construction industry, you first need to decide in which direction it will be most profitable to work. All promising business ideas in construction can be conditionally divided into 3 categories.

Promising directions in the construction industry

In the first place among business ideas in real estate is the construction of apartment buildings. In order for an entrepreneurial project to generate income, at the initial stage of development, you need to competently draw up a business plan that takes into account the competition in this area. You have to be prepared for the fact that you will have to constantly look for customers and suppliers.

The organization of a construction company will require large investments - large capital in the amount of tens of millions. Not having that kind of money, you can open another promising and profitable business - the renovation of apartments and residential buildings. With a competent organization of the business, you will be able to ensure yourself a stable income.

There are other business ideas in the construction industry that do not require a multi-million dollar investment of capital. A profitable industry is the construction of country houses and cottages outside the city, as they are in constant demand.

The third profitable area is the construction of real estate for commercial purposes and its lease. Rest homes, hotels, supermarkets and large shopping and entertainment complexes can become objects of construction. With an initial capital of about five hundred thousand rubles, you should think about organizing a small business. Examples are such types of entrepreneurship as the installation of metal mesh fences, the production of eurofences.

The best ideas in the construction business

Due to the fact that trade in Russia is growing and developing, new hangars and production facilities are required. On the construction of hangars, you can make a profitable construction business that does not require large investments. It is also profitable to invest in the construction of buildings for a car service, the production of collapsible houses, eurofences and buildings from OSB.

Business in the field of design and architecture is another source of good profit. Architects and designers need to pay attention to promising ideas that require creative solutions:

construction of gazebos and garden houses;
construction of floating hotels and restaurants;
production of 3D-decor from polystyrene;
conversion of containers into residential houses for summer cottages.

With a small start-up capital, it is profitable to register an enterprise that will install drainage systems, hinged ventilated facades for office center buildings, and build swimming pools for summer cottages and country houses.
