This is confirmed by paragraph 35 of the Rules for the maintenance of common property in an apartment building, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated August 13, 2006 No. 491.

Differences from major repairs

Current and major repairs of apartment buildings are similar in essence. This is a specific list of measures aimed at maintaining the building in the form in which it was intended during design.

These works differ according to several criteria:

  1. By frequency. Major renovation carried out once every few decades, in accordance with operating standards. Some maintenance operations are carried out every year.
  2. Tasks. Major repairs aimed at restoring integrity load-bearing structures, replacement of obsolete communications. The purpose of routine repairs is to eliminate minor faults and prevent excessive wear.
  3. Budget. Residents of the house constantly deduct a certain amount for major repairs. And after accumulating the required amount, the work can be carried out.
  4. Reasons for carrying out. Major repairs are carried out in accordance with established standards for each model of apartment building. Current repairs is done based on the results of current observations of specialists. Major repairs are more aimed at the planned replacement of elements. So, as part of this event, water supply pipes will be replaced, since their service life has expired. Even if they are in satisfactory condition.

List of works that can be included additionally

Owners of common property, that is, apartment owners, at a general meeting can agree on any additional repairs. The management company will cope with any work if the budget is approved. So, if residents want to update the facade or restore sidewalks, then finding a contractor will not be difficult.

Types of work that are never carried out as part of routine repairs

  2. Homeowners' association, housing cooperative or other cooperative that was created to manage common property. In this case, repairs can be carried out either by specially hired workers or by a contractor.
  3. Management company. Maintenance of an apartment building is most often carried out by a special organization, which has the necessary experience and staff with appropriate qualifications.

hot water,

cold water,

wastewater disposal,

Payment for the volume of utility resources will be limited by the utility service standard for one-room service, which is established for each category of residential buildings.

Can I request additional services?

If the owners have additional requests for the implementation of work on the current maintenance and repair of common property, for example, landscaping entrances and further care of plants or installing video surveillance, the housing company has the right to refuse the owners this request. The service organization is not obliged to perform actions that are not included in the list of repairs and maintenance of housing. However, residents can hold a meeting where they invite representatives of the management company to undertake certain actions and carry them out as usual, which will require a separate fee.

If the majority of residents support this idea, then they can propose to the management organization to draw up an additional agreement, indicating special terms of cooperation and the amount of payment. If the owners have additional wishes from the moment they moved into the house, which they discussed at a general meeting when choosing a method of managing the house, these conditions can be approved initially in the agreement between the owners and the housing company.

Tariff for maintenance and repairs

The amount of payment for the maintenance and current repairs of residential premises in an apartment building is determined taking into account the proposals of the management organization and is approved for a period of at least 1 year.

When preparing proposals for a list of works and services for a specific apartment building, the housing organization must calculate the estimated cost of the work, which will determine the amount of payment for repairs and maintenance of residential premises for this building. This is confirmed by paragraph 35 of the Rules for the maintenance of common property in an apartment building, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated August 13, 2006 No. 491. In connection with the adoption of this resolution, a letter from the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation dated October 12, 2006 was also issued, which you can read.

Since 2017, the amount for maintenance and repairs in the receipt is calculated:

Rate- tariff for maintenance and repair of housing, approved by the local administration;

Sq- area of ​​the apartment;

N- standard resource consumption established by the local government;

Smop- area of ​​common areas;

Stotal- total area of ​​residential and non-residential premises;

(N*Smop* Sq/Stotal)- ONE.

Let's look at an example

Apartment with a total area of ​​51 sq.m. located on the second floor of a nine-story residential building with all amenities, an elevator and a garbage chute in the Moscow region. The tariff for housing maintenance and repair is 23.60 rubles. Standards have been established for general house needs for:

hot water 0.0124 cubic meters;

cold water 0.0220 cubic meters;

electricity 1.54 kW/h.

The area of ​​common areas is 6000 sq.m. The total area of ​​the house is 18,000 sq. m.

We get:

Calculation of services for maintenance and repairs in receipts, as a rule, is carried out using software that takes into account all current regulations of the housing and communal services industry.

Is it possible not to pay for maintenance and repairs?

According to Article 158 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, premises owners are obliged to pay the costs of maintaining and repairing common property in an apartment building.

It is possible to refuse some services. In this case, the refusal must be agreed upon with representatives of the management company or HOA, which is done by making a decision at a general building meeting. The easiest way is to refuse services associated with a separate entrance. For example, cleaning the landing can be done on your own if the residents of the entrance agree to this and stop paying for these services. Residents can take part in a collective vote on this issue using their personal accounts on the Housing and Public Utilities Website (
