Arrangement of a garage from an old kitchen. Household projects with a bath

This page of the site presents a modest and calm project of a large garage with utility block... The dark facades somewhat conceal the large dimensions of the building, while the light straw brick inserts complement the harmonious style. A solid facing brick finish is a good choice for wealthy suburban areas, especially if the main residential building is built in the same vein. The garage with a utility block has a simple gable roof with a roof made of metal or composite tiles. Wide gates measuring 5 by 2.3 meters make it possible for two passenger cars... The hozblok in the plan has a size of 2.9 x 7.7 meters - this is a full-fledged room that can be used for storing garden equipment or equipped in a large workshop, or a warehouse for building materials.

For the construction of a garage with a utility block, a single slab foundation with perimeter ribs has been designed. A basement part, separated by waterproofing, is being built under the walls. Next comes the masonry of blocks, reinforced with reinforced concrete structures at the top. An interesting difference between this garage project is the need to cover a wide span with a roof. To solve this problem in the design process, a solution was chosen that involves the manufacture of wooden trusses from ordinary boards that are sold in any construction market. The detailing of the garage project is made at a level that allows even unskilled workers to carry out construction work - each element and node is drawn in three-dimensional form, with the necessary explanations for the types of fasteners, the technological sequence of work and other construction nuances.

When building a land plot, its owner has to take care not only of the main structure - the house, but also to provide convenient conditions for storing the car. If the garage is not built into the basement, or is not attached to the side wall of the house, then it will have to be built separately.

The program is free, you can use it online and eventually get the result that you see in the picture below. Read about how to use this program and make your own project with it in the article. You can see what happened with us in the picture below.

The project in this case will contain a sketch of a building for a summer residence or a private house, as well as its plan, although in this case you can limit yourself to indicating the overall dimensions of the structure and the purpose of each room. For such a project, it will be relatively easy to prepare a drawing. The drawing is done using another program called AutoCAD (its free version). In the drawing, we indicate the exact dimensions of each element of the structure, and also indicate what material these elements consist of and how much it will be required.

Important! The result of the construction will depend on the accuracy of the drawing, so draw it using modern means, and not a pencil and a ruler.

Here is an example of a drawing that shows in detail a garage, a shed and outbuildings, for a summer cottage or a private house this is an excellent solution. A table is attached to the drawing. In it, you can write down all the materials that will be required for the implementation of the project. This option for placing buildings (garage, shed and outbuildings) has one drawback - fire safety. Due to the combination of structures into one building, in the event of a fire, everything will suffer at once. The rest of the building has some advantages.

Preparation for construction

When preparing for a construction site, it is necessary to purchase the necessary material and assemble a tool. In this case, we must figure out the materials at the stage of drawing the drawing, however, in order to better structure the publication, we decided to take this issue out and consider it as a separate paragraph. In our case, we built a garage and utility block from foam blocks and sheathed it with siding, and the supports for the canopy and the roof frame are wooden. So, what materials are needed to build a garage with a shed and a utility block for a summer cottage or a private house?

1. Foam blocks 200х300х600 mm - 432 pcs. or 16 m 3, for those who find it more convenient to measure in cubes.
2. Gray metal siding sheets 25x400 cm - 80 pcs. + corner and plastic profile.
3. Mineral wool (slab) 50x100 cm for garage insulation - 162 pcs.
4. Wooden bar 50x50 mm, length 6 m - 20 pcs., Bar 40x40 mm, length 6 m - 10 pcs., Board 40x100, length 2.5 m - 25 pcs.
5. Standard wooden doors 5 pcs., Plastic windows for outbuildings 50x50 mm and automatic garage doors.
6. Metal tiles for the roof 1100x35 mm - 210 pcs., Waterproofing material and profile for metal tiles.
7. 18 meters of plastic sewer pipe, from which we will make a drain.
8. 48 bags of cement, 40 bags of sand for the foundation, platform and laying of foam blocks.
9. You will also need fasteners and white waterproof paint for outdoor work, electrical wiring, an electrical panel, machines, sockets.
10. Choose and calculate the material for interior decoration yourself. We did not provide for the interior decoration for such a structure at all and did not do it for reasons of financial savings.

Now let's talk about the tools about the materials that will be required to implement the project. In this case, it is quite possible to get by with the usual tools that are available in any pantry of a good owner, especially if all the material has been prepared and processed in advance. We will need:

• hand saw;
• drill;
• hacksaw for wood;
• screwdriver;
• chisel;
• Master OK;
• trough;
• household concrete mixer;
• bucket, shovel;
• brush;
• ruler, tape measure, building level, pencil;
• Bulgarian.

Implementation of the project

A garage for a summer cottage or a private house with a shed and a utility block can be built with your own hands in a few days. If there is a good project, calculation of materials, drawing, then everything will be much easier to implement. We start the work by choosing a place for the building. In an amicable way, this should have been done at the stage when the project was being developed, although the issue is not fundamental. Next, you need to clear and level the construction site and you can start.

1. We install the rags, stretch the strings and define the boundaries of the structure.
2. We fill in the foundation according to the drawing.
3. We lay out the walls of the garage and outbuildings from foam concrete blocks.

Note! For such work, it is better to invite an experienced bricklayer, although it is much easier to lay foam blocks than bricks.

1. We install 3 vertical supports for the canopy. To do this, we dig into the ground and concreting a 50x50 bar.
2. We lay a transverse support beam between the vertical supports.
3. We put a 50x50 timber across the walls of the garage and outbuildings, this will be the basis for the roof.
4. We cut the timber 50x50 on one side at an angle of 30 0, and on the other 60 0.
5. We connect the trimmed timber with the transverse "house", you get a triangular truss in the amount of 10 pieces.
6. For the run, take a 40 mm board and sew it across the trusses.
7. Concreting the area around the buildings and inside.
8. We assemble the roof from metal tiles, install the drainage gutters.
9. We insert windows and doors into the garage and outbuildings. If you know how, do it yourself, if not, invite specialists.
10. We paint canopy supports, doors and other elements with white paint.
11. We install automatic gates in a garage for a summer cottage or a private house.
12. We sheathe the walls and ends of the roof with metal siding. Insert and fasten the moldings and profile.

Review of projects of similar structures

Of course, the construction of a garage with a shed and an outbuilding could be discussed in more detail with all the nuances, but for this, perhaps, one publication will not be enough. We'll have to write separately about the features of laying foam concrete blocks, separately about the roof, separately about the installation of garage doors, we will certainly do this, but within the framework of separate articles. Now we propose to briefly discuss several ready-made projects of such specific structures as garages with outbuildings for summer cottages and a private house, with and without sheds.

The picture above shows a project of a carport with outbuildings. There is no garage in this case, which greatly simplifies the structure of the building. The frame of the combined building for the summer cottage is made of carved wooden beams, the roof is covered with metal tiles, and the walls and end of the roof are finished with metal siding. A very convenient structure for operation in the warm season.

And this is a more serious, solid garage under a capital roof with a spacious outbuilding. Closed buildings are located with the letter "G", so that the canopy is protected from wind and slanting rain on both sides. The buildings were erected from foam concrete blocks and finished with decorative bricks, the foundation is faced with artificial stone. The gable roof is made of thick beams and covered with metal tiles.

In the following image, you see a blueprint for a two-car garage with adjacent outbuildings. The building is suitable for both summer cottages and private houses. There is a separate entrance to the side of the garage and a separate entrance to the utility block. The garage does not have an internal partition, but the gates are installed for each car separately, although you can put one large one.

Next, we will consider the simplest wooden carport for vehicles with outbuildings. This is a relatively cheap project that does not require expensive materials and finishes. It is erected entirely from timber and boards. The roof structure seems to us not too successful, the slope is not steep enough, otherwise quite passable summer cottages in a hurry.

Project and drawing of a garage with a utility block and a shed

The main thing is to clearly verify the optimal dimensions and thickness of the walls. On the one hand, the room should be spacious enough to be comfortable to stay in and work in. On the other hand, it should not take up too much space on the land plot. The effectiveness of thermal insulation depends on the thickness of the walls. That is, how quickly the room will freeze through in winter.

An interesting trend in Moscow: garage cooperatives are turning into residential areas. The owners rent out their boxes as apartments for rent to nonresidents.
And today I will tell you and show you the process of building one garage house, in which they will live for 5 years.

Preamble. In early spring 2006, I came to work in Moscow. Like others who came in large numbers, he began with a rented apartment. By 2008, the prices and condition of this housing, as well as the "services" of realtors, I was pretty much fed up ... fed up. I started looking for an alternative. I will not bore the reader with a description of all the options and factors considered and calculated by me, but by the fall of 2008, the idea was formed in final form: - buy the most cheap garage, in the place closest to work and comfortable for living, - to design and build housing (the project will depend on the specific conditions of the construction site), - the costs should be minimal (since it is unreasonable to make large investments in an experimental project) and phased (since it is unreasonable to spend the entire budget at once), - the planned budget of the project is about 300 thousand rubles. Yes, that's right - approximately the annual cost of renting housing in Moscow.

With the choice of a construction site, everything is simple. I looked through all the advertisements for the sale of garages, chose the cheapest options, examined them (immediately with an eye to the possibility of restructuring into housing), carried out reconnaissance of the area and polled the aborigines (for the presence of other interesting options, nature of the environment, electrical connection possibilities, demolition prospects, etc.). As a result, on September 27, 2008, a metal garage was selected and purchased for only 45,000 rubles, 10 minutes walk from the metro, in a prestigious area of ​​the capital, 9 km away. from work and only 10 km. from the Kremlin. One of the local inhabitants was spinning at the gate, waiting for the "spacer".

Construction was carried out on weekends, on their own(1 human). An excellent warm-up after a week of office work at the computer! So the advantages of the project can be attributed to the savings on visiting the gym. In the active phase of construction, the phrase was relevant to me: "Oh-oh-oh, finally Monday !!!" We disassemble (and in some places we just break) the old garage. We carefully store the released metal next to it - it will still be useful to us.

Back view

Clearing a construction site for a new building ...

And level the ground.

We are importing KAMAZ of sand ...

And align the sand cushion under the design mark.

Oh, I am already describing the construction progress, but I forgot to acquaint the curious reader with the project. So what am I building here? And I am building, no less than a two-story modular cottage, with completely autonomous life support systems. Two-story - understandable. Modular - consisting of modules that can be quickly and easily relocated. After all, at that time I did not know all the risks of the project, so I preferred to have a backup option in case, say, the demolition of garages, problems with the environment, etc. There would be problems - I would load the modules with a crane into two trucks and move to another site. Fully autonomous life support systems mean complete freedom from all centralized communications and "bindings" to a specific place, using only its own and imported resources and, therefore, owing nothing to anyone. My project was flawless, including legally: the site was allocated to me as a member of the garage cooperative (which is documented), I will install on it, without a foundation, on the ground, two modules, which are essentially steel cubes (this is the permitted use of the site). I have documents for the cubes and their contents. These cubes cannot be covered by any laws regarding real estate or housing (since they are simply not one or the other). Thus, to the question of the legality of living in the garage, I answer - no laws have been violated, no one lives in the garage, and no one has the right in any way to restrict the owner of the iron cube, in his right to be inside this cube or to store various objects and liquids in it ... Except for those expressly prohibited by law - such as weapons, drugs, explosives, etc. That is, the complete autonomy of life support systems is also a factor in the legality of placing such a structure on a site that is not equipped with either water supply or sewerage. However, for 5 years, no one made any claims to me, did not ask any questions, did not check the legality of my residence. But nevertheless, I was ready for any surprises. Probably, the reader has already guessed that with such a serious approach to business and careful consideration of all the details, the project was doomed to success? Yes, that's right. But a little later.

In the meantime, the future successful Muscovite poses after a hard day of work on throwing sand with a shovel and leveling it, against the backdrop of a future den of luxury and comfort. I asked to take a picture of a passing pedestrian. He hid his face - why do I need extra popularity?

On the leveled sand we lay sheets of metal from the roof of the dismantled garage. The result is a perfectly horizontal platform with a hard (steel!) Coating. The first module can be installed. Surprise! In addition to a detailed PHOTO report, I also have a detailed financial report and timing. How else? An investment project is not a horseradish! An accurate assessment of its economic performance is required. Thus, reader, very soon you will receive an accurate and comprehensive answer to the question "How to build yourself a house in Moscow for 300 thousand rubles?" housing issue", at least since the heyday of the author of the quoted phrase. Here is the chronology and costs at the time the site is ready (I apologize for the destruction of formatting when transferring data from Excel): 09/27/2008 Garage purchase 45,000 Entry fee to GSK, payment for 2008 2,000 04.10 .2008 Flashlight, batteries 97 04.10.2008 Ax 156 05.10.2008 Bayonet shovel 160 11.10.2008 Crowbar, shovel shovel, boots, mittens, plumb line, bucket. 900 23.10.2008 Galvanized profiles 3 m. 3 pcs. 420 Spirit level 1.5 m. 550 Shears for metal 300 Plumb line 200 10/25/2008 Padlock 78 Open pit sand 8 m3 6,000 Total, as of October 25, 2008 55,861 rubles were invested.

We brought and are assembling the first module.

And here it is - a standard 20-foot container, 6x2.5x2.5 meters, sealed, with a sealed door, capable of withstanding a multi-ton load from above and a multi-point storm.

Beauty. We do the cleaning inside, lay cardboard on the floor ...

Now there is a place to put tools, building materials, overalls! There is where to change, shelter from the rain or relax. My own premises in Moscow! Hooray! Hooray! Hooray! Let's count, dear moles. © 26.10.2008 20-foot container. 38 000 Loading and unloading, transportation of the container 9 600 Transportation of the container according to GSK 100 01.11.2008 Water canister 10 liters. 3 pieces 270 Water canister 20 liters 159 Mop 61 Terry towel 2 pieces 34 Gloves with latex 2 pairs 32 Rubber gloves 32 Respirator U-2K 22 Garbage bags 60 Broom 49 Folding chair 300 02.11.2008 Marble transportation 50 Payment for garbage collection 200 03.11 .2008 Galvanized 2 m2 thick. 0.45 mm. 400 Bolts 15 pcs. 100 Hacksaw for wood 200 Total costs for 1 module - 49 669 rubles.

We sew up galvanized gaps between the neighboring garage and my garage, lay out the area in front of the gate with marble (found in the dump, of which there are plenty of them near the territory). At the site of the future main entrance, there is still a steel panel from the old garage, supported by a rusty barrel.

Assembling the back wall using the parts of the old garage. By the way, the exit to the backyard is ready - the gate in the gate from the old garage is quite functional. And the former gates themselves are now just part of the wall.

Top view of the fenced-in area. My construction site is now 7 x 3.5 meters.

We are taking the second module.

Installed. With a cantilever ledge from the facade - both an increase in area and a canopy over the gate.

So, the second module is a factory-assembled block-container BK-00, external dimensions: width 2.45 m, length 5.85 m, height 2.45, supporting frame - welded metal, frame - wooden, roof - flat welded from sheet 0, 8mm, outer sheathing - galvanized corrugated board С10-40-1150, interior decoration – plastic panels, wooden floor, window with bars, door. We install it on the gaskets, sawn from the board, foaming the joint of the modules.

Costs: 11/15/2008 Boards 25 320 Nails 180 Hinged lock 147 11/23/2008 Wadded jacket 277 11/29/2008 Residential block container 68,500 11/30/2008 Winter assembly foam 2 cylinders 220 12/06/2008 Galvanized 3.125 m2 thick. 0.5 mm. 650 Self-tapping screws 800 gr. 120 07.12.2008 Transportation, installation of a block container 9 500 Transportation of a container by GSK 100 Total, costs for 2 module - 80,014 rubles. The total construction budget by 07.12.2008 amounted to 186 thousand rubles. Ok, it looks like we will meet the planned budget! By the way, as a tip: Never buy READY block containers. The quality of their workmanship, and especially the insulation, is full of zvizdets! I had to remove the cladding and practically re-lay the heat and wind insulation. To a crooked position, IN PLACES, 5 cm. foam, added 5 cm. layer ISOVER 11. As a result, the total thickness of the insulation became 100 mm and all gaps were eliminated. The result is the "Arctic" modification of the block container! In general, it was necessary to buy only a frame with an external plasterboard, insulate it yourself, lay the floor and make the wall and ceiling cladding made of gypsum board and wallpaper. In terms of price, in the end, it would have turned out almost the same, but in terms of quality - incomparably better. So, the core of the structure is ready, the fate of the project now depends only on the creation of reliable and autonomous life support systems. The issue with the heating system was solved unexpectedly simply - it turns out that the European bourgeoisie have long, and on an industrial scale, been producing an ideal solution to the problem of autonomous heating of small buildings - a gas convector. Who cares about the technical details - google yourself, but to be honest - they shocked me!

This convector + propane tank = reliable, stable, comfortable heat in any shed for mere pennies. Piezo ignition, thermostat, burner extinguishing protection. Air intake and exhaust of combustion products - outside, through a coaxial pipe, which is also a heat exchanger that heats the incoming air with the heat of the exhaust gases (+ 10% to efficiency). The combustion chamber is completely isolated from the room, so even in the worst (almost unbelievable) case, the gas will not penetrate into the room, but go out through the pipe and dissipate. I applaud the bourgeois engineers and manufacturers, and buy this miracle of engineering for 10,000 rubles. Isn't he beautiful?

We install, strictly following the instructions and showing our own ingenuity and ingenuity. By the way, as it turned out, sheathing (even a plastic one!) Wall with galvanizing was unnecessary. This device does not heat up the wall on which it hangs at all. I put a galvanized sheet under it, misunderstanding the word "CONVECTOR" in its name. Note: Wikipedia kindly informs us that "A CONVECTOR is a heating device in which heat from a heat carrier or a heating element is transferred to a heated room by CONVECTION. Natural convection, in which warm air, already heated by contact with a heat carrier or heating element, rises upward, and its the place is occupied by the colder air of the room, reinforced by the design of the convector ". I get up and once again applaud the bourgeois engineers!

And finally, the long-awaited moment! Turning the knob, clicking the piezo ignition button - through the viewing window we observe how a blue light flashed above the burner.

The heat exchanger has begun to heat up (black housing with a viewing window). Now it is scorching hot. I put in place a beautiful white case - a stream of warm air begins to flow through its holes. After about half an hour, it gets hot in my sweatshirt and I undress. After another half hour, the room temperature reaches room temperature.

Windscreen at the end of the coaxial pipe of the convector (Coaxial means an exhaust pipe is located in the center of the air intake pipe).

On the street - minus 10. The heating system is completely ready and tested. I no longer have to change clothes in the cold in wet, frozen overalls. December 27, 2008. New Year is coming soon. I am leaving for my homeland for the Christmas holidays, I will continue my Moscow construction after my return. All a Happy New Year! Good luck to us in 2009!

January 2009. I am laying linoleum. Install (lay out) furniture

Pumping up the furniture. Making the bed. Judging by the size of the bed, I am an optimist and I am sure that Muscovites will appreciate the comfort of my home and my own merits and will be frequent guests (at least) or roommates (ideally) here. As it says there: "A man's self-esteem can be judged by the number of condoms he has taken on a date. Even if this date is the first."

The heating is on, the bed is available. I make a test night. Alone. In a steel box, in the middle of a strange, deserted area filled with assorted garages. Fine. During the night, the house warmed up well, in the morning it was warm and cozy. I have breakfast with cookies and water from a bottle. If you want hot tea, you urgently need to get a stove. But it's not a problem. The most critical issue for the project is on the agenda - autonomous water supply and sewerage, workable shower and sink. If this issue cannot be resolved, this is not a residential cottage, but just a heated barn. The issue with the sink is easy to solve - I use the time-tested, "village" system. It should be noted that I was born and raised in a village, so I do not experience a culture shock at the sight of a washstand. The advantages of the washstand are its simplicity and super-efficiency in water consumption. After all, for the first 17 years of my life I only used the washstand, millions of Russian villagers and summer residents still use them, and no one complains. With a shower, the question is more complicated. I am an office worker - a daily shower, shaving and a clean shirt are mandatory for me. I know that a person with short hair, 10 liters of warm water is enough for washing. In order to properly wash with such an amount of water, it is necessary that its thin stream flows from above and can be quickly adjusted and overlapped. A compact shower stall with a reservoir of warm water on top and a faucet looms. Storage electric water heater for the ceiling? Not an option - you cannot rely on an uninterrupted power supply, a low ceiling and a high shower tray do not leave space for a water heater, in addition, you need to ensure that the water can be easily drained from the system. To be able to completely turn off the heating in winter, for periods of my long absence. I choose a simpler, ultra-reliable and non-volatile option: the water is heated to the desired temperature in a 15-liter enamelled tank on a gas stove (readiness time 15-20 minutes), then pumped into a compact supply tank above the shower stall, from where it is consumed by gravity as needed. Ended - an additional portion is pumped from the tank. So, a week per person will need 60-70 liters of tap water and about 10 liters of drinking water (I have breakfast and lunch at work, in the evenings only tea. Well, on weekends, soup) Thus, to ensure water supply, I have to buy 2 five-liter bottles of drinking water in Ashan (for 100 rubles) and fill 2 twenty-liter canisters and 3 ten-liter cans with tap water free of charge. Bullshit question - in the nearest shopping center I load the cans into the cart, fill it with water from any water tap I find and move the cart to the car. I overload the canisters into the trunk, then I transfer the cans from the trunk to the house for 15 meters. A little physical activity is very beneficial for office plankton! You can also fill up with water at work, or with friends, but anywhere. One "BUT", the car becomes part of the water supply system (and gas supply - too), its loss for a long time is very critical - you will have to bring gas and water by taxi.

I buy a shower stall and start assembling it. The pallet and walls are assembled.

Other components (sink, washstand, gas stove)

We sculpt "from that" a consumable reservoir with a tap. We connect the components with hoses.

The "heart" of the system is the dacha treadmill shower. Its energy independence and the highest technical and economic characteristics make it the undisputed leader among all other possible pump options. Pumping 10 liters of water is only 20 times (without being distracted from washing) to massage elastic red "boobs" with your heels (which for a man, you must admit, is not at all difficult, but rather pleasant :)

Washstand, sink, gas stove are ready. The hose hanging behind the washstand is connected to the pump. You need to lower its end into a tank of warm water, which is on the tile. And you can go to the shower.

You ask: "What about the washing?" I answer: "As long as there are self-service laundries in Moscow, it is easier to go and wash in rented washing machines than to build an autonomous one and bring water for it" 200 rubles is 1 wash in an 8 kg machine. linen. I just bought 30 shirts and 30 pairs of socks and only did it once a month. Loaded 3 cars at the same time. In total, the cost of washing was approximately 600 rubles per month. I watched TV a little while waiting for the wash to finish. He put the damp, washed linen in bags and took them home. I hung it up, completely opened the ventilation and added the temperature with the heater thermostat. After a few hours, the laundry was dry. Imagine the amount of moisture evaporated from SUCH volume of laundry and estimate the power reserve of the heater and ventilation system. In the photo - about a fifth of the usual washing volume is being dried.

Sewerage. Initially - in cans. From the washstand: in winter - to the 10-liter under the sink,

In summer - in a 30-liter shower canister, standing outside.

Why not the same place in winter? A one-time powerful discharge of warm water comes from the shower and the pipe does not freeze - all the water flows out of it before the heated pipe freezes. At the washstand, the drain is sluggish - the pipes will not warm up and the water in them will gradually freeze. As I already wrote above, draining the sewer into canisters allows me to declare about the autonomy of the building and the absence of its impact on the surrounding area. In the event of any attempts to claim me, I could demonstrate how to twist the sewer cans with plugs, load them into a car and take them out for disposal in an unknown direction. However, since no claims were made, and soapy water does not belong to highly toxic waste, there were no problems with its disposal on the contaminated territory of the garage cooperative. About a couple of times a week (and only in winter), you need to empty the washbasin canister. Once every 2 days (in summer) - shower canister. In winter, instead of a canister, a plastic bucket is placed and an ice piece is deposited daily in the form of this bucket with a kick on its bottom, in the nearest snowdrift. It will melt in the spring. For cheetoplugs who want to shout about "Dirty Moscow", I recommend strolling through the garages and admiring the puddles of engine oil, dumps of oil canisters, waste filters, bottles, bags, corpses of stray dogs (and their future followers, who are also not engaged in cleaning territory), etc. This is really a problem. And given that trash containers are scattered everywhere, the reason for this is the banal laziness and indifference of the aborigines. Once again, the design of my building provides for the removal and disposal of waste. Of course, haha, I took out the liquid waste and handed it over to a specialized company for disposal. If necessary, I will even present supporting documents. Law and order come first! So, the main life support systems are ready (in addition to those described, there is also a ventilation system and later there will be an air conditioner). I will not describe the toilet, since I do not see any problems with its device. There are dozens of ready-made solutions- from elementary plastic bottle and buckets, to dry closets of various designs, shapes and volumes. And then there is just an excellent solution - an autonomous sewage system. This is by far the most optimal way household wastewater treatment. After all, if you, the reader, cannot independently solve the problem of disposing of several hundred grams of your own excrement, then what, kid, are you doing on this site? And where is your mommy looking?

From the end of March 2009, I started permanent residence in his new home, while completing it. Everything is the same - exclusively on weekends. Interior furnishings in 2009

I hung a thermometer with an external sensor on the wall. Above - the temperature inside, below - outside.

In June 2009 I got connected to electricity, got used to it, got accustomed ...

And construction has intensified.

From the remnants of an old garage, I added a rear façade.

I bought an inverter welding machine and a "grinder". And the work began to boil.

The annex is attached to the modules with screws - to preserve the ability to quickly disassemble and transport the building.

I decided to practice making steel doors from the emergency exit of the 2nd floor (to the roof of a neighbor). Considering that I just learned how to weld on the Internet, not bad for the first door. Only having welded a kilogram of electrodes did I begin to feel a little the essence of electric arc welding - to understand the dependence of the set current strength on the thickness of the metal being welded, the position of the seam, etc. It seems that experience is important in welding - the longer and more you cook, the better the weld.

General view of the emergency exit door.

Summer landscape from the backyard side - why not a village idyll?

Having trained in welding, we move on to the main facade.

The main entrance door from the inside ...

And outside

I'm starting to paint the facade. To work with the upper part of the facade, from the last remnants of the old garage (pediments), I built additional scaffolding. With a fenced work platform! Working from the stairs is too dangerous, and becoming disabled was not part of my plans. Non-observance of the safety precautions is the cause of injury! And given the specifics of the construction industry, injuries could be severe, even fatal. So flying down the stairs could easily have ended both this project and my ability to be active.

Painted main facade.

The fence was built from the remnants of material so that passing cars would not spray mud from a puddle on the freshly painted facade and on the gate.

Working out the east wall

The roof is already ready

And the sealed joint of the western wall with the roof of the neighbor is also ready.

SUDDENLY! The film crew came in large numbers, installed the props, cameras, actors, and the shooting of some series about cops and bandits began! Apparently the brutality of our landscape did not leave the filmmakers indifferent! Thus, the freshly painted facade of my house made its modest contribution to Russian cinema. Alas, this bright film debut went unnoticed for the general public. It was in vain that I suspended my work so as not to disturb the filmmakers with the noise of the "grinder".

After a couple of hours, the filmmakers moved on to shoot shootings on the roofs of neighboring garages, while I continued to work on the eastern facade. I welded a window with a powerful grate and a door for another emergency exit.

Inside made interfloor overlap from plywood on steel beams from the corner

I will be replacing this temporary ladder with a new one soon.

Another window with a lattice (on the north facade)

It's outside

I'm making a new staircase. Steel ...

With wooden ...

In steps.

Let's take a look at what's in the first module. Warehouse. Just a warehouse for tools, building materials, households. utensils. Illuminated by a spotlight.

It's already November. It's time to end the 2009 construction season. It's cold and rainy. The window of the welding helmet fogs up from breathing. The building perimeter is closed. Ready for winter.

Inside, too, almost everything is built. Finishing remained.

Let's sum up the results of the outgoing 2009. This year was the main one in the fate of the house. During this year, I turned the house from a vague project into my cozy and beloved home. I didn’t have to push in the subway - the road to work took me about 15-20 minutes of a quiet car ride through the most beautiful places in Moscow, on roads not prone to "traffic jams". My parking space (and even several), right under the window, was always free. I didn't have noisy neighbors, guitarists and drunks didn't gather under the window. In short, I lived in an idyll, not feeling in any way the problems that bother Muscovites. My neighbors (and only appearing during the day) were the owners of garages and workers of various car services, located in abundance on the territory. Excellent men, often surpassing me in straight-handedness, experience and passion. The only difference is that their passion was about various transport, and mine was about building a house. I am also interested in automotive technology, but my Toyota, being very reliable, did not often indulge me with the opportunity to show my ability to repair it. Still, it was great to have auto-special friends around with all sorts of tools, knowledge and experience. Observe the progress of their work, the progress of their auto projects, inspect and discuss their mega-creations. The neighbors repeatedly helped me out with advice, tools, details, and even once - the first medical aid (I injured my hand during careless work with the "grinder"). Thank you neighbors!

92,880 rubles. Total costs as of 31.12.2009 - 297,319 rubles. The budget is almost exhausted, but the building is almost complete. Besides, it has been used for a long time and already saves me a lot of money. It is necessary to revise the budget in the direction of increasing next year - the house is about to become self-sufficient. All with the coming 2010! Good luck to us in the next (abnormally hot) year.

Winter 2010. The dream of living in a house with the woman you love has not yet come true. You have to live not with a woman, but with three gas cylinders... One feeds the heater, another one is in reserve. The third (small) is for the stove.

In the frosty periods of January-February, the balloon lasts for 8-9 days. One ends - I connect another, and next weekend I am taking an empty bottle to refuel. I store the filled cylinder on the street, put it inside shortly before replacing it. Certified and tested cylinders. The safety instructions for using gas appliances have been re-read several times. But you have to break it for a more complete production of gas from the cylinders. Emergency exits are cleared of snow. Suffocating, exploding or burning up is not part of my plans. Let's break through. To heat the house, it is required to burn 17 cylinders of propane during the year. Most of them fall on frosty January-February.

February 2010. A fierce blizzard. I watch the skidding cars from the window. Then he took a shovel and went to dig out the poor fellows. For them - freedom from the snow captivity, for me - useful physical activity in the fresh air. And why are they getting stuck there? Why gas like that? I drive my typewriter (it is in the foreground of the photo) in any snowfall I pass there. Vnatyag.

I built a new shelf for the TV - you can install the shelves at any height and add more (if necessary)

I made a sealed ceiling in the shower stall and replaced the supply tank with a more advanced model. The shower stall should be as tight as possible - less steam emissions and warmer.

Spring 2010 has come - I finished painting the facade.

We paint in the same color scheme and in our favorite "industrial" design.

The exterior finishing of the building has been completed.

I'm getting down to interior decoration.

The favorite color looks good inside too.

Dangerous steep steps are marked in red with a signal. I didn’t do the railings - they would interfere with carrying gas cylinders, for which a year later, in the spring of 2011, I paid for it - stumbling down the stairs on my tailbone. It was very, very painful. I got a memorable lesson about the need to strictly adhere to building codes and regulations.

Sewerage pipes are insulated.

Lined with linoleum in the corridor of the 2nd floor

I installed an air conditioner.

Inside view of the air conditioner. I bought it for next to nothing, back in May, even before the heat wave and fires of 2010 began. Therefore, I did not suffer especially in the heat - I slept wrapped in a cotton blanket, blown by a fresh, cool breeze. Was it really hard in Moscow in the summer of 2010?

We register the entrance paving slabs(adhering to the chosen colors) and a wooden platform.

Lay out the floor of the 1st floor with the same tiles.

Actually, that's all. This completes the construction, the object is ready. July 10, 2010. Costs for this date 328,669 rubles. We can consider them as the final construction budget. Although, if you look closely at the costs, there are already a lot of operating and household costs among the costs. So I propose to consider that I have met the promised 300 thousand. And given that I have been living in the house for over a year, the amount of savings on rental housing has already exceeded construction costs. That is, the project has ALREADY fully paid off and I "came out on top"! In one year! How do you like these investment indicators?

October 2010. It's time to take care of the comfort. And he hesitated to constantly pump up this air mattress. I bought a new one, orthopedic.

January 2011. In the absence of other physical work, I have fun cleaning snow from my own and neighboring roofs. And also a kind of ice sculpture - in the photo there is a snow sofa for ... yes, fig knows it ...

March 2011. Sometimes I dabble in welding.

For example, I welded a bracket.

September 2011. Painted window and grill. Updated the color of the fence. I covered the roof with a fresh layer of mastic. Everything. Other works are not trumpeted. Boredom.

November 2011. Problem. The power supply has been cut off. In principle, the project initially included little dependence on external communications. Thinking, counting, I bought a gasoline electric generator. 1 kW, digital, soundproofed.

I put it on the next roof. Rumbles slowly on the street ...

And in the house it is light and electrical appliances are working.

Winter 2012 Apparently, I long for female love and there is an excess of unspent energy - how else to explain the creation of this snow sculpture in front of the house? See how the chest, waist, hips, lips are accentuated on the statue! Old man Freud, probably, could tell a lot about me, looking at this creation))

The generator has been moved inside, its summer terrace (and the door to it) is covered with abundant snow. I dispose of the exhaust gases outside through a chimney.

And inside it is warm, light, clean and comfortable.

In April 2012, I decided to radically upgrade my power system. An electric power converter and a special accumulator for 100 Ah, allow you to start the generator once a week to charge the battery. Then no hassle - the power supply is enough for a week of laptop power and lighting.

Russian development. I applaud the Russian engineers and manufacturers of this device! Technical details - Google yourself.

The immediate plans were to buy solar panels and a controller for them (by the way, also Russian). It would turn my house into a truly autonomous one. And solar panels on the roof would add +100500 to the brutality and pretentiousness. But the plans were not destined to come true - in June 2012 a new supplier of grid electricity appeared on the territory, I connected to it and curtailed the program for the development of my own, alternative, solar energy. Therefore, alas, dear reader, you will not learn about the successful implementation of this undoubtedly most interesting program. Although no obstacles were foreseen for its completion - the components are being released. And although the price of these components is quite decent, for the project, the budget surplus of which exceeded one million rubles by 2012, it did not seem difficult. The photo shows also a modular, autonomous, residential building with solar panels... 80 lvl

This is where my story comes to a happy end. For 5 years of living in this house, I saved about one and a half million rubles on rent, thereby significantly accelerating the process of accumulating the funds necessary to buy a Moscow apartment. Having added money from the sale of my apartment in the Zamkadny N-sk to my savings, I bought an excellent apartment in a beautiful place in Moscow, 7 minutes walk from the metro. Therefore, in July 2013, I moved from the house to my new apartment... In a year I plan to complete the repairs in it, and given the planned repair budget (many times higher than the budget of the above experiment) and my enthusiasm for this business, the result promises to be amazing! Only this is a completely different story ...

I conclude my story with photographs of an empty house. In this form, it should go to a new owner. At the current moment (October 2013), the house is on sale for 400 thousand rubles - i.e. practically at the cost of construction costs.

Summer cuisine and a utility block - irreplaceable buildings on the territory of a private house or summer cottage. An open-air kitchen saves you from overheating in a stuffy room, and a utility block allows you to store things, tools and other household utensils. Very often these two premises are combined, building under one roof, side by side, which is convenient on the one hand, and economical on the other. We will review the projects of such kitchens within the framework of this article, we will talk about how to choose a suitable project.

Building types

The summer kitchen is a closed or semi-open space for cooking. The summer kitchen is very often erected even before the construction of the main house as a change house, attaching other rooms to it, for example,

• rest room;
• utility block;
• bathroom;
• bath;
• garage.

The role of the change house during construction is irreplaceable; it will depend on the attached premises and its functional purpose. Very often, such a makeshift is needed for a team of builders to live. After the construction of the house, change houses with a summer kitchen will be converted into a kitchen with a utility block and a terrace for outdoor recreation.

In addition, change houses with a kitchen are necessary in the country, since they can replace the construction of a full-fledged house. Country cabins have no more than one or two rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a utility block - this is everything you need to spend the night in the summer at the dacha.

When the summer kitchen is erected after the house has been built, much more attention is paid to its project. They immediately try to attach a garage and a bathhouse to it, and only then change houses and other utility rooms. Therefore, projects of summer kitchens with a utility block can be conditionally divided into simple and complex, they will be discussed further.

Choosing a project

The choice of a summer kitchen project combined with a utility block should not be spontaneous, since you need to take into account a lot of nuances:

• The size of the building as a whole and its location on the site.
• Construction budget.
• Functional purpose.
• What extensions need to be done, a garage, a bathhouse or change houses.
• In what style will the summer kitchen be, and whether it will fit into the design of the site as a whole.
  

  Important! The choice of building material will largely depend on the style of construction. After all, a kitchen made of timber will clearly not be in harmony with brick buildings.

• When composing and choosing one or another summer kitchen project, you need to take into account all the norms of construction, fire safety and sanitation. This will make it easier for you to register the site and save you from litigation.

Overview of simple summer kitchens

By a simple project in this context, we mean a summer kitchen with one extension, be it a utility block, a bathroom or a garage. Such structures are small in area, it is easier to build them on your own without the involvement of specialists. However, it is better to entrust the preparation of the project and drawing to a professional. In a special program, he will not only do 3- D drawing of the future kitchen or change house, but also calculates all the necessary material, taking into account the load and other parameters. And now the projects themselves.

This project provides for the construction of an object with a total area of ​​29 sq. m. At the same time, the largest part is occupied by an open summer kitchen, consisting of two zones: cooking and eating. To prepare meals in such a kitchen, you can put a stove, barbecue or barbecue, since the oven is not planned in the project.

The second part of the building, a utility block, which can be accessed from the opposite side. The extension has two windows, so it can be equipped as a utility room for storing garden tools, tools and other things, as well as a summer recreation room.

The premises of the building are under a common gable roof, a little more than 3 m high. It is planned to use timber as a material. A summer hut like this is a great way to accommodate workers at a construction site. A non-insulated option for building this kitchen to order will cost about 250 thousand rubles.

The second project is a closed summer kitchen with a large utility block, a separate toilet, but without a garage. It is noteworthy that this project involves the construction of a closed summer kitchen with two relatively small windows... In spring and autumn, it will be comfortable to cook food in such a kitchen, but in the summer it is better to look for another place, since it will be hot there, even if you build a kitchen in the shade of trees.

The utility block is very spacious, if desired, you can place in it not only a warehouse of all kinds of things, but also a full-fledged home carpentry workshop. The structure is being built, and pitched roof covered with a professional sheet.

Another summer kitchen project without a garage, quite simple, but at the same time stunningly beautiful. A summer kitchen with a utility block and a toilet in general terms resembles the previous project (both buildings are two-room), but in appearance the difference is cardinal, since the building was erected and decorated in the Russian style. The summer kitchen is open and blown by all the winds. There is a wood-burning stove in the kitchen. Apart from the dining table and two benches, there is nothing from the furnishings - the space does not allow.

Unlike the summer kitchen, the utility block, which is under the same roof with it, is completely closed on all sides. There is a toilet inside the utility block, on occasion it can be used without going outside, where bad weather can reign.

For your information! By making small changes to the project, you can make a recreation room instead of a utility block, you get a summer kitchen with a living room, where you can take a break after a hearty meal.

Complex

Now we will consider projects of a summer kitchen, combined with several outbuildings. This not only complicates the construction process, but also makes it more costly. The project presented below is a closed space with a usable area of ​​35 sq. m plus a terrace of 18.6 sq. m.

In this case, the spacious kitchen, which has two windows and an exit to the terrace, is bordered by a dressing room and a shower. From the changing room you can get to the shower and the adjacent sauna. Behind the sauna there is a utility room, the entrance to which is from the terrace. Everything is well thought out, the room will fulfill the role of a change house one hundred percent. Lead here you can cook dinner, wash, and relax.

The seating area can be organized outdoors on the terrace, as well as in the kitchen, by placing a sofa in the opposite corner from the cooking area.

Building on this project, the usable area of ​​which is 36 sq. m, includes a summer kitchen, garage and utility room. The kitchen is closed, and therefore the bad weather does not matter. According to this project, you can build small country houses. After all, there is a place to store garden tools, there is also a place to shelter the car from the sun or rain. And the kitchen is the place where you can have a snack and make preparations for the winter.

Note that from the kitchen you can get to both the utility room and the garage, which is very convenient.

And this project is a whole home complex designed for work and rest, only a garage and a change house are missing, and so there is a barn, a bathhouse, a recreation room with a kitchen and a large terrace. The advantage is that country buildings of this type can be used even without country house... Let's say more, many country houses in terms of convenience, they lose to this economic structure.

The studio or recreation room is divided into two functional areas: the cooking area and the living area. If you install a dining table in the living room, you will also get a dining room - there is enough space for this. In the summertime, the dining table can be easily taken out on the terrace, since it is under the roof. In addition, you can put sun loungers or a sofa on the terrace and sleep right in the fresh air. There will be a desire and you can take a steam bath. Although it is small, it has everything you need: a steam room, a shower, a toilet.

Summing up, we note that country summer kitchens with utility blocks are conditionally two-room, three-room and multi-room. In addition to the two main premises of the utility block and the kitchen, such buildings can combine under one roof a garage, a bathhouse, a shower with a toilet, and a recreation room. In general, when we talk about projects of two rooms, a kitchen and a utility block, we can imply that the building will be even more functional due to additional rooms.

The problem of buying a car is directly related to the problem of purchasing a garage. Outdoor car park - not the best solution question. Comfortable indoor car parks are not easy to get to. And what if you are not a resident of a metropolis, and there are no parking lots in your town? The only correct solution in such a situation would be to build a garage according to the chosen project. And if financial opportunities allow, then with a utility block.

Garage for a car with a utility unit or a workshop in the country

A garage for a car allows you to hide the car from prying eyes and protect it from the harmful effects of atmospheric factors (sunlight, temperature changes, precipitation, etc.). They can ruin the surface of the car, its interior upholstery, panel and even disable the iron horse. It will help to extend the life of the car, and will allow you to carry out repair and maintenance work in a comfortable environment.

You can also read the material on the benefits.

Some car enthusiasts equip garages with inspection pits. This will save costs for the service station, because it will make it possible to carry out repairs with your own hands.

The garage can be used not only as a place for storing and repairing a car. It is customary to drag things here that have no place in the house. Bicycles, home supplies, summer cottage equipment, and many other necessary and useful things need to be located somewhere for the winter (summer) season.

What to build a garage from will tell you.

Ultimately, all this undoubtedly speaks in favor of building a garage with a utility block.

Features of construction from a utility block

Sooner or later, to store things that are superfluous in the house, the utility block will have to be completed. Therefore, when starting construction, it is better to design two combined structures under one roof. It will be easy and convenient to use such combined rooms.

Until recently, the main task of the garage was parking, storing a car, spare parts and equipment, but now great attention is paid to its appearance.

Advantages and disadvantages

Speaking about the advantages, I would like to emphasize the aesthetic side of the issue. If you use the same material during construction, it will look stylish and beautiful from the outside.

Often, car owners create a garage with a bathhouse or sauna. It is practical, convenient, saves space on a summer cottage or an ordinary land plot. More details about projects of garages with a bath under one roof are described.

Such construction also has obvious drawbacks, or rather possible unpleasant consequences. A garage is a room of increased danger for a person, and a bathhouse is the same. Therefore, placing them in close proximity can face very serious problems. Only after deciding on the purpose of the utility unit, you can begin to calculate its size and design.

How to calculate the size according to the outbuilding plan

The owner must decide on the size of the garage and utility block before creating the project. When calculating them, you need to take into account:

• The garage should be spacious. Large room will embarrass the owner, and besides, for possible repair helpers may be needed. If it is crowded, it will affect the quality of work.
• It will be uncomfortable and uncomfortable in a very large garage. . You need to think about heating, this will also require finances. The boundaries of the land plot are not endless, so you need to choose the optimal size of the foundation and walls.
• The thickness of the walls is usually directly proportional to the thermal insulation. Therefore, in order to save heat in winter, there is no need to save on wall thickness.
• Thinking over the size of the utility unit, you need to decide on its goals and the amount of equipment, spare parts, inventory or food stored in it.

The size of the garage directly depends on the size of the car. You need to plan how many cars will be in it. There may be garages for two or more cars. If you doubt the correctness of your calculations, look for recommendations on the Internet or consult those who have had to do this.

Outbuilding project

Any construction is impossible without a project, especially a garage with a utility block. It will simplify the process itself and allow you to correctly calculate the required materials. The layout is as follows: taking into account the placement of future racks, whether the project will be two-story, if so, where the stairs will be located, the availability of a working surface and the arrangement of equipment. Such a building cannot be called a barn, therefore, you need to approach the design wisely.

When creating a plan great attention need to be given to the household block. Depending on its purpose, it can have different heights, wall thicknesses, and other characteristics.

You need to consider the presence and size of windows, sockets, heating, lighting, shelving, etc.

Where to get the drawings and layout of the utility room

The outbuilding at the garage requires a more thorough study, because the entire necessary tool and equipment. Therefore, this part of the subsidiary farm should be planned taking into account the organization.

• You can do the project yourself. This does not take much time and effort, and besides, it will save the developer's finances. You do not need to look for professionals, wait until the turn comes to your order, pay them a considerable amount for their work. The developer himself is able to create simple drawings, but first you need to decide on the walls of the structure, their size and thickness.
• If you can afford to turn to competent specialists to draw up a project, then rest assured that they will not lead you! There is no need to doubt their calculations, everything will be accurate, down to the smallest detail! This means that the structure will be built with high quality and reliability.

Selection of material and designs

For any type of building, including a garage, the modern building materials market offers a wide range of products. Garage and outbuildings are most often erected visas of brick, wood, concrete or frame structures. Take your time with the choice, get acquainted with the opinions of those whose construction is left behind. Let's consider these building materials in more detail:

• Brick... Such a structure will be durable, reliable, have a beautiful appearance... Construction will be slow and expensive, and bricklayers appreciate their work.
• Tree. A wooden garage with a utility block will look advantageous against the background of a wooden house. Material that is safe for human health is becoming more and more popular. Such a garage will look stylish and modern, and will perfectly demonstrate the refined taste of the owner. The tree has a very affordable price. In this case, the foundation can be omitted. In the garage and utility block all year round it will be dry and warm, in winter period for this, a short-term operation of an average heater will be sufficient.

Along with the advantages, this material also has disadvantages. The most important and weighty one is fire hazard. Flammable compounds are stored in the garage, and if they are surrounded by dry wood, a fire can break out for any reason.

• Concrete. The easiest, cheapest and most affordable construction material... Despite the not entirely attractive appearance, such structures are quite popular. For its construction, a foundation is required.
• Frame construction. With the help of specialists, assembling it is simple and easy. The garage will look modern and elegant, but for an area with adverse weather conditions, this option is unacceptable, for example, the design of polycarbonate visas.
• Combination of materials(wooden boards with metal frame, etc.) is also considered an economical option.

Garages made of metal structures, glued beams, shield elements and others are popular today. modern materials... Modular designs are economical and quick to assemble.

You will find a description of projects of warm houses using Finnish technology from a double bar.

When choosing a material for construction, you need to take into account the size of the garage, the size of the land, as well as the climatic features of your area. Having thought over these questions, they begin construction.

DIY construction stages

The construction of a garage consists of the same steps as for any other structure:

1. You need to start with drawing up a project.
2. Make markings at the construction site. For this, pegs are driven in and a torn thread is pulled.
3. Earthwork, preparation of a place for a foundation.
4. Securing the foundation.
5. Construction of foam block walls.
6. Roof construction.
7. Wall insulation.
8. Works on equipping additional premises.

How to equip a garage

In order for the garage to be reliable and enjoyable work in it, you need to approach its construction seriously and thoughtfully. Only by thinking over all the details to the smallest detail can you ensure the construction of a multifunctional room with quality, reliability and a guarantee of durable operation. As soon as the construction of this necessary and useful creation is completed, your site will become beautiful and complete.

A summer kitchen is created in a country house in order to spend time with guests in the fresh air, barbecue, enjoy nature and socializing in a cozy atmosphere. You can implement the idea with your own hands on a plot of any area, even on a standard 6 acres you can build a beautiful summer kitchen.

An important aspect on which the entire success of the project depends is the location of the summer kitchen.

What places are not suitable for a cozy stay:

1. Close to the road;
2. Not far from cesspool, dumpsters, chicken coops, cowsheds or pigsties;
3. In the lowlands, in a low marshy area;
4. Near the anthill, hornet's nest.

If a summer kitchen is planned right next to a pond, you need to take into account the mosquito population. Any rest can be spoiled by these meticulous bloodsuckers. It is best to take the kitchen out to a sunny and elevated area, where there are many fresh air, no dampness and insects.

A summer kitchen project usually provides for several functional areas.:

• The place where food is prepared;
• The room where the meal takes place;
• Space for relaxation, dancing, open area.

Food is cooked on the hearth or on the grill. After cooking, the dishes are transferred to the gazebo or to the hall, where tables and chairs are placed. Large and roomy summer kitchens with a gazebo suggest many tables, small kitchens are limited to one table. All these zones can be combined in one room, or they can be located separately from each other and connected by passages, paths, paths.

Summer kitchen project, the room can be:

1. Closed, have 4 walls and a roof;
2. Semi-open, have 2 or 3 walls and a canopy or roof;
3. Open, no walls.

The latter option cannot be used during the rainy season. In a closed kitchen it is not convenient to barbecue or cook other dishes on the grill. The hearth in a closed kitchen is taken out to a separate area outside the premises. The semi-open kitchen is called the pavilion. This design provides a canopy or roof that protects from wind, rain and snow.

The hearth is installed directly in the pavilion, and a dining area is set up nearby.

If the summer kitchen will be used not only in the warm, but also in the cold season, you need to choose a pavilion or a closed version. For a small area, the kitchen plan should be as thoughtful as possible. Drawings must be created in advance in order to accurately calculate the amount of materials and financial costs.

The self-made summer kitchen was truly comfortable and modern if taken indoors:

• Electricity;
• Sewerage;
• Water pipes.

All communications are carried out either by hand or with the help of invited specialists. Electrical wiring will make it possible to illuminate the kitchen in the evening and at night. Plumbing will make the cooking process more convenient, help keep the kitchen clean and save the housewife's time.

It is imperative to provide for the ability to turn off the water for the winter and disconnect the kitchen from the mains during the absence.

House project with a summer kitchen: proximity to communications

Laying wires and pipes if the summer kitchen is located at the other end of the site is expensive and inconvenient. Therefore, many people make their own kitchens right next to their homes. The pavilion with the gazebo has a common wall with the living area; this is a practical layout. Drawings should provide for the possibility of leaving the house directly to the summer kitchen.

A kitchen with a gazebo can be decorated with nice additions:

• Pots with fresh herbs;
• A hedge of climbing plants;
• A small waterfall or artificial reservoir;
• Decorative panels;
• Open shelves for flowers.

The summer kitchen can have a common foundation with the house, be on the same level. It is imperative to think over the project of the summer kitchen and the device of the foundation, since without a solid foundation it is impossible to create a strong roof structure and install supports.

A summer kitchen with a light or small canopy is a good option in clear weather and unsuitable for wind, rain or snow.

If the cottage is used year-round, it is imperative to make a foundation for a kitchen with a gazebo. Pouring a cement foundation with your own hands is not so difficult, although professional advice may be required to clarify details.

Principal scope of work:

1. Dig a pit;
2. Install the formwork;
3. Pour concrete;
4. Allow to dry;
5. Strengthen the load-bearing supports and assemble the roof on them.

There should be a rise to the roof in case the roof needs to be repaired. Plumbing and sewer pipes need to be decorated, but available for renovation. It is quite possible to collect water supply and sewerage with your own hands.

What to look for when assembling:

• The valve that shut off the water supply to the kitchen must be in the house;
• It is more convenient and safer when the switch for turning off the power supply is also in the house, and not outside;
• The sewage system can be installed in the floor, however, so that the pipes do not freeze and do not burst in the winter.

A summer kitchen with a fireplace, electric light and running water is a great place to meet New Year, to celebrate an anniversary or a solemn date.

Garage project with summer kitchen

The summer kitchen is united by one wall with the garage in the event that it is impossible to use the site on the side or in front of the facade of the house. This option has advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage of this arrangement is the presence of unpleasant odors. The garage is often located as a gateway to the road, the noise and exhaust fumes of passing cars will make a good rest impossible.

The advantage of this location is that communications can be easily carried out if they are carried out to the garage.

If in front of the garage there is a parking lot already filled with concrete, you can take this area as a foundation and thus save time, effort and money. The barbecue area is usually located where there is no fumes.

Near the hearth can be equipped:

1. Woodpile or coal storage;
2. A bench or a chair in which the person who fries the barbecue can sit and look at the fire;
3. Locker for inventory, skewers, barbecue grills.

The hearth is made with your own hands from any non-combustible material, most often, due to its practicality and beauty, it is made:

• Brick;
• Made of stone;
• Concrete decorated with tiles, mosaics or stucco.

In addition to the one-piece built-in hearth, there are portable and lighter options. You can do it yourself metal brazier or a pit for a fire with reinforced skewer stands. It is worth considering the typical wind direction so that the summer kitchen is not located where the smoke goes.

If the house does not have an ordinary kitchen, in the summer one you can equip a place for an electric or gas stove.

Summer kitchens with a gazebo: choice of materials

The capital summer kitchen, which stays cozy all year round, is made of durable materials.

For instance:

1. From a bar;
2. From logs;
3. Brick;
4. Made of stone.

If the summer kitchen is designed as a semi-open pavilion, you can hide it from prying eyes using:

• Live hedge;
• Carved wood screens
• A woven curtain, like in a tent;
• Metal openwork lattice.

If the kitchen serves only in the warm season, you can use the option when the woven tent is put on a frame made of metal or wood. With the onset of cold weather, the tent is folded up, and the frame endures the winter without damage. This option can be done by hand using materials at hand.

Summer kitchen project with insulation

To keep the summer kitchen warm in bad weather, you need to provide a heating supply. If the dacha has a gas or water boiler, you can do it yourself with a pipe system from it. If the dacha is not heated, then the hearth must be located directly in the kitchen.

What you need to pay attention to when insulating a kitchen:

• Windows must be airtight, PVC is best;
• The joints of the floor and walls must be closed with a plinth;
• For the floor, choose a coating with additional insulation, if financial possibilities allow, you can carry out a warm floor;
• Insulate walls with expanded polystyrene or similar material.

With your own hands, you can transform a veranda that is not used into a summer kitchen, carry out communications there. In this case, the focus will be taken out of former veranda... In a closed kitchen, wall decoration can be carried out with exactly the same materials that are used for the home. In an open kitchen, only fade-resistant, durable and waterproof materials should be used.

Floor covering suitable for a summer kitchen:

• Boards;
• Ceramic or stone tiles;
• Linoleum on top of an insulated concrete floor.

It is better not to use coatings as fragile and unstable to moisture changes as parquet. Plank flooring is quite simple to make. This type of flooring is resistant to wear and tear and does not require specific flooring skills. To make the boards look beautiful, they need to be impregnated with linseed oil and covered with varnish that does not wear out over time.
