The word ""European-quality repair"" became so usual that we already almost do not think that is behind this concept.
In Soviet period repair was understood as word the renovation consisting, as a rule, of easy updating of interior (whitewashing of ceiling, change of wall-paper, repainting of windows, doors, batteries by oil paint) or capital necessary in case of problems with structures of the house. The strict standards aimed at safety of residents did not allow to clear up imaginations and production techniques of construction materials were not such sophisticated. The truth concrete, glass and tree gave the chance to architects to think up the unusual courses, but after the end of construction only insignificant alterations were possible.
After Reorganization to us many western manners including in the field of repair have come. It became a shame to brag of usual renovation, the culture of consumption assuming need of big expenditure for prestigious things has become fashionable. And, of course, repair with the euro prefix has become necessity for prosperous citizens.
On the websites of the companies offering services in European-quality repair it is possible to find set of explanations why it is necessary to do European-quality repair, and arguments for hiring of specially trained designer, the choice of expensive materials, signing of the contract with their highly skilled masters. But it is worth getting a grasp of the advertizing text, it is possible to find many imperceptible stretches and outright distortions. Here, for example, it is difficult to argue with need of the choice of European-quality repair if to mean by it high-quality performance of work with use of good stuff, the equipment, change of communications for the most convenient use of the modern equipment which will fill the apartment or the house. However claims of the separate companies that European-quality repair assumes the calculation of mosaic from glass and marble desire to use for decoration of the room multilevel ceilings and the most original material for finishing of floors, the hint to future customer that it is necessary to do walls without corners, look just as badly hidden desire to profit.
So, whether it is worth ordering ""European-quality repair""? Certainly, you should not be guided on persons interested to earn from us the companies, to agree with the self-confident designer and to pay delicacy which characterizes not European-quality repair, and elite. For the standard apartment it is quite enough to choose the most durable and safe materials for health, to order change of the decayed communications (plumbers, electricians). Pay attention to trifles which so facilitate life, for example, on increase in number of electric sockets, use of large number of extenders is unsafe. And, the most important, you remember that in Europe there is no uniform ""European standard"" on repair that means that ""European-quality repair"" this just convenient word for beautiful, but empty advertizing incurring only excess expenses for the client.
