Concrete cellar
Turnkey concrete cellar in Kyiv: reliable storage for 100 years
You have invested a lot of effort in your garden and vegetable garden, harvested a rich harvest, bought the best farm products, but you are faced with an eternal problem: where do you store all this? The usual basement of the house is too warm and damp, there are strange smells in the garage, and the refrigerator is not made of rubber.
The optimal solution for residents of Kyiv and its suburbs (Irpen, Bucha, Vyshhorod, Boryspil, Obukhov) is the construction of a monolithic concrete cellar, attached to the house or standing separately.
Why a concrete cellar?
There are many offered on the market: plastic caissons, metal tanks, brickwork. But experienced owners choose concrete. And here's why:
Hermeticity and strength. In the conditions of Kyiv soils (especially in the lowlands near the Dnieper), a high level of ground water is common. Monolithic concrete with proper waterproofing will not "float" like plastic and will not rot like metal.
Ideal microclimate. Concrete has high thermal inertia. It is cool in summer (+4 \ +6°C}, and in winter the temperature does not drop below zero. These are ideal conditions for storing fruits, canning and wine.
Longevity. The service life of a high-quality concrete bunker is 100 years. This is an investment that will go to your grandchildren.
Protection and security. In modern realities, a concrete cellar can serve not only as a warehouse, but also as a reliable shelter in emergency situations.
Variants of cellar extensions in Kyiv
We offer three main scenarios for project implementation:
1. Extension to the foundation of the house
Ideal if you want to enter the cellar directly from the veranda, kitchen or garage. We make a deformation seam so that the difference in shrinkage does not damage the structure.
Plus: You don't need to go outside in the rain or frost.
2. Detached sunken cellar
The classic version with a "mound" (burial hill). It is possible to arrange an alpine hill or a lawn on top of it.
Plus: Maximum thermal insulation due to the soil layer.
3. Cellar under the terrace or garage
Rational use of the site area. We build cellar walls, which at the same time serve as a support for your future recreation area.
How we work: stages of construction
(//tractor-service.com)
We undertake the entire cycle of work, saving you from the search for excavators, concreters and buyers.
Engineer visit and soil analysis. We determine the level of groundwater and select a brand of concrete (usually not lower than W6-W8 in terms of water resistance).
Earthworks. Excavation of a pit taking into account slopes and a drainage system.
Reinforcement and formwork. We use steel reinforcement of the calculated section. No economy on the frame is the "skeleton" of your warehouse.
Filling the monolith. We use only factory concrete with hydrophobic additives. The cup is filled at once to avoid "cold seams".
Waterproofing and ventilation. We use modern bituminous mastics and membranes. We install supply and exhaust ventilation - without it
vegetables moldy.
Interior decoration and shelving. At the request of the customer, we install comfortable stairs, carry out lighting and install shelves.
Why do the people of Kiev choose us?
Local examination. We know the peculiarities of soils in all districts of the Kyiv region — from the sands of Boryspil to the clays of the Vasylkovsky district.
A transparent estimate. The price is fixed in the contract and does not increase "in the process" due to the travel of the diesel fuel.
Own equipment. Having your own excavator and formwork reduces the total cost for you by 15-20%.
Guarantee. We give an official guarantee on the tightness of the structure.
Important: A cellar is not just a pit with concrete. This is an engineering construction. An error in the calculation of waterproofing will turn your warehouse into a pool that cannot be drained. Trust the professionals.
Cost and terms
The construction period of a standard cellar 3 by 4 meters is 14 to 30 working days.
The price depends on the depth of groundwater and the difficulty of equipment access to the site.
