Options for relocating a balcony - tips and design ideas

Glazing of balconies with removal at reduced prices!

An example of extending a balcony along the window sill and extending along the floor

We work in the shortest possible time without loss of quality - most often all glazing work with removal is completed within 1 day! But the duration of the work depends on its complexity and the size of the balcony/loggia.

To find out the exact timing, you need to call our specialist. After taking measurements and assessing the condition of the balcony, the specialist will announce the duration and cost of the work.

What is glazing of a balcony with extension and why is it necessary?

  • If the balcony is very small in area, you can order glazing of the balcony with the window sill removed . The structure that holds the windows does not use the useful area of ​​the balcony, but is taken outside. This allows you to expand the usable area on the balcony.

Almost all concrete parapets and some iron ones are suitable for glazing a balcony with extension along the window sill.

Legalization of balcony reconstruction

If the expansion of the balcony is carried out by more than 0.3 m on any side of the base, it is necessary to obtain permission to carry out the work. You will need to contact the city department of architecture for it. The legalization procedure consists of several stages:

  • obtaining permission to develop a project to change the apartment;
  • ordering a project from a licensed organization;
  • coordination of the finished project with all necessary authorities and the urban planning department;
  • obtaining a warrant authorizing redevelopment;
  • direct implementation of expansion work;
  • acceptance of the object by a special commission, after which an act is issued;
  • making changes to real estate documents, which is carried out in the BTI.

Due to the fact that official redevelopment is a very troublesome process in all respects, many property owners ignore obtaining permission from the municipality. Such unauthorized actions threaten serious troubles. In the best case, problems may arise when changing the form of ownership of the apartment or government officials will oblige you to return the balcony to its previous appearance at their own expense, and in the worst case, if the load was incorrectly calculated, the balcony may collapse, which is fraught with more serious consequences.

If the balcony on the first floor is expanded, and this is done with the addition of the foundation, it is necessary to additionally obtain a land allotment. Also, in some cases, when agreeing on redevelopment with neighbors, the latter may request financial compensation.

Removing a balcony or loggia from the window sill

Removal from the window sill - appearance.

Involves the preliminary installation of a special design. It is made of metal corners that are welded to the balcony slab or railing.

  • Triangle shaped brackets are used . Mounted perpendicular to the slab or railings.
  • Metal corners are welded to them which serve as the basis for installing the metal-plastic structure.
  • Installation exclusively on a solid base , and not on brackets (this may cause sagging of the impost).
  • After completing the welding work, the structure is covered with metal. Then it is insulated from the outside.
Removing a balcony or loggia from the floor

Expansion from the floor will allow you to insulate and increase the area of ​​the balcony.

Extension of the balcony from the floor slab.

It is popular in old type houses (Khrushchev, Stalin). This method allows you to repair the balcony by increasing its area and effectively insulating it.

  • Metal corners are attached to the parapet, starting from the floor itself.
  • After welding the base is completed, metal-plastic windows are attached, the balcony is insulated from the inside and outside. Polystyrene foam or other insulation materials are used as per customer's requirements.
  • It is possible to install a steam or hydraulic barrier.
  • From the outside, such a balcony is covered with siding, from the inside - with MDF, plastic or wooden lining.

Advantages and disadvantages of external glazing

Removing a loggia or balcony involves expanding it by shifting the border of the glazing. To do this, a metal frame of the required size and geometry is built up.

Advantages of this solution:

  • increasing the width of the window sill without losing useful space - for indoor plants, organizing a compact workplace;
  • additional reinforcement of the base slab, parapet;
  • precise, uniform distribution of load from window units;
  • improving the insolation of the room when it expands on the sides;
  • increased interior design capabilities.

The disadvantages are the labor-intensive nature of the work, the need to coordinate a complex project with government agencies and neighbors, and strict adherence to balcony expansion technology. The reliability of the structure and the safety of people - passers-by on the street, neighbors, residents of the apartment where the premises are being improved - depend on the last point.

When is glazing a balcony with extensions the right decision?

Balcony glazing with removal is most often ordered by apartment owners in Khrushchev-era buildings . Small balconies that were added to such housing force people to fight for every centimeter of usable space.

But there are also modern house designs that include balconies that are modest in size: corner or narrow and long.

Extended glazing allows you to increase the depth of the balcony by 20-30 cm.

  • Glazing of loggias with removal and insulation allows you to equip an additional living room.
  • Here you can make a small dining room with a beautiful view or a relaxation room.
  • To increase space for cabinets or flowers, you can extend the window sill.

Stages of work when glazing balconies with the removal of the window sill and the removal along the floor

  • First of all, we strengthen the balcony slab, reinforce it and concrete it.
  • We strengthen or create a new parapet from durable metal structures. The best option is to install a new aluminum frame along the entire height.
  • If the balcony is located on the top floor, it is possible to install a roof frame.
  • To increase the area of ​​the window sill, a special frame with metal corners is mounted, onto which double-glazed windows are installed.
  • The lower part, if necessary, is insulated and sheathed; the price for glazing balconies with remote depends on the volume and complexity of the work.

Types of profiles for glazing balconies with extension

  • PVC. Structures based on plastic profiles are strong and durable. They provide excellent thermal insulation and allow the room to be used as a living space if there is heating. The main disadvantage of such structures is their large weight; a reliable foundation is required for support, which is sometimes difficult to arrange on a balcony in a Khrushchev-era building.
  • Cold aluminum profile. The main advantage of aluminum cold glazing for a balcony with an extension is the low weight of the structure. The aluminum-based profile is light and strong, fire-resistant and durable. Protects from external factors - precipitation, dust and wind.
  • Warm aluminum profile. To ensure high thermal insulation, it is possible to install warm glazing with remote control. An aluminum profile with a thermal insert is lighter than PVC structures, but heavier than cold aluminum systems. Therefore, its installation requires assessment and reinforcement of the base.
