In the Bryansk region, the queue for overhaul is now built according to the state of the houses, not the year of construction

Of the 491 apartment buildings that went to the overhaul program for 2026 from previous periods, repairs have already been completed for 353. Another 86 addresses are being built right now. Together, this is almost 90% of the annual plan, although in the usual mode the regional fund coped with about 250 houses per year.

These figures are the acting General Director of the Fund of capital repair MKD Dmitry Totai called at the round table “Improving the efficiency of management and repair of MKD, quality, control, digitalization”, which was held by the Public chamber of the Bryansk region.

The breakthrough became possible thanks to a continuous technical survey of the housing stock. The overhaul program has been operating in the region since 2014, and for ten years the queue of houses that need to be updated has grown noticeably. By 2025, there were also such buildings that were there only for the year of construction, and in fact did not require repair. Dmitry Totai admitted that the regional operator could not cope with such a volume either in terms of the capabilities of contractors or in terms of the collected contributions.

The solution was found in federal law. Amendments to the Housing Code, which the State Duma adopted in 2023, allowed regional operators to conduct technical inspection of houses themselves. The Bryansk Fund applied this right in 2026. Until July, his specialists examined hundreds of apartment blocks throughout the region and found out what condition they are in and how worn the load-bearing structures. According to the head of the fund, no one has done such a large-scale work here before. Now the program can be adjusted according to the real condition of the house, not the date of its delivery.

The updated version of the document is now under approval, the final decision remains with the government of the region.

The foundation will not be able to immediately repair all the houses, and Totai sees no sense in this. Residents continue to come to private receptions with the same question: when will they reach their entrance and roof. The Fund intends to maintain the momentum, and the order from now on will depend on the degree of wear at home.
