Hello! I am currently facing a property purchase and since I generally avoid developers and am not looking for a single-family house in the countryside but rather an apartment in the city, I am feverishly searching for suitable living space.
At the moment, I have found something:
- Classic old building layout, very well maintained, basically everything perfect.
Only: gas individual stoves and an electric heater in the bathroom.
Of course, the immediate thought is high additional costs, living ergonomics, etc.
The next thought was naturally that a proper gas floor heating must finally be installed there, since neither a district heating connection is planned nor does the house have a central heating system.
Two alternatives present themselves:
- Cheap and simple, do not hide the heating pipes in the wall
- Or build up the wall, lay pipes and plaster up again.
Does anyone have experience with such renovation measures? Does one get into trouble with the [Deckmalschutzamt] or structural engineering?
I am grateful for any help.
