Foun­da­tion. One of the main stages of con­struc­tion. It depends on him how much the con­struc­tion of the bath will cost. When build­ing a bath from a pro­filed beam, it is enough to make a colum­nar foun­da­tion. It will take two times less mate­ri­als than tape. Already tan­gi­ble sav­ings.

Walls. The cost of a bath large­ly depends on the choice of mate­r­i­al. So, a cut tim­ber is com­pa­ra­ble in price to the cost of a log; in order to work with this mate­r­i­al, it is nec­es­sary to have expe­ri­ence in car­ry­ing out such con­struc­tion work. Despite the con­sid­er­able cost of pro­filed tim­ber, such mate­r­i­al will sim­pli­fy the stage of con­struc­tion work. All thanks to the con­ve­nient type of con­nec­tion “thorn in the groove”, which ensures tight­ness and reduces the cost of ther­mal insu­la­tion of the walls. The most expen­sive type of wall mate­r­i­al is pro­filed glued lam­i­nat­ed tim­ber. Using this mate­r­i­al, you will save a lot of time.

Roof. In order for the cost of build­ing a bath to be low and with­out com­pro­mis­ing qual­i­ty, you can refuse to build a roof with com­plex archi­tec­tur­al forms. There are designs that are sim­pler to imple­ment, so I advise you to use inex­pen­sive, but reli­able and light­weight soft tiles as a roof­ing mate­r­i­al.

Inte­ri­or dec­o­ra­tion. Expe­ri­enced builders assure that it is impos­si­ble to save on the inte­ri­or dec­o­ra­tion of any bath. The com­fort and peri­od of oper­a­tion of the facil­i­ty depends on this stage. It is nec­es­sary to pay atten­tion to the mate­ri­als that are used in the steam room and wash­ing depart­ment. Aspen or larch boards are con­sid­ered the best option for cladding walls, ceil­ings and floors. Both breeds are hydropho­bic, durable, and most impor­tant­ly, envi­ron­men­tal­ly friend­ly. And this is the basic prin­ci­ple in the con­struc­tion of any bath.

Project. As with the con­struc­tion of any object, ini­tial­ly for the bath you need to cre­ate a project. To com­pile it, it is bet­ter to con­tact pro­fes­sion­al design agen­cies. Spe­cial­ists will help to cre­ate an indi­vid­ual project, tak­ing into account all the fea­tures of the site and give rec­om­men­da­tions for the con­struc­tion. You should not be neg­li­gent about this stage, as even the soil on which con­struc­tion work is planned is being stud­ied by com­pe­tent agen­cies.

Mate­r­i­al cal­cu­la­tion. Any mas­ter with exten­sive expe­ri­ence, even by eye, will be able to esti­mate the right amount of mate­r­i­al. If you apply for the deliv­ery of wood to the sup­pli­er, then he will cal­cu­late every­thing on his own and bring the right amount. But rarely, one of them takes into account force majeure cir­cum­stances, for exam­ple, defec­tive mate­r­i­al. There­fore, at this stage, I rec­om­mend con­sult­ing with spe­cial­ists.

It is worth pay­ing atten­tion to pro­vid­ing a bath with day­light, so you need to focus on the south, south­east, east.

It is impor­tant to study the ter­rain, if there is a slope on the ter­ri­to­ry, then the bath­house should be locat­ed on an ele­vat­ed part, this will pro­tect the build­ing from pre­cip­i­ta­tion and ground­wa­ter. If this is not pos­si­ble, take pro­tec­tive mea­sures.

Think in advance about the issue of sum­ming up com­mu­ni­ca­tions.

No fire safe­ty any­where.

Cur­rent­ly, there are rules that must be observed:

the min­i­mum dis­tance from the bath to the liv­ing quar­ters is 8 meters;
there should be at least 15 meters between a log bath and neigh­bor­ing hous­es;
to the for­est, groves and oth­er places of mass place­ment of trees — 15 meters;
to lakes, rivers, ponds and all that — 5 meters;
dis­tance to tall trees, even if it is your own gar­den — 4 meters;
medi­um-sized trees — 3 meters;
shrub veg­e­ta­tion — 1 meter.
