Do you dig in the renovation industry?
Who does not know.
The 'Responsibility for Renovations' law of MK Michal Shir (New Hope) passed a preliminary reading.
According to the law, large-scale renovation work, amounting to NIS 47,000, will oblige the renovation contractor to be responsible for a minimum of one year.
It was stipulated that a renovation contract would be in writing and signed by the parties.
The responsibility of the renovation contractor for the work will be anchored for at least one year before the client.
This will ensure the quality of service provided by registered renovation contractors to consumers while creating a clear arrangement for compensation in the event that there is a defect in the performance of work or contracting service.
The cost of an average renovation ranges from NIS 45,000 to NIS 100,000, and the cost of an extensive renovation, which includes adding rooms to an apartment, can reach NIS 200,000 or more.
As part of the increase in household expenses, the increase in expenses for renovations has increased by tens of percent, and the addition of repair costs may lead a family to heavy and unplanned expenses in a short period of time.
MK Michal Shir: "This is an important consumer law, in an era in which the renovation industry is gaining momentum and the cost of living is skyrocketing, a citizen should have a certain insurance certificate that will give him peace of mind during and after the renovation process.
In addition, the bill is expected to protect mainly senior citizens from situations of oppression and fraud. "
Eran Sib, Chairman of the Association of Renovation Contractors:
The Renovation Liability Law is an important and worthy consumer law that will benefit the work clients and renovation contractors in Israel. "
