Realux has been providing turnkey home construction in Batumi since 2022, completing more than 40 projects of varying complexity. Sole trader Andrei Melnikov oversees all construction processes, bringing a professional background and industry experience dating back to 2004. Turnkey construction covers every stage from design through to the handover of the finished property.
A sloped plot requires retaining walls to ensure the stability of the foundation. Retaining walls increase the project cost depending on the complexity of the terrain in Batumi. The company prepares a detailed estimate after the layout has been agreed, taking into account all technical characteristics of the site. The estimate is drawn up once the layout is approved, allowing for an accurate calculation of the construction budget.
Turnkey house construction includes the full cycle: from design to delivery with finishing.
Stage 1
Mandatory geological survey of the site
After all, the coastal area of Batumi is characterized by a high level of groundwater and a variety of soils, which directly affects the reliability of the future foundation.
Stage 2
Conducting a thorough survey
To clarify the boundaries of the site and to eliminate the risk of disputes with neighbors
Stage 3
Development of an architectural solution
We use modern technologies and materials, including monolithic concrete, brick, and aerated concrete blocks. Each stage is supervised by engineers, ensuring deadlines are met .
The price is determined by the project’s complexity, the materials selected, the area, and the site’s characteristics. Key components include: design documentation, excavation work, frame construction, roof installation, utilities, and finishing.
It’s important to understand that if the site has a significant slope, retaining walls will be required, which will increase the final cost of the project. To accurately calculate the budget, we prepare a detailed estimate after the layout has been approved.
A standard project has a fixed cost and clearly defined implementation timelines. Standard projects have fixed schedules thanks to ready-made technical solutions. A pre-designed project ensures faster construction due to fully prepared documentation. A standard project offers cost savings compared to a bespoke design.
A bespoke project is created from scratch based on the client’s wishes and the specific characteristics of the plot. A bespoke project takes into account the features of the site, including terrain, cardinal orientation, and utility connections. Building homes in Batumi requires consideration of the region’s climatic conditions and Georgia’s seismic activity.
Ceramic blocks provide good thermal mass in walls and are suitable for multi-storey construction. Pumice blocks are the most widely used material in the region due to the availability of local raw materials. Pumice blocks are a versatile material for various types of structures in Batumi.
Aerated concrete blocks offer excellent thermal insulation, which is important for the energy efficiency of a home. Aerated concrete blocks are known for their speed of installation and ease of processing on site. Thermal insulation affects living comfort and heating costs in Batumi’s climate.
Monolithic reinforced concrete allows for complex architectural forms and non-standard layout solutions. Monolithic reinforced concrete provides seismic resistance, which is critical for construction in Georgia. The choice of technology depends on the number of storeys planned and the structural load-bearing requirements. The choice of technology also depends on the architectural design and the client’s stylistic preferences.
The Realux team includes a supply manager, foreman, site manager, estimator, and specialist tradespeople: painters, electricians, plumbers, tilers, and plasterers. The company provides warranties on all completed work and materials used, as set out in the contract. Warranties cover all types of construction and installation work and the technologies applied.
An official contract with a fixed price — ruling out unforeseen costs — is signed with every client. The fixed price is determined on the basis of a detailed estimate and a technical brief. Legal support includes assistance in obtaining all necessary permits for construction in Batumi.
The Realux team has delivered cottages of various layouts, from compact dacha-style homes to spacious houses with a garage and terrace. Experience gained in Russia since 2004 has been adapted to the specifics of construction in Georgia and the requirements of local legislation.
Building a house in Batumi requires a construction permit, which is issued by the municipality after the project documentation has been submitted. Land documents confirming ownership or lease rights are also required.
Realux provides legal support throughout the process of obtaining all necessary permits. The approval procedure can take between 2 and 6 months depending on the complexity of the project. Additional conclusions confirming compliance with Georgia's environmental and urban planning standards are also required.
The construction timeline for a turnkey home in Batumi depends on the size of the property, the chosen technology, and the complexity of the architectural design. A standard single-storey house of up to 150 square metres is built within 4–6 months.
Two-storey cottages with bespoke layouts require 8–12 months, accounting for all finishing stages. Monolithic structures extend the timeline by 20–30% due to the technological curing breaks required for concrete. Winter weather conditions can affect the schedule for exterior work.
For Batumi's climate, the optimal materials are those with strong thermal insulation properties and resistance to high humidity. Aerated concrete blocks deliver high performance thanks to their low thermal conductivity and vapour permeability.
Ceramic blocks are suitable for multi-storey construction and ensure the durability of structures. Pumice blocks remain a popular choice due to the availability of local production and their adaptation to regional conditions. The choice of material is determined by the project budget, energy efficiency requirements, and the architectural design.
Retaining walls are required when building on plots with a height difference of more than 1 metre or where there is a risk of landslide activity. In Batumi, many plots have complex terrain due to their proximity to the sea and mountain slopes. Retaining structures ensure ground stability and prevent deformation of the home's foundation.
The cost of building retaining walls is calculated individually based on the volume of earthworks involved. Designing retaining structures requires geological surveys and load calculations.
Batumi has a subtropical climate with high air humidity of up to 80% and heavy rainfall. During construction, it is essential to ensure quality waterproofing of the foundation and protection against moisture penetration into the structure.
Strong winds from the sea require reinforced fixing of roofing materials and façade elements. Temperature fluctuations from +5°C in winter to +35°C in summer affect the choice of insulation and finishing materials. The proximity to the sea causes corrosion of metal elements, making anti-corrosion protection essential.
Changes to the house design are possible before the main construction work begins, with a recalculation of cost and timelines. Layout adjustments during the wall-construction stage require approval from the designer and may increase the budget by 10–20%. Changes to load-bearing structures after construction has started are strongly inadvisable due to the disruption to the original design solutions.
Realux recommends finalising all project details at the estimate approval stage. Minor adjustments to finishing materials and engineering solutions are possible at the relevant stages of work.
Batumi is located in a seismically active zone, so homes are built to withstand earthquakes of up to magnitude 8. Monolithic reinforced concrete structures provide maximum seismic resistance thanks to their unified spatial system.
Stone and block walls are reinforced with reinforced concrete ring beams and reinforcement mesh to improve stability. Design is carried out in accordance with Georgian building codes, taking seismic loads into account. Foundations are designed with a safety margin and additional reinforcement to withstand dynamic loads.
