About repair and quality of services

Repair of old buildings and facades of buildings is the fly in the ointment, which is located in a barrel of honey from an institution such as the Demidov hospital in Nizhny Tagil.

Old buildings are history, but many more problems: narrow, dark corridors, crumbling plaster, bad communications. Although there are many reconstructions, repairs, upgrades, but they are not enough.
