In Krasnoyarsk, in a nine-story building with 292 apartments, elevators have not been working for more than a year. The management company says they can't fix them themselves. It is also impossible to speed up the renovation.
We are talking about a hostel in Metalurgov, 28A in Green Grove. The elevators there were turned off in September 2025. Among the residents are pensioners, the disabled and small children.
The house was monitored by the "Spirit of Changes" management company. The contract with her had already ended, but other organizations did not want to take over the problematic object.
Director Yuri Shukorb told the reporter that the residents continue to be blamed for this very reason. The elevators, according to him, are unusable, but they cannot be repaired by the company itself.
"We have an inspection that the elevators are not suitable for use. I also wrote letters to the technical supervision, the construction ministry and the capital repair fund. Everything that could be done, whatever was in our abilities, we did it. Regarding the replacement of all these gearboxes and engines, it is no longer within our authority," responded Yuri Shokurov.
The elevators in the nine-story building will only be replaced in 12-14 years. The management company is obliged to repair the equipment itself, the Krasnoyarsk Renovation Fund reported.
The elevators were installed in 2009; According to the regional plan, their replacement is expected only in the years 2038-2040.
