It is very expensive to make a new, comfortable and safe elevator and it requires almost a million UAH. Despite privatization of almost every apartment, we understand that people can't afford such repairs at their cost, as well as asphalting near houses. Therefore, we will help. Therefore, we will help. And this is an important help! For example, in a city like Dnipro, 17 elevators were overhauled last year, we will do 105 in just one year,” Mayor Kostiantyn Pavlov said.
