A systemic defect in a residential building is a defect not caused by the occupants but originates from improperly designed materials, details, construction techniques, or failure to follow the planned construction process.

Systemic defects can be remedied according to current regulations through state support in two ways:

1. Subsidy under Act No. 134/2013 Coll. - Act on subsidies for housing development and social housing, which amends and supplements Act No. 443/2010 Coll.
    
2. Loan from the State Housing Development Fund under Act No. 150/2013 Coll. on the State Housing Development Fund, which repeals Act No. 607/2003 Coll. on the State Housing Development Fund, as subsequently amended. The related legally binding regulations are also repealed, i.e., Government Regulation No. 432/2007 Coll. and the Decree of the Ministry of Construction and Regional Development of the Slovak Republic No. 582/2007 Coll.
