Abstract Due to insufficient reflection of reality on the system and effectiveness of incentives, all certifications granted to the present since the implementation of the system are accepted as the normal class. The normal class has an advantage that the burden of constructors for additional expenses is low so that it can be implemented without burden but in fact there is a limit to consider the normal level as long-life housing and if only essential items are selected and accepted as the normal level, long-life housing may become less meaningful. Therefore, it is necessary to re-establish the evaluation items and standards of long-life housing certification system in order to improve the quality level of long-life housing. In this study, (1) the evaluation standards for long-life housing certification system were re-established and the relevant literature and precedent studies were considered, and (2) problems were examined through the current status analysis of certification acquisition. (3) An expert consultation meeting targeting the relevant experts from construction companies, design companies and long-life certification authorities was held to re-establish the evaluation items and standards for the certification system. The improvement plans for each item including durability, variability and easy maintenance drawn accordingly were presented and the measures to improve the level of long-life housing which was in the normal level were searched. The purpose of long-life housing is to save limited resources and energy, improve the value of individual assets and save the housing management expenses for the people by securing the existing housing of good quality at a national level. Therefore, a phased approach to improve problems shown in the present stage and to prepare efficient systems should be implemented in order to revitalize long-life housing agreed and required by the people.
