Today I will pick out the 8 most representative decoration pitfalls for you. See how many of them overlap with those in your home, and how many of them are suitable for you if you want to do them? What is not done can be regarded as a stop loss for you.
1. Not looking for a decoration company
Looking for a decoration company will not only cost more, but more importantly, you will not be able to fight their tricks. I remember that when I found a decoration company before, it was obviously the fault of the workers, but the decoration company I kept practicing Tai Chi, and in the end I wanted to terminate the decoration contract, but the company refused to give me nearly 40,000 yuan. In the end, I found the foreman to install it myself, which was much more satisfactory.
2. It is very important not to look for acquaintances
Believe me, you really don’t need to look for acquaintances when decorating. The biggest problem with looking for acquaintances is that you are cutting corners and can’t tell people. Even if you plan to break up with the acquaintances, you won’t be able to tell them in the end. It would be more embarrassing than ordinary strange workers. After all, everyone knows the basics. Looking for an acquaintance is really a matter of fortune and is not recommended.
3. Do not make a niche in the shower
Do you know how important it is to not make a niche in the shower? After making the alcove, the space was very tight, and the shower pipe was buried very deep. Later, I even added an extension pipe. Oh, yes, the position of the alcove in my house happened to block the shower door, causing the shower door to become smaller. Okay, all this for a niche, is it worth it?
4. Kitchen and bathroom doors must be ultra-white glass
Kitchen and bathroom doors, especially the more popular Changhong glass and oil sand doors, must be ultra-white, not ordinary glass, otherwise you will find , it looks green after installation, which is really unacceptable.
5. If you don’t have a main light, don’t listen to random designs.
If you want to get good results without a main light, you must find a specialized lighting designer, whether it’s a half-baked designer from a decoration company or someone who just figures it out by yourself. The lights are easy to flip over, which would have lowered the floor height. Coupled with the unreasonable lighting layout, it will be a problem in the end, and it will look awkward no matter how you look at it.
6. There are too many water and electricity pits
Water and electricity pits may account for 20% of the decoration process. The whole house has 4 square meters, horizontal and vertical lines, and fuzzy positioning of the total price. They are all water and electricity pits. The correct approach It should be 4 square meters for the kitchen and bathroom, point to point. Determine the location, material brand, and total price in advance.
7. Carpenters make cabinets
I found that many people like to find carpenters to make cabinets, but can you really trust the skills of carpenters? This is a matter of one foot in the sky and one foot on the ground, and you may step into pitfalls at every turn. Take my advice, even if you find a local small factory to make custom cabinets, don't just hire a carpenter to build the cabinets.
8. Don’t install yourself easily.
Self-installation can indeed save money and save a lot of money, but if you are not particularly free, self-installation is really a source of suffering. If you have something to do, you will have to run from work to home. , if you are already busy at work, the decoration as a whole is really not worth it to make you angry...
