has been working in the home furnishing industry for so many years. Every once in a while, someone asks some questions, and even some novices can easily make mistakes in some basic decorations. Today, Sir Shenling will sort out the questions that have been asked in the past, or that you are prone to make mistakes. Let’s sort it out a little:
Question 1: Is it better to use ceramic tiles or wooden floors for floor paving?
Generally speaking, the guest kitchen and bathroom are made of ceramic tiles, and other areas such as bedrooms are made of wooden floors. However, the method is not unique. Nowadays, those who care more about indoor comfort will also choose to use wooden floors in the living room if they want to create visual comfort. If you feel comfortable and want to worry less about maintenance, you can consider wood grain tiles as appropriate.
In addition, the regular size of kitchen and bathroom floor tiles is 300×300 (㎜), but other sizes can also be considered. Pay attention to carefully choosing small area and special-shaped tiles. One is to consider the gaps and troublesome cleaning, and the other is that the labor cost will be higher.
It is best not to choose solid wood flooring. It is expensive and requires more effort in daily maintenance. Just choose ordinary laminate flooring. If you really like solid wood, you can consider using it alone in the bedroom.
Question 2: What kind of board is better for whole house customization?
Nowadays, most of the whole house customization uses particle boards. As long as you choose a good brand and guarantee good after-sales service, you don’t have to worry too much. But if you have a more sufficient budget, you can consider multi-layer solid wood, or use particle boards for wardrobes and multi-layer boards for cabinets.
It is best to decide on the whole house customization before installation. After all, it takes a month or two for the manufacturer to produce customization. There is no need to delay the construction period to wait. In addition, there are some details for everyone to consider:
●Determine the style in advance and reserve it. Be sure to ask clearly about the number of sockets, especially the number of drawers. Adding one more will cost hundreds of dollars. Make sure the brand, quantity, size, etc. are clear. If you are not careful, you may add an item.
● Choose glass doors carefully for wardrobes, as they will not leave any marks. It is a bit messy and can be seen at a glance, but it can only be said that it is more suitable for hard-working people
● The U-shaped layout is the best storage in the kitchen of the same area. If conditions permit, part of the entire wall can be used for storage
● Don’t force it in a small kitchen, give it proper consideration Refrigerators and other large appliances can be moved out of sideboards
●Be careful when selecting rebounders and marbles for handleless cabinet doors, as they can easily break over time. Consider other methods
●Don't save on cloakrooms and storage rooms if they can be made, even if they are smaller. , it’s better than knocking on the cabinets all the time.
Question 3: Should I use marble or quartz stone for kitchen countertops?
Don't hesitate, just choose quartz stone. There is no need to consider marble, terrazzo, , etc. They are expensive and impractical, especially natural stone, which will easily bleed and leave marks later.
Quartz stone is usually 1.5cm for kitchen countertops (note that it only has 4 thicknesses: 1.5, 1.8, 2, 3cm). Don’t even think about other thicknesses, they are all fake. In addition, good quartz stone hardness High, corrosion resistance is good, even if it is burned with fire or soaked in white vinegar, it will not react.
Question 4: What material is good for the wall?
pursues high cost performance and practicality, consider latex paint, and according to the home decoration style, you can consider wood veneer on the wall, but you need to carefully choose art paint , microcement, rock slab , luxury stone , etc. It’s not bad, it’s expensive!
Question 5: What should I pay attention to when building custom cabinets on the balcony?
Protruding balconies should pay attention to load-bearing issues, but these are relatively rare nowadays. However, the window in front of the window is an exposed area, so attention should be paid to sun protection. Try to avoid choosing white cabinet doors to avoid yellowing over time.
If the balcony cabinet is equipped with a washing machine + dryer, it is best to purchase it as a package. Pay attention to the placement of the clothes drying rack so as not to affect the opening and closing of the cabinet door on the top side.
Question 6: Is it necessary to provide zero cold water in the whole house?
To be honest, it is not necessary for ordinary families. If it is a large house, you can consider it as appropriate. It is the same as disinfection cabinets and dishwashers.
Question 7: What details should be paid attention to when decorating the kitchen?
There is nothing wrong with conventional decoration, but it is not easy to use. We pay attention to making adjustments according to personal needs and budget, for example:
●It is best to use large ceramic tiles or enamel boards on the wall in front of the gas stove, which is oil-proof and stain-proof, and can be cleaned in the future. It is more worry-free. If you want to save trouble, you can also buy oil-proof stickers. If they get dirty, you can just replace them without worrying about them.
● It is best to choose sliding doors without floor rails. They are more worry-free to take care of and are not easy to hide dust.
●Choose a large double sink for large kitchens, and a large single sink for ordinary families, with a telescopic faucet, which makes daily cleaning more worry-free
●Don’t choose skin-sensitive films for cabinet doors, which are comfortable to touch, but are annoying to use and tend to stick to oil stains and leave marks
●Brick cabinets have poor flexibility, and it is more difficult to find a good craftsman. It is better to choose customized cabinets
●The wall cabinets are not equipped with microwave ovens and other electrical appliances. Move them downwards appropriately to avoid burns,
●Be careful when installing metal baskets, and the price Expensive, inconvenient to pull out after a long time, and difficult to clean after being stained with oil.
Question 8: Are large floor-to-ceiling windows good?
Generally, homes should be installed with caution. Although the indoor lighting is good, the ventilation effect will be greater. Some of the common ones you see are basically large apartments, and they have installed the fresh air system , so there is no need to worry about ventilation problems.
Large-area floor-to-ceiling windows are troublesome to transport and expensive. You also need to pay attention to sun protection issues, and even subsequent installation. Generally, freight elevators and stairs cannot be used, and you have to use a crane, which is too troublesome.
