Why do we have to pay a mortgage and buy a house while working from 9 to 5? Of course, I want to have a small home that is in line with my own preferences and provides peace of mind and comfort. But when you are so exhausted from working to make money, how can you have the time and energy to understand all aspects of decoration?
Let’s take the house decoration process as an example. Many friends who have experienced decoration know that if this process is wrong, it will cost an extra rework fee, and it will be far away from us moving into our new home. A big chunk. Next, let me briefly explain the general process of decoration construction !
If you choose a decoration company to carry out the construction, then the decoration method is basically divided into two types: half-inclusive and full-inclusive . Both of these methods require you to purchase furniture and home appliances by yourself. The difference between them is that: for full package, you only need to wait for the house to be decorated, while for half package, you also need to provide the main materials needed in the decoration process (for example: kicker Scaffolding , wall tiles, toilets, hardware, etc.).
After you have selected a decoration company, made a specific house design, obtained a property decoration permit and other preliminary preparations, you can start the decoration construction!
The first step in the renovation process: main body demolition and modification
Renovate the structure of the house based on the previous house design drawings. This stage includes but is not limited to demolishing walls, patching walls, shoveling wall coverings, removing heaters, and replacing plastic steel windows . It should be noted that some communities cannot be demolished and modified. It is prudent to report to the property management company and obtain the support of the property management company before starting construction.
The second step of the renovation project: hydropower renovation
Plumbing engineering materials are brought in, grooves are made on the floor, walls, and tops, water pipelines are laid, circuit wiring is carried out, and water supply and power testing are carried out. At this stage, you must fully reserve the number and location of sockets. Once you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to add sockets!
The third step of the grand undertaking of decoration: Masonry comes in.
Ceramic tiles, cement and other materials come in, kitchens and bathrooms are waterproofed, ceramic wall tiles are laid, and completion acceptance is completed (the laying of the floor is generally left to the later stage of the decoration to avoid the impact of other construction) the beauty of the floor). At this stage, the waterproof test must be taken seriously. Once there is a problem with the waterproofing, it will empty your wallet at least, and damage the neighborhood relationship at worst.
