Decoration of a house involves many projects and materials, and some aspects can save money, but it is ignored by many owners, and the decoration company will not take the initiative to remind the owners, which will eventually lead to overspending of the decoration budget. So where can you save money when decorating?
1, hydropower installation and modification
hydropower transformation is a basic project and a hidden project is a process that is easy to overspend. If you want to save money when decorating water and electricity, we must first understand the charging method. Generally, there are three ways to count;
1. Priced by meter. This method of point-to-point construction will save money. However, not all areas live in it. For example, the apartment with floor heating in the northern region. If you do point-to-point construction, it will damage the power pipe if you need to trough it.
2. Priced by square meters. This method requires you to find out whether it is calculated based on the area within the set or the building area. If it is calculated based on the building area, it is basically a pit. Just find the next one.
3. Price is calculated by point position. This method is calculated by the number of switches, sockets and lamps. For example, if you change water and electricity by one meter, you must calculate it by one point. This billing method is the most popular for decoration companies, because what saves this is materials and labor, and the owner should spend no less money.
summary; water and electricity renovation is billed by meter, so choose point-to-point construction, but pay attention to making the point before starting construction, otherwise it will cost two or three hundred yuan if it exceeds one point. When priced by area, you must first determine what the price is half-modification and what the price is full modification?
2. Choice of ceramic tile materials
tile is a material that is used more frequently in home decoration . Ceramic tile is also the first main material to buy in decoration. There are two aspects to the cost of decoration tiles;
1. The material cost of ceramic tile. If you want to save money, you don’t have to rely too much on big brands when choosing tiles. Some mid- and low-end tiles can also buy high-quality tiles.
So how can I buy such tiles? First, you can go to local ceramic tile wholesale stores. These wholesale stores are all warehouse sales, and the prices are much cheaper.
2. There are many merchants selling ceramic tiles on the live broadcast platform. You can pay more attention to it and compare it. Generally, there are two places for ceramic tiles, one is Guangdong and the other is Shandong. Because of soil quality, Guangdong bricks are better than Shandong bricks, so you can pay more attention to local live broadcast merchants in Guangdong. Some live broadcasts will be sold at factory prices and will be very cheap. However, online shopping for ceramic tiles requires confirmation whether the merchant includes shipping fees, tiles upstairs, and damage replacement issues. You must ask clearly in advance. The other aspect of
tiles involves manual laying costs;
tiles are generally laid with floor tiles of 800x800 in the living room, and kitchen and bathroom generally choose 300x600 in the kitchen and bathroom. This is a regular size and is all basic quotation. If you choose 600x1200 or 750x1500 tiles, then the laying cost will be increased. In addition, if you are making tiles, you will be very expensive, whether it is artificial or material. Using large tiles also requires purchasing tile glue separately and adding more money. Therefore, the tiles are 8000 specifications, and the kitchen and bathrooms choose 300x600 tiles, which is the most cost-effective without making parquet shapes.
If you want to save money when decorating a house, you must pay attention to these places. You must spend the money you should spend, and you must save the money you can save.
