The decoration concepts of a few owners and designers can be summarized in one word: demolition! In their eyes, it is not easy to decorate if all the walls are not removed. But if you are really dissatisfied with the apartment type, wouldn’t it be better to not buy this house at the beginning?
In fact, excessive demolition of construction is not only very unfriendly to the wallet, but also may pose some safety hazards. Especially the 6 places below, please don’t tear it down again!
Do not remove the door
All doors should be removed as much as possible. We know that besides load-bearing walls, beams, columns, etc. cannot be removed because they also have load-bearing capabilities.
is above the door, and a load-bearing beam is often hidden. Demolition of this beam will affect the stability of the house structure and harm others and yourself. If the door is not suitable, you can block it. Open another door on other walls, but you cannot directly remove the entire wall where the door is located.
Do not remove bay windows
In the past two years, the decoration plan for "demolition of bay windows" has become popular, and even a special "demolition of bay windows" has been available. But in fact, it is not recommended to remove the bay window. Balancing windows are divided into external bay windows and inner bay windows:
External bay windows cannot be removed, which is also mentioned in the "Demolition of Bay Window Guide". The outer bay window is protruding, and the bay window is empty, and after it is removed, it will lead directly to the outdoors. Many people say that the bay window inside
can be removed. But when actually dismantling, you will find that the bay window is full of steel bars - the window sill part of the inner bay window, which also has load-bearing capacity (just like a balcony). After it is removed, the entire bay window may fall.
Do not remove the entire wall
Reopen a window or a door on the wall, it is OK. But if you want to tear down the entire wall, I advise you to be cautious:
The current house is becoming more and more secretive the more you build. From the appearance, you can't tell where the load-bearing wall is, where the beam is, and where the pillars are. But generally there will always be a load-bearing structure on a whole wall. Demolition of the entire wall will inevitably damage the load-bearing structure.
Some are partition walls that can be dismantled on the left, and the load-bearing wall on the right; some are partition walls on the bottom and beams on the top; some are partition walls on the whole side, but a column suddenly appears in the middle - narrowing the scope of wall removal is the safest way.
does not remove the original wires
Some people will remove all the wires in the room and replace them with those they bought by themselves when decorating. It also said: "The quality of the things provided by the developer is not good."
In fact, during the construction process, the circuit needs to be jointly accepted by multiple departments. If even the basic requirements of wire quality cannot be met, no one dares to sign the certificate of qualification. On the contrary, the wires bought by the owner themselves may buy "non-standard" products, leaving hidden dangers.
hydropower renovation, the number and location of sockets are modified, rather than the entire set of lines. Don’t listen to decoration companies’ fooling around, changing lines throughout the house is a “income-generating method” that has been popular for many years.
does not remove the drain port
0 All drain ports in the unfinished house are not recommended to be removed. If it is not available, you can temporarily seal it. When renovating or selling a house in the future, it can be opened and used.
Some users will choose to remove the original drain pipe and then re-create the pipe: the distance, position, diameter, angle, etc. of the original drain pipe are all calculated.
The newly laid drain pipe can only ensure that it is in a suitable position. The pressure in the pipe will definitely increase, and the drainage effect will definitely not be better than the original drainage pipe. Therefore, you should try to use the original drain pipe. When it cannot be used, you should not dismantle the original drain pipe, leaving a way out for yourself.
Do not remove the guardrail
Before removing the guardrail, you might as well think about this question: Why install guardrails at home? Because the national standard stipulates that the height of all windowsills is limited to the minimum: if the height is below 24m, the windowsill shall not be less than 1.05m; if the height is above 24m, the windowsill shall not be less than 1.1m.
Some bay windows and floor-to-ceiling windows have relatively low windows, so they need to be filled with guardrails.In other words, hitting the guardrail at home is because I am afraid that someone will accidentally fall out of the window.
Don’t trust your own window glass too much. That set of glass does not meet the needs of guardrail glass and cannot guarantee our safety. If you don’t trust the guardrail given by the developer, you can change it yourself, but you must not install the guardrail!
