Many people buy houses. When talking about decoration, they often worry about whether to decorate themselves or find a decoration company. Some people often choose to pretend to save money, but can you save money by pretending to do it yourself?
Based on my experience of decorating two houses in 5 years and struggling with countless pitfalls, self-decoration does not necessarily save money.
Although some people can install a home for 50,000 or 80,000 yuan, they think they can feel that they have no problem watching a few videos to avoid pitfalls, and there is no need to spend money to find a decoration company.
In fact, decoration is full of pitfalls. Without the guidance of professionals and lack of decoration knowledge, self-decoration will not only waste time and energy, but also invest more and more. Before installing yourself, I hope everyone can ask yourself if you can do the following 4 points. If you can't do it, there is a high possibility that your install will not save a penny. It not only makes the pit but also delays the construction period, and there is no after-sales guarantee.
1. Do you have enough time and energy to
. There are too many things to do for self-pretending, including brand, material, layout, and various countless details that need to be considered. Except for not having to do it yourself, you have to do everything yourself, including finding workers, buying materials, planning, supervising and accepting processes, etc., you need to do it yourself.
If you encounter a situation where the wire is missing for a while, nails are missing for a while, can you be on call?
Don’t believe it. This is just a small thing. There are all shortages of cement, yellow sand, ceramic tiles, boards, and paint. Do you have the energy to take care of it?
The most tiring thing about self-pretending is that it is more harsh and has to fight wits and courage with the workers. Many of the workers are very good nowadays. If no one is watching, you will cut corners and be perfunctory. I believe that all those who have been decorated should have experience, and I am too tired. So before deciding to pretend, ask yourself if you have the time and energy.
2. Do you understand or not
Do you understand or not? Will you supervise the worker and communicate?
Electricians, bricklayers, carpenters, and oil workers must worry about every step. The most important thing is to carefully control the cooperation between each type of work and rely on yourself to care about the whole process.
, especially many craftsmanship in some small county towns have not been done before, so they have to study it together and think about saving money. If you meet unreliable decoration workers, there are many people who put pigeons on the way. Not only will the construction period be delayed, but you will spend a lot of money!
3. Will you plan and design
Decoration is not as simple as painting the wall and laying bricks on furniture. If you don’t understand the planning, the consequences will be one pit after another, let alone design.
asks you how can you have five internal organs ?
4. Is there any reliable master who knows
Are there any reliable masters who knows? Can after-sales guarantee be achieved?
Many people find their own masters in the community for decoration. Maybe you don’t have any problems on the surface, but problems will follow in half a year.
socket is out of power, the toilet is leaking, the tiles are falling off, the cabinet door is loose, and the paint is cracked. Can you still contact the workers at that time for repair? Will he admit his mistake six months ago? And give you free repairs? How about after-sales service depends entirely on the conscience of the decoration master.
Another situation is to find acquaintances to decorate. Many people think that decorating means finding acquaintances. If you have a good relationship, you will be more concerned about decorating, and at least you won’t be cheated.
But have you ever thought about why many people who are in decoration do acquaintance business? Because of poor skills, there is no work outside, such people will never be ruthless when they cheat people, but because they are familiar people, you can't even say anything, you can only break your teeth and swallow it in your stomach. You also give a lot of money and don't do well in your work, so you're just angry.
Really good technology, people who are acquaintances are the same as those who are outsiders, so is it really necessary to find an acquaintance in decoration?
Summary of the article
If you can't do any of the above four points, then don't choose to pretend by yourself easily. Not only is it hard to say, the money is still unfair, so it's better to consider finding a decoration company to have half a pack.
