When decorating for the first time, it is easy to have problems with the details, especially if you encounter a slippery decoration company that cuts corners during construction and will trick you without negotiation!
Today I will share with you some things that you should pay attention to when decorating. I hope you will read more before decorating and try not to step into pitfalls!
The materials of electric pipes are different.
The materials of electric pipes should be kept consistent during hydropower transformation. For example, if the developer provides PVC pipes as a gift, PVC pipes must also be used during the secondary renovation. Otherwise, it will be difficult to achieve an overall ground connection, leaving hidden dangers.
Wall putty and glue
Wall putty, some workers will mix glue into the putty, which is claimed to be the industry standard, but in fact it is just lazy and saves trouble. Putty and glue can enhance the stickiness and better adhere to the wall, but using it on a large area will definitely cause pollution. You must be wary of this lazy behavior when decorating.
Hot and cold water pipes are installed incorrectly
Hot water pipes can be used as cold water pipes, but cold water pipes must not be used as hot water pipes. If they are installed incorrectly, you may suffer after you move in. In addition, the distance between hot and cold water pipes should usually be about 10cm, and they cannot be installed in the same groove. Don't be fooled by sloppy workers.
The waterproof height of the bathroom is not enough
The waterproof height must meet the standard, and you must not brush less. Under normal circumstances, the waterproofing height of the wet area of the bathroom should be more than 1.8 meters, and the thickness should not be less than 1.5mm. The waterproofing of the dry area should be at least about 30cm, and the waterproofing should be brushed twice. After it is completely dry, do the closed water test . No step can be missed.
The wall should not be roughened before tiling
The wall should be roughened before tiling in the bathroom. The purpose of this is to enhance surface adhesion and make the later tiling more stable and reliable. If you lay the tiles without roughening, the risk of the tiles hollowing out and falling off is high.
The sewer pipes are not protected
Many people find that the sewer pipes are blocked after they move in. In fact, this is the trouble caused by the lack of protection during the early construction. Residues fell into the pipeline during construction and workers did not clean them in time, forcing subsequent use. Therefore, the pipelines must be protected before construction to prevent trouble from the source.
The painting process is wrong
When painting the wall, "one base and two sides" must be done properly. Workers cannot be lazy, and the topcoat must wait for the primer to dry before applying it. It cannot be painted quickly to meet the construction deadline. In addition, it is not advisable to add water to dark latex paint, otherwise it will cause a large color difference, ruining the appearance and wall.
Conclusion
In short, when decorating, everyone should go to the construction site regularly to supervise the work, pay more attention to details, make adjustments at any time when problems arise, and don’t leave everything to the decoration company.
