Let’s just say! The treasure blogger who selfishly didn’t want to share it was actually discovered by you!
Who is Madame Rolandot?
- the famous blogger of "The Wrongful Area", his family has a big villa, but every decoration is crazy.
She was deceived one by one by the agency, decoration company , skirting workers, seamstresses and cleaners. After a house was renovated, the amount of money that was cheated was far more than 100,000 yuan. It made me anxious and angry for her!
Accurate summary of fans
Ms. Luo is very calm. She recorded her experience of stepping on a thunderstorm into a video and told it in a "die or die" tone, which made people laugh. She can be called "Lu Xun in the decoration industry".
After reading this, I can say that I admire this sister’s good temper very much. How can I resist cursing when I encounter these decoration pits!
01
The pitfalls of her own decoration
One after another
The first pitfall of Ms. Luo's decoration: a simple frameless door.
Take a look at this internet celebrity blogger’s design, isn’t it beautiful?
Beautiful doors are all replaced. Each frameless door requires a budget of 2,000 yuan, while six doors require 12,000 yuan.
However, after installing the door frame, the thickness of the solid wood skirting exceeds the thickness of the door frame. The project manager stated that the aluminum alloy skirting should be replaced with .
is impossible. Ms. Luo went to a certain store to place an order. The price of 30/meter will cost the entire house more than 10,000 yuan! The
project manager introduced a familiar guru to do this. Without saying a word, the master cut all the baseboards into tofu cubes and nailed them to the wall with an air gun.
Once nailed, you can't hang the panel at all. Isn’t the floor in Ms. Lairo’s house uneven? (People spend tens of thousands of dollars on leveling, leveling and self-leveling, okay?)
Ms. Luo was so angry that she could only let the master go and find another master to come and drive the nails on the wall too firmly. , the nail fell out of the wall after prying it off, so the painter could touch up the putty.
This wall is really terrible and makes people feel sad to see it.
Due to the large workload, it is impossible to complete it in one day. During the festival, the new master said it would be installed after the festival.
Result...Master could not be contacted after the festival! Replacing people with half a wall is not good.
Seven or eight days later, the master suddenly came back to work. Two days of work was delayed for half a month.
Things are not over yet. After all the work was completed, Ms. Luo discovered that the quantity reported by the project manager was wrong, resulting in an additional 70 meters of material.
These materials are enough to accommodate a 200-square-meter room and are worth 3,000 yuan (the store will return them after trouble).
After the new skirting is installed, it will move when in contact and collapse together with the wall paint .
It is said that frameless doors are not protected by door covers and can easily scratch the wall paint when items are put in and out. Color differences may occur during partial paint repairs. Renovating an entire house and repainting the walls is a hassle.
Because the bathroom and door cover lines are not frameless, the vision is uneven. The frameless door cost a lot of money and had been sitting around for a long time, only to be found unrepairable.
There is a slate table in the kitchen. Generally speaking, there are no problems other than expensive ones. I searched and found the china collapsed and the car overturned.
When Ms. Luo encountered this situation, one of them did not hold the bowl firmly and hit the table, causing the porcelain to break on the edge of the table.
I asked the master to repair it and told him to be careful. The master said that you can rest assured, but cannot hold the wrench of . "Pop", it fell!
The master explained that the hardness of rock slab is very high and the edges can easily collapse. Be careful not to touch the edges.
From then on, Ms. Luo carefully served this big brand slate, but one day while carrying a cast iron pot and putting it on the stove, she accidentally touched the countertop again - well, the porcelain broke again!
The gaps to be repaired can be repaired, polished, glued, tinted, painted one by one according to the pattern, and finally sprayed with glaze to seal the color.
costs 200 yuan to refill one time, which is really expensive.
If frameless doors and rock slabs are troublesome because they are delicate, then how did an ordinary craft like aluminum alloy fence turn over? !
Frameless doors and rock slabs are so delicate that people don’t have to worry. Aluminum alloy fence, a common technology, how can the car be turned over? !
Look at the balcony fence. The color is right, the material is solid, and the installation is solid. At first glance, is it okay?
But! The shop owner forgot to deduct the height of the platform under the railing! How high are the railings!
Ms. Luo stood in front of the railing, which was just above her nose. Looking out, it looks like this: "Perfect" blocks the view...
Ms. Luo said that every time you lean on the fence and look out, you should stretch your toes and do stretching exercises.
There are many similar decoration errors, such as workers doing ground protection when painting the walls, underground garage fences forgetting to leave the door, various cabinets openings with the wrong size...
The key is that Ms. Luo has a gentle temperament and is talkative. With money, she is a fat sheep in the eyes of the decoration company.
02 You must not be "good-tempered" when decorating.
Ms. Luo's video gives us two biggest warnings:
① Never believe in the so-called "professional";
② Don't have a good temper. If there is a problem, confront it head-on. Do it again in time and don't make do with it. .
takes the video of beautiful stitching on her tiles as an example. Every time I watch it, I get angry.
sewing shop recommended epoxy colored sand to Ms. Luo. There is no color difference between this material and ceramic tiles.
's actual on-site quotation is 1,300 meters, totaling 18,000 meters.
Ms. Luo wanted to know why it was so expensive. The other side said they were professionals. The raw materials are expensive and the process is complicated. She introduced a couple to do this.
Ms. Luo got up early the next day to wait, but at 10:30, the couple came to clean the toilet and quickly had lunch.
After lunch, the two of them will take a break for lunch. They would sleep until two o'clock before cleaning. They will officially start caulking at four o'clock and finish the work at six o'clock.
The accompanying salesman quietly told Ms. Luo that a bathroom was just filled in today, and all three floors had to be installed. The cost per person per day is 500, and the cost of light and beauty sewing is more than 18,000!
One day, I could earn 500 yuan after officially working for two hours. Sister, are you in need of someone? I think I can.
But even with such expensive labor costs, Meizuo still overturned.
But with such expensive labor costs, Meizuo still overturned.
Salesperson distributes materials. Husbands and wives do the caulking and women do the wiping. Men work faster than women. In hot weather, the seam sealant sticks to the matte tiles and cannot be wiped off from time to time!
Especially the balcony tiles. They cannot stick to seams, nor can they rub off from seams. When all the joint beautifier has dried, the tiles will be discarded and the tiles must be re-waterproofed.
The end result is the husband and wife coming home from get off work at sunset. Ms. Tulluro took a mop and dabbed at the beautiful seams until the light came on.
The root cause of the overturning of the beautiful seam is that epoxy colored sand has construction temperature requirements and cannot be constructed in Changsha's high temperature weather. About
, the "professional" material salesman didn't know about it, nor did the sewing workers, the customer checked the information himself. What an irony.
Ms. Luo also spent nearly 20,000 US dollars to customize the curtains of the entire room.
Before customizing, she told the shopping guide that her children were allergic to dust and the curtains should be washed once a month. The washing machine should be loaded one item at a time.
The height of the cloth is 2.8 meters, and the two windows are super high. The shopping guide said it should be done horizontally.
Ms. Luo thinks this is wrong. If it is made horizontally, will it not affect the sense of overhanging ?
The other party patted his chest and promised not to.
As soon as the curtains are hung, they will overturn on the spot, and the curtains will float instantly when they hit the horizontal surface.
Ms. Luo asked the shopping guide what to do. The shopping guide said that when you draw the curtains, fold them one by one and tie them with a bandage~
? ? ? Are you sick? Aren't you tired from folding pleats every day?
The shopping guide said that you can take it back and make a set, but the problem is that the curtains need to be washed several times to recover, and this set of clothes is not permanent.
Speaking of machine washability, this shopping guide adds: This curtain is not machine washable. It needs to be washed by hand~
Ms. Luo: I made it clear before ordering that it should be washed once a month. Now you're telling me it can't be washed?
Under Ms. Luo’s question, the other party said directly: You said it before.
There are two door-to-door fees.
After that, Ms. Luo revealed her identity as a home furnishing blogger. Unexpectedly, the attitude of the curtain shop has changed a lot. If she's not satisfied, she said, she'll redo it, waiving the setup fee and the $400 door-to-door fee.
To be honest, when I saw this, I felt helpless and sad, just like Ms. Luo.
If there is no "power" and "ability", can ordinary owners realize this situation?
The decoration industry is a mixed bag. There are many hidden pits waiting for owners to jump into. Lightning protection work is endless day and night. Ms. Luo cannot accumulate so much material.
Today, the editor of Fuguan Decoration will share with you the key points of avoiding pitfalls in the decoration of various spaces. They are summarized from the experience of people who have done it. For those of you who have not decorated yet, let me see if I can help you.
Entrance hall
Although the entrance hall space is not large, reasonable decoration design can provide a lot of convenience for daily life. As a place for taking off shoes and hanging clothes when entering and exiting, the most common pitfalls of the entrance are summarized as follows:
1, The cabinet is not left empty, and the design of the entrance cabinet is unreasonable
Tips for avoiding pitfalls: Do not choose a fully enclosed floor-to-ceiling entrance cabinet. Leave the middle or part of the cabinet empty to facilitate the placement of random items. Leave about 15cm empty at the bottom to facilitate storage and replacement of frequently worn shoes.
2 and do not have a shoe-changing area. Putting on and taking off shoes creates a "golden rooster independence"
pitfall avoidance suggestions: can be combined with the entrance cabinet to design an integrated shoe-changing stool, or you can choose a finished shoe-changing stool. If the space is small, you can also install a folding wall Shoe changing stool.
3, The lighting layout is unreasonable, and there are many blind spots for lighting.
Suggestions for avoiding pits: In addition to the basic light source at the top, light strips can be installed at the bottom of the entrance cabinet and inside the cabinet to add auxiliary light sources.
Living room
The living room is the main activity place for the family. It is also a place where guests gather, entertain, relax and other functions. These pitfalls in living room decoration should be paid attention to:

2, TV background walls are too complicated, expensive and impractical.
Pitfall suggestions: Don’t blindly follow the trend of TV background walls with complex shapes. Some shapes are particularly easy to become outdated and easy to hide dust. Daily cleaning is very laborious. It is recommended that the TV background wall be made as simple as possible. For example, many young people now like to paint it directly with latex paint. Not only is the construction fast and not easy to overturn, but it is also economical, beautiful and easy to take care of.
3, The sockets are too few and not enough.
Suggestions for avoiding pitfalls: According to daily living habits, enough sockets should be reasonably reserved before decoration. For example, sockets can be set on both sides of the sofa so that mobile phones can be charged at any time; ensure that the TV There are enough sockets such as bits, broadband interfaces, routers, etc. Otherwise, all kinds of wire pulling in the later stage will really make people crazy.

In addition, it is also recommended to install night light in the bedroom, which automatically senses when you wake up at night to avoid dazzling the eyes when turning on the headlights.
3. Open wardrobe is very easy to collect dust.
Suggestions for avoiding pits: The bedroom wardrobe is at the top, which can maximize the use of space for storage, and there is no sanitary dead corner at the top, making it more convenient to clean. In addition, try not to use glass doors for wardrobes, which can easily leave fingerprints, are difficult to maintain, and tend to make the interior messy.

3. The wall cabinet does not reach the top, and it is easy to accumulate dust and is difficult to clean.

Bathroom

1. If the waterproofing project is not done well, there will be endless troubles

It depends on whether the wall is a load-bearing wall, and the shower area wall must be waterproofed at least Make it 1.8 meters. In addition, a 24-hour water closure test must be done: all drains are blocked, and the water storage height is not less than 20mm. After 24 hours, if the water level does not drop significantly, it is qualified.
2, install above-the-counter basin , it is very easy to harbor dirt and even leakage and mold
