In this world, there are really many unscrupulous merchants! When decorating, each one is under the guise of "good for you", in fact, it is deliberately digging a pit, and you spend more money.
I myself have suffered losses on this, so I have a deep understanding. Therefore, today I deliberately took stock of 5 decoration scams that are hidden very deeply, and it is recommended that you take a look at it and make a reference to prevent the leeks from being cut during the decoration!
Wall leveling to add money
Before painting the wall, scraping putty to level, this is the most basic process, afraid that the unscrupulous oiler leveling process is perfunctory, making the wall uneven and ruining the house.
When I was renovating my house, I met such a worker, let him do a good job again, he shirked his responsibility, blamed me for not communicating requirements in the early stage; and said that he could give me rework, but I had to add money to make people live.
Later, he still found a master to work again, and only then did he save the wall. Now that I think about it, the workers at that time were lazy and slippery, just thinking about taking money.
Through this time, I also gave me a lesson: when looking for oil workers in decoration, we must find reliable ones. As long as you are meticulous and patient enough, the wall surface is polished a few times, and there is no such thing as leveling!
Diatom mud is environmentally friendly and formaldehyde-free, which is better than latex paint
This is a trick that some renovation companies make good use of. Touting the advantages of diatom mud:
- The material is pure natural, environmentally friendly and pollution-free
- The upper wall will breathe, which can adsorb formaldehyde and reduce the release of pollution
- Adjust the temperature and humidity
- Not easy to get dirty, not ash absorbed, easy to clean
- ......
The fact that there is no pollution alone can make the owner's heart move. But as long as you have a little understanding of the wall materials, you will find that they are just open-eyed and talking nonsense!
Although the material of diatom mud is natural, its viscosity is poor, and some chemical additives need to be added to the wall. This invisibly has more chemical components, how can it be pure natural and pollution-free?
Moreover, the adsorption capacity of diatom mud on formaldehyde is very weak, even if it plays an absorption role, it can not decompose formaldehyde in time, pollution is still hidden on the wall, for a long time, it also affects the environment.
Some people recommend you to use diatom mud because it sells high and makes money.
The tiles should be soaked in water
Let the tiles eat enough water before laying the bricks, so that they are more reliable after going to the wall and are not easy to empty the drums, which is not wrong.
But must meet a condition: the water absorption rate of the tile is higher than 0.5%, if it is lower than this value, there is no need to soak in water at all, and the soaking for a long time will damage the tile. Some bricklayers are irresponsible, and they don't care about three or seven twenty-one to soak in water, which is really too ruined material!
It should also be noted that the tiles cannot be soaked for too long. Generally speaking, how much to use, how much to soak, found that the tiles began to bubble, they were taken out, can not be soaked all the time.
The cabinet should be made of front water retainer
Merchants who make custom cabinets are most willing to let you do so. It is claimed that when cooking, water drops onto the ground and body. But after experiencing it, you will know that this design is useless and will bring a bunch of troubles:
A part of the edge of the countertop protrudes from the front retainer
- The board will be cocked up when placed on it, and it will be uncomfortable to cut vegetables
- It's easy to bump into things
- Over time, the groove is yellow and moldy, and it is not easy to clean
To tell the truth, there is more water on the countertop, just wipe it clean, is it difficult to wait until you leave it on your body to manage it?
Generally make a dripping edge at the bottom of the countertop, to prevent water from flowing into the cabinet is enough, the front water barrier is not much need, do not spend money unjustly.
100,000 all-inclusive, no add-ons
It is estimated that most of the people who have installed the house have heard the guarantee of the decoration company: "Hundreds of thousands of all-inclusive, absolutely no additional items in the later stage, believe me, no problem", the result, when you sign the contract, you will turn your face and do not recognize people.
Problems in the construction process are frequent, and you are constantly looking for additional items, so that you have to spend more money. In the end, the house was installed, and the total cost was tens of thousands more than the budget!
This is a small trick played by the decoration company, so when signing the contract, don't just listen to the salesman' blind blowing, be sure to ask for details. Including how to charge each link, etc., the more detailed you ask, the less mistakes there are, and the more the merchant dares not pit you.
epilogue
When renovating, don't trust the advice of some "professionals", after all, we are not insiders, it is easy to be brainwashed. It is recommended to find an experienced person before decoration, ask about the real situation, make more comparisons, and then make a decision.
