author:Lawyer Liu Long of Shandong

Before the author and most people, the field of decoration is not familiar with, the experience of people over, various news reports, company publicity, etc. make us do not know the new house down through what channels to achieve the ideal decoration effect, is it to find their own construction team decoration, or to find a decoration company decoration? How much does it cost? Half Pack or All Inclusive? How much energy and time does it take?

Later in the process of being a lawyer, I undertook several criminal cases of decoration and decoration (company running away, contract fraud, etc.), and my consulting unit also has a decoration and decoration company, and since then I have slowly gained a certain understanding of the decoration and decoration field, and now from the perspective of a lawyer, I will talk to you about how to choose a decoration company for new house decoration, what to pay attention to in the process of signing the contract, how to correctly understand the all-inclusive, half-package, various additions and price increases.

Real cases talk about the law - how much can renovation cost, why is there always an increase, the total over budget?

The following few sentences are the key points, the core of the correct understanding of decoration and decoration, and the principle that all decoration and decoration activities are inseparable:

The essence of decoration is custom-made, and the contract signed is a contracting contract

This results in:

------

The renovation was priceless

Understanding: A 100 square meter rough house, looking for a decoration company, how much is the decoration fee? This kind of problem is an idiotic question in the eyes of the industry, and many decoration companies like to ask this little white.

Back to the essence of decoration, decoration is a custom project, that is to say, no one can give you a specific offer before you have a specific custom project. For 100 square meters of houses, 20,000? 50,000? 100,000? Even 1 million? Many decoration companies like to give a lower offer to Xiaobai, and then charge other fees through additional items in the decoration process.

If it is only a simple hard installation, brush a wall, paste a simple tile, twenty or thirty thousand yuan can do a good job; further, the material should be used well, the corridor, the living room should be suspended, the bay window must be taken out of a cabinet, make a TV wall, the riser should be used to use soundproof cotton, brick mixed with paving and then paste a tile, about 100,000 can be done very well; further, the style should be all Chinese, the bathroom should be dry and wet separation, the bathtub, to be customized in all directions, this price may be hundreds of thousands.

So:

The essence of the renovation fee is the project fee

Understanding: How much is the all-inclusive or semi-package of decoration and decoration construction contract signed by the decoration company and you, which is actually aimed at the "project", not the house, the house is only the attachment of the project; the area is only a reference standard. The decoration fee charged by the decoration company is calculated according to your project, and the essence of the decoration fee is the project quotation!

Decoration cost calculation: material cost + labor cost + publicity and promotion cost + expected profit = decoration cost.

Material cost: The material selected by the owner, different brands, models and materials will affect the material cost. For example, kitchen countertops: tiles, stainless steel, marble have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the cost is definitely different.

Labor costs: Labor costs are generally relatively fixed, according to the process and area. Hydropower transformation is generally 35 yuan a meter and so on. Painter 14-15 yuan per square meter.

Publicity and promotion costs: According to the specific expenditure calculation, such as a decoration company publicity investment is larger, the increased cost must be passed on to the owner; such as a decoration company's reputation, brand is excellent, the corresponding cost will be high, but small decoration companies will usually be cheaper.

Expected Profit: Based on the overall profit level of the renovation market.

The above publicity and promotion costs and profits are usually more fixed, the biggest difference is the labor and material costs, the labor material costs are determined by the project, that is to say, the more decoration projects, the more labor and materials are generated, the better the quality of the pursuit, the higher the decoration costs.

Therefore, the same 100 square meters of house, the real gap in decoration costs is the decoration project, and the decoration project depends on the personal customization needs of the house.

The higher the quality of personal life, the higher the requirements for house style, the number of projects, and the process, and the higher the decoration cost!

At the heart of the renovation document is not the master contract but the renovation quotation

Understanding: Many people have decoration disputes, there are additional items in the decoration project, or dissatisfaction with the additional fee, the fundamental reason is that after the two parties sign the contract, there is no agreement on the materials used in the house, the level of technology, and the specific project, and many times the contract will not be so detailed in all aspects of the decoration project.

For example: toilet or balcony pipe. Some decoration companies think that I will make you a light steel keel bracket to seal, leave a few maintenance ports, but the owner may think that you must wrap it with soundproof cotton, brush the paste and then paste the bricks, there is a dispute, what to do? The contract will not be detailed to the riser process, what to see?

For example: corridors, decoration companies think that corridors are just painted, and you think that corridors are part of the living room, including ceilings and spotlights. What should I do if there is a dispute?

For example: Is the putty twice or three times? Does the suspended ceiling include a special-shaped suspended ceiling? Is the gate opening an add-on? What should I do if there is a dispute?

For example: What is the brand and model of the material?

。 All the projects and processes involved in the decoration price are in it, the processes and projects that are not in it are additives, and the personal customization needs to pay a separate fee, and the quotation is all-inclusive.

Based on the above, the lawyer tells you that when choosing a decoration company and paying the decoration fee, you should pay attention to the following aspects:

xxx

Choose a renovation company like a developer

1, look at the time of operation of the decoration company

It is best to have a long-established company that has been operating locally for more than five years.

2, see if there is a decoration qualification

Check the website of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development whether the decoration company has decoration qualifications.

3, whether it is a big brand

The purpose of the above is to see whether the decoration company has enough strength, for this kind of decoration company that has been working locally for a long time, there will usually be accumulated customers and larger financial support, take ten thousand steps back, if the decoration has a problem, it will not run away, and it can afford to lose! Either way, the skinny camel was always bigger than the horse.

Real cases talk about the law - how much can renovation cost, why is there always an increase, the total over budget?

Focus on the quotes

In view of the formality of the contract, most of the decoration disputes are generated in the process of contract performance, and the disputes are mostly unclear or no agreements, so the decoration company that does not give a detailed quotation must not be a good company, and there will be disputes in the later decoration projects.

The mind and time are focused on thinking about the decoration rather than the price comparison

The essence of decoration is private customization, decoration fee is based on your customized project and process out of the quotation, in their own did not think about how to decorate, how to decorate before you must not blindly set the contract, listen to the quotation. Decoration is an investment in the future quality of life, and you should spend your mind and time on the decoration needs of your own house, rather than comparing prices. At the same time, before the other party quotes, we must put forward our own needs as much as possible and reflect them in the quotation.

Decoration is always a detailed need, and then a detailed quote. It is not a simple demand and a simple quotation, and then there is a detailed demand, otherwise it will always be an increase. Understand this so that you will not be led by the nose.

If you listen to it at the same time, you will not believe propaganda or blindly believe rumors

1, publicity is always publicity, always invitation to offer, disputes or contract-based, will not be publicity-based. Propaganda that is not written into the contract is absolutely not credible.

2, in view of the misunderstanding of the all-inclusive, and the decoration company is a pit preconceived thinking, there are also a lot of untrustworthy blind remarks, to have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong.

For example, a company that has many rights protection customers.

One is that there are many branches, which often shows that the brand is harder and the head office is actually stronger. There will be many enterprises borrowing the brand and its qualifications to open branches, in fact, the branch does not actually have any relationship with the head office, and the occurrence of disputes will adversely affect the good brand.

One is that if there are no branches or few branches and still produce many rights protection customers, such companies are generally very risky companies.

In short, decoration is no small matter, understand the essence of decoration, and find a balance between quality of life and price.

Decoration is a non-standard product, sort out their own needs, and then do budget comparison; or sacrifice personalized customization, unified technology, set design templates.
