After renovating three houses, I summarized 9 big truths about "bathroom decoration":
First, the bathroom yang angle should be treated with begonia horn, and the yang angle strip should not be installed
The yang angle bar has a strong sense of abruptness, and if it is not buried in advance, there is a risk of falling off. If buried, the cost and material cost will increase a lot, which is really unnecessary.
It is recommended that the tile manufacturer or the mason master directly process the begonia horn for the tile, and the atmosphere after paving is integrated, simple and clean. Begonia angle compared to 45 ° chamfer, it is not easy to collapse porcelain, but also has a certain anti-collision effect.
Second, the bathroom should be equipped with an aluminum gusset ceiling, not a gypsum board ceiling
Even if the ceiling is suspended with waterproof gypsum board, it is not recommended, because although it can be waterproof, it is not moisture-proof, and it is easy to produce moldy situations after a long time. And the bathroom is to install exhaust fans and pipes, the gypsum ceiling is not easy to overhaul in the later stage, the price is still expensive, really unnecessary.
It is recommended to install the aluminum gusset ceiling directly, the price is cheap, not to mention, usually you can overhaul it yourself. Don't think that the appearance of the aluminum gusset ceiling is not simple and atmospheric. In fact, after you check in, you will find that you usually don't bother to look up, so practical is more important than good looking.
Third, the bathroom should be equipped with a rain shower room, not a bathtub
The bathtub not only takes up space, but is also difficult to manage. If your home is not a mansion and you do not have a babysitter, it is really not recommended to install a bathtub. For most people, it is fresh for two days after moving in, and it is basically idle in the back. After all, most Chinese homeowners don't have the habit of bathing regularly.
Or the shower room is more practical, easy to take care of, not to mention, the degree of freedom is also high. With a folding tub in the shower room, you can also bathe your child. Mainly when not in use, it can also be stored up, and it is also convenient for adults to sit next to it.
Fourth, the bathroom is not equipped with black hardware, but with white hardware
On the one hand, the surface material problem, most of the black hardware is made of black paint, the surface is matte. On the other hand, the color contrast problem, the scale is white, naturally in the black hardware looks particularly eye-catching. The key is not to over-clean, otherwise the paint surface will easily fall off!
It is recommended to install white hardware, even if it is dirty, it is not obvious, occasionally clean it, do not need to clean so briskly, it looks comfortable. Note here that we must choose water-plated materials, strong and wear-resistant and not afraid of falling paint. Do not like white, you can also choose the brushed electroplating process, not only does not show scale, but also is not easy to stain scale and fingerprints.
Fifth, the bathroom is not equipped with splicing under the basin, to install ceramic integrated basin
Spliced under the countertop basin, if the fixing process is not done well, there is even a risk of falling off in the later stage. Secondly, the position of the seam is also prone to mold or water leakage, and it is not so easy to take care of hygiene.
On the convenience of cleaning, it is still the best ceramic integrated basin. Seamless, rounded corners, easy to maintain on a daily basis. The key is also not to worry about the risk of the basin falling off at all. (Note that the one-piece basin should not be selected for rock slabs, and the price is expensive.) In fact, it is also spliced)
Sixth, if the bathroom tile is a matching size, it should be sewn on the wall
The seam of the wall and floor is not related to practicality, but it is related to the overall visual effect of the face value. The seams will look much cleaner and cleaner, in line with the visual comfort aesthetic. The unscratched seams do look messy and the aesthetics are not good.
Seventh, the bathroom is not installed with water and electricity to go to the ground, to install water and electricity to go to the sky
Especially the water pipe, although many manufacturers say that the warranty is ten years, or even thirty years, but no one dares to guarantee that it will not leak 100%, buried in the ground, in case of leakage, it is often found that the downstairs is flooded, and when the time comes, your home ground will be dug up, and you will lose money to the neighbors.
It is recommended that the water and electricity go to the sky, the bathroom should have to be a ceiling, the water pipe and electrical pipe are hidden in the ceiling, which is convenient for maintenance, in case of leakage, the first time can be found, the loss is reduced to a minimum.
Eighth, the bathroom should not be equipped with fish belly white tiles, but should be equipped with soft light solid color tiles
To say something that offends people, the fish belly white tiles have really rotted the street. Even now many public toilets use this kind of tile.
It is recommended to choose a light gray soft light brick, on the one hand, it is more resistant to dirt, in fact, it is very anti-slip. Soft tiles are between matte and shiny bricks, easy to take care of, and wear-resistant and non-slippery. The overall effect after paving is very advanced, and it is not easy to roll over.
Nine, the bathroom is not equipped with ground drainage, to install wall drainage
On the one hand, it is not good-looking, on the other hand, it occupies the floor space, and when mopping the floor, the mop is always easy to hit the drain pipe, and cleaning is not good.
And wall drainage does not have to worry about this problem, as for maintenance problems do not have to worry. Reserve a floor drain for backup maintenance. The three houses in my family are all walled, the longest one, which has been living for 15 years, and has never had any problems.
