Decoration companies \”dig holes\” – to add items, they will do the following aspects:

Share a decoration knowledge point every day and learn decoration together, If you don’t understand something, you can discuss it.

1. Water and electricity additions

1. Is the water and electricity budget based on meters or square meters?

If it is by the meter, there is a high possibility of adding items later!

How to avoid it?

Sign a \”closed\” contract and agree on water and electricity The settlement price of the item shall not exceed 3% of the budget price of the item, and the excess shall be borne by the decoration company.

2. Are there additions to the square?

Yes, you heard it right.

For the same house type, different interior decoration companies will measure different areas.

Some can measure forty or fifty square meters more. It’s an exaggeration. This is a fact. My neighbor’s house has exactly the same house type as mine, and the decoration of his house is the same.The area inside the apartment measured by the company is 60 square meters larger than my home.

How to avoid it?

Nowadays, house measurement is free. Find several decoration companies to come and measure the house. After a comprehensive comparison, you will have an idea.

2. The increase of tiling Item——Bricklayer addition item

1. Haitang Point addition

2. Add threshold stones

3. Add water retaining strips

4. Addition of caulking (generally done by bricklayers for free)

How to avoid it?

Discuss with the decoration company or bricklayer (self-installation) in advance OK, write it into the contract

5. Additional items for shipping and return of ceramic tiles

Clear it with the merchant selling ceramic tiles in advance, and we will deliver it to the designated area of ​​your home for free; include free delivery for one replenishment in the process; free delivery for returns upon completion; use Unfinished tiles can be returned.

3. Addition of woodworking items

The probability of adding items to this item is generally small, because They are all contracted.

If there are additions, they may be in the following areas:

I haven’t discussed in advance whether to use light steel keels or wooden square keels. During decoration, I will tell you that light steel keels are more durable, so you can add money to upgrade light steel keels.

The average market price of ceilings here is 120/square meter for flat ceilings and 120/meter for side ceilings, which refers to light steel keel ceilings.

4. Additional items for scraping putty and brushing with latex paint

1. Additional items for plaster leveling.

2. Added processing items for yin and yang corner strips.

3. Add items to the network.

4. Gypsum lines (or PU lines) and corner flower brush latex paint are added.

5. Latex paint coloring fee increase.

The above was discussed clearly when signing the contract and should not be included in the contract.

6. Agree in advance whether to deduct the area of ​​doors and windows. There are some on the market that calculate half of the door and window area, and there are also those that don\’t calculate the door and window area.

7. Area increase.

Remember, you must do it yourself Measure and calculate the area by yourself. The decoration company\’s space for this operation is too large. When my home was renovated, it was overcalculated by several hundred square meters. Fortunately, I measured it myself and it was subtracted in the end.

8. When latex paint enters the site, be sure to check whether the brand and model signed with you are consistent, and whether they are the same model. Many owners don\’t care about this aspect and switch to cheaper brands or models of latex paint.

The labor cost is generally 20-28/square meter, including putty, plaster leveling, Yin and Yang corner strip processing, and latex paint.

Some contracts include labor and materials, such as latex paint, putty, and gypsum powder. How many square meters are appropriate?

You ask clearly about the brands and models of the above materials, and then estimate the average square price.

The average price of materials + the average price of labor + appropriate additional fees is the price of labor and materials.

5. Customized additions to the whole house

1. Is there any extra money for drawers? Generally, one drawer is provided per meter.

2. Is there any extra charge for glass doors?

3. Does it cost extra to make a rattan door?

4. Is there any additional charge for shutter doors?

5. Does the curved shape cost extra?

6. Light strips generally cost extra.

The above must be discussed clearly in advance, otherwise although the unit price is low, the total price of various additional items will be high.

A company makes water-based paint cabinets. Since there are no additional items, the total price is similar to that of Ou Song cabinets. I will definitely choose a more high-end water-based paint cabinet.

Share a decoration knowledge point every day and learn decoration together. If you don’t understand, you can discuss it.
