For those who are about to decorate, the most important thing is to understand the decoration sequence (process). Understand all the projects and then step by step. Before each step, clearly grasp the details and matters that will appear, learn from each other's strengths and avoid the regrets that will occur, so that there is 99% confidence that the decoration can be completed well.

In addition, it is ok to read other people's decoration diaries, but it is best to read them selectively, focusing on two items: 1, decoration order and matters needing attention 2, satisfaction and regret. Others can be seen but not seen.

Let's take my home as an example to help you complete every step of the renovation smoothly. Please pay attention to my reminder. This is definitely from experience. In addition, I interspersed when to buy something in the process of ordering decoration, which made it more worry-free to watch tx.

(a) tools in place, ready.

Before decorating, you must prepare a few things and put them in your bag. Tape measure (buy 5m, not 3m), calculator, big board clamp (for bills and receipts); In addition, it is best to prepare old towels (soft cotton, which are used to wipe bricks after pasting) and plastic bags (wrapped around the pipeline joints to prevent dirt from blocking) at the construction site in advance.

(2) Choose an auspicious day and start shooting.

Before the workers enter the site, it is best to personally measure all corners of the house, write it down with a pen ruler and mark it clearly. Don't be lazy. The contents of the measurement mainly include:

1. Define the areas involved in the renovation process. Especially tile area, wall paint area, wallpaper area and floor area;

2, clear the bearing wall size. Especially it is necessary to design the wall size of furniture in the future.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆.

(3) The main body is removed to make the space more practical.

The main body demolition and reconstruction is the first project, which mainly includes wall demolition, wall building, wall covering, heating demolition, plastic steel window replacement and so on. Remove the garbage in time to ensure the cleanliness of the room, but also for the convenience of construction.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆.

(d) Hydropower transformation, and arrange the use of each space.

Hydropower transformation, no regret medicine to eat. Bricks are stuck on the wall and the ceiling is sealed, so it is difficult to add another socket. So be sure to locate the switches, lights, basins, bathtubs, washing machines and so on.

Before the hydropower transformation, the cabinet designer should take measurements at home to help you determine the transformation scheme of power supply and waterway.

Water heater, it is also best to send someone to design the position of power supply and interface according to the model you determine.

Remind you: it is best to leave a power socket on the wall under the basin, which is convenient for loading kitchen treasures.

Air conditioning holes and power supply should be placed on the wall of the bedside as far as possible to avoid air conditioning blowing directly at people in the future.

Keep a distance of 20 cm between the strong and weak points, such as a distance of 20 cm between the socket and the network cable.

(5) Winding the riser and winding the ugly pipe.

Considering the humid environment of kitchen and bathroom, wooden keel must not be used as the material of riser! Everyone must be careful, even if the wooden keel is painted with antirust paint.

Remember, the vertical pipe is made of light steel keel or red brick. Light steel keel saves space, but the most sturdy and easy to use is red brick.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆.

(6) Tile pasting must first have a solid texture.

Buy a floor drain before sticking bricks.

Note: The floor drain should be bought in oriental home, but Yao Shun doesn't use it much. Buy a special washing machine or floor drain for the shower, and deodorize it.

After waterproof napping, we are ready to stick bricks.

In addition to the normal precautions for sticking tiles, the tiles are soaked in water and dried in the shade; In addition to cutting broken tiles, I personally emphasize the overall beauty of tiling. Simply put, the width of the brick on the wall should not be less than 10 cm. This often happens when sticking bricks. For example, the wall width is 1 m, the brick is 32*32cm, and the normal pasting method is 3 whole 1. But 32× 3 = 96, the jointing space of 1 cm should be reserved. Finally, the remaining small bricks can only be pasted 3cm wide. I'm not picky. A narrow brick is stuck there, which is ugly.

As long as you make it clear to the bricklayer in advance, the width of the brick on the wall should not be less than 10 cm. He can cut bricks on both sides. Let's take a wall just 1 meter wide as an example, and it becomes 2 whole and 2 small. 32× 2 = 64, reserved 1 cm for jointing, and the small bricks on both sides are 17.5cm, so that it looks not only symmetrical on both sides, but also the whole wall will not be narrow there.

However, this practice costs bricks, so please make a profit before buying bricks.

(7) Oil workers go into battle and wash and brush.

If you don't buy a finished door, let the worker master do it.

Note: Any carpentry work, even if it's just a pass, should follow this step. The big core board sinks to the bottom, and then it is coated with paint. When mixing oil, irresponsible workers are lazy and brush oil directly on the big core board, which is absolutely wrong. Don't believe the story of selling big core boards. It is no problem to brush oil directly on them. Remember, brush the oil directly, and it won't take long for it to crack completely, remember to remember.

Now you don't have to brush mixed oil, but use spray. Workers had better spray white on the inside of the door and the meter box, which is beautiful and not wasteful.

There's nothing to say about painting the wall. Leveling, grinding and rolling must depend on the skill of your oiler.

My house is painted in white except wallpaper, and I haven't painted it. Need to remind everyone that if you want to paint the wall, you must pay attention to color matching. The adjusted color is lighter than the color card, and it must not be the same as or darker than the color card, otherwise you will regret it. Because when you paint the wall at least twice, some even three times, the color of the upper wall will get darker and darker.

Different people have different views on whether to spray or roll coating. I use roller coating at home, but I have never tried spraying. It is said that the spraying effect is better, but once it is damaged, it becomes extremely difficult to touch up the paint.

(8) Wallpapers and beautiful walls

Wallpaper is much better than wall painting.

After the wall paint is painted, the oil trade union paints nitrocellulose paint where wallpaper needs to be pasted. The paint can be dried thoroughly the next day, and then the master is invited to paste the wallpaper. At first, I was worried that pasting wallpaper would stain the painted white wall, but later I realized that pasting wallpaper was really a clean job! My worry is completely unnecessary.

Note: Do not open the window for ventilation within 48 hours after the wallpaper is pasted, and let it dry slowly in the shade.

Tell the master that if something gets stuck, you should ask him to help repair it.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆.

(9) Install the socket panel

The socket panel can be installed in about half a day.

Remind you: 1, it's best to buy a socket with switch function, especially in the kitchen, so that both rice cookers and microwave ovens can be controlled without plugging in the power supply.

2. Although the socket with switch is good, we should pay attention to practicality. According to my observation, all three sockets of the five-hole power supply with switch are flat. Once your electrical appliance needs three round sockets, there will be the depression of using plug-in boards when the sockets are empty. Therefore, multi-purpose sockets must be used, even if it has no switch control!

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆.

(10) The ceiling of the kitchen and bathroom should be sealed with the last ugly part.

Install the water heater and Yuba first. After installation, the ceiling edge can better semi-package the water heater, that is, the connection is more beautiful.

Note: 1, it is best to buy aluminum button ceiling, even if it is demolished after many years, it is worth a lot of money to sell waste aluminum. On the other hand, pvc gusset plates look good, but the quality and performance are average, and plastic things are worthless even if they are sold as waste.

2. Buy gusset plates, and ask the price of the whole package. Don't buy gusset plates and corners separately. But the installation fee is extra.

(1 1) Install cabinets, and a beautiful integrated kitchen is born.

The cabinet is a supporting project, and the range hood, cooker and sink should be arranged in advance. It is best to deliver the goods on the same day and install them together with the cabinet.

It was agreed with the cabinet factory in advance that the artificial stone countertops cut off from the stoves and sinks should be brought here, and things with more money should not be given to the factory for nothing. It is very useful to install a water meter and water pipe.

(12) Installation of finished door

The finished door should be installed before the floor, mainly because the installation steps of the door are complicated, such as hinge, door lock, door suction, door frame and so on. , and use a lot of tools. If the floor is installed first, it is difficult to avoid bumping. In my house, the floor is installed first and then the door is installed. There are many small holes in the floor, and the meat hurts.

(thirteen) the installation of drying racks, curtain rods, lamps, sanitary ware, bathroom hardware.

It is suggested that these projects with scattered ash should be settled one by one before installing the floor.

(14) Installing the floor

The floor must be leveled before installation. Many floors in the neighbor's house are useless for leveling, so Lao Mao and I are careless. Unexpectedly, after the floor was paved, the corridor was very flat and depressed. I had to take it down, flatten it with quick powder and repave it.

Prepare a little pepper in advance, don't buy the so-called insecticidal powder brought by the floor workers, just let them spread it along the kicking angle.

Workers must not cut the floor in the house, cut in the corridor and finally clean the corridor.

(15) Installing radiator

At the end of the decoration, it is the easiest to neglect.

Be sure to make it clear to js in advance that if the seal on the installation sheet is not the manufacturer's seal, it will not be signed.

Pay attention to the installation list (not the purchase list) of radiator. Who is the stamped part? Many js operate in this way, and the purchase order is stamped with the manufacturer's seal; The single cover is the seal of the installation team. In this way, the so-called "warranty year" is only the radiator itself, but the material is either steel or copper and aluminum, so as long as it can leave the factory, there is almost no quality problem. The most error-prone place is installation! If you agree to seal the installation team, it basically means that you give up the right to pursue the responsibility of the manufacturer. Once the floor is soaked and the home is flooded, the manufacturer absolutely shirks the responsibility and the installation team can't find anyone. The so-called warranty can only be borne by the user himself.

(16) Land reclamation and clearing

The biggest embodiment of cleanliness, I think, is to clean the glass. It is a terrible thing to climb out and clean such a tall building. Secondly, floor waxing, you have to buy your own wax, which is cheap and easy to use, but you must use a clean waxing machine, which is dozens of times faster than manual waxing.

As for the rest, I don't think we need to rely too much on cleanliness. They just scrape around with small blades, which is not smart.

So after cleaning, you'd better do a detailed cleaning yourself. Go to the supermarket to buy a bag of "Wu Jie powder" and some old towels. Wipe old towels with dry five-clean powder, from door to door, from tiles to kicking corners, from one house to another. Don't be lazy. The result will surely make you proud.

(17) Furniture and household appliances enter the site.

A brand-new home, furniture bears the brunt. Bed, mattress, wardrobe, shoe cabinet, sofa, dining table, etc.

Reminder: The following items should be prepared before the furniture enters the market: disposable shoe covers (don't buy poor quality shoes, they will break when you step on them), several boxes of activated carbon, ladders and floor protective film (it is best to bring a wardrobe and a TV cabinet to protect the floor).

If you buy a cloth bed, remind you to see if all the cloth can be taken off. Because I really can't stand the static electricity of chemical fiber, the next day I tried to take off the original cloth and make a set of pure cotton, but I found that the cloth cover was too long and was nailed into the bed box. Workers are lazy, thinking that I won't open condoms for a year or so. I don't know if anyone else has this experience. Anyway, the master came again the next day, and it was quite troublesome to dismantle the dead bed. Send home appliances quickly, and wait until money is tight or not in a hurry. Anyway, electrical appliances are more and more advanced and cheaper.

(18) Accessories and decorations make the home tasteful.

With decorative paintings and beautiful curtains, the gentle taste of home comes out.

Remind you: don't spend too much money on the dressing of curtains. Curtain heads and lead pendants are necessary, but eight dollars and ten dollars for lace, cloth buttons and ears cost twenty or thirty dollars more per meter, which is unnecessary and unsightly.

Eight things you must know to participate in decoration! & lt4 158 > bytes

First, the decoration should start from shopping around.

Where to start the renovation is a problem that many new owners are worried about, and everyone is very vague about this concept.

The new house will be renovated. Where should we start? Decoration is a big problem, all new owners are newcomers in this field, and they are very confused about how to start this problem. The most basic thing is to read more books, ask more questions, visit the market and shop around.

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Similarly, in order to ensure their own decoration, owners need to study more. In practice, there are more "chicken thieves".

For building materials and furniture, we should visit several building materials cities, building materials supermarkets and furniture cities to see how the same building materials and furniture are sold in different brands and through different sales outlets. If you can, go online to see how their word of mouth is.

Decoration construction depends on several construction sites. Don't start work in a hurry, you'd better wait until the neighbor's home improvement is repaired. Go and have a look. A well-done team, even a well-done worker, can stay and work for themselves.

Second, the functional design of the bedroom is the most important.

The most fundamental problem of decoration is that the owner must first ask himself: What do I (or our family) need?

The first thing involved in decoration is definitely design. The owner first puts forward his own needs and touches the designer, so that the designer can consider the functions needed by the owner in the design process and understand the information such as the owner's living habits and hobbies, so as to facilitate the designer to better combine functions and styles in the design process.

Because design is not just a drawing design, this concept may be one-sided. The bigger thing is to design what life needs. It is best to have a drawing or a design scheme to divide space and function. Finally, we should respect the space and function, and the third is the decoration style.

As for how the owner can imagine the functions needed in daily life in advance before the decoration, one way is to draw a floor plan first, and which room to use, first make clear the general direction. Then calm down, stay in that space, think about what I want to put here and what I want to do there, and imagine what my future life will be like, and I will know what I need.

So function comes before style.

Some owners don't care about any function when they start decorating. Most small business owners initially consider style. Some owners are very practical, and they have clear ideas and think clearly about how to make better and more reasonable use of limited space.

Third, choose the right decoration team.

How to choose a decoration company? Just like talking about the object, you should be right.

What kind of decoration company to choose, first of all, we should consider our own economic affordability and choose one that is equivalent to our actual situation and affordability. The simplest, how much do you want to spend.

Big companies spend a lot of money, and small companies spend a little money. As owners, they must save. Owners may not have a clear budget, but many owners think of a brand. Many owners are more concerned about what is the most practical thing. How the owner chooses the construction team depends on the company, the designer, the foreman and the workers. This is the "chicken thief" we just talked about. You should be specific to each worker's operation. The new house has arrived, so there is no need to install it in a hurry. You can see more. This is also a way. Buy a house, buy a house, decorate a forum, real estate forum 6 O# K T

But for designers, this is particularly reluctant, because the owners always see the part, and then want to apply this part to their own home design.

There are several channels to choose a decoration company. One, go directly to the market and choose, and you will definitely be taken away as soon as you enter the market. You can have a full talk with these companies. Actually, I don't think quality has anything to do with the size of the company. When choosing a decoration company, you should read more and know more, and you can look at the projects under construction, which can fully show the management level and technical level of this company. Don't worry too much through this survey. Take the key today, install it tomorrow, and live for a month. First of all, you have to decide how much you want to spend on the installation, and you must consider the affordability.

The biggest advantage of a big company is that it is so-called good reliability and guaranteed in the later period. How about looking for a construction team? There is no guarantee in the later period. I am looking for suitable materials for my team. The price difference of this material is even greater.

Materials are much more than the cost of construction. After seeing the construction quality, we should consider our own economic bearing capacity.

Fourth, why can't the decoration overrun be eliminated?

Overexpenditure in decoration is an unavoidable problem for most owners. In the process of decoration, there are additional items. In fact, many times, cost overruns are caused by the owners themselves. How to exceed the limit?

For example, I saw this brick is good today, and our home has only been renovated once. This 40-yuan brick, that 50-yuan brick and that 50-yuan brick are all beautiful and not too much. So, just one, piece by piece, and finally it's much higher. In addition, for example, hydropower transformation is the most unpredictable, and the decoration company said it happened according to the actual situation. How did it happen?

As the owner, what function my home needs and how to use it when using it are all carefully considered by the owner before signing the contract. Take a moment, sit down in the house, think about your life, and you will know where the socket is. Don't listen to the decoration team telling you where to install it. Because only you know what you really need.

Some owners said, why do I know how to install this? I'm not from a design background. Of course, if you find a good designer who is responsible and familiar with your life, or he can be familiar with your life through understanding, he can also help you do this without your own trouble.

Some owners said, why should I consider these issues? Just because you want to save money, you should think more.

Five, first set the furniture and then prepare for decoration construction.

First, choose furniture according to the size of your home. Determine the placement of all kinds of furniture, and set the decoration tone and style of this house according to the furniture.

Then, on the basis of determining the placement position of furniture, determine the water and electricity nodes, that is to say, determine which places need sockets, which places need faucets and how much they need respectively. After the nodes are determined, the budget of hydropower transformation will be more reliable, avoiding the problem of crazy cost overruns in hydropower transformation in most decoration cases.

Next, determine whether the floor is paved or tiled. This is mainly chosen according to your own preferences. Personally, I prefer the practice of laying floors in the bedroom and tiles in the living room and kitchen. However, this practice requires raising the bedroom floor. Because the floor tiles are 35-40mm higher than the ground. The height of the floor (except solid wood) is only 8 to 12mm, and there is a gap between them, which leads to the uneven floor of the living room and bedroom, so the floor of the bedroom should be leveled with cement mortar, so that a consistent height can be formed after the floor is paved. If it is a solid wood floor, there is no need to heighten it. Because the solid wood floor needs keel, it will also raise a certain height.

Then it is to determine the functions of other functional areas.

This is done step by step to maximize the effectiveness within the budget constraints.

It is suggested that other owners should consider the functions they need before decorating. I will always say this: you can't wait for the designer to tell you what features you need. Only you know what you need. When looking for a designer's owner, when communicating with the designer, he should communicate his functional requirements with the designer in detail, so that the designer can integrate practical functions with design.

Sixth, you can decorate without a designer.

At the shooting scene of the home improvement staff, a newly renovated owner shared his own decoration experience: completely abandoning the designer's decoration experience.

The first thing to do in decoration is to clarify the problem of money first. The owner first goes to the building materials market to see how much these things for decoration are worth. First of all, they should have a general concept of price in mind. Then measure yourself how much you plan to spend on decoration and what grade of products you can afford. So there is a rough budget.

The owner's decoration process almost completely abandoned the designer. First, she ordered white maple panel furniture. According to the style and color of furniture, basically set the tone of the whole decoration.

She also chose the way to decorate the background wall of the living room-pasting wallpaper, which she chose herself. According to the structure of the house, a small part of the ceiling is used to cover the beams. One wall of the bedroom is also wallpaper.

Then, the owner selects building materials such as tiles, cabinets, sanitary wares and lamps. When choosing ceramic tiles, there is a spirit worth learning: strictly control the budget. She originally liked the paving effect of 10* 10 small square brick; Later, I asked, the paving cost of this small square brick is very high, and sticking this brick will exceed the budget. So she gave up this kind of tile rationally.

This spirit of controlling budget is worth learning from decoration owners, unless there is no special case of decoration budget constraint. Why is decoration easy to overspend? A very important reason is that the mentality is a little indifferent. When buying building materials, it doesn't matter if it is a little more expensive here, and it doesn't matter if it is a little more expensive there. On the whole, it is seriously overspent.

Seven, choose the decoration company or choose the decoration guerrillas.

Choosing a decoration company or a decoration team is a question that most owners who intend to decorate have considered. Originally thought that many owners would choose decoration companies-because there is security. Later, I made a survey on the forum: Do you choose a decoration company or a decoration team for your home decoration (the results of the forum survey are for reference only)? It is found that the owners who originally chose the decoration company and the decoration team are evenly matched, and there is no result of favoring either side.

Eight, it is cost-effective to buy the main material or choose the decoration package.

Many decoration companies have a variety of decoration packages, making it difficult for owners to choose. Is it cost-effective to choose these various decoration packages, or is it cost-effective to buy half a package of building materials for decoration?

Back to the topic, which is more cost-effective?

In fact, buying building materials is not necessarily more cost-effective than decorating packages. Because decoration companies cooperate with building materials suppliers, they buy a lot of building materials. Even if the decoration company profits from it, the price may not be more expensive than the owner's individual purchase of a small amount of building materials in the building materials market. When buying building materials, the most important thing is to shop around, so as to have a bottom of the price.
