The preparation step
The commencement formalities must be completed, and six procedures must be completed with the residential property before the commencement of construction. A) Sign the renovation agreement issued by the property. B) Provide the property with renovation drawings, and the property mainly examines whether the demolition and renovation projects of water, electricity and walls are qualified. C) Handle the "Work Permit", which is the time limit for property inspection. D) handle the entry and exit certificates for workers. E) pay the decoration deposit. As long as you work normally, it will be returned within 3 months after the renovation is completed. F) Pay the garbage clearing fee, which is used to pay the cost of cleaning and decorating the property.
Say hello to the neighbors, because there is a lot of noise in the decoration. Some neighbors may be working late or have children at home, so it is easy to be disturbed. Saying hello in advance can prepare the neighbors, which can also avoid conflicts in the future.
The design link
is also construction. The difference between people and bees is that the construction of bees is a reflection of instinct, and before construction, people will first form ideas and frameworks in their minds. Therefore, if home improvement is likened to a battle, then the preliminary design of home improvement is the "battle plan" of this battle and the "soul link" of home improvement.
Before designing, measure the house by yourself, so that the decoration design and the purchase of furniture and building materials can be assured, and the waste caused by false measurement by the decoration company or excessive purchase of decoration materials can be avoided.
Design should determine the decoration style of your home, specify the doors, windows, walls, water and electricity and wall shapes that need to be demolished, make a good budget and sign the renovation contract with the decoration company. You can refer to the last article "Six Points for Attention in Signing renovation contract"
Main body demolition and renovation
The main body demolition and renovation is the first construction project, which mainly includes wall demolition, wall building, wall peeling, plastic steel window replacement and so on. To put it bluntly, the main body demolition is to put up the framework of the construction site first.
wooden door measurement
cabinet measurement
concealed works
hydropower transformation, which belongs to concealed works, is buried in walls or under tiles. It is not easy to dismantle and change in the later stage. Therefore, the specific locations of switches, lamps, sanitary ware, electrical appliances and furniture must be determined before decoration. Moreover, the kitchen cabinet designer should also help you determine the transformation scheme of kitchen power supply and waterway.
The bathroom is waterproof. After the water and electricity are finished, the vertical pipes in the kitchen and bathroom need to be wrapped with light steel keel or red brick. Then waterproof the kitchen, bathroom and balcony.
Covering project
Woodworking, bricklayer and oiler are the "three brothers" in the construction process, and the basic order of appearance is: wood-tile-oil. The basic entry principle is-whoever is dirty goes first. Woodworking first appeared mainly to make all kinds of cabinets (cabinets made of large core boards for carpentry, not finished products) and wooden keels for ceiling and wall modeling.
bricklayers stick bricks (install doorstones, marble window sills and floor drains).
the cabinet is measured for the second time.
The oiler should do the basic treatment of the wall first, then paint the wall finish, paint the cabinet made by the carpenter, and prepare to paste the wallpaper. Students only need to let the oiler do the basic treatment on the wall that plans to paste the wallpaper.
after the installation of the water heater, the water heater can be notified of delivery and installation after the wall and floor are decorated. Water heaters are usually installed before the ceiling, and gas water heaters have become the current trend, generally installed in the kitchen or closed balcony. If it is an electric water heater, it is installed in the bathroom.
the kitchen and bathroom ceiling is still continuing the "packaging" of the home. At the same time as the ceiling of the kitchen and bathroom, the moisture-proof ceiling lamp and exhaust fan (Yuba) of the kitchen and bathroom should have been bought. Generally, kitchen and bathroom ceiling lamps and exhaust fans are installed at the same time.
installation stage
after the ceiling is finished, the cabinet can be installed. At the same time, there are also sinks (not including water supply and drainage parts), gas stoves and hoods. It is best to coordinate the property to turn on the gas before the cabinet is installed, because the gas stove needs to be tested after it is installed.
wooden door installation, as early as more than a month ago, after the wooden door measurement was completed, it can be installed about now. Hinge, door lock and floor suction should be installed at the same time when installing the door. The production cycle of solid wooden doors is generally one month. Therefore, in order to make the construction period closely linked, it is necessary to let the wooden door manufacturers come to the door as soon as possible to measure the size of the door opening after the main body is demolished. Regarding the treatment of the doorway, we need to pay attention to one point. If the height of the doorway at home is inconsistent, workers need to treat it as the same height-beautiful.
floor installation, the floor can be installed the day after the wooden door is installed. The following two issues need to be paid attention to in floor installation: a) Before floor installation, it is best to let the manufacturer go to the door to investigate whether the ground needs leveling or partial leveling. Some decoration companies or renovation teams will advise students to level the ground or partial leveling, subject to the actual survey of the floor manufacturer. B) Before the floor is installed, the floor on which the floor is paved at home should be cleaned to ensure that the floor is dry, so no water should be used in the cleaning process.
wallpaper should be laid. On the second day after the floor is installed, the wallpaper can be laid after it is cleaned at home. On the day of wallpaper laying, the floor should be protected, and before wallpaper laying, the wall should try to be "nothing".
switch socket installation, in the bathroom, all sockets and switches must be waterproof, and sockets should be covered. The light switch at the entrance is suggested to be inductive or fluorescent, so you can go home in dark to avoid dark. There should be more switch sockets than less, and at least one socket should be reserved where the sockets are arranged. It should be noted that there will be more and more household appliances. Once there is a new appliance but no socket, it will be difficult to install it again.
there is nothing to say about the installation of lamps. After the lights were installed, the house lit up, saying goodbye to the dazzling light of the 1-watt incandescent bulb during the renovation.
for the installation of hardware and sanitary ware, all the plumbing fittings, bathroom pendants, toilets, clothes racks, etc. bought before are installed. After the "big pieces" in front are installed, the home is still very "cold". When the lamps and hardware sanitary ware are installed, the home will be "alive", really "alive". It is no exaggeration to say that the first time you open the dragon water and watch the water "wow, wow" flow out, your heart will be beautiful; Go to the lavatory, the newly installed toilet at home for the first time, will have a great sense of accomplishment.
installation of curtain rod, which marks the basic end of home improvement. You can take a breath, and the busy renovation day finally comes to light.
Closing link
Before pioneering cleaning, don't install curtains. When pioneering cleaning, don't have furniture and unnecessary household appliances at home, and try to keep more "planes" so that pioneering cleaning can be thoroughly cleaned.
when the furniture comes into the market, remember to measure the width of the door and the size of the placement position, so as to avoid the embarrassment that you can't move into the door and the location is not big enough.
home appliance installation
home accessories are the last step of home improvement, and they have changed from decoration to decoration, including curtain installation. As for buying curtains, it is best to book the furniture to avoid style conflict. Home accessories also include buying some green plants, hanging wall paintings, decorating handicrafts, etc ... In short, after moving in, you are free to play
move in and pay attention to ventilation of the house.
add up the time required for the seven links, and you will find that the whole renovation cycle only takes more than two months. However, during the construction process, the construction period may be extended due to weather and other reasons. Under normal circumstances, the general renovation period takes three to four months. After reading the decoration process, I will send you the five experiences of blood and tears summed up by the residents and teach you how to avoid stepping on thunder.
1. Regular acceptance of construction quality
Poor construction quality often leads to water seepage in the bathroom, bulging latex paint, and pipeline burial that does not meet industry standards. Therefore, when each stage is completed, professionals can be invited to come to the door to supervise and find problems as early as possible.
2. Find a regular army for decoration
When decorating a house, you can't find a "guerrilla" for home decoration just for the sake of cheapness. The construction level, design, quotation and materials are varied, and it is easy to upset your plan. Generally speaking, find two or three formal decoration companies, compare prices and negotiate before making a decision.
3. Don't change the decoration scheme frequently during construction.
Changing the scheme frequently during decoration will easily lead to delays and waste materials, and there will be constant contradictions between the two sides. The decoration scheme should be established before the construction, and if there are any major changes, it should be completed before the construction.
4. Reserve more storage space
When decorating a small apartment, the future storage and storage functions can be fully considered. You know, there will only be more and more things at home in the future, so the storage place is the same as the socket, so I would rather have more than less.
5. Arrange the purchase time of materials
Arrange the purchase time of materials needed in each link to avoid the delay of materials and affect the renovation progress.
