What are the precautions for the decoration of the north and south balconies?
Problems to be paid attention to in balcony decoration: 1, mainly distinguish between primary and secondary, and clarify functions. The newer house has 2~3 balconies. Before decoration, distinguish the main balcony and the sub-balcony, and clarify the function of each balcony. Generally, the balcony adjacent to the living room and master bedroom is the main balcony, which should focus on leisure and fitness, and can be equipped with gym, tea room and so on. And the decorative materials of walls and floors should be consistent with the living room; The second balcony is generally adjacent to the kitchen or living room and the room outside the master bedroom, mainly for storing things, hanging clothes or serving as a kitchen, which can be simpler when decorating. Now many houses have north and south balconies, and the north balcony is often next to the kitchen. When decorating, we might as well add a plastic door to the north balcony. The balcony window can be opened, and it can be used as a space for storing food such as grain in winter and become a natural cold storage. 2. Pay attention to the packaging quality. Balcony packaging quality is the key to balcony decoration. Pay attention to its wind resistance and install it firmly. Seal it properly, or it will be unsealed if it leaks. The lower opening of the window frame is the easiest to leak water. Generally, a gap of 2 cm is reserved under the window frame, sealed with special sealant or filled with cement. If there is a windowsill, you should make an outward slope. 3. Pay attention to safety. The balcony structure of most houses is not designed for load-bearing, and usually the load-bearing capacity per square meter does not exceed 400 kilograms. Therefore, when decorating the balcony, we must understand its bearing capacity, and the decoration and storage should not exceed its load to avoid danger. There is a wall between the bedroom and the balcony. The doors and windows on the wall can be removed, but the lower part of the window can never be removed. In the building structure, it is called "counterweight wall", which plays the role of supporting the balcony. If removed, it will seriously affect the safety of the balcony and even lead to the collapse of the balcony. When sealing the balcony, try not to put the balcony out to occupy more space, which is not only dangerous, but also unsightly, and the property management department does not allow it. 4. Pay attention to waterproof and drainage treatment. Many families set faucets and washing machines on the balcony, so that the washed clothes can be dried directly, or set vegetable washing pools on the balcony for kitchen use, which requires that the waterproof layer and drainage system on the balcony floor must be done well. If drainage and waterproofing are not handled properly, water leakage will occur.
