When buying doors and windows, you must be optimistic about the price and brand of hardware. If necessary, the brand and price of each hardware accessory should be clearly written in the contract to avoid the problem of adding items later.

Domestic bricks of selected brands

It is possible to choose domestic tiles of mid-range brands. You can choose a better one if you can, but don't choose poor people to mop the floor late, it will smell fishy.

Pull baskets in the kitchen and pack them yourself.

Decoration companies are generally made of 2K, which is really expensive. I've also seen other bloggers do it themselves. It's really easy to use and saves money.

You can buy a simple and cheap bed.

If you want to save money, you can buy a cheap bed. If you buy a good mattress, it will be comfortable to sleep for a while.

Building materials and furniture are directly supplied by manufacturers.

There is no need to buy building materials and furniture at the original price. Choose large platform manufacturers for direct supply, and choose more colors than others. Authentic low prices save money.

A door that is not painted replaces a painted door.

If you save money, paint-free doors are better than painted doors for indoor doors. Although the value is not as good as the painted door, the quality is no less than the painted door, and the color changes a lot.

Digu

Bedroom floor paving requires cement mortar leveling due to the difference between living room floor tile and bedroom floor. After leveling, some construction parties require to brush the floor firmly, which can prevent cracks on the one hand and sand on the other, but it has little effect, and the floor cannot be inspected or brushed. This can save some expenses.

Leave the standard size bedroom door.

Leaving a standard doorway in the construction can save the cost of customization for more than one month, saving time and money.

Choose domestic brands with first-class energy efficiency for refrigerators.

The refrigerator is open 24 hours, so it is important to save electricity. Domestic brands with first-class energy efficiency are enough. There is no need to choose imported so-called imported artificial intelligence refrigerators. The price of one more function is thousands of dollars higher immediately. Really not recommended.

Sliding doors don't need to pursue too high quality.

The sliding door itself does not need to pursue too high quality, mainly the good guide rail, which determines the service life of the sliding door.

Bathroom niches are expensive.

The niche is equivalent to a shelf, but it reduces the area of the bathroom and costs a lot. Later, I really felt that it was unnecessary.

Smart toilets do not need to pursue big brands.

You can buy the same quality in different ways. Some big brands have foundries in Guangdong, so it is not bad to buy general quality control made in Guangdong. Buy a smart toilet, choose a dual-channel design, no water pressure limit, siphon flushing, flip with feet.

Prepare materials in advance

Don't make a mistake in the order of decoration. No, that will prolong the construction period and cause expenses.

The correct order of decoration is: measuring room design-> main body demolition and transformation-> water and electricity preparation->; Hydropower construction-> bricklayer-> carpentry comes into play->; Paint the wall-> install the water heater-> install the cabinet-> install the door-> install the floor-> install the switch socket-> install the lamps-> install the hardware sanitary ware-> install the curtain rod-> clean-> furniture comes into play-> home appliances come into play.

Don't choose all-inclusive.

Beautiful but a waste of money, it belongs to winding behavior, and it is useless, except for point-to-point installation in the kitchen and bathroom.

The wire does not need 4 square meters in the whole house.

It's really unnecessary. It is best to use 4 square meters for high-power kitchen and bathroom, which can save a lot.

Datong store is the best

Don't try to be a wave conductor. Labor costs are really expensive, and space is particularly small for materials.

Less demolition and change of main body

Many people will have a lot of ideas about the first suite. Demolition and reconstruction are very expensive, because every demolition and construction will cost money. If there is not much problem with the pattern, don't tear it down and change it, wasting money.

Decoration time

Try not to decorate before the Spring Festival. After the Spring Festival, workers' decoration price is relatively cheap, their work is more detailed and they have more time.

Don't be the main light on the ceiling

Because not only the ceiling is expensive, but also the track lights are more expensive. The daily price is about 500 meters, and the general living room is about tens of meters. It's really too expensive, and the floor space is not high. Really not recommended.

Don't choose all-inclusive.

Generally, there are two kinds of decoration methods: half-package and all-package. Easier and more suitable for people with adequate budgets. It's easier to spend money on it. [Half a pack] is suitable for people with enough time. You can choose some main materials with the designer, and the budget can be controlled by yourself.

Don't use too much plaster line.

If the home is Nordic or modern, don't use too many plaster lines, calculated in meters. If it is modern, adding a few more lines is not particularly beautiful, it is more expensive.

Use less bricks, tiles and standard bricks.

The labor cost of tiling is relatively expensive, and the amount of caulking agent is also relatively large, and the cost will be much higher.

Specification and laying method of ceramic tiles

For tiles with sizes of 300 * 300,600 * 600.800 * 800, it is suggested that the paving method should be straight (paving cost is 50-70 yuan /M). If you choose other conventional size tiles, plus complicated paving methods, the paving cost per square meter will be 2-3 times the price of tiles (the paving cost is 80-200/M).

Replace the partition with cabinets/glass.

There is no need to build a wall for the partition, which costs more money and takes up more space. If you need partitions, you can choose custom cabinets and glass partitions.

Cabinet? Pay attention to the pricing method of cabinets.

To calculate the price of cabinets, we must first make accurate measurements. There is a range hood above the cabinet, so let's talk about the money in the cabinet. When measuring the cabinet size, be careful not to repeat the ruler in the corner.

The sewer pipe must be wrapped with sound insulation cotton.

The sewer pipe must be covered with sound-proof cotton, with dozens of good materials at most, but the decoration company is several hundred.

Pricing method of latex paint

Paint area = (usable area-kitchen and bathroom area) *35, paint area = (building area-kitchen and bathroom area) *3 paint area of paint bucket+paint area of each bucket, the relevant quantity is the same as that calculated, which can reduce waste.

Latex paint is more cost-effective than wallpaper

If latex paint is used, it is recommended to choose environmentally friendly and cost-effective. No matter how expensive the wallpaper is, it is not as long as latex paint. Generally, it will be repaved in about seven years. With too much glue, formaldehyde is easy to exceed the standard.
