when we decorate, we not only work hard, but also beware of all kinds of traps, especially the decoration company. If we don't pay attention, we will fall into the pit, so we must be more careful when we decorate. Today, Xiaobian will summarize some traps that are easy to appear during decoration, hoping to help you
first, fiddle with the quotation
many businesses like to lower the price of a certain item. For example, an owner knows the current unit price of floors and tiles, but he does not necessarily know the labor cost of floor installation and tiling, so he cut down the price of floors and tiles, but suffered a loss in labor cost. If you don't pay attention, it's easy to be cheated
countermeasures: when looking at the decoration quotation, don't just focus on the single price of a certain item, but combine the costs of labor, loss, machinery and other aspects as well as other items. If you find that a certain price is particularly low, then you have to review the prices of other items
second, deliberately omitting the main materials of decoration
some main materials were deliberately omitted from the decoration quotation. The owner was attracted by this kind of quotation with reasonable overall price and signed the contract readily. However, in the next decoration process, the owner will continue to pay out for the malicious forgetting of the decoration company. When he realized that he had fallen into the pit, he would take it if he wanted to climb up, and the initiative is in the hands of the decoration company
countermeasures: villains first and gentlemen later. According to the design drawings, it is required to write clearly all the main materials in the decoration contract or agreement, and indicate whether the buyer is the decoration company or the owner himself. Generally, the main materials that are easy to be omitted are the materials used for corners, such as background walls and ceilings
third, fiddling with small details
decoration companies fiddle with small details, such as the quality, grade and specification of main materials. This is a common trick of nonstandard decoration companies. Although it states that some materials are needed and the quantity of materials is required, it does not state what quality, brand and specification materials are selected
countermeasures: the decoration company is required to clearly mark the quality, grade, specification and model of the materials used on the budget table for future installation and use
fourth, the unit of measurement is not clear
the owner rarely pays attention to the units on the quotation, and not knowing the different units means that the quotation figures deviate greatly. For example, it seems reasonable to customize a shoe cabinet. In fact, there is no explanation about the size of the shoe cabinet, leaving enough opportunities for later decorators to exploit loopholes
countermeasures: in many projects, it is recommended to calculate according to the actual area, such as wardrobe, shoe cabinet, etc., and try not to use “ Item ” In order to avoid errors in the decoration process
fifth, the construction process is ambiguous
looking at the numbers without looking at the text description is a problem that most owners often make when looking at the quotation. They always feel that a digital error will cause losses, and the text description must be unable to do anything, which is not the case. Many construction projects may cause trouble as long as they miss a process
countermeasures: learn more about decoration, understand the construction process standards of various projects about interior decoration, and regularly go to decorate new houses to understand the process, which has a certain preventive effect. It is best to hire a qualified, professional and stable decoration company to serve yourself
