Teach you to see the home improvement package trap

Renovation is a complex process that takes a lot of time and effort, so a variety of renovation packages came into being. Many renovation units combine ceramic tiles, flooring, paint, cabinets, sanitary ware, doors and other major building materials, together with basic decoration construction, and package them for owners. Saving money, saving time and effort is their main advantage. However, due to the current lack of standardization in the home improvement market, many packages have many traps, especially the choice of informal small companies or guerrilla owners, often complaining.

Recently, Ms. Cheng, who lives in Fengtai District, Beijing, has encountered a “package trap”. Originally for the convenience of the map, the map chose a small company 18800 yuan decoration package, thinking about waiting to accept the new house, but things are far from simple. Her family was forced to upgrade and add items many times during the renovation. "There is no such thing as "leveling" in the contract. If you don't do this, you can't lay tiles and floors. If you do, you will have to pay more." Ms. Cheng is both indignant and helpless. "The floor in the package is too bad. The smell of the package is pungent. I don’t know how many times the formaldehyde exceeds the standard. Who dares to use it?" Or you can buy it yourself, but the cost in the package is not refundable, or Upgrade, increase the price to choose one of the other packages. In the end, the total cost is several times higher than the original price of the package. So, what are the traps hidden in the renovation package, how to avoid it?

Concealed works are known in advance, and hydropower transformation is settled according to actual projects. There are many hidden items in the decoration package that are not easy to know in advance, such as waterproofing, leveling, shovel wall skin, non-bearing wall reinforcement, and hydropower transformation. Sun Peidu, technical director of the Beijing Management Center of the Canoe Decoration, told the reporter that before signing the contract, the decoration party may deliberately conceal it. If the necessary items are not done during the construction, the follow-up works cannot be carried out, and the additional items will be produced one by one. If the ground is leveled, the ground behind the building will have more or less height difference. If the floor tiles or floors are not leveled, the floor tiles will appear hollow, fall off, crack, the floor will go up and creak, even unevenness; Wall skin, rough room before smearing wallpaper or wall tiles, brush paint before shovel the wall skin, otherwise it will cause wall material to peel, hollow, crack, fall off and other issues; hydropower transformation is a large increase in the number of households, if the owner If the water and electricity pipelines are not measured in advance, the calculation will increase the cost of the additional items. Experts suggest that you must be familiar with the entire process before the renovation, especially for concealed projects. Before the contract is signed, carefully measure the hydropower lines, and the items that may incur additional costs are clearly included in the contract.

Mark the brand and model of the main material to avoid the subsequent "upgrade" price. The types of main materials provided by the package are relatively simple, the grade is low, and the choice is small. There are usually restrictions on the number of doors, cabinets, floors, tiles, kitchen countertops, etc. If the owner wants to change or increase in the decoration, the other party may have to sit on the ground. It is. For example, the owner's kitchen needs 3 meters of countertops, but the package only provides 2 meters. If the owner does not notice in advance, the construction will be sold to the owner at a high price. Of course, if the owner chooses to buy it himself, it is equivalent to giving up the entire countertop building materials. This part of the cost is not refundable. Others will steal the column, the contract only writes "a certain brand or the same quality product", and the "equivalent quality" is very vague, because there is no specific model, basically no reference, the decoration can basically provide the same type of product of any grade . Experts suggest that before signing a contract, you must carefully calculate the specific amount of materials required at home, negotiate in advance, avoid adding items after the start of construction, and become passive. All building materials and products provided in the package must be marked with the brand and model in the contract. Choose the decoration package, in addition to the regular decoration company, you must be familiar with the entire decoration process, do your homework in advance, "shop around three", carefully compare the value of the package, the quality of the main material, etc., rather than blindly pursue the low price decoration package We must also carefully study the terms of the contract, and we must not hold the mentality of "sit a peace of mind when choosing a package."
