How to ensure the ideal landing effect of decoration? There are nothing more than three conditions: design, materials, construction.
Material quality is the basis of home decoration, good materials can ensure accurate installation, in order to ensure the texture of the finished product; On the contrary, if the quality of the material itself is not good, no matter how good the design is, no matter how good the master is, he will not be able to make the desired effect.
As a person who has come over, after installing a third house, I finally understood: these 10 kinds of materials, even if the budget is small, you have to buy a big brand. Otherwise, it may be because of saving a little money and the home will lose its texture, and even bury hidden dangers -
1. Hydropower materials
Specifically, including wires, water pipes, air openings, sockets and switches, most of which are embedded in the wall, are related to the safety of household water and electricity, and the quality of the material is of course critical.
Buying advice:
(1) wire to choose panda, Far East, Shangshang, Nanyang, Delixi these well-known domestic brand names some regional brands, to see whether there is 3C certification, to see whether it meets the requirements of the national standard, and pay attention to the number of squares and to leave a margin.
(2) PPR water pipes choose brands such as Rifeng, Weixing, Poly and Liansu, which usually have a 50-year warranty commitment. When selecting specifically, we should also pay attention to the thickness of the pipe wall, it is recommended that you choose to choose 4.2mm, and there will be a code on the outer wall of the genuine water pipe.
(3) Switch socket is recommended to buy online, mainly considering the brands of Bull, Siemens, Schneider, Chint and Delixi, the quality will not be wrong, the main concern is whether the appearance is liked.
2. Waterproof material
The importance of waterproofing does not need to be talked about, if you don't want to leak water to the neighbor's house after moving in, remember not to save on the selection of waterproof materials, to choose well-known brand paints and ensure the construction specifications.
Buying advice:
(1) Waterproof materials focus on Yuhong, JCDecaux and Sika, which are good, and you should pay attention not to go to the hardware store to buy, but to go to the brand's store.
(2) Brush waterproofing is not recommended to do it yourself, do not buy your own materials and then go to find a worker to brush, once the water leaks in the later stage, it will be ripped, no one will be responsible for you, the loss is only borne by yourself. So, it's advisable to go
3. Ceiling material
The quality of the ceiling material is also very important, you may have seen a case of the ceiling cracking or even falling after someone moved in, and the reason for this is probably the quality of the material.
Buying advice:
(1) The wooden keel is outdated and can no longer be used, remember to use a light steel keel. For brands, focus on Knauf, Dragon, Fortune Wings, Saint-Gobain and Jackco, and the quality will be more reliable.
(2) gypsum board should also remember to choose well-known brands in the industry, focusing on Dream brand, Taishan, Dragon, Youshiji and Knauf, the environmental protection and quality of big brand gypsum board will be better, compared with miscellaneous brands will not be much more expensive.
4. Tile adhesive
Now everyone likes to make a concise effect in home decoration, and the tiles are getting bigger and bigger, and the tile adhesive is a necessary material when the large bricks are on the wall, and the thin paste with tile glue is the correct way to put the whole tile on the wall.
Buying advice:
(1) Note that you buy "tile adhesive" instead of "ceramic tile adhesive", the difference between one word and the effect is very different. Tile adhesive is usually in bags, while tile adhesive is generally in barrels.
(2) The price of tile adhesive is not cheap, and some miscellaneous adhesives can not meet the requirements, the price is cheap but the adhesion is poor, which lays a hidden danger for the later hollowing and brick dropping. Therefore, to choose well-known brands, focus on the brands of JCDecaux, Oriental Yuhong, Thunder, Three Trees and Mapei.
(3) Pay attention to the selection of the right model, tile adhesive is divided into C1, C2, C2TE, C2TES1 and other different models, corresponding to different ceramic tile specifications, how big the brick is suitable for which model to pay attention to matching.
5. Bathroom hardware
The bathroom hardware at home is also very quality-oriented, such as faucets, angle valves, high-pressure pipes and floor drains, which not only affect the use experience of bathroom appliances, but also related to the safety of waterways.
Buying advice:
Bathroom hardware is recommended to be purchased online, which will be much cheaper than physical stores, and the styles are more diverse. Focus on submarines, Jomu, Wrigley, Hengjie, Moen, these major brands, cost-effective.
6. Cinquefoil
The quality of putty powder is easy to be ignored in home decoration, after all, it is a material that the whole house has to be brushed again, covering a large area, which not only affects the effect of latex paint to a large extent, but also related to environmental protection.
Buying advice:
(1) Be sure to buy in a big brand store, focusing on JCDecaux, Meichao, Nippon, Oriental Yuhong, Three Trees and Saint-Gobain These brands, remember to buy bulk, miscellaneous or large-package tooling cheaply.
(2) When scraping putty, you must clearly tell the workers that the master does not add glue or glue powder to the putty, some masters will have various reasons for you not to believe, once the glue is added, don't expect the decoration to be environmentally friendly.
7. Latex paint
Many bloggers of latex paint say in the video that they don't need to choose big brands, which is actually misleading. Some miscellaneous latex paints are cheap to buy, but the quality does not meet the requirements, and the paint film effect and scrub resistance are different from the big brands, which finally leads to the mediocre decoration effect of your home.
Buying advice:
(1) Look for the brand, focusing on the major brands of Dulux, Nippon, 3Trees and China Resources, and you can rest assured in terms of quality.
(2) For ordinary home decoration, you should choose a big brand of latex paint, but you don't have to choose the brand's high-end series, just choose the brand's mid-range series, which is usually the one with the largest sales.
(3) Many decoration companies will promise to use big brand latex paint for you when quoting, but the later stage is the use of this brand tooling series. Therefore, when signing the contract, it is necessary to clearly indicate which brand and which model.
(4) Imported brand latex paint is not recommended, for most friends it is a proper IQ tax, and you can choose a domestic brand.
8. Solid wood flooring
Solid wood flooring and ceramic tiles are different, ceramic tiles do not have to choose big brands, but solid wood flooring must choose big brands, because solid wood flooring has higher requirements for raw materials, equipment and technology for production, some miscellaneous solid wood floors look good, but they are not smooth, and they will be worn for a year or two, and even begin to arch and deform. In addition, some miscellaneous brands of solid wood flooring glue contain harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene, which will lead to excessive formaldehyde in the whole house.
Buying advice:
(1) The brand of solid wood flooring focuses on the major brands of auspicious elephant, nature, holy elephant, Jiusheng, life home and Fillinger, which are relatively expensive but reliable in quality.
(2) There are several kinds of solid wood flooring, such as pure solid wood, three-layer solid wood, multi-layer solid wood and laminate flooring, etc., for most people, three-layer solid wood and multi-layer solid wood are the most suitable choices.
9. Cabinet plates and hardware
Whole house customization has become a must-have project for home decoration with its two advantages of making full use of space and realizing the harmony and unity of home style, and the difference is only the difference between more and less area. In the actual selection, the whole house customization does not need to choose those big brands, the brand premium is too high! However, it is strongly recommended to choose a big brand for the plates and hardware of the cabinet, because the quality of the miscellaneous plates and hardware is really unreliable, and there are great risks in environmental protection.
Buying advice:
(1) The plate should first pay attention to its environmental protection level, and the minimum home improvement board must be E0 to start, and it will be better to use ENF or F4 star. The brand focuses on Furen, Wanhua, Lu Li, Daya and Rabbit Baby, which will be more expensive than miscellaneous brands, but the quality is reliable and environmental protection is also guaranteed.
(2) Hardware determines the use of the texture and life of the cabinet, it is recommended to choose the domestic Dongtai, Higold, Gute and Nomi brands, which are very cost-effective. If you have a sufficient budget, you can consider imported Blum and Hettich, but pay attention to distinguish the real from the fake, because there are many fakes.
10. All kinds of glue
Glue is used in many positions in the decoration of the whole house, such as styrofoam for window sealing, structural glue, mildew-proof glass glue for cabinet countertops, beauty glue for baseboards, etc., all say that "no formaldehyde is not glue", and the big brand of glue can ensure that environmental protection is up to standard, and the cheap glue that the master brings and a few yuan in the hardware store has a pungent taste, and it is often excessive formaldehyde, so don't use it for nothing.
Buying advice:
(1) These glues are recommended for online shopping, but you should choose the brand's official store to place an order, and the brand focuses on recommending WACKER, Submarine, 3Trees and Baiyun, which have a good reputation.
(2) Don't use glass glue in the whole house, and use different glue in different positions. What kind of glue should be used for different positions in home decoration? In the early stage, I wrote a strategy to answer this question, and I need to pay attention to the homepage to search for keywords to make up for the lesson.
