A clever way to renovate old houses
1, this move is mainly aimed at the transformation of the floor. If the old floor is torn down and a new floor is laid, the steps and costs of renovation will increase accordingly. Demolition of the old floor not only requires labor costs, but also the re-treatment of the ground is more troublesome. The simplest way is to lay a new floor directly on the basis of retaining the old floor. If it is a solid wood floor, the surface is relatively flat, without too many stains, and the damage is not serious, it is ok.
Just polish it directly, and then brush the floor paint for renovation. This saves time and effort, and can also save a lot of decoration costs.
2. When the old tiles are used for a long time, their luster will darken, and the polluted oil will not be treated well. It will be very troublesome if these old tiles are shoveled off and new tiles are laid. If the old brick is not empty, you can stick the new brick with professional adhesive. However, laying new bricks directly depends on the actual situation. If the floor itself is low, it may not be appropriate to stick new bricks directly on the old bricks, which will make the overall height shorter and give people a sense of oppression.
3. If it is the original decoration of the house, based on the principle of simplicity, the wall is pure white. Now, after a long time, I feel monotonous. At this time, if you want to add some color or vitality to the wall, there is no need to shovel off the original paint and repaint it. Wall stickers and hand-painted patterns are good choices.
4, the cabinet has been used for a long time, and it will inevitably be eroded by fumes and stains. If you are disgusted, it would be a waste to just replace these cabinets and start over-of course, it is also a good idea if you are not short of money. But what we are discussing now is the strategy of saving money by transforming old houses, so we still discuss how to make cabinets new and save money. The easiest way is to change the door of the cupboard and paint it again, which will give you a brand-new feeling and bring you a good mood.
What are the main points of intelligent renovation of old houses?
1. When the old house is renovated, do a closed water test on the bathroom to see if there is any problem with the previous waterproofing. The test method is: plug the floor drain in the bathroom, then put 5 cm of water and observe it for 24 hours. Go downstairs and check for leaks. If there is no water leakage, it will be very waterproof. If there is water leakage downstairs, it must be waterproof again. After the waterproof treatment is completed, the ground should be bricked when it is dry, otherwise the ground will crack.
2. In order to avoid the troubles caused by water and electricity in the future, the water and electricity should be handled well when the old house is rebuilt. In waterway reconstruction, water pipes with good quality and long service life must be selected. Waterway reconstruction should ensure reasonable water pipe route, tight connection and no water leakage. When transforming electric wires, aluminum wires should be removed, laid with 2.5 mm copper wires, and covered with PVC insulating tubes when the wires are buried in the wall.
3. The walls of old houses are generally peeling and cracking, so when the old houses are rebuilt, the walls should be treated at the grass-roots level. You can coat the interface agent on the wall, which can protect the latex paint and prevent it from getting wet. Then scrape putty, scrape it for about three times, and then brush latex paint. If you want to color the wall, you need to apply some primer.
4. If the wooden doors and windows of the old house are not cracked and deformed, they can be directly pasted with decorative plates and painted for further use. If the wooden doors and windows of the old house have been deformed, they must be torn down and rebuilt. Can be replaced with aluminum alloy or plastic steel doors and windows, both of which have the effect of heat insulation, sound insulation and sealing.
The renovation of old houses is much more troublesome than the renovation of new houses, so everyone needs to know how to decorate reasonably when decorating. The above is the method and key points of the old house renovation introduced by Bian Xiao today, and that's the end.
