1. Understand the engineering and construction qualifications of decoration companies. ?
At present, the development speed of decoration market is accelerating, and various decoration companies are springing up like mushrooms after rain, but the good and the bad are intermingled, and many irregular small guerrillas live in them, which makes the owners suffer a lot, so it is extremely important to know whether the decoration companies have special decoration construction qualifications! It is the most intuitive way to know whether the decoration company has a formal business license and decoration construction certificate. Including observing whether the company has formal office space and whether it can issue standard office invoices is also one of the appraisal methods.
2. Look at the quotation of the decoration company. ?
There are two kinds of quotation methods: the first is the owner's quotation budget, and the decoration company starts to design the quotation according to the owner's requirements. The second is that the owner puts forward specific requirements for family decoration, and the decoration company reports how much it costs to realize the owner's requirements. ?
Many owners prefer to choose the second way, fearing that they will be killed by the decoration company after "getting to the bottom". Actually, it's not. In the formal decoration company industry, because the supply channels and labor costs are relatively unified, the profit rate is almost the same. The second method will spend a lot of time and energy wandering between "exploring the price" and "hiding the price", which is inefficient and slow. The first quotation method is actually more suitable for the majority of owners. Before the renovation, communicate with the decoration company how much you are going to spend and what kind of decoration effect you want to decorate. Only in this way can the decoration company give the answer whether to undertake it, and if it agrees, it can enter the specific design, quotation and negotiation stage. ?
3. negotiate with the designer. ?
Design is the soul of decorating a house. Designers should fully understand the needs of the owners in order to give a reasonable design plan, so the consultation between the owners and designers is essential.
A. Owners should communicate their ideas with designers, whether vague or concrete, because there is specialization in the technical field, and fuzzy points can better play the role of designers. ?
B.what do you do? Different occupations have different influences on themselves and have different requirements for home improvement, such as simple doctors, excellent cartoonists, dancers, athletes, teachers, journalists, singers and so on. ?
C. personal hobbies. People who like sports naturally want to bring their own fitness room at home; People who like beautiful clothes must like a cloakroom with enough space; People who like to collect are always glad that there is a special booth for people to enjoy the collection, and so on. ?
D. Living habits. For example, getting used to going to the toilet or squatting is indeed a small habit problem, but for many people, it also has a great impact on the living experience. ?
E. family members. How many people are there in an ordinary family? As a small group, it is best to consider everyone's situation and requirements when decorating the house. For example, there are old people at home who affect whether the bathroom uses non-slip floor tiles, and children at home who affect the choice of furniture materials and shapes. There are also pets, a special family member, which cannot be ignored. ?
F. Special furniture. If some families want to put a big grand piano, it is related to the design of the house. ?
G. taboos are very important. Every place has its own customs. In some places, it is considered unlucky for the water pipe to pass under the door. The location of the kitchen and dining room will affect the wealth and interpersonal relationship of the whole family. There are also places where mirrors are taboo at the door. These are all design considerations. ?
H. religious beliefs. Some owners have different religious beliefs, or believe in Christianity, Buddhism and Muslims. ?
First, ancestor worship. ?
4. Confirm the final design price. ?
After the designer gives a specific design and quotation budget, the owner should conduct an audit to see if the design meets his own requirements. If the treatment of space and the application of materials are not clear, you can also ask the designer to explain. After determining the design, carefully examine whether the amount and price of each item in the quotation are reasonable and whether to bargain. ?
5. Check the construction team. ?
The quality of decoration depends largely on the construction team, and there are many construction teams under a company, and the technology of each construction team is different, so the assessment of the construction team is also very important. ?
?
6. Audit renovation contract to eliminate loopholes. ?
After the design and quotation are agreed, the formal decoration company will sign a formal renovation contract or agreement with the owner. Matters needing attention in signing the contract are as follows:
A. The specific requirements and completion time of decoration must be clearly stated in the contract, so as to avoid defects in the quality of the construction party and delay the construction period. ?
B the specific brand, model and dosage of decoration materials shall be indicated in the contract to prevent the construction party from shoddy and cutting corners. ?
C. There should be special warranty clauses in the contract to avoid problems in quality or workmanship, and the decoration company will pass the buck. If the owner has a problem, it can be solved through consultation. ?
7. Go shopping. ?
Comparing the above four aspects in many decoration companies, you can choose the most suitable decoration company. ?
In life, everyone is very busy and likes to get answers directly, but many answers are not so credible. Blind pursuit of answers often leads to some bad results. Why not spend some time thinking about how to find the answer by yourself through effective knowledge or means, so the answer is often the most true and correct. After all, you won't deceive yourself, will you?
