20,000-30,000 yuan decoration (57 square meters house, not counting household appliances)

In the decoration, we should consider the price of cement, sand and white cement, the loss in the decoration process, and the ratio of floor to size. In this way, we still sum up the amount of materials in use, and then we can really calculate the amount of materials.

For laying ceramic tiles, granite and other materials on the ground, about 90kg cement is used per 10m, and 5% loss should be prepared for 0.3m sand as the main material.

Second, how to divide the proportion of various materials?

When we go to the material market to purchase materials, we will of course prepare a certain amount. At this time, it is necessary to divide the purchase price in proportion. If you only spend most of the total amount on the ground, other materials will not go up. Usually, the proportion of materials is as follows (this is reference data, and we can also divide the proportion according to the actual situation and our own intentions): Content description proportion

Ground stone, ceramic tile, wooden floor, etc. 40%

20% wood and decorative panels for doors and windows.

10% is used for lockers that need to be processed on site without purchasing furniture.

Oils include paints, coatings and all other oil-related materials 10%.

5% of the warm materials are replaced by pipes and water changing nozzles.

Wires, switches, lights, etc. 15%

Iii. Where to deposit 10%

Whether it is planned spending or \ "comfortable spending \", as the owner of room decoration, all want to do more with less money, and there is a limit to spending money before decoration. For example, when decorating, we suggest that you save 10% of the quota for future use. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Because even if you have more experience, it is difficult to consider the room decoration in advance, and it is common to lose things. There is a lamp missing in the hall, which affects the lighting effect; I want to add a cupboard for sundries in the corner, etc. A little east and a little west will cost you a lot of money, so I saved 10% at the beginning of the renovation to fill this vacancy. I am very calm.

Fourth, how much to spend and how many things to do.

1. Never tell the decoration company how much money to install the bedroom. Assuming that only 40,000 yuan is enough for the whole house decoration, but 60,000 yuan has been prepared without knowing it, then the decoration company reported 55,000 yuan, and the loss is not too big.

2. You can't just negotiate with the decoration company. You should shop around and find whoever is cheaper.

3. The quotation of the decoration company contains a lot of water, even if you cut it in half, there is still a lot of profit, so you should calculate the actual cost of decoration.

5. Where did the money for the decoration go?

1. Main materials (such as wood floor, veneer, paint, etc. ).

2. Auxiliary materials (such as floor glue, cement sand, etc. ).

3. Transportation expenses (the fare from the material market to the construction site).

4. Labor costs (workers plus labor wages).

5. Loss expense (material loss or surplus material expense).

6. Tool consumption (such as drills, grinders, etc. ).

7. Water and electricity charges (the total cost of water and electricity consumed in the renovation process).

8. The profit of the decoration company (the decoration company will give you some profit).

Sixth, how to reduce costs

1. Invite experienced people to purchase materials together, because people familiar with the material market know the market price, which saves money, time and effort.

2. The so-called \ "short-term business is difficult to do \" actually means that no one buys materials and the price is cheap. Buying materials at this time is a good way to save money.

3. It's best not to invite a big decoration company, because the cost of a big decoration company is relatively high, and the cost may not be affordable.

4. In order to ensure the quality and avoid secondary rework, it is best not to ask street workers for construction, which is small and cheap.

5. Using parts of one material in a large area can reduce the price and ultimately save a lot of money.

Seven, easy to ignore the place

1. Living room

A, the small area is covered with dark ground, which feels very narrow and depressing.

B, the power supply and closed-circuit plug on the wall forgot to change the line and shift, and it was too far away from the place where the TV and stereo were to be put.

C, the living room shoes are in a mess, and a storage cabinet is not prepared.

D. There is a walkway between the sofa and the TV cabinet, and someone walks by, which disturbs people from enjoying the program.

E, the material of the ground is too hard and cold, and people will feel a chill when they live in it.

2. Bedroom

A, design a sunny window directly opposite the bed. The sunlight will disturb people's sleep.

B, there is no power supply and plug at the bedside; The switch is too far from the bed, so I sleep in the dark every day.

C, children's room light is not enough, affecting vision.

D, the window facing the street is not soundproof, and the noise is annoying.

E, the ceiling color is too bright, which makes people excited and difficult to sleep.

F. There is no toilet mirror near the wardrobe.

Eight, home improvement in forbidden areas.

1. The bearing wall of brick wall reinforced concrete, with a thickness of more than 240mm, cannot be dismantled.

2. Half of the balcony wall can't be removed.

3. The beams and columns in the room can't be dismantled.

Nine, the glass world

In our daily life, we can often see glass. Different kinds of glass in home decoration are used in different places, and there is also great stress. Glass can be roughly divided into: frosted glass, embossed glass, colored glass, laminated glass and glass brick. The uses of glass in room decoration are: glass doors, bathroom glass doors, partition glass, glass doors, glass brick partitions, glass ceilings, etc. When it comes to glass, it is natural to think of mirrors. If there is no mirror in the living room, it is unthinkable. The position of the mirror is very important, that is to say, what kind of mirror should be placed in what kind of space. For example, the bedroom should be equipped with a toilet mirror, and the dining room wall should be hung with a large flat mirror, a bathroom mirror and a display cabinet mirror.

Ten, enter the iron art family.

Iron flower products were first used outdoors, and gradually entered the family in recent years with the return to simple fashion. Iron art can be seen everywhere, which can not only play a cool and simple effect, but also reflect the modern sense.

1, wrought iron can only be used as the finishing touch.

2. If wrought iron can be used together, such as putting an iron chair table next to the iron partition, the effect is more natural than suddenly appearing.

3. The overall texture of wrought iron products is cold, so be careful when choosing.

4. It is generally more comfortable to choose thin wrought iron products indoors.

XI。 Matters needing attention in "home improvement" contract

A. be fully prepared. It is better for both parties to attach a clause when signing the contract. If Party A is not satisfied with the construction of the decoration team, it has the right to terminate the contract within ten days from the date of construction.

B. Before signing the contract, check whether the business license of Party B is issued by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.

C in order not to lose money on materials, it is necessary to specify which parts of the contract used which materials.

The terms of payment should be indicated in the contract, preferably by installment. That is, 30% will be paid after the contract is signed, 50% will be paid in the interim, and it will be paid after the completion acceptance.

E. Responsibilities and obligations of both parties in the contract: During the construction process, the constructor has the responsibility to carry out the work according to the customer's requirements, which shall not be changed without reason, and the customer also has the obligation to provide water, electricity and other conditions for the constructor.

F. the construction period shall be agreed by both parties in advance. The contractor shall be responsible for the delay caused by the contractor. If the Employer has special reasons or natural reasons, the construction period shall be postponed, but a temporary change agreement shall be signed with the Contractor.

G. At the end of the project, acceptance is essential in the construction process. There must be formalities for acceptance or not, and no verbal agreement can be made. The formalities should be stamped with Party B's official seal, not just the representative's signature.

H. In order to prevent the occurrence of breach of contract in construction, when signing a contract, you should not just write "both parties work together to solve the problem", but should indicate that it should be submitted to the local court or consumer association for settlement.

1. Party A shall sign an agreement with Party B on safety production and fire prevention. If Party B has any illegal operation in the operation, Party A shall not condone it, and shall stop it in time when problems are found. Pay attention to the "hidden danger" clause. For example, the contract says that the construction period is 50 working days, but Party B can work for one day if he wants to, or he won't come if he doesn't want to. When can he make up for 50 days? It should be indicated that the project will be completed on a certain day in a certain year. If the interior wall coating is written in the contract and the brand is not indicated, then Party B can use ordinary interior wall coating instead of advanced interior wall coating.

J. Pay attention to the "hidden danger" clause. For example, the contract says that the construction period is 50 working days, but Party B can work for one day if he wants to, or he won't come if he doesn't want to. When can he make up for 50 days? It should be indicated that the project will be completed on a certain day in a certain year. If the interior wall coating is written in the contract and the brand is not indicated, then Party B can use ordinary interior wall coating instead of advanced interior wall coating.

K the loss of general materials should be below 5%. Some construction teams do not pay attention to saving materials, and dig and dig indiscriminately, resulting in considerable material losses. Therefore, when signing a contract, it should be agreed in the remarks column. Note: If the material loss caused by Party B in the construction process exceeds 5%, the loss expenses shall be borne by Party B. ..

Twelve. Regional classification of "home decoration"

Formal decoration companies should also be very strict in the classification of jobs, with detailed requirements and clear responsibilities. The people we sometimes meet can not only lay bricks, but also weld, so they belong to the \ \ \ "wild road \ \". The division of labor of a normal decoration company is as follows:

Site foreman: responsible for overall work. Such as organizing discipline to communicate with residents, discussing plans with contractors and designers, etc.

Woodworking: responsible for all woodworking work. Such as ceiling, making furniture, wooden floor, heating cover, door and window edging, installing mirrors, etc.

Electrician: Responsible for all work related to electricity. Such as wiring, installation of lamps and electrical switches, etc.

Oilman: Responsible for all painting work. Such as painting doors, windows, furniture and walls.

Plumber: responsible for the renovation of water pipes and gas pipes and the installation of toilet equipment.

Masonry: responsible for laying stones and tiles and all the work related to cement mortar.

If the workload of \ "home improvement \" is heavy, handyman is needed to be responsible for cleaning, cleaning up garbage and carrying materials. If the project is small, such handyman can be replaced by other jobs.

Another important way to choose a home improvement company is to pay attention to the quality of the manager. The internal management of a company with a bad reputation is chaotic, and managers often make the following mistakes:

1, opportunistic When the customer is not present, he instructs the workers to use inferior materials for construction, and when the customer checks, he denies or evades.

2. Words don't count. After making an appointment with a client, I often fail to be punctual, or find other excuses to simply push the meeting off.

3. Poor memory. The customer's requirements are not met, completely forgotten, or deliberately delayed.

4. The attitude is outrageous. When the client signed the contract with him, his attitude suddenly changed, and he even threatened with threatening words.

Therefore, if you want to decorate your bedroom beautifully, it is very important to choose a regular decoration company.
