How to build a house cheaply in the countryside?

1, don't blindly chase after the oversized building area.

This is the most direct, fastest and most effective at present, and it is also the first priority for most self-built houses in China from the perspective of saving money. As the name implies, there must be multiple differences in the overall budget between building a house of 1000 square meters and building a house of 300 square meters. In the past, many owners were constantly pursuing super-large building area. More importantly, the deepening of indoor functions corresponding to this huge total construction area is not synchronized, which directly leads to the imbalance, emptiness and lack of content in the use space. In many projects, the area can be reduced by guidance. We take the local building installation cost 1 1,000 yuan | square meters as the standard, and we can save 1 1,000 yuan per 10 square meters of construction area. You see, what other tricks can be more direct than this? (Note: This time, it does not include the builders who really need space, such as the so-called demolition and looting of houses and large-population family houses. What I advocate is that in the case of reasonable use and the short-term and long-term value of self-built houses do not need to be improved through super-large areas, we can consider reducing space through reasonable distribution. ).

2. Make a building that looks the same and spend money on the cutting edge.

This point is also considered again and again. I think for most self-built houses, the residential property is the first property. Therefore, we need an architectural layout with comfortable configuration, convenient and efficient use (but interesting) and consistent appearance, that is, the plane overall design (general plane+plane design) most often mentioned in architectural design. Corresponding to this is the relative simplification of the architectural appearance and the symmetry in proportion, and the symmetrical beauty of the building is expressed by large blocks. If it rises to the pseudo-European style that is extremely popular in rural areas, all kinds of complicated facade lines, stone modeling, roof corners and so on. This budget will get out of control (of course, for example, most castles in southeastern Europe, saving money may be just a modest joke). From my personal work experience, I advocate modern and simple modern residence more and more, which is also an improved architectural category. It is not a modern minimalist mansion with huge floor-to-ceiling glass and endless swimming pools on major construction websites and impurities. On the contrary, I mean on the basis of an excellent graphic design, use local materials as much as possible and simplify the facade as much as possible. Absorb the techniques of volume quantification in modern simple houses, enjoy more space allocation, appropriately reduce the building area, and at the same time, don't spend the limited building budget excessively on the building facade that is not close to the body.

3. Control the window opening area as reasonably as possible, and it is better to open the window than to land.

Many owners who have not built houses will only calculate the total construction area multiplied by the unit price of Jian' an to get a price. What I want to tell you now is that in high-quality buildings, glass windows are an important part of payment. Running around in the material market, the price of windows is very different. Prices range from low-end 300-400 plastic steel windows to high-end 4000 square meters aluminum windows or system windows. 500 square meters of self-built houses, in the case of proper pursuit of floor-to-ceiling windows or wide opening, the window opening area is casual 100㎡. If the window area data of a 1000 square meter is100 square meter, then the total price here is 654.38+ten thousand yuan. Imagine, if the area reaches 200m2, if the unit price is raised to 2,000m2 of high-grade windows, then the window alone will reach the budget of 400,000. Quietly, it can be higher! Therefore, the window should be opened in a suitable position, and the area of the window should be scientifically controlled within the most reasonable range. For buildings that don't need to open large windows, we should avoid opening large windows, such as the north (because the cold wind blows from the north in winter, which is not conducive to keeping warm in most areas in winter) and the west (the hot sun in the west will make the whole house heat up rapidly and bring bad experience to living). In order to maintain convection, we can open some small high windows or long vertical windows. Don't blindly seek big! Don't blindly seek big! Don't blindly seek big!

4, the building foundation is not the thicker the steel bar, the thicker the concrete pouring, the better.

Building a house needs reasonable configuration, economy, firmness and beauty. It's not that I don't care about black and white. I just want to dig deep at the thought of building a foundation, use thicker steel bars and buy large concrete. I have encountered such a situation in too many practical projects. Generally, private houses will not exceed 3 or 5 floors (I have also seen self-built houses with floors above 10 in southeast provinces, which is another cognitive world, so let's not say it for the time being). The economic application of such a low-rise residence requires professional structural engineering combined with the actual situation of construction land. After calculation based on the geological exploration data issued by the owner, it is not necessary to continue to add materials and labels on the basis of calculation to pursue a kind of psychological peace. It is more reasonable to put your heart in your stomach and work as planned with peace of mind than to work according to the contractor's experience. At least relatively more confident!

5. It is very important to synchronize architectural design with interior design.

Most of us have the experience of buying commercial housing, and when we decorate it after buying it, we often have to face a lot of demolition and transformation work. This kind of work is built in civil engineering (this is material+salary), and it should be demolished when it is built (there is salary here). After the demolition, other parts such as the wall should be rebuilt according to the new built-in scheme (a material+labor is added here). In this way, the budget of this part of the house has virtually doubled. Therefore, from about 20 18, I have been advocating the synchronous promotion of interior and architectural design, trying to ensure that there are no or few changes in the indoor installation stage, such as the completion of the masonry site, the position of the water and electricity supervisor and the reserved point of the jack, which can save materials and wages. However, such an operation has extremely high requirements for owners and designers. If architecture is to shape a large scale, then the interior is to make the building close to people more reasonable. How to effectively coordinate and integrate different majors at the beginning of the scheme (usually divided into architecture, interior and landscape, and the planning of some super-large projects is the most promising) requires a lot of abilities, which can only be possessed after the project is fed.

6. The project contracting method must avoid hourly work as much as possible.

What is a part-time job? And in order to hire the construction team to build their own houses, the settlement of their wages is calculated on a daily basis, and the daily workload is comprehensively distributed. Even in today's era, I still have many owners who choose this form to reach a housing construction contract with the construction party. But so far, almost no car owner has not been cheated. A day's work will give you three working hours! Therefore, especially owners who have no basic concept of architecture can choose semi-package or full package. One advantage of this is that no matter how the other party delays the construction speed, as long as the total amount remains unchanged, it means that the salary will always be so much. However, such a half-package or full-package will often have another situation, that is, the construction party will speed up desperately to complete the project construction as soon as possible, and then transfer to the next project after delivery. In this way, owners should be more worried about the quality of their houses and pay more attention to them.

7. At present, many places at the top of the slope don't save money.

Why doesn't the top of the slope save money? Let's talk about the way most construction teams calculate the total area of houses. In many places, the construction team has to calculate the construction area of a sloping roof separately, and his calculation range is not the outside of the attic, but the drip line behind the eaves of the roof. The converted area will suddenly understand that the actual cost of a sloping roof is equal to the so-called area of a single-story building. In other places, the construction team directly calculates the area of one and a half floors, and you can imagine it when you look at it. In other words, many private houses in rural areas first water the flat roof, and then build a sloping roof with a wooden frame on this flat roof. The attic formed under such a sloping roof has basically lost its residential property. On weekdays, it is basically used as a thermal insulation and waterproof storage for some seasonal large items, not the beautiful attic that we often see. Although the picture is beautiful, it really needs financial support! ! !

8. Large duplex with spiral stairs, "beauty" = "expensive"!

At present, too many friends who are building houses in the countryside like the double-decked empty living room, which is a luxurious private house in people's minds. If the land conditions permit, the frequency of spiral stairs among my customers is excellent. You know, most rural private houses with small floor area and low budget have a bad feeling of feet coming from the rotating floor plate. However, when calculating the building area, the larger cantilever is also calculated according to the whole floor, but with the increase of the fixed area of the supporting window surface, the incidental effect cost will naturally increase.

9, building materials should not be far and near.

The Internet era has created a huge logistics system in China to some extent. So when we built the house, we finally realized the opportunity to choose materials nationwide. This is good news for designers in this field, because we can finally choose design materials nationwide, but this may be a factor for owners to increase their construction budget. Take the clay brick with upper surface as an example, its freight is close to about two-thirds of the unit price of a single brick. Similarly, other building materials are also faced with such embarrassment, that is, the unit price of the materials themselves is not high, but there is a premium space in the transportation to the construction site, which leads to an increase in construction costs. Therefore, when selecting raw materials under the premise of ensuring quality, we should not only look at the unit price of materials, but also synthesize the total cost after each cost, so as to know how to make the right choice.

10, professional things should be given to professional people.

Building a house is a systematic project, which requires years of practical experience and mastery of relevant architectural theories, and gradually develops into a qualified designer. Not to mention a complete outsider, it is almost impossible to control a self-built house by feeling or temporary study and research. Therefore, it is extremely important to find a design team, make an overall case, and let them help themselves to connect with various types of work, get a good time node, and comprehensively handle the connection of various types of work. It is an important part of saving money to use tens of thousands of housing funds clearly, and it is also an important opportunity for the house to be more comfortable, healthier and more lasting in the future.

Naturally, there are many places where you can save money by building your own house, but always understand that all savings are relative. To the extent possible, it is the key point to plan ahead, master the price fluctuation of materials within one year, rent equipment for installation, reduce the rate of repeated demolition and renovation in the process of building, and make the building take as few detours as possible.
