Why do you have to pretend? The more money you spend?

If you are not careful, the money will be gone! This is a common feeling when everyone is decorating. I should hear Fan Wei's soul torture here: I don't want to know how I got here, I want to know how I didn't ... There is another sentence from the editor that can shock the softest place in your heart: Do you think you can keep Grandpa Mao by being careful everywhere? Even if it is a clear plan, you may just know in advance: this decoration will toss out the reality of your home. If you saw the last white rhinoceros a few years ago and were protected by armed guards, the species would eventually become extinct in a few years. No matter how depressed we are, there is nothing we can do-this is the feeling. In fact, it doesn't matter if you lose, because after long-term observation, the editor found that compared with loss, the most unbearable psychological experience for human beings is uncertainty. It doesn't matter if it's not important. If you know, just tell me. Last year, the white rhinoceros finally died of old age. Don't think about it.

At first, dig a big hole.

The beginning of this attempt is because the owner often asks the editor: Where do you think my family will generate expenses? Can you tell me in advance? At this point, the editor remembered the confusing multiple-choice question when he was a student: grading is not difficult, and full marks are a dream. As a result, the editor began to collect these materials one day, and when there were not many items, he could recite them from memory. After more than ten times, he found it more difficult to recite them than to recite the Model.

After dawdling for a month, one day the editor opened his notes and found that he had written 30 articles. He was excited: these are enough to write several articles! The editor then pieced together this series of "lost money", and later some owners asked and forwarded these articles to them. At the same time, the editor numbered these items. If your home is being renovated and you happen to step on some of them, please move your finger and let the editor know what you have encountered in the message at the back.

Seriously, we can't understand the specific details mentioned by the editor in detail, taking Shanghai as the reference and the differences caused by regional problems. On the one hand, don't be dogmatic, on the other hand, please leave me a message to add, if your city has a special model, or you have a clever solution to the problem.

1- 1? Gas pipes and meters

Aren't you going to connect the gas pipe? This is a question that owners often ask. Well, let's just say that the last time many masters connected the gas pipes themselves, they probably used galvanized iron pipes. I haven't touched the gas pipeline for so many years, and with the changes in materials and technology, plumbers are probably no different from novices.

The reconstruction or laying of gas pipeline is divided into two blocks: before table (including inside table) and after table. The front of the table must be operated by professionals of the gas company. Of course, the price is not mentioned, and there is no room for it. Don't mess around by yourself. There are roughly three options in the back part of the table. Let us elaborate on them.

First, look for a gas company, the price will be higher;

Second, let the master who installed the water heater install the gas pipe by the way, which is about 80- 100 yuan per meter, and each interface fitting is 50 yuan. Under the pattern of an ordinary apartment kitchen, it may be the total price of 800-900 yuan;

Third, there are experts who specialize in connecting gas pipelines, and the editors have not deliberately investigated their origins. It is very likely that they are the masters who install water heaters and work when they are not busy.

The last possibility is not ruled out, that is, these masters who do work are simply a group of people who charge for what uniforms they wear.

In addition, if you buy a gas water heater in a store or online, a master will install it, and he will operate the gas pipeline. If you do floor heating or radiator at home, HVAC companies generally don't operate gas pipelines, so you have to find another way, which is also an unexpected expense.

1-2? Illegal expenses

Once the editor and the owner went to the property company to go through the construction procedures. After the formalities were completed, the owner told the editor that almost all the residents in their community knocked a little on the wall that was not allowed to be demolished. The previous owner's experience is that knocking on the door will not interfere with the property, but the deposit exceeding 1000 yuan will not be refunded in the end. This is a special way of tacit understanding and a kind of dedication. I can feel that the owners actually prefer such a property company that has reached a tacit understanding with them. But the editor said that the load-bearing structure should not be damaged as much as possible, especially the concrete part.

1-3 mobile access control

The location of access control is often not ideal. If you want to change, you must let the property company operate. The specific process is that the property manager comes to the door and makes an appointment with you. Generally, the plumber is only responsible for slotting and leaving boxes, and he is responsible for installing and connecting. At this time, there may be a little cost to the property here, but it will not be much, so I will mention it.

Just after the prison-like startup text was written, a beautiful woman told me that their residential property operation fee was 1000, and he found a little brother to get it done for 200 yuan. However, the property will not undertake maintenance in the future. This ... ten minutes, the editor only charges 50. The problem is that the significance of finding a property is that he will bear the maintenance in the future.

1-4 Punching

Punching in often overspends. According to the editor's incomplete statistics, there are the following kinds of overruns.

First, when the budget estimate is too small, of course, five or six is not too small.

Second, there are many renovations of sewer pipes;

Third, the overall increase of HVAC perforation (this is the most common);

Fourth, intelligent punching and integral addition;

Fifth, punch holes and cut concrete (the editor suggests that you give up the plan to destroy the load-bearing structure);

6. Overreporting the number of holes punched, such as repeatedly counting from both sides of the wall;

Seven, it is a combination of the above situations.

One more thing, after the second-hand house is demolished, there are often old perforations to borrow, but not new ones. General construction quotation will not include air conditioning floor heating, after all, high cost will weaken competitiveness. In 40 yuan, where the market price is slightly higher, the cost overrun of 1 1,000 yuan is only standard. Fortunately, counting holes is easy. You can count your own questions.

1-5 Demolition of concrete structure beams and columns

Some brick walls have concrete constructional columns, which are generally distributed vertically and horizontally, and the corners are strengthened. Because when making budget or demolition estimation, only brick walls are used as reference, the work intensity will be different. In practice, if there are only a few concrete structures, they are generally discussed and ignored; If the amount of demolition is large and there are many constructional columns, you can directly discuss with the person in charge of demolition. It's not a particularly exaggerated amount of demolition, it's about a few hundred dollars.

Although it's overspent, we can have some fun. Speaking of conservative and standardized civil works, the quality of this house should be predictable, and the waterproof and thermal insulation are reliable.

1-6 concrete wall grooving

Water and electricity slotting, concrete cutting and brick wall cutting are completely different in difficulty, so the unit price is also different. You can take a closer look at the budget. The editor once met a small high-rise apartment with a room age of about 25 years, and he was dumbfounded when he removed the plastering layer. All concrete, no bricks. Electricians complain while working-there's nothing they can do. Let's count the construction quantity afterwards and make a supplement. This addition comes from the characteristics of the house itself, but fortunately the increment will not be very large. The difference between one meter concrete trough and one meter brick trough is generally in the order of 10 yuan, and the increment of a house is about 20-50 meters. Therefore, many owners are now looking for supervisors to audit the budget in metropolis, which can avoid the above situation well.

1-7 rusty iron pipe painting

There are always more things that make people scratch their heads when decorating old houses. For example, we often encounter a cast iron sewer pipe that is not smooth, or we may encounter a cast iron sewer pipe that has broken a hole and is therefore quite smooth. At this point, you can notify the property and carry out on-site maintenance and update. The editor's description of the damage degree of cast iron pipes and the countermeasures is as follows:

1 The cast iron pipeline has been obviously damaged-it needs to be replaced with PVC.

2. The corrosion is serious, and a hole can be poked with a screwdriver-refer to the previous one;

3 There is rust, but there is no hole yet-PVC is the first choice. If the property is not compliant, the next best thing is to do rust prevention treatment seriously, and the weak parts can be served by plastic steel and soil;

4 intact, only a few rust marks-if you can make up your mind, change it to PVC, and if you don't change it, strengthen rust prevention.

Above. Naturally, painters brush antirust paint, and there is always a little material+labor.

1-8 railings corroded by paint

Go on with the previous paragraph. The railings of some houses have rusted, even if the new aluminum alloy glass room keeps the rusted railings out, it is incompatible with the brand-new living room in the future. Usually at this time, it's the old way to find a painter to paint. The shape of your railing and the severity of rust should cause more trouble to the painter than you expected. A two-meter-long rusty railing may not be enough for a day. If your balcony is four meters long at the corner, and it is also located in the north-south direction, then it will inevitably cost some money. Fortunately, it will not be too exaggerated. There are no particularly expensive materials for this project. Most of the telephone charges are manual, and the quality will not be different. In addition, since the decoration company generally does not care, you can directly discuss the labor costs with the painter.

Message from the editor in charge of Niu Jiao.

There are too many uncertain details in the decoration. Every trivial detail change may cost you a little more money. Even an experienced owner like an editor will spend more or less on renovation. Moreover, some of the overspending belongs to what you didn't think clearly, and some of the overspending is caused by the uncertainty of the decoration itself. No matter how you study beforehand and how you do your homework with your heart, it is inevitable. So increase your acceptance of uncertainty and be more tolerant, and the decoration will become more interesting. You can join some decoration consulting groups, see more and listen more. Although you can't avoid uncertainty, you can greatly reduce it.

This answer comes from the supervision of users' horn decoration, more decoration strategies, and home experience. Welcome to the application.
