If you want to replace the floor tile of the bathroom, after the original floor tile is chiseled away, be sure to level the floor with cement mortar first, and then do waterproof disposal. In fact, this kind of cracking is caused by cracks in the cement of the wall, or the joint cracking of the wall “insulation board”, which is not a quality problem of the decoration, but a defect that can not be overcome on the construction.
Bathroom leakage: strictly guard the corners
When you hold home decoration in the summer decoration season, pay special attention to these “sensitive areas” in home decoration. Especially in material selection and construction, you have to be extra dedicated to prevent quality problems.
Bathroom leakage: strictly guard the corners
Many families in the renovation, have to knock off the original bathroom wall and floor tiles, laying new tiles. The effect of this is to re-waterproof the wall floor of the bathroom. If there is a quality problem in the waterproof project, the water stain will spread to the adjacent room, and the heavy will leak downstairs, causing serious losses to your home and neighborhood.
There are many kinds of materials used for toilet waterproof, and basically the waterproof effect is good. But you should pay attention to the detailed construction details.
1, the bathroom floor first leveling. If you want to replace the floor tile of the bathroom, after the original floor tile is chiseled away, be sure to level the floor with cement mortar first, and then do waterproof disposal. This prevents the waterproof coating from leaking due to uneven thickness.
2. The seams should be painted in place. The joints between the bathroom wall and the ground, as well as the joints between the water pipes and the ground, are the most prone to problems. During construction, you must urge workers to dispose of these corners and corners, and all waterproof coatings must be applied “in place”.
3, wall disposal is also very important. In the same ordinary toilet waterproof treatment, the wall should also be about 30 cm high waterproof paint to prevent water permeating the wall. However, if the wall of the bathroom is a non-load-bearing light body wall, it is necessary to cover the entire wall with waterproof paint. If your home uses a two-panel shower screen, the two connected walls should also be fully painted. If your home uses a bathtub, the height of the waterproof coating on the wall adjacent to the bathtub should also be higher than the top edge of the bathtub.
4, waterproof experiment must be done. After the construction of the bathroom is completed, all the water in the bathroom is blocked, and a 25cm high “wall” is built in the door, and then 20cm high water is poured into the bathroom. After 24 hours, check the surrounding walls and floors for signs of leakage. This 24-hour waterproof experiment is the key to ensure the quality of the bathroom waterproof project, and you must do it.
5. Keep the water smooth. All the sewer pipes in the bathroom, including the floor drain and the sewer pipe of sanitary ware, should be kept unobstructed. Only in this way can we basically prevent the occurrence of the “flooded seven armies” tragedy.

In fact, this kind of cracking is caused by cracks in the cement of the wall, or the joint cracking of the wall “insulation board”, which is not a quality problem of the decoration, but a defect that can not be overcome on the construction.
Wood deformation: Keeping moisture content stable is the most important
Now, many families are in the decoration of a large number of wood products, such as curtain boxes, heaters, furniture, wood lines and doors and Windows. However, once the temperature and humidity change in the room is large, some wood products will be cracked, warped and deformed. In fact, many quality problems in home decoration are caused by the moisture content of wood products.
Whether it is real wood material or artificial board, all wood products contain a certain amount of water. Many consumers believe that the drier the wood, the better, but this view is biased. The moisture content of the wood is maintained only within the normal limits to ensure that the decoration does not cause quality problems. The same wood materials used in ordinary families, the moisture content should be about 8%. The moisture content is too high or too low, and the wood in the urban construction room will cause quality problems.
In order to keep the moisture content of the wood stable, you should pay attention to the following points in the decoration:
1. Use more artificial plates
Compared with solid wood materials, the texture properties of various artificial panels are much more stable. Due to the texture of solid wood materials, it is certain that cracking, warping and deformation will occur when the temperature and humidity change is larger. The wood-based board is the wood dissected into wood chips or wood pulp, and then re-made the board. Due to breaking the original physical structure of the wood, the “deformation” of the wood-based panel is much smaller than that of solid wood when the temperature and humidity change is larger.
2. Construction pays attention to details
In home decoration, the key to the quality of wood is the construction, especially the disposal of details:
● Paint all wood products immediately after installation. This layer of paint, called “finishing paint”, not only can cherish wood products, but also play a role in blocking water and maintaining the normal moisture content of wood;
● No water in the binder. Now in the home decoration, it is common to use white latex as a binder for the joint of wood products. Some workers cut corners by adding water to the white latex. This not only reduces the strength of the binder, but also easily causes quality problems after wood products absorb water.
● All wood should sit for a few days. After you buy the wood for decoration home, it is best to place it on the decoration site for a few days and then use it. The purpose of this is to bring the water content of the wood closer to the level of the new house.
3, the purchase of materials to be careful
When you buy wood for decoration, it is impossible to determine the moisture content of the wood only by looking at it and touching it. Some people sigh: If only by appearance inspection, the moisture content of the wood can be described as “immortal difficult to distinguish”. There are really some tips that can help you determine whether the moisture content of the wood is passing. As usual, good dry wood has significant characteristics, significant weight reduction, feel not cool, knocking sound crisp, “splash” when planing, shavings fever, planing surface. The wood with high moisture content is heavier, feels cold, and is not brittle when shavings sound, and even water from shavings. This kind of wood cannot be used.
Brief content: If you want to replace the floor tile of the bathroom, after the original floor tile is chiseled away, be sure to level the ground with cement mortar first, and then do waterproof disposal. In fact, this kind of cracking is caused by cracks in the cement of the wall, or the joint cracking of the wall “insulation board”, which is not a quality problem of the decoration, but a defect that can not be overcome on the construction.
Thermal insulation wall cracking: many facilities are cleverly accepted
Now in many new homes, there are new insulation walls with insulation layers. In the decoration of this kind of wall, it is easy to have the problem of cracking of latex paint. In fact, this kind of cracking is caused by cracks in the cement of the wall, or the joint cracking of the wall “insulation board”, which is not a quality problem of the decoration, but a defect that can not be overcome on the construction.
In order to pursue the best decorative effect and fill the construction defects with decoration, the technical staff of the decoration company came up with many facilities for the thermal insulation wall cracks, you can voucher your own appearance and decoration budget to choose:
1. After cleaning the wall substrate, paste a layer of pure cloth, kraft paper or newspaper on the wall first to exercise the tension of the fiber to ensure the integrity of the latex paint film. The facility is simple in comparison, but the effect is no less common.
2, remove the insulation board outside the wall, or remove the cement wall, install a layer of gypsum board or “five cent board” outside the insulation layer, and then do latex paint on it. This practice can remove all irregular cracks, cracks in the same place as usual is the joint between the plates, the control of interests. However, this kind of facility is expensive and difficult to construct.
3. Accept decorative materials with elasticity. Now on the disposal of the wall base, there is a “elastic putty” that can fill the problem of wall cracks at a certain level. The “three-in-one” of Libang paint can also play the role of covering fine cracks in the wall. However, the “elasticity” of these materials is small, and it does not work on the wall where the cracks are very strong.
In addition, some consumers will readily remove the insulation layer of the wall. Although this facility can be once and for all, it will reduce the thermal insulation and thermal insulation performance of the wall, so it is not recommended that you accept it.
