Decoration budget is the step that each owner needs to make when decoration, not only in order to understand the expenditure of decoration funds, but also in order to control the decoration cost, but most owners will find that the decoration cost is much more than the decoration budget, today we will explain the Xining decoration budget trap.
Trap # 1: Break the whole thing into pieces. Some decoration companies put a quotation project is divided into multiple items to quote, for example, the wall paint project is divided into primer, finish paint and other small items, each small item looks like the price is not high, but it adds up to a large section.
Trap # 2: Tabloids. Deliberately underquoting a large number of items will drive down the total quoted price and make the budget look competitive.
Trap No. 3: The paper doesn’t report. In the budget deliberately omitted some decoration must have fixed items, such as to expand the door, must do the wall project; Do geothermal, must do the original heating disassembly project. Because the budget is not done in advance, and the construction has to be carried out, the decoration company has reached the purpose of the price increase.
Trap # 4: False reports. Deliberately put some of the eliminated process or practice in the budget, the owner does not accept the inevitable modification, once modified, the decoration company will sit on the price.
Trap # 5: Double counting. Budget deliberately confused units of measurement, the algorithm of some projects to irregular algorithm, cover up the truth of double calculation, resulting in the settlement of the total price multiplied. If the calculation of the wall coating area, will be removed and change other decorative wall calculation; The electricity conversion project is calculated according to the length of the meter, which is reasonable, but the result of the settlement is calculated according to the length of the wire used, rather than by the number of meters of the sleeve.
Trap # 6: Not fine. The decoration process is more complex, and what kind of process is used and related to the main material. After the main material is clear, the process can be truly determined. Some decoration companies deliberately highlight the process in the quotation, the main material fuzzy, in the actual construction of the main material selection scheme, to achieve the purpose of alternative technology, improve the decoration price.
Trap # 7: Blanket offers. Occurs in the simple home decoration project, deliberately general price, and in the actual decoration, but derived a number of “not in the quote” pricing projects, so that consumers spend more money.
Trap number eight: Process modification. Now many decoration companies are to take the work and then subcontract to workers. So in practice, the decoration company first write out the process, and then do a puff. In the construction, the workers will kindly tell the owners, this is not good, that is not good, we are using what method, and so on, but also the false fishy said that there is no extra charge for change. Its approach is to promote more money saving, labor saving to achieve the purpose of workers themselves to save time, labor, jerry-building.
Trap No. 9: Not being seen. Owners generally like to shop around. Construction companies quote extremely low prices for common, easy to compare items, and then get their money back on difficult items through other means.
In this regard, Fu Wo home network to remind consumers in the decoration should do the following: to invite professional or decoration experience to help audit the budget table; To sign a written contract with Xining decoration company “without increasing the budget, to ensure that the budget effect is fully realized”; All the quantities should be calculated against the drawings and the actual situation of the site, focusing on the area of latex paint, the length of the kicking line, the laying area of the tile, the area of the ceiling, etc.; Pay for projects in a way that saves money and is as friendly as possible, because any project you cut is likely to be the most “moisture” part of them.
