As usual, before the renovation, we find several companies to compare the decoration budget quotation, but the decoration project is almost the same, why they will have such a big difference in the decoration budget? All said that home decoration is the owner and the decoration company battle of wits and courage of the course, that in order for us not to fall into the decoration company set the trap, together to understand the common secret of the decoration company!
Trick one: Clever treaty trick
Confuse the general price of materials, confuse the views of the calculation of the amount is the practice of individual home improvement companies. When signing a contract, the general quotation of a certain material is calculated, and the single material is replaced during construction to earn the difference. In addition, some clauses are not detailed or can be annotated in order to escape.
Secret two: low offer to solicit business, start and then increase items
When the customer asks for a quote, the individual decoration company first cuts the project and gives a quote lower than that of other companies, forming a “low budget” to attract consumers to sign the bill. During the construction process, the deleted items will be regarded as additions, and the money will be raised back to form a “high final account”. After completion, consumers found that the cost of the settlement was much higher than the budget.
Trick three: The designer intends to increase the item, take more commission
After receiving the order, some designers, in order to take more commissions from the company, drop the real shape of the consumer’s home, intentionally add decoration projects: such as adding a distance to the place that does not need to do the distance, the place that does not need the ceiling and so on. After a “design”, the decoration price is much higher than the original budget.
Secret four: the material procurement is shoddy
In the decoration of contracted materials, the individual construction team manipulated the procurement of materials, some of them pretended to be brand-name products with inferior goods, and acted as genuine products at low prices.
Trick five: Lying about the measurement area
Individual decoration companies lie and overreport on the construction area, such as when planning to paint the wall latex paint, they do not deduct the area of doors and Windows, or increase the length and width of the wall to increase the decoration budget.
Trick six: Convert the material measurement unit
Clever conversion of material measurement units is the most commonly used and hidden method for decoration companies to earn profits.
Secret seven: Building materials consumption stress false report
Regardless of tile, floor, or ceiling, the same usual city set a certain proportion of consumption on the price list. But in reality, the consumption of decoration is far less than the decoration company said. The normal consumption of various processes: 800mm×800mm floor tile consumption in 6%, 300mm×450mm wall tile consumption in 5% latex paint consumption in 3% floor consumption in 5%.” It is really difficult for the owner to calculate the actual consumption in the end, and the excess “consumption” materials will flow into the pocket of the decoration company.
Trick No. 8: Double counting
Such as “grooving” (line grooving, etc.), some companies confuse views, charge miscellaneous fees, and then charge another grooving fee. In fact, grooving is a kind of miscellaneous. As usual, paint is painted outside the cabinet and varnish is painted inside the cabinet, but when some companies charge, paint is charged twice, the reason is that varnish must be painted before painting.
Warm reminder:
Decoration tricks can also be prevented: decoration in the early stage to see more decoration knowledge. Decoration details can not be careless must be carefully checked. It is also important to find a decoration company worthy of trust. Decoration treaty to write details do not be decoration companies have an opportunity. Be sure to remember: budget a certain amount of money for you, the final account is a certain amount of money. Low open high walk, less calculation miss calculation? It’s all on the company’s shoulders, and it’s written into the treaty!
