To drink water for the tiles
In summer, because the materials are drier than usual, for floor tiles, ceramic tiles and other materials that need to be soaked in water, the soaking time should be extended to make them fully close to the saturated state. In this way, when paving, there will be no hollowing, shedding, etc. caused by water absorption and weak bonding with cement.
Control the setting time
When dealing with materials like gypsum, the setting time should be strictly controlled. Because in high temperature and dry weather, the molding of gypsum is more difficult to control, so the setting time should be strictly controlled to make it reach the standard compressive tensile strength and fineness.
Wall treatment should be discerning
When dealing with interior wall coatings, due to the influence of the hot summer climate, special attention should be paid to its stability, bonding strength and initial drying crack resistance. The method adopted at this time is: carefully observe the subtleties, make detailed time records, and then compare them.
Pay attention to the thermal expansion and contraction of the size
When measuring and installing plastic-steel doors, windows, and sliding doors, pay attention to thermal expansion and contraction in size arrangement. Because plastic steel is a material that is greatly affected by temperature, if the size arrangement is too compact, gaps and deformation will appear due to the drop in temperature in winter, so there should be a little surplus in size.
When paving the floor, the gaps should be arranged more tightly than before, so as to avoid the gaps becoming larger and affecting the appearance when the temperature drops. The joints between the floor and the wall can be transitioned by “floor beading”. In this way, not only the disadvantages of the excessive gap between the wall and the floor are solved, but also the aesthetic effect is achieved.
Moisture protection is key
In the relatively humid and hot summer decoration, the key is to prevent moisture. In summer, the air humidity is high, and some materials that are easy to absorb moisture, such as wood, boards, and gypsum boards, are not handled properly during transportation and are extremely susceptible to moisture. After the moisture in the material is released, it is easy to crack and deform, and it will also affect other materials and affect the quality. When buying wood, be sure to go to a large wholesaler, because the wood of a large wholesaler has been dried. They pick up the goods directly from the container, reducing the intermediate links, and reducing the chance of the wood getting wet. If the moisture-proof work is not done well, problems such as wood deformation, floor warping, wall cracks, paint drying, and fogging will easily occur during the air-dry season. In hot summer, the paint dries slowly after being painted on. Moreover, the paint absorbs moisture in the air and is prone to fogging.
In addition, latex paint often encounters the problem of mildew and odor in hot tidal weather due to its slow drying. In this regard, the general method of decoration companies is to turn on the air conditioner to dehumidify and remove the moisture in the air; the doors of the furniture cabinets are not closed to maintain ventilation. After decoration, there will be problems that various odors cannot be released, which will affect people’s health. Relevant people suggest that more green plants can be used to remove odors through photosynthesis, or two or three lemons, oranges, and bananas can be placed in the room to quickly remove odors.
As for the reason for the blackening of the balcony parapet wall, the main reason is that the outer wall is wet in rainy days, and the moisture slowly seeps in from the outside of the wall. After the parapet wall is sealed with paint, the moisture cannot be emitted outward, resulting in blackening and paint film. It is tilted up, so when the parapet is built against the balcony, the water surface behind the balcony must be treated first.
