Winter decoration consumers are most worried about quality

Now that the arrival of the busy season, many consumers are facing the issue of whether or not to decorate in winter. According to the home improvement company, the rigorous construction process can guarantee that there will be no major problems after construction in the winter. Therefore, there are not a few consumers who have started renovations.

Hand in the hot season to stimulate the winter decoration

Consumers worry about construction quality problems

Mr. Li purchased a second-hand house in the middle of this year. He intends to renovate it as soon as possible, and will be able to move to a new home in the next year. All sorts of formalities can be completed. Together with the home improvement company and the private construction team, it started in mid-October. Seeing that in November, the decoration issue has not yet fully unfolded, and another news came that heating may be advanced this year. The temperature turned sharply. In the face of the embarrassing situation in winter construction, Mr. Li had a lot of worries.

Not only did Mr. Li face such a situation, but I learned that the current situation of home improvement companies is quite good. Even some foremen consider both the site and the site. It shows that many owners are facing the problem of winter decoration. The annual house handover season prompted the winter construction this year.

Winter construction is not scary to prevent the four hidden dangers

In response to the problems that winter construction may face, the author also conveyed Mr. Li’s concerns. Hu Zengguang, the manager of the company’s engineering department, summarized the four points of attention for the owners of the winter decoration. Hu Zengguang said: “One of the most important prerequisites for winter construction is that the indoor temperature must always be maintained at minus 5 degrees Celsius, otherwise it will greatly affect the quality of construction.” He said that Beijing is about to usher in zero temperatures while all the decoration The owners should pay attention to the heating conditions, try to open the heating decoration. Otherwise, once the night's temperature is below 5 degrees Celsius above zero, construction quality may be compromised.

Precautions 1: Use glue - ensure that the temperature will allow the glue to dry quickly without delay

When decorating, there may be many places where glue is used. Ceilings, walls, interior decorations... These things are inevitably used in the construction process. Some special parts may also use a lot of glue. Hu Zengguang said that the temperature is too low, even if the glue does not fail, there is still adhesion, but its slow dry, affecting the construction process, is likely to slow down the progress of the later period. Therefore, it is very necessary to keep the normal state of glue and room temperature of 5 degrees Celsius above zero. At the same time, almost all plastics contained chemical contamination, and they dried slowly and dispersed slowly, affecting indoor air quality.

Matters needing attention two: Use cement - add antifreeze or keep proper temperature to guarantee its strength

Tiling is an important project in the renovation of a house. Cement is used in tiling, and the application of cement is also particular. During winter construction, the cement that has been agitated may become ineffective once cooled. In addition, the more serious is that after the tiles have been attached, the sudden drop in temperature will seriously affect the strength of the cement, making the project quality suffer. Moreover, the low temperature will increase the solidification time of the cement, which is unprofitable in the construction period.

Therefore, Hu Zengguang said: “When using cement, be sure to pay attention to insulation, especially if it has been plastered and the temperature suddenly drops. It is most likely to affect the strength of cement.” He suggested that during winter construction, the best Add antifreeze to cement to ensure construction quality. When the villa's terrace is tiled, it must be covered with a layer of external insulation material to achieve double insurance.

Matters needing attention three: Uses the paint - the paint paint most avoids does not dry thoroughly that the brush two times will from the skin cracks

The paint has the highest moisture content and is therefore the most deeply affected by temperature. Paint brush three times, a layer of primer, two layers of paint, in the process, the most taboo on the first layer did not dry to start brushing a layer. In winter, when the temperature is low, the water evaporates slowly and the paint naturally slows down. At this time, it is very likely that in order to grab a period of time, a layer of paint will be applied if the upper layer is not dried.

Hu Zengguang said that once there is a phenomenon in which the upper layer is not dry enough to brush a layer, it is highly likely that after the heating, the temperature suddenly rises and the temperature difference between the front and rear is too large, resulting in wall peeling, blistering and even cracking. . “In order to avoid this phenomenon, pay attention to the room temperature when painting, and let the upper layer of paint pass through the film and then brush it again the second time. Do not influence the construction quality in order to grab the construction period.”

Matters needing attention four: Spread the floor - let the floor adapt to the indoor temperature to prevent "heat expansion and contraction" bring trouble

The basic knowledge of thermal expansion and contraction may be known to everyone, but may not be so much in the decoration, Hu Zengguang reminds you, "The floor must be taken into account when this problem. Most of the brand's warehouse is not heating equipment , then the wood will shrink in the inside, so when the floor is shipped home, it must be placed for a day or two, so that the wood is adapted to the temperature of the home, and then began to floor. This will not produce due to temperature difference Excessive floor deformation and cracking occur."

However, this is not enough. Because of the poor temperature in the four seasons, in order to prevent the phenomenon of thermal expansion in summer, when laying floors in the winter, care should be taken to keep the gaps larger to prevent possible “hot bulging” hazards in the summer.
