What are the main points of second-hand housing renovation?

The second-hand house decoration is more complicated than the new house decoration, especially the water circuit system of some second-hand houses is relatively old, unable to meet the modern people's living needs. Unlike the fascinating appearance of water and electricity after the house decoration, the internal engineering such as water circuit is hidden in the house. Corner, therefore, water circuit transformation has become the focus of second-hand housing and one of the most expensive projects. Then what are the key points of second-hand house decoration, the following small series will tell you.

First, the "concealed project" is reopened

At present, a large part of the quality problems in home decoration are caused by improper construction of “concealed works”. The “concealed project” is the part of the work process sequence that is completed by the next process and will be covered by the next one and cannot be inspected. Therefore, when the second-hand house is renovated, pay special attention to the “concealed project”. For example, whether the pipes, lines, and equipment of various facilities such as water supply, air conditioning, and ventilation in the ceiling have been sealed and tested for electrical insulation and resistance, whether the connection is firm, whether the joints meet the requirements, and whether the flammable materials have been fire resistant. Combustion treatment, etc. are all within the scope of “concealed works” and cannot be inspected after the first installation. Professionals suggest that when renovating old houses, reopening these parts is a good opportunity to eliminate hidden dangers. Owners must strictly check and remove the “hidden works” left over from the past.

1, waterproof engineering must check

Before the second-hand house is renovated, the toilet and kitchen should be tested for water storage and leak testing for 24 hours to 48 hours. Check the original waterproofing work. If there is no water leakage, it proves that the waterproofing treatment is done well; if there is water leakage The phenomenon must be re-waterproofed. After the waterproof treatment, wait until the ground is completely dry, then lay the tiles and carry out the overall decoration. Moreover, when the toilet is changed to sit in the toilet, the waterproof treatment of the position of the toilet drain must be done. When designing and decorating the top of the toilet, attention should be paid to the disassembly and assembly, which is conducive to future inspection and maintenance.

2, the aging water pipe must be replaced

The original water pipelines of second-hand houses often have many unreasonable layouts. During the renovation, the original waterways must be thoroughly inspected to see if they are rusted or aged. If the original pipeline uses a galvanized pipe that has been eliminated, it must be replaced with a copper pipe, an aluminum-plastic composite pipe or a PP-R pipe during construction. For example, before installing the bathroom, first block the floor drain, put about 5 cm deep water for testing, if it leaks, you must redo the waterproof work. At the same time, it should be noted that no dead ends can be left after construction.

3, the circuit must be transformed

Second-hand houses generally have simple circuit distribution, aging wires, illegal wiring, etc., which can no longer meet the needs of modern households, so they must be completely rebuilt and re-routed during renovation. If the original line is found to be an aluminum wire, it must be replaced with a copper wire of 2.5 square millimeters. For the installation of high-power electrical appliances such as air conditioners, a 4 mm square section of the line should be provided separately, and PVC insulated retaining wire must be used when embedding.

Second, the "face" transformation is essential

During the renovation, the renovation of the wall, floor and ceiling of the second-hand house is the most easily overlooked. It is recommended that professionals should conduct on-the-spot investigations on the house to see if there is any obvious crack, whether it is flat, whether it is falling off or sand. If these conditions exist, repairs must be carried out, including the removal of wall oil, powdered wall paint, etc., and the repair of the base layer, cracks and holes with cement mortar. In addition, after repairing, a primer should be applied to cover it to make the base layer firm. Secondly, it can prevent the base layer from changing due to efflorescence and moisture, and then use a scaled emulsion paint to finish. During the construction, attention should be paid to the cleanliness of the site air, and the dust protection should be done. The tools must be free of debris.

Third, the door and window update carefully considered

Aging of doors and windows is also a prominent problem in second-hand houses, but if the material is sturdy and the style is satisfactory, it can be renewed as long as it is repainted. However, if the wooden doors and windows are peeled and deformed, it means that the characteristics of the wood itself have changed, so it must be replaced. In addition, the paint film on the surface of steel doors and windows is detached, and the main body is rusted or cracked. In addition to being unsafe, it is difficult to restore the original shape. In order not to affect the use effect, it is recommended to remove the redo.

Many different species of wood are fabricated into Wood Flooring in two primary forms: plank and parquet. Hardwoods are typically much more durable than softwoods. Reclaimed lumber has a unique appearance and is used in green building. Engineered hardwood has a thin solid wood layer on top with a composite core. It can be a less expensive option than buying hardwood.
