3 non-obvious signs of a bad renovation: no matter how much money is spent, you will have to redo it

04.03.2024 21:51

Renovations force apartment owners to be in constant tension, because they need to keep in mind many details: where to place sockets in the room, when to order furniture for the kitchen, how many days it will take to deliver tiles, etc.

To protect the brain from overload, the body can "cleanse" the memory, deleting information it considers unnecessary. As a result, by the end of the renovation, you may find that much has been missed.

Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino listed the signs that may indicate poor quality repairs.

Poorly laid communications

Even if your interior is designed in an industrial or loft style, open wiring can ruin it. Cables, pipes and air conditioner ducts should be hidden so that they do not disturb the harmony of the interior.

Of course, hidden installation requires additional costs and time, but saving on the installation of engineering systems can lead to unpleasant consequences.

Errors in window installation

The quality of window installation in an apartment is of great importance. It affects not only the appearance of the interior and the general atmosphere in the house, but also the level of comfort. If after installing a window a skewed frame is found, problems with the sashes, condensation on the glass, drafts - it means the work was done poorly.

Possible causes include incorrect installation of the frame or window sill, unadjusted fittings, and a leaky mounting seam. In addition, failure to comply with window installation technology may cause mold to appear.

Incorrectly chosen color scheme

Often, the choice of color for the interior is not given due attention and as a result, the color does not meet expectations. To avoid this, colorists recommend choosing a shade on unprepared gray walls. This is due to the fact that any color on a white background seems brighter, and on a gray background the tone will be more restrained.

It is important not to get lost among the huge variety of shades and choose the right color palette. To do this, you can use the rule of three colors: choose three main tones and use them in different elements of the interior. The main color should occupy 60% of the space, the supporting color - 30%, the accent color - 10%.
