What Are The Common Types Of Decoration Material Price Lists?

What are the common types of decoration material price lists?

Basic price for floor and wall

When the renovation begins, the first thing to do is to lay the groundwork. There are many types of materials used on the floor, and the range of options is quite wide. Among them, plastic flooring is the cheapest, only 20 to 30 yuan per square meter. If you are pursuing the feeling of stepping on your feet, then laminate flooring is the most cost-effective, with its price ranging from 70 yuan to 200 yuan.

If you want a more high-end texture, multi-layer solid wood flooring or pure solid wood flooring would be a good choice. The starting price of pure solid wood flooring must be more than 250 yuan, or even higher. In terms of ceramic tiles, the grade of ceramic tiles used in the living room varies significantly, ranging from a few dozen yuan to nearly three hundred yuan. Since the ceramic tiles used in kitchens and bathrooms have relatively high moisture-proof requirements, their price range is mainly in the range of ten to three hundred yuan. Just choose a mid-range one.

Accessories and ceiling details

That is to say, in addition to the main materials, auxiliary materials such as cement and sand cannot be saved. Among them, the price of cement per ton is about 300 yuan, while the price of sand is more than 100 yuan per cubic meter. In addition, although the price of caulking agent and putty powder is not high, they are used in large quantities, so the overall price is not low. Just like putty powder, the price is about 70 or 80 yuan per bag of 20 kilograms. This cost must be calculated carefully.

The materials used at the top of the floor will have a direct impact on the height of the space and the overall aesthetics. Plastic steel gussets are relatively cheap, but their service life is relatively short. Aluminum gussets are waterproof and durable, and are suitable for kitchens and bathrooms. Gypsum boards are flexible in terms of shape and are more suitable for the living room area. The labor cost of painting the wall plus the material cost is about 20 to 30 yuan per square meter. Wallpapers are divided according to grade, and the price ranges from more than ten yuan to several hundred yuan. Choosing wallpapers from well-known brands will be more environmentally friendly.

Door and window hardware and customization

There are obvious price differences between entry doors and interior doors, and solid wood composite doors range in price from 700 to 2,500. Glass sliding doors or swing doors are often used in kitchens and bathrooms, but their budgets must be controlled within 2,000 yuan. Anti-theft windows are calculated based on area. Two to three hundred yuan per square meter is common. Once these hidden projects are completed, it is difficult to make changes. You must be careful when selecting materials.

There are low-end hinge handles that cost tens of yuan, and there are also high-end ones that can cost thousands. Although the hardware capacity is small, it determines the service life. Door locks, hinges, and slide rails all have to be of good quality. Customized cabinets and wardrobes also occupy a large proportion of the cost. The boards are divided into high, medium, and low grades, and their prices range from a few hundred yuan per square meter to thousands of yuan. It is recommended to look for well-known brands such as Tubaobao and Moganshan, so that after-sales service can be more guaranteed.

Key points of hydropower transformation

Don't save money. Water and electricity are hidden projects. PPR water pipes cost more than ten or twenty yuan per meter. Wires are calculated on a hundred-meter basis, which can cost one hundred to four hundred yuan. The quality of electrical accessories such as circuit breakers and socket panels is more stable from big brands such as Bull and Schneider. Although the unit price is only a few yuan to dozens of yuan, the total amount of the whole house is not small.

In the field of sanitary ware, the price of a toilet is in the range of more than 600 to 1,500, and a shower set of reasonably good quality can be purchased for 400 to 500. Faucets and bathroom cabinets are also urgently needed items, and the budget should be within two to three thousand. There are many types of lamps to choose from. Common ceiling lamps cost one or two hundred, while high-end crystal lamps cost more than a thousand. Downlights and wall lights can be configured according to actual needs, and there is no need to stack them excessively.

Brand comparison and pitfall avoidance

There are many brands on the market. Mona Lisa and Dongpeng Ceramics have relatively good reputations, while Shengxiang Flooring is an old brand. Choosing Dulux or Nippon Paint for paint will make you feel more at ease. For bathroom products, priority is given to TOTO, Kohler, and Wrigley, whose product quality control is stable. Electrician brands like Opple and NVC Lighting have soft light and can protect your eyes. Although choosing a big brand is more expensive, it can avoid trouble in later maintenance.

Don't just look at the advertisement, be sure to look at the actual parameters. Just like the floor, it depends on the number of wear-resistant revolutions. For ceramic tiles, you need to pay attention to the water absorption rate. For electric wires, you need to check the purity of the copper core, and for water pipes, you need to know the wall thickness. Many low-price traps lie in cutting corners and cutting out materials. It may seem that the price given is very low, but in fact there are quite a lot of hidden dangers. It is recommended to go to a physical store to touch the samples and compare the feel before placing an order. Don’t just listen to the salesman’s lies.

Budget allocation recommendations

Before starting the renovation, be sure to carefully prepare a budget sheet and list the estimated cost of each material in detail. Among them, the floor and walls account for a larger proportion, accounting for about 40%. Hydropower transformation accounts for 20% of the total. Furniture, appliances and soft furnishings take up the rest. In addition, a 10% reserve fund should be reserved to deal with sudden increases. In this way, you can have a clearer bottom line in your mind and avoid overspending too much.

Half-package and full-package have their own advantages and disadvantages. Half-package requires you to buy the main materials yourself. Although it is tiring, it has strong controllability and can save an objective amount of money. Full-package saves worry at the same time, but it is very easy to be scammed, and the material brand is opaque. You can give the construction company a half-package suggestion, go to the market for the main materials yourself to compare prices, visit several building materials markets, and compare shopping so that you will not suffer a loss, and you can decorate a house that is both cost-effective and satisfactory.
