The season decoration is focused on hydropower, waterproof and woodwork

Autumn is the prime season for home renovations, and the process can be time-consuming and complex. It's common for homeowners to face challenges while managing the project, especially when working with contractors. Industry experts recommend that for key renovation projects, it’s crucial to supervise the work closely and conduct regular site inspections—especially focusing on areas where shortcuts are more likely, such as plumbing, waterproofing, and woodworking. Being vigilant helps ensure the quality of the work isn’t compromised by the workers. **Engineering Supervision** **Plumbing** Plumbing issues are among the most frequent problems that arise after a renovation. Before any water or electrical work begins, it’s essential for homeowners to communicate with their designers or renovation company. The designer should create a detailed layout of the water and electrical systems, including the placement of outlets and pipes. After the renovation is complete, there may be changes in the layout, so it’s important to have an updated map for future maintenance. Tip: With the dry weather in autumn, on-site safety becomes even more critical. Workers from reputable companies are not allowed to live on-site or cook, boil water, or smoke there. While this issue is rare in ordinary homes, it’s more common in villa renovations. Homeowners should frequently visit the site to observe the construction progress. Pay attention to the condition of the bathroom and kitchen, how materials are stored, and whether waste is being removed daily. A well-managed site usually indicates better quality and safer work practices. **Waterproofing** **Ensure Proper Waterproof Testing Time** One of the most overlooked parts of the renovation is waterproofing, particularly in bathrooms. The final waterproof test should be conducted 12 hours after the last coat of waterproofing material has been applied, once it has fully bonded with the base layer. During the test, seal the drain and door, fill the bathroom floor with water up to 3-5 cm, and mark the level. If there’s no noticeable drop in the water level within 24 hours, and the ceiling of the apartment below shows no signs of leakage, the waterproofing is considered acceptable. For added security, some families opt for a 48-hour test. If the test fails, the entire waterproofing job must be redone and re-inspected. Tip: Before applying waterproof coating, make sure the floor is properly leveled with cement. Otherwise, uneven surfaces can lead to thin spots in the coating, causing leaks. Also, ensure that the coating reaches the required height on the walls, and that corners and joints are fully covered without gaps. **Woodwork** **Control Moisture Content and Enhance On-Site Protection** Most wood products used in home decoration are factory-made and transported to the site. However, the moisture content and installation process still require close attention. Once the wood panels arrive at the site, they should be left to acclimate for a few days before installation. Installing them immediately could cause warping or cracking due to temperature differences. When visiting the site, check not only the timing of the installation but also the protection of the wood products. After installation, apply a protective layer of paint to maintain moisture levels and prevent damage. Tip: Autumn brings frequent temperature changes, which can cause wood to shrink and crack. If this happens, repairs should be done in spring when the temperature stabilizes. This allows the wood to settle and prevents further issues. **Tips** **Reasonable Time Management** For an 80–100 square meter house, the actual construction period should take about two months. Starting in September and October, finishing by November and December would mean moving into winter, which can complicate window installations and cause discomfort. The saying “spring and autumn are ideal times for renovation” refers to the dry and mild weather, which speeds up the drying of paints and adhesives. It’s advisable to start early, as furniture often hits the market after the fall season, making it a more logical time to plan your renovation. **Avoid Directly Hiring a Construction Team** Some homeowners see neighbors’ renovations and think the workers are good. However, industry insiders warn against directly hiring a team without going through a company. This approach can lead to hidden costs and poor after-sales service. Without a company’s support, you may end up paying more for rework later. **Large Companies Should Detail Their Contracts** Even with a well-known company, it’s wise to review the contract carefully. A clear contract ensures quality and protects your rights. Include details about safety, worker conditions, and unexpected issues to define responsibilities clearly. **Small Companies and Payment Methods** If budget is tight, consider smaller companies or teams. You can protect yourself by controlling the payment method. A recommended structure is 30% upfront, 30% after plumbing inspection, 30% after tiling, and 10% upon completion. This method is practical and widely accepted. **Choose Qualified Workers Yourself** Whether you go with a large company, small firm, or direct team, selecting skilled workers is vital. Communicate well with the foreman and inspect other sites to evaluate the quality of workers. Due to high demand, some workers may be delayed, so it’s best to plan ahead. **Renovation Guide:** An Xiaochun, Director of Beijing Jinchao Design & Decoration Co., Ltd.
