Repair errors

1. Uneventies on walls and ceiling
   Uneven walls and ceilings are a negligent attitude of developers and repairmen to their work. Therefore, it is important to level the surface before painting or gluing the wallpaper. On the bright painted walls will be visible all the shortcomings and irregularities of rough preparation. Therefore, before the final painting, it is worth checking the evenness of the walls under different lighting. If it is not possible to level the surface, then use different textured types of putty and painting. So you can successfully hide minor shortcomings.

2. Sloppy tile laying
   It often happens that in order to save time and materials, repairmen begin laying with a whole tile, and at the opposite wall, carelessly cut pieces remain. Before laying it is necessary to make a drawing with the layout of the tiles and pre-decompose it in place. If necessary, make a cut on both sides. There are special formulas and computer programs that allow you to calculate the required amount of tiles for a particular area. This is very helpful, especially if you need to keep the picture.

3. You can see the joints of floor coverings and wallpaper.
   The joints should go strictly under the doorway. Otherwise, the floor covering of the corridor will be visible from the kitchen, for example. This can be avoided by specifying in advance how the doors will open. It is also worth paying special attention to wallpaper, because visible joints are very cheap room.

4. Inconvenient location of sockets and switches
   People often do repairs first and then think about furniture. This is a big mistake, because then you have to buy extension cords and other devices. Even if for personal reasons you fill the room with furniture gradually, it is worth making a clear plan for the arrangement of furniture and equipment before repair.

5. The wrong color scheme
   Often the color of the paint on the wall does not look as expected. Therefore, experts advise to test the paint not on a white background, but on a slightly grayish (such as a wall).

6. Sloppy plinth joints
   Who seems to pay attention to such a small thing as a plinth? But in the finished room gaps and careless joints of boards and casings are strongly striking. To make the joint look neat, the plinth and the casing must be the same thickness. The best option is 45-70 mm.

7. Curtains highlight windowsill or battery
   Sometimes, the cornice is located too close to the window and the curtains literally lie on the windowsill or battery or emphasize all the bulges. Therefore, the cornice should be chosen when everything is ready.
