Consumer Association reminds home decoration to guard against five traps

A few days ago, China Consumers Association issued a consumer reminder to remind you that including design, contract, prepayment, purchase, quality, etc., the decoration market is “overwhelming” and consumers must be vigilant.

China Consumers Association pointed out that the five "traps" of home decoration are mostly in the form of loops:

Design trap

Many home improvement companies will say "design free" when they receive you, but if you are not satisfied with the design or are not satisfied with the construction cost, if you want to change the construction of a company, it will ask you for an expensive design fee. .

Contract trap

Mainly in the fictitious subject qualifications, qualifications, as well as in the use of materials, process requirements, construction deadlines, acceptance methods, quality warranty, liability for breach of contract, dispute resolution, etc., for the future to escape responsibility for the foreshadowing.

Advance payment trap

After the contract is signed, some construction parties will ask you to prepay 30% to 40% of the preparation and entry fees. A few salesmen and even the boss will use this opportunity to “shoulders” and take the money.

Purchase trap

If it is self-purchased material, a few construction parties will receive a rebate by introducing you to purchase materials. Others will open a "big prescription", which means that the actual needs of your home decoration are not purchased, and the more construction parties will take it away. If it is a contractor, the other party will make a fuss about the quantity of materials used and the brand of materials used.

Quality trap

The traps in this area are mainly manifested in hidden projects, hydropower, doors and windows, etc. As long as there are quality problems in these places, it is often impossible to solve the problem after repeated rework. In the end, it can only be lost.

China Consumers Association reminds consumers that when deciding on home decoration, it is important to grasp the three elements: to sign a contract, if the economic conditions permit, it is best to ask a professional lawyer to help check; hire the insider to be the supervisor; retain the evidence to protect the rights.
