Did you know that there are CONSTRUCTION MISTAKES THAT CANNOT BE FIXED OR ARE VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX? There are mistakes that I feel embarrassed to tell someone that there is no solution. That is why CONSTRUCTION TIPS, DECORATION TIPS are not only useful for having a beautiful house, but also to protect you from losses. Here I have separated 10 CONSTRUCTION MISTAKES THAT CANNOT BE FIXED OR ARE VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX, let's go to the items: ITEM 1 - GLUING THE COVERING WITHOUT WATERPROOFING - It is very common in bathrooms for people to glue the flooring or covering to the wall and only later discover that it was necessary to waterproof the plaster and floor. Without waterproofing, water can pass through the grout and ruin what is on the other side of the wall, be it a carpentry, or if it passes through the floor, it can ruin the lining on the floor below. If you have already glued the covering, unfortunately there is not much you can do; ITEM 2 – USING INADEQUATE ROOFING AND LINING – Many simple houses use some tiles that are not good at thermal insulation, such as FIBER CEMENT TILES AND METAL TILES, PVC TILES, and to make matters worse, if it is a house without a slab, there are those who use a PVC LINING, but it does not have a good function of insulating heat, that is, you spend money without getting any results, the house gets hot or cold. The ideal would be to use a ceramic tile or sandwich tile, and use a plaster lining, plasterboard with mineral wool on top or EPS lining; ITEM 3 – REMOVING FLOORING – People often want to remove a floor without breaking it and reuse it in the construction, either because they no longer have that flooring, they don’t have a reserve for possible replacements or they have flooring from another batch with a different shade, etc. However, it is not always possible to remove the entire flooring without breaking it, so be prepared in case you are unable to use this material; ITEM 4 – WRONG DIMENSIONS FOR A SPACE – There is no point in trying to do magic, it is not always possible to build a staircase, a double bed where there is no circulation on both sides, a bathtub in a small bathroom, a large cooktop on a very narrow countertop, etc. Plan ahead so you don’t regret it; ITEM 5 – RISING DAMP – The kind that rises up through your wall due to lack of waterproofing in the foundation. If you didn’t waterproof it, now it is very complicated to solve, it makes a mess and it is expensive. Imagine a finished house having to be renovated? ITEM 6 – LEAKS – Leaks occur for simple and easy-to-solve reasons, such as a clogged gutter, a loose or dislodged tile, a broken tile, etc. However, the problem may be due to the incorrect slope of the roof, and if this is the case, nothing will solve your leak until you adjust the correct slope of the tiles to ensure a good fit. Tie them down if there are strong winds where you live; ITEM 7 – EFFLORESCENCE OR SALT – This is a white stain that runs down your wall due to the presence of soluble salts in the mortar, plaster, plastering, etc. This is a very annoying problem to solve, because if you already have a glued coating, you should know that the problem is behind it. Therefore, the only way to actually solve it is to break it, but on painted walls it is possible to peel it off and waterproof it; ITEM 8 – REMOVING AN ALREADY INSTALLED COUNTER – If the counter was installed only supported by the French bracket or carpentry, this is easier, however, in Brazil, countertops are often installed embedded in the wall 2 to 3 cm and glued with mortar, in which case removal is much more complex and if it is glued with PU glue, then it is even more complicated and it is common to lose this stone, so take a good look at the location and height at which you want your countertop; ITEM 9 – OVERLOADING YOUR HOUSE – When someone wants to expand their construction, they should know if the house was designed for this expansion, such as a terrace, a balcony, a swimming pool on the second floor, etc., because this overload can generate many structural problems in your house and you will have to spend much more to make structural reinforcement, resolve cracks or even subsidence problems; ITEM 10 – HOUSE WITHOUT NATURAL VENTILATION – Rooms without windows can be solved with a winter garden, ventilation tower, open elements, VMC and skylights, we can also just bring natural light with an ecological slab, sunlight tunnel, etc.; Here are the videos mentioned: TYPES OF GROUT: • GROUT - TYPES OF GROUT AND HOW TO CHOOSE...
