Hardcover room issue is mandatory Mandatory national standard is expected to be introduced during the year

"Poisonous floor", poor quality door paint, wall seepage, and quality problems in the hardcover room. Recently, relevant persons from the China Building Decoration Association disclosed that the mandatory national standards for the quality of new home decoration will be introduced during the year, which is expected to change the current situation in which there is no uniform standard for the quality supervision of “exquisite housing”.

Only one year's housekeeping can not be re-decorated by the owner. In May 2010, Mr. Qiu bought a 64-square-meter apartment with fine decoration in Wuchang as a wedding room. In February of last year, he looked forward to collecting the house. However, a series of problems made him very depressed. “The air-conditioning and wall-connecting pipes are not sealed. Rats can easily climb in; they promised a branded bathroom. Some were not honored; there was a pungent odor in the house; the floor-to-ceiling windows had no guard rails installed..."

Mr. Qiu immediately stated that he could not collect the room. He wrote a detailed “receipt of house receipts” and asked the responsible person of the project to deal with it. As a result, the other party had been holding back and refused to solve it. “Every time they say that they will refurbish as soon as possible. In the past two months, I have not looked for more than ten times and have not resolved it."

After nearly six months of delay, in July of last year, Mr. Qiu was eager to check in because of his marriage. Since his arrival, he has found that the problem of the house is far more than this. When the storm began, the family still leaked water. “A minor repair does not solve the problem.” In desperation, Mr. Qiu had to be demolished and renovated.

The new national standard introduced the acceptance check for households during the year. “At present, the hardcover houses in Wuhan account for less than 10% of the total home decoration. However, according to the municipal government's plan, the proportion during the “12th Five-Year Plan” period will rise to 30%, and the hardcover room is the trend of the times. "Guang Wei, Secretary-General of the Wuhan Architectural Decoration Association, said that a series of problems that have arisen have arisen from the fact that there is no uniform standard for hardcover rooms in China.

However, there is good news. According to the China Building and Decoration Association, the mandatory national standards for the quality of new home decoration are expected to be introduced during the year.

The standard stipulates that two phases will be involved in hardcover acceptance. First, after the completion of the main project and before the fitment company enters the market, the acceptance level at the handover level will be checked to ensure the connection between the decoration base and the parts. The second stage of acceptance is the final acceptance of the hardcover project.

In addition, the standard provides that the inspection and acceptance of the hardcover will be carried out on a household-by-house basis, and the relevant standards will be more detailed. Specific details have been stipulated in the fine-decorated wall, floor, waterproof, doors and windows and other sub-items. In particular, kitchen and toilet hardcover standards have also been specifically stipulated.

The new national standard stipulates that the hardcover acceptance will be carried out on a household basis.
