Designer scam or bred designers of its customers
Good afternoon dear friends!
As in any sector (including construction, design and interior decor) have as professionals and people seeking to make a quick. Repair - cheap, fast and accurately is almost impossible to do... And there are plenty of reasons! Starting from the design features of the premises - ending with the financial capabilities and the needs of the customer.
And if you are handling a construction company or a design studio promise "golden mountains" for "small money" - think about it! There is a high probability that you've come to this pseudo-professionals. After all, we should not forget that in the construction and repair sphere spinning a lot of money, and it means that the mass of the mountain-builders and "mega" Designers want to earn it. That is to say, to sell their more expensive services, but not much to bother with this. That's why I want to elaborate on how the pseudo-designers make their clients, and they do not even realize.
Good designers offer adequate prices the average market price range for each type of works and services.
1."Free cheese is only in a mousetrap". Often design offices organize events, which promise huge discounts. Rarely a man can stand against the possibility of a couple of pretty save hard cash. As a result - to pay a certain amount of shares, signed a contract and in return received a finished design project. Everything is nicely done, and the images that you see only in gloss. Come to life, live and be happy.
Only now realize such a project is not always possible. The reasons can be mass - the design features of the apartment, too expensive decoration materials, furniture, etc. Or, if there is no normal design project and competent drawings (obmerochny plan; electrical plan, sanitary ware; sweep over the walls ...), and the workers can not simply banal to make it a reality. And all the finishing touches, alterations in the repair process always pull in an increase in budget.
2.Trust but check. I am sure that all know this saying! Therefore, blindly trust the designer the choice of finishing materials, components or furniture and not to control their purchases, of course, is not necessary. As if the designer appeared fixersThen invariably decide to cash in on this, and on the acquisition of all of the above do not receive bonuses from the bad points of sale at your expense. Which sometimes can reach up to 10 and sometimes even 30% of the total order.
It would be better to engage and make purchases together. Then design a "rollback", which he planned to catch can be yours (I want to mention good) discount.
3."Can all». Let's say you like a design project, and you signed it. It remained for its implementation. Typically, the designer is the entire project from start to finish, including personally invites builders and supervise their work. So if you got a pseudo-designer, it always hire a "professional", for example from sunny Tashkent, and you will pay for their work, as the real experts from Hamburg. Of course, the difference will settle in the pocket of the designer.
And in order to avoid such cases, at least, make a contract, which will be spelled out insurance claims and warranty.
P.S. On many exchanges can always find a designer. Just remember - by doing so, you will automatically enter into the "at risk". This means that the risk "to feed breakfast," artist or even lose money. BUT, if you decide to take this step, then pay attention to such nuances:
–try not to make any advances;
–check portfolio. It might just be stolen;
–call or email to former clients of the designer. Let share their impressions about working with him.
Have a good interior designers and less "the high road"!
