If the decoration is selected in January or February, it is generally necessary to suspend work during the Spring Festival. In order to allow the holiday to be successfully resumed, the decoration of this period should pay attention to the following points: thorough construction details, early procurement of materials, a reasonable duration, and a reasonable duration.
The suspension of work during the Spring Festival is unavoidable. How to make this time stop reasonably, and it can be started in time after the Spring Festival. The owner and the construction party need to refine the date of suspension and start of construction as early as possible during the signing of the renovation contract, and in the supplementary clause. It is agreed that the liability for breach of contract shall be delayed.

Do not blindly progress
Many owners are afraid that the work stoppages will cause problems. They will repeatedly urge construction workers to speed up their progress and strive for early completion. In fact, this is very undesirable, because the construction progress and processes should be strictly in accordance with the project's process requirements, such as approved putty, paving tiles, waterproofing, etc. must allow enough drying time, otherwise it is prone to problems.
Detailed construction details
In the pre-holiday project construction, we must pay special attention to some operational details to prepare for the downtime. For example, woodworking should pay attention to leaving seams: when laying solid wood floors, 2mm of expansion joints must be left at the seams; when making furniture, a 1mm seam must be left. These are to prevent the material from expanding when the heat of the festival gets hot and causing it to dangle. In addition, the plaster line should be kept at a distance of 5 mm from the top surface and the wall surface to avoid cracking of the plaster line. Gypsum powder and latex can be used to adjust the gap.
Material procurement early orders
Many homeowners in the renovation will purchase some of their own materials, such as sanitary ware, lamps and so on. However, during the more than one month before the Spring Festival, it is the time when everyone is busy. The owner's procurement plan is often difficult to complete due to various reasons, directly affecting the post-holiday construction progress. It is recommended that the owner do a good job in the procurement plan before the holiday season, and even order the goods early, so that the goods will be shipped before the holiday or the first delivery after the holiday.
Site material protection
Before the workers who have stopped work during the Spring Festival leave the site, they must do a good job of protecting finished products and semi-finished products. For example, on-site woodworking products must be primed to prevent dry cracking during downtime. Second, during work stoppages, attention must be paid to maintaining the temperature at the construction site and avoiding low temperatures. Because at this time, if the room temperature is too low, it is easy to cause damage to those items that are sensitive to temperature but cannot take protective measures. Finally, when all personnel leave the site, the main valves for water, electricity and gas are closed to prevent accidents.
More ventilation during work stoppages
During the shutdown period, if the owner has time, he can go to the construction site and be ventilated. However, the outdoor temperature in winter is low, and latex paint walls that have not dried out after decoration are easily frozen, making the walls easily discolored after opening. Therefore, it is best to open the window for ventilation in the warm afternoon. The ventilation time should not be too long to prevent the wall near the window sill from being frozen and discolored.
