自建房瓷砖预算方案

Breaking down costs

OK, let’s see. Calculating intricate expenses for an 80m^2 rural house in the Pearl River Delta, including tiling for floors and bathrooms, and aiming to keep the total under 55,000 RMB.

Piecing together details

Mapping out 2 buildings, each with 3.5 floors, totaling 80m^2. Tiling all first-floor floors and walls, specific second and third-floor floors, and six bathrooms' walls. Progressing steadily.

Clarifying dimensions

Gathering info on kitchen and staircase tiling, waterproofing, and cost control under 55,000 RMB. Ensuring the final plan aligns with this detailed budget and quality criteria for 2024.

Gathering materials

I’m noting details on cement, sand, adhesive, and waterproofing materials for a comprehensive estimate. The floor tiles total 240m^2, including all areas specified.

Confirming specifics

Assuming the 80m^2 per floor includes the bathrooms, so no double counting. This makes me think about efficient cost analysis and avoiding redundant estimates for the tiling area.

Mapping bathroom walls

Approximate wall areas per bathroom at 143 m^2, translating to around 860 m^2 for six bathrooms. This simplifies the estimation process, aiding in our thorough evaluation.

Piecing together dimensions

Adding 5% waste yields 150 m^2. Assuming 20 m^2 for each kitchen, total wall area approximation is 860 m^2 for bathrooms and 40 m^2 for kitchens, totaling 900 m^2.

Assessing tile areas

I’m combining 1st floor living and kitchen walls with bathroom walls on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Incorporating 5% waste, this totals approximately 360 m^2.

Piecing together details

I’m integrating the first floor's 200 m^2 with additional bathrooms on the second and third floors, totaling four, for a more comprehensive tile estimate.

Piecing together flooring

Adding up the first, second, and third floor tiles, plus the fourth half floor, brings the total to about 315 m^2, reflecting a refinement in the measurement approach.

Piecing together stairs

Considering 2 flights per building, assuming 16 steps per flight, totaling 64 steps. I'm mapping out how to measure and tile each step for accuracy.

Mapping out area

Adding the tiles for floors and stairs, including a 5% waste cushion, totals roughly 284 m^2, considering the potential use of smaller or equal tiles for the staircase.

Crunching the numbers

I've calculated the total wall tile area as around 311 m^2, including 2 bathrooms on each of the second and third floors, plus the 1st floor.

Crunching numbers

I’m estimating the cost of floor tiles at 17,760 RMB for 444 tiles. Now, I’m calculating the wall tile requirements, assuming a maximum of 311 m^2 and 0.32 m^2 coverage per tile.

Assessing material needs

Taking a closer look at the tile and adhesive requirements for the project, estimating around 5,000 RMB for materials combined with labor costs to keep within the budget of 55,000 RMB.

Mapping cement use

I'm piecing together an estimate of 12-15 kg of cement per m^2 for floor tiles, adjusting for wall tiles, to ensure all areas are efficiently covered.

Estimating materials

I'm figuring out 120 bags of cement at 25 RMB each, totaling 3,000 RMB. For sand, 24 cubic meters at 100 RMB each, costing around 2,400 RMB.

Weighing options

I'm thinking through the benefits of tile adhesive over traditional methods to simplify installation and reduce material use. A combined approach should help manage the budget effectively.

Pulling together costs

Estimating grout at 5 RMB/m^2 for 595 m^2, edging strips at 1,200 RMB for 200 meters, and waterproofing paint for 210 m^2 of 1st floor and bathroom areas.

Estimating costs

Calculating the costs of threshold stones (10 at 100 RMB each) and labor for tiling. Considering these costs to ensure the budget stays manageable.

Balancing costs

I'm thinking about labor rates for floor and wall tiling, totaling 44,760 RMB, which could exceed the budget. We'll need to find ways to reduce or redistribute these expenses.

Pondering ways to cut costs

I'm strategizing cheaper labor rates and tile options to stay within a 55k budget. Considering options like local labor or less expensive tiles to find a balanced approach.

Finalizing costs

I explored a 25 RMB floor tile and 10 RMB wall tile, aiming to trim the labor costs to stay within budget. Now, I’m integrating these expenses with additional materials.

Streamlining materials

I'm aiming to decrease overall costs to stay under 55k. Considering simpler grout for living areas and epoxy for bathrooms only, while planning detailed cost tables for precision.

Balancing expenses

I'm working through using cost-effective tiles and simplifying labor rates, while considering partial epoxy. This approach aims to align costs with the project needs and budget constraints.

Calculating total expenses

Tallying floor and wall tile costs, labor, and other materials, aiming to stay below the 55k budget. Considering partial epoxy grout for bathrooms to manage expenses effectively.

Revisiting material choices

Educating on using cement for installation and eliminating tile adhesive to bring total expenses to 55k or less for the bathroom and kitchen.

Optimizing cost efficiency

By replacing epoxy with normal grout and revising labor rates, the total construction expenses are now under 55k, achieving a balanced cost-efficiency.
