Here's how to renovate your house after the Autumnal Equinox!

End of Heat (2023.8.23)

The Beginning of Autumn, or "End of Heat," signifies the departure of the sweltering heat. At this time, the hottest period of summer (the "Dog Days") has passed or is nearing its end, and from the Beginning of Autumn onwards, the trend of gradually decreasing temperatures becomes more pronounced. In this increasingly cool weather, the peak season for home renovations, September and October, arrives once again.

Next, let's follow Zhoubao's lead and see why homeowners choose to renovate during this season.

Based on past renovation experience, we have summarized the following benefits of renovating after the Beginning of Autumn:

01. Convenient and quick construction

With the sweltering summer over and the weather gradually cooling down, construction progress will naturally become more efficient. Construction schedules will no longer be affected by heat, and workers will be less impacted by the weather, significantly reducing labor costs.

02. Good ventilation during renovation

Escape the stuffiness of air-conditioned rooms in summer; renovations done after the Autumnal Equinox make opening windows for ventilation much easier. People coming and going create airflow within the room, effectively removing toxic gases trapped in materials and shortening the airing-out period.

03. Humidity decreases

After the Autumnal Equinox, the weather becomes dry, and wood and boards are less likely to become damp. At this time, the moisture content of the wood is relatively low, so the wood is less prone to cracking and deformation compared to other seasons, and it is also more conducive to the surface processing of the boards.

04. Plaster-based materials are not easily damaged.

Plaster materials are hygroscopic, and in summer, excessive moisture can affect their hardness and increase their breakage rate. After the end of summer, their breakage rate is greatly reduced.

05. Wallpaper is not easily damaged by moisture.

Wallpaper will mold if it gets damp, but the weather in autumn is relatively dry, so the wallpaper will dry quickly after it is applied and set. Even if it is exposed to humid air, there is no need to worry too much after it is set.

06. Varnish and latex paint application is more delicate.

When applying wood varnish or wall latex paint after the Autumnal Equinox, the mild climate, without strong winds or continuous rain, allows the paint to dry naturally. Furthermore, the lack of dust and pollutants in the air results in a smoother, more refined finish and a more outstanding effect.

07. Tile installation is tight.

If it's rainy or the temperature is too low when laying tiles, the moisture won't evaporate quickly, which will affect the tiling result. However, in the stable autumn climate, the dryness allows the moisture in the tiles to evaporate rapidly, resulting in a tighter and more secure tiling.

08. Many merchant discounts and promotions

The period following the Autumnal Equinox includes the National Day Golden Week holiday. Many businesses will launch various promotional activities during the National Day holiday in order to meet their year-end targets. Homeowners who choose to renovate after the Autumnal Equinox can save a lot on material costs.
