At the meeting, the eight major industry associations exposed themselves as ugly, exposed problems existing in the industry and "unspoken rules", and made commitments on how to improve in the future.

After receiving the promise, Ms. Li signed a contract with the decoration company and paid a deposit of 2,000 yuan.

The home improvement industry is an industry closely related to people's livelihood. Due to the low entry threshold of the industry, the education level and professional skills of the employees are generally low, and the lack of mandatory government management, it is difficult to complain about home improvement and solve problems. According to the statistics of home improvement complaints accepted by the Association in 2010, home improvement consumption disputes are mainly divided into economic disputes, after-sales services, and construction quality. Among them, economic disputes include the signing of contracts, budget prices, material brands, construction period guarantees, and reasonable price-performance ratios; construction quality mainly focuses on concealed works, water circuit renovation, waterproofing, etc .; after-sales service involves repair methods, whether repair time is timely, etc. . Home improvement companies are uneven, corporate advertising is not true, cut corners, false concepts, and promises are not fulfilled from time to time, making the home improvement market more confusing.
