It can be said in advance that before you lose your temper and fall into depression, remember that there are no hopeless situations, a minus can always be turned into a plus.

Unforeseen factors are common in the construction process. During the work, such nuances that were not visible to the naked eye may suddenly appear. It is too late to redo them. Or you do not have the funds or nerves for this.

Uneven walls

In today's reality, we often encounter the wrong walls. At first it seems that everything is fine, the wall is even, but when it comes to it, it is not so at all, and it is almost impossible to do anything on the wrong wall.

Obviously, the flaws should be hidden. The solution is quite simple. For the cladding, you should choose a texture that will mask this defect as much as possible.

In this case, it is very effective to use large, massive tiles, or modern 3D tiles, which visually mask the irregular wall very well. You can also use dark wallpaper with a large pattern or bright wallpaper with a bright pattern.

If the bathroom has an irregular wall, it is recommended to use large tiles.

Exposed electrical wires

Another defect during repair work is broken electrical wires.

This can be due to various reasons. You didn't notice it at first, you suddenly needed to change it. No need to worry, there are decorative wires that allow you to run wires without damaging the walls.

These wires come in different colors, so you can choose the color that best suits your interior. These wires are attached to the wall using special rollers.

Electrical wires can also be hidden in a metal pipe. This solution to the problem is ideal if your apartment is decorated in a high-tech, fusion or loft style.

There are also metallic colored switches that match the color of the metal pipe perfectly.

In modern, newly built apartments we often come across concrete walls that are undesirable to dismantle, and the only wire runs through the center of the room.

Don't spoil your image in this case, with the help of decorative wire you can place the chandelier anywhere in the room.

You may have a similar problem with such unplanned plumbing pipes. In this case, use your imagination. They can be decoratively disguised as a shelf.

The same can be done with heating radiators. If they are not located where you want them, you can paint it in any beautiful color and thus create a visual accent.
