The term “Mao Embryo House” (毛坯房) refers to a rough, unfinished house in China, typically with bare walls and no interior decoration. When decorating the walls of such a house, here are some key precautions to consider:

1. Inspect the Wall Condition

  • Check for cracks, uneven surfaces, or dampness before starting any decoration.
  • Repair defects (e.g., fill cracks, level uneven areas) to ensure a smooth base.

2. Moisture & Waterproofing

  • Apply waterproofing treatment (especially in kitchens, bathrooms, and balconies) to prevent future leaks or mold.
  • Ensure walls are completely dry before painting or applying wallpaper.

3. Wall Leveling (Putty & Sanding)

  • Use high-quality putty to smooth the surface (usually 2-3 layers).
  • Sand the walls evenly after each layer dries to avoid bumps.

4. Choose the Right Paint or Wallpaper

  • For paint: Opt for environmentally friendly, low-VOC options. Apply primer first for better adhesion.
  • For wallpaper: Ensure the wall is clean and smooth. Use moisture-resistant glue if needed.

5. Electrical & Plumbing Considerations

  • Mark the locations of hidden wires or pipes to avoid drilling into them.
  • Install conduits or back boxes for sockets/switches before final wall treatment.

6. Ventilation During & After Decoration

  • Maintain good airflow to speed up drying and reduce harmful fumes.
  • Avoid decorating in extremely humid or cold weather.

7. Post-Decoration Care

  • Avoid touching or washing the walls for at least 1–2 weeks to let materials fully set.
  • Clean stains gently with a soft cloth to prevent damage.

By following these steps, you can ensure a durable and aesthetically pleasing wall finish for your roughcast home. If hiring professionals, supervise the process to guarantee quality.
