When it comes to repairs, I hold the position: the walls and ceiling can alter, and the floor needs to be done once and for all. And the second: floor in the apartment must be made of natural materials. Do not have no urgent need to force yourself to live in any chemistry. Natural materials for the floor is not so much on the fingers of one hand can be counted. By increasing the price of linoleum obtain such a sequence. The first place is a natural linoleum.

Natural materials for the floor is not so much on the fingers of one hand can be counted. By increasing the price of linoleum obtain such a sequence. The first place is a natural linoleum. Its price is around 15 $ / sq.m. plus ten more for styling. Total floor turnkey cost of 25, maximum $ 30 per square meter. Then we go tile: after all, made of clay and easily falls into our list. Here we must rely on figures ranging from $ 20. But in fact, beautiful high quality floor tiles will cost around $ 30 / sqm. To this we must add about $ 10 per sq.m. for stacking. It's already $ 40. Somewhere nearby - a woolen carpet. But something to me it seemed too natural. I suspect that it, like in the woods, all kinds of live bacteria, microbes, and insects. Plus, dirt and dust, and eternal possession cookie crumbs, ashes from cigarettes and other household waste.

Packed and groomed carpets
Carpets have a number of advantages: they are relatively inexpensive, beautiful and yet very practical. Designers recommend changing them every 3-5 years. For a change. Today we introduce you to the existing modes of presentation. Selecting the method of installation depends on the basis of carpet, functional purpose room where the carpet is laid, the frequency of its use and condition of the floor. Before you begin laying the carpet, floor pre-align with various leveling compounds. Carpeting have several advantages: they are relatively inexpensive, beautiful and yet very practical.

Before you begin laying the carpet, floor pre-align with various leveling compounds. In addition, to increase the service life, good appearance and improve heat and sound insulation qualities of coating is recommended to use the so-called "backing". Substrate can be felt, polyurethane foam and other materials. It is important that the substrate was sufficiently dense - not less than 5-10 mm. Here are ways to mount carpet. Free installation without fixation method of free spreading of carpet is relevant in xpol (an area of ??25 square meters. M). This is the easiest and cheapest way. It lies in the fact that the carpet is fixed only on the perimeter and along the junction of double-sided adhesive tape.

Seamless Floors (liquid) of polymeric materials
Self-leveling screed (this monolithic flooring, running from mobile samorastekayuschihsya polymer-sealant on pre-prepared base or screed. Depending on the type of resin, the compositions are divided into epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic (PMMA-based) and polyester. By changing the composition, varying the thickness coating can be, depending on the requirements for the coatings are abrasion-resistant, durable, elastic, decorative and durable coating with a number of specific qualities: quiet operation, chemical resistant, hygienic, easy care and others. - Epoxy (based on the reactive groups), self-leveling floors are used in areas with tyazhelogruzhenym transportation, travel, corridors for trucks, etc., that is to be exposed to considerable mechanical stress. minimal shrinkage, good adhesion to the ground floor, the mechanical strength and high resistance to chemical attack allows you to use epoxy resin as a binder for devices such floors. The most widely used two-component epoxy water-soluble composition. - Polyurethane poured floors are resistant to abrasion, mechanical and chemical (especially acids, oils and gasoline) exposure. These floors are slip resistant to the action of bacteria and fungi, have no smell. Polyurethane composite formulations represent two, sometimes three-component system containing the basis of reactive oligomers, modifiers, curing agents. products based on polyester resins for solid flooring (resin + fine-grained quartz sand). Curing time - a few hours. The surface of the solid floor and dry, allowing the next day walk on it, ride the lifts, etc.
