Flat ceiling paint

Once the walls, floor and ceiling are in order - cracks and holes patched, hills and mountains are removed, and themselves surfaces are aligned, you can proceed to their finish. And it is desirable to carry out this work from the top down, ie from the ceiling. Because, unfortunately, no debris and dust in the repair can not do, and if, before finishing the ceiling to lay floor coverings, they can be not only pretty dirty, but also hurt. Thus, the ceiling. After the walls, floor and ceiling are in order - cracks and holes patched, hills and mountains are removed and the surface itself aligned, you can proceed to their finish. And it is desirable to carry out this work from the top down, ie from the ceiling. Because, unfortunately, no debris and dust in the repair can not do, and if, before finishing the ceiling to lay floor coverings, they can be not only pretty dirty, but also hurt. Thus, the ceiling. This is an important element of the interior. His quality finish gives the accommodation extra comfort and elegance, and the high reflectivity of the ceiling of coverage (not necessarily white) lets you save on electricity consumption by lighting the room. Not to mention the fact that modern design options allow you to cope with a whole set of problems, previously classified as unsolvable. Form the ceiling, its geometric shape, surface color, the material of which it is made substantially affect human health, his psycho-emotional state. Ceiling - the lower surface of the overlap. His finishing is used a variety of materials. This can be wood and metal, natural stone and mirrors, and mineral and plastic plates, paint, fabric, wallpaper and much more. Ceilings can be painted, glued, stretch, podshivnoy, suspended and combined. Let's start, but not from simple to complex, and from traditional to modern. Ceilings can be glued traditional for most Russians long time were three types of ceiling finishes: whitewash, painting and wallpapering ceiling wallpaper. Since we have already lined ceiling, there are no difficulties with the implementation of these works if there is some experience there should be no. Another thing that works are quite laborious, and the result obtained would not be surprised friends and acquaintances. That is why in recent years an increasing number of people to repair their homes abandoned by their method of finishing. Instead of whitewashing, painting and ceiling wallpaper are increasingly using various options of modern building materials, which can be divided into two groups: suspended ceilings, and glue. Closest to the usual way to design ceilings are glued ceilings. As well as the already listed traditional finishes, they require a relative flatness of the ceiling, but to a much lesser extent. Finishing materials, in this case are square or rectangular panels of extruded polystyrene foam, or as it is often called Styrofoam. The most common size of ceiling tiles - 500x500 mm. The surface of the square tiles can be smooth or embossed to simulate stucco or wood carving. These tiles can be painted in any color latex paint. Also on offer are the options tiles with laminated outer surface - it is covered with plastic film, transparent or imitating wood, matting, pearl or stone. The beauty of these tiles - the ability to wet treatment. They can be cleaned with a soft sponge with warm water and soap. Just do not fill them with water. These tiles are perfect for rooms where the air is polluted, especially for kitchens. Well, uncoated - wipe with a dry cloth or vacuum cleaned with a soft nozzle. Stiroporovaya tile to the ceiling simply stuck, and the glue can be on virtually any surface: concrete, asbestos-cement, masonry, plaster and wood stoves. For bonding can be used as special adhesives for stiroporovoy tiles, and polyvinyl acetate (PVA) glue and liquid nails. In general, the material is very easy to use, since it is virtually weightless, easy to cut with a knife wallpaper, and label it does not require any special equipment and skills and can easily be done independently. In the majority of recommendations on the label stiroporovyh ceiling panels recommend the ceiling surface pre-cleaned and primed. For a primer can be diluted with water to use polyvinyl acetate adhesive. Although in most cases not necessary. In principle, stiroporovye tiles can be glued directly to the old whitewash, you only need to remove their sticker slaboprilegayuschie and flaking areas. The advantage of this material is that it is easy to hide small irregularities, which in the case of whitewashing or painting will be evident. If at the sticker tiles unexpectedly discovered that the ceiling is still more uneven than expected, and the dock tile is hard, then, to combine them at the time of the adhesive, use ordinary tailor pins. To give trimmed with stiroporovyh ceiling tiles complete the form and to close the inevitably remain between the ceiling tiles and wall cracks, use a ceiling moldings. As well as tiles, they can be made from polystyrene foam, but there are made of polyurethane foam. Classic or modern figure, white, in the tone of wood or color - ceiling cornices are optically alter the proportions of the room, to emphasize its boundaries or reconcile transitions. Application baseboard not only improves the overall appearance ceiling, but also facilitates bonding of the tiles on the edges of the ceiling. In general, a variety of ceiling moldings, cornices, fillets, sockets and other "stucco" of modern polymeric materials represent an ideal opportunity to complete your room and give it an individual color. Having seemingly indistinguishable similarity with expensive and heavy plaster or alabaster stucco, they are virtually weightless and easily mounted on walls and ceilings. In this case, however, worth considering that polystyrene and polyurethane foam are afraid of sunlight - under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, they eventually turn yellow. Glue ceilings are inexpensive: the cost per square meter to the installation may be 150-450 rubles. Buying the ceiling tiles, take them to some, about a 15%, stock, because the tiles are fragile enough in the case of unsuccessful treatment can be easily broken. And you can and hang suspended ceilings effectively decorate any room. With their help, it is easy to hide the overhead of communication and create a flawless over the head a masterpiece, whatever the shape, color and texture. An even greater variety and sophistication of such ceilings are achieved through numerous options for their lighting. There are many different constructions of suspended ceilings, so the choice of its type for each case is made with all the requirements for premises in the interior parts, acoustics, lighting, ventilation, and cost. Compared with traditional methods of finishing and adhesive variant suspended ceilings have several advantages. First of all, they do not require alignment of the main ceiling, as attached at some distance from him. This excludes "wet" stage finish that dramatically simplifies and speeds up the work. In addition, the cavity formed between the ground and a suspended ceiling, can be hidden various communications. When installing the ceiling must take into account that the space between it and the ceiling must be ventilated. It is necessary to prevent condensation of water vapor. Recommended two methods of surface cleaning: wet or dry, depending on the type of materials used. Conventional methods of care are specified in the instruction of manufacturers. Prices ceilings of various configurations, including the bearing elements and accessories, ranging in Russia on average, from 300 to 1500 rubles. per square meter, though there is much more expensive options. TAPE TO TAPE most widely used over the years received frame design to the completion of special panels. This type of ceiling is often called a bitmap, or cluster, thus emphasizing that the ceiling is going from a fairly small element of the same forms, which are placed in special mounting frame. These elements represent a slab of molded fiberglass or mineral wool with a number of fillers (clay, starch, cellulose, etc.). As used in their manufacture is lacking phenol formaldehyde resin and asbestos. They are environmentally friendly and non-flammable. Standard sizes of plates 600ґ100, 1200ґ600 1200ґ1200 mm and a thickness of 15 to 40 mm. Most often, they are monotonous white. Classical texture - smooth, but may be plates and with a rough surface, "worms" dots, jagged, geometric reliefs and other drawings. In addition to standard decorative patterns produced a series of special panels. Among them - the water-resistant panels, can withstand 100% humidity, antiudarnye with an antimicrobial coating, developed and widely used special acoustic ceilings, which significantly reduce noise levels. Listed types of panels in the majority belong to the special materials and are significantly more expensive than decorative. Binding system in the false ceilings usually consist of bearing and intermediate sections, hangers and wall profiles (fillets). As a result, the ceiling can be quickly mounted and, if necessary as quickly completely or partially removed. REECHKA to REECHKE following form suspended structures - suspended ceilings. They are usually installed in the room a small area with high humidity and fairly aggressive environment - in sanitary units and kitchens. They are lightweight, durable, environmentally friendly, not afraid of moisture, incombustibility. They are distinguished and frost, so they can be used in rooms with no heating during the cold season. The main element of such a ceiling is a thin steel or aluminum plate 0,5 mm thick, covered with several layers of lacquer baking. As a rule, they have a width of 10 or 15 cm and a length of 4 meters suspended ceilings have a very wide range of colors exterior. In addition to traditional flowers, they can mimic plated, gold plated or chrome-plated surface to be frosted or mirror, with or without perforation. Ceilings with perforated facing elements are recommended to improve the acoustic qualities - they dampen the reverb, but with a decorative pattern - to improve the architectural and aesthetic qualities of the premises. Additional diversity in the appearance of the ceiling can be made to the so-called layout - thin profiled decorative strips that are inserted between the main panels, and various fixtures. Installation of suspended ceilings is simple. Along with decorative plates comes bearing profile - a comb, which is attached to the main ceiling. Sami decorative panel to comb just "snap" - inserted into the corresponding attachment clamp. If necessary, they also can be easily removed. Suspended ceilings can be mounted on the grid. In this case, the ceiling mounted special hooks, from which descend down the suspensions of adjustable length. To attach the suspension support profiles and have them snap the panel. OTHER OPTIONS In addition to scanning and slatted ceilings there are other options. Among them were recently becoming more common mirrored ceilings. As well as a cluster of suspended ceilings, and their decorative elements are leaf size 60x60 cm and are mounted on a metal armature bitmap. Approximate price of such ceilings - 900-1500 rubles per square meter. The choice of mirror panels and colorful layouts in the Russian market is extremely wide. Its products offer both Western and domestic manufacturers. Another option - hung from the ceiling drywall sheets on galvanized steel frame. These ceilings are used, if necessary to provide sufficient heat or noise insulation. In contrast to all other variants of suspended ceiling construction of drywall after installation requires finishing. True, there are special options for such ceiling, when the plasterboard on the inside with a layer of acoustic felt, but from the front - a decorative coating. Well, finishing with suspended ceilings, we note that their common structural disadvantage is that they are designed for high altitude areas. Suspension design "lowers the ceiling of your apartment at least 15-20 cm, and it's done. If you want the ceiling separated from the ground at a shorter distance, will have to come up with its own suspension design. Drew - and order of the individual registration option on horizontal surfaces above their heads - stretched ceiling. They are made of heavy-duty canvas vinyl polymer composition of special thickness 0,17-0,22 mm directly to enterprises producing for the pre-made in each individual room measurements. According to the developed sketch made from a separate strips of PVC fabric to cut out exactly the right size room with all its features, after which the pattern is processed on the perimeter of a special flexible plate (garponom), which was subsequently used in its tension. The finished cloth is treated with special structures, fold, using the interlayer strips, packed in several layers of insulating film and delivered to the customer. Installation of suspended ceilings made only by companies-distributors, certified to perform this type of work manufacturer of the ceiling, as this type of work requires not only special equipment and materials, but also professional skills. The advantages of suspended ceilings should include the highest quality surface is obtained, their moisture protection, fire safety, high strength (holds up to 100 kg per m2), ease of use (no need for special care), as well as quick installation and long life (approximately 15-20 years) with assurance of 10 years provided by the companies-manufacturers on the design of the ceiling. To this must be added a wide range of colors, mirror, matte, metallic and translucent options, the ability to create complex three-dimensional structures, which makes the stretch ceilings are extremely interesting for elegant design solutions. But the range of suspended ceilings is almost unlimited: from apartments and offices to hotels, swimming pools and concert halls. As the shortcomings of stretch ceilings is usually referred to as the fact that they need to be carefully protected from contact with sharp objects, as well as a high price. It is higher than all other design options ceilings, and increases with decreasing area of ??the ceiling. Now on the Russian market of finishing materials featured products from both western and domestic manufacturers, with the cost of suspended ceilings Russian production significantly lower than the price of imported virtually the same quality. The procedure for installation of stretch ceilings rather complicated and depends on the premises and used fixtures. Therefore, we will not go into details and only pointed out the main stages of the simplest option. First of all, the walls around the perimeter of the room horizontally, and at the same level perpetuate a special profile (baguette) rigid plastic or duralumin, for which subsequently engages garponom leaf ceiling, and up to one degree measuring angles of the room. Frames must be securely fastened, as tension force on the ceiling of his separation from the wall will be approximately equal to 60 kg per meter. After that, carefully unfold the canvas ceiling, while the room temperature should be 40-50oC, which is specially heated heat gun. How to deploy a highly responsible, because at this moment cloth can be easily damaged, and it should be deployed so that all its angles coincide with the corners of the room. Now it is time to install the canvas prints. Pre-polymer fabric, too warm, making it expandable. To start painting gears garponom for prints in all the corners, and then attach the perimeter, ensuring a snug fit for his prints. Once the ceiling is strung, go to the installation of lighting fixtures, each of which has its own peculiarities. HEM tasteful and latest version of the design of ceilings, which I must say - it's boarding ceiling. They are made of plasterboard, decorative panels and other sheet materials. They are attached to a pre-mounted on the base ceiling wooden or metal frame. Most used for ceiling materials can be bent, which allows to obtain curved surfaces. When the device of this ceiling, as well as for mounting outboard models, there are no "wet" manual processes. These ceilings are primarily used in areas with small (1-2 cm) bumps overlap and where there is no routing of communications in the axil of the ceiling. Need to take into account that such ceilings can not be installed recessed fixtures. Unlike all the above false ceilings, the ceiling requires further decoration. Feature of the false ceilings of gypsum board is also of considerable weight: weight of 1 m2 of ceiling ranges from 16 to 19 kg depending on the method of its attachment to the ceiling. Well, if you are able to work on a tree and you have the time, the magnificent ceiling, including a rather complex profile, with no extra costs can be made of thin plywood. Bent plywood at will, carefully sanded the surface and putty all joints and irregularities, painted in the color you want and install the original fixtures, you can make a ceiling not less tension. In addition, for the manufacture of the hands of the original boarding ceiling can be used and are available now in the sale of a variety of wall panels. So many choices, and we can always choose one that will make a unique ceiling decoration of your home. Now a few words about the procedure itself finishing the ceiling. Ways to label an infinite number of ceiling tiles, and they primarily depend on the desires, tastes and characteristics of the room. As the traditional method of stickers ceiling tiles can be reduced next. Spend the middle of the ceiling of the base line, find the geometric center of the room - it is enough to draw two diagonals from corner to corner. Once the center is defined, you can start a sticker tiles. The first two tiles stick so that they are located close to each other along the midline symmetrically about the central point. The remaining tile glue back to back with neighbor, trying to avoid their displacement relative to each other. When you reach the wall, you may need to trim tiles. This option is not the most economical, since it may require cutting the tiles from all four sides of the room, but as a result they all have the Xia neatly and symmetrically. Simpler and more rational it may seem the way in which the label ceiling tiles starts from any corner of the room, after all you ever need to cut much smaller tiles. However, in this case, you must first make sure that the opposite side of the room parallel to each other. If the walls apart, that we are not uncommon, it can lead to an incorrect figure labels and the need for complicated cutting tiles. Bearing elements of raster ceiling is calculated on the basis of the load from the ceiling elements the order of 8-10 kg/m2. To the base of the ceiling using dowels attached suspenders with profiles that form evromoduli 600x600, 1200x600 mm, which is placed and ceiling panels. They can be stacked in two main ways: by T-shaped profiles or with longitudinal grooves in the ceiling panels, making them fit together without gaps. A. KOLOTILKIN
