click fraud protection

When my husband and I have decided to make repairs, planned to buy all the necessary material and cause masters giving them the plan of our project. The start was one result - quite different. design of the room to come up with was not difficult. The problem has become a different - finance.

What we currently nafantazirovali (ceilings, plasterboard wall construction with backlight) converges gradually to nothing. Inviting artists over and over again in order to estimate, expectations have collapsed on the go. With our request for a quote sounded like a death sentence. Especially to our wishes were added recommendations masters.

The walls of the curves - it is necessary to align. And how to align? Obbivat all the way up to the brick or drywall align. Plasterboard work cheaper, easier and faster. But plasterboard steal precious meters of space. Floor - screed, ceilings, soffits... Training facility, material, work - voiced fabulous sums. Despite the fact that the family worked, and I and my husband having a pretty good income, we could not fork over so much. Especially since I was pregnant and finance were needed in the other direction.

Gradually our requests went down. But even so, the work of craftsmen still was expensive. A renovation of the room, which is already 15 years nothing was done, it was just necessary. So we decided to make repairs themselves. Besides, none of us have never in my life even brushes for painting did not hold. But most importantly, the hand with the right place to grow, and "Yandex to help" as they say.


First I made a list of the repair order:
1. Replacement windows.
2. Replacing interior doors.
3. slopes
4. Preparation of surfaces (walls, ceiling) for further work.
5. Battery - required if not replace, the restoration.
6. Ceiling
7. Wallpapering
8. Floor.


Proofread and look for a lot of information from the Internet, books and magazines about the sequence of work, choice of materials, methods of operation.


Thus, the repair has officially begun. We were brought and installed window. The next point - the installation of interior doors. This is the only work that was carried out by masters.

Slopes.
Slopes decided to plaster and putty. This option seemed easier, faster and more economical. Before embarking on the plaster of the future slopes, the husband cut the foam to the surface and prepared further work: delete old weak plaster, scraped wall slope of debris and dust, grounded in two layer.

Along the perimeter of the window glued insulation film, which obscure the sealant. Next prepared cement mixture and apply it on the wall by spraying plaster in several layers. It was necessary that each layer is well dried out. When the last layer is completely dried out, gone in the course of the alignment of the wall. Then, the dust purification, primer and putty. The bumps and irregularities already plastered on the wall were removed using abrasive mesh. Now began to emerge a picture of the finished slope.
Again, surface treatment: purification from dust and primer. Now I am armed with a paint roller, brushes and matte latex paint. Since this paint was drying quickly - two coats of paint, brushes go in hard to reach places for roller, two hours, and the slope is ready.


The first stage has been completed! It was probably the hardest part of the job.

Ceiling.
The next stage - the preparation of walls and ceilings for further work. We removed the old wallpaper from the walls and putty from the ceiling. That's just not the most interesting part of the job.
What to do with the ceiling, it was solved so far. Ideally, it was, of course, well, the suspended ceiling or plaster. But! Since tension is expensive and generally the ceiling - not a small area, then putty you do not dare. Wallpaper - too easy, and all that was in the store, I had no idea on the ceiling. We decided on a ceiling tile from the foam. Cheap and cheerful! A simple operation very surprised. My husband was on a business trip and I managed to do everything herself.

I needed:
• Step-ladders.
• Ceiling tiles.
• adhesive liquid nails.
• Acrylic enamel for the final result.

Tile glue start diagonally to the far corner of the window, because the room is square. This simplifies the work. Glue is applied not to a dot on the tiles, and on the perimeter of each square, and a drop in the center. At the end of the blocked two layer enamel. The ceiling is ready in a couple of days.

Result liked me anymore.

Battery.
After the slopes there was nothing it was terrible. Battery sanded and degreased. In the store helped me choose a special acrylic enamel for the battery.
There was a question how to make out the surface of the battery. Wallpaper, paint, or anything else. The choice fell on a thermally reflective screen that is the foil. According to the theory it sounded cheap and energy-efficient option. Reviews of such screens deducted lot. There were both positive and negative. But from personal experience, given that the north side, together with plastic windows, foil plays a role with enthusiasm.
Pretty quickly and easily cut to fit the size of the foil, glued on liquid nails.

Effect and the view is just great. I liked the result, more and more.

Walls.
When choosing wallpaper, dizzy. They are just a mass. Vinyl, non-woven, paper - what you want. A design, color. In general, it was something to think about.
One wall is completely wanted to issue a photo wallpaper. And since most of the wall, the right size is not found. We decided to build the wall-paper of different colors and patterns.
When choosing a wallpaper, I had to take into account that we have scandalously wall curves. I chose a non-woven. The reasons are many. Firstly, there is the prospect of a future painting in a different color. Secondly, they are textured and are good at hiding flaws wall irregularities.
A wall to be decorated chose vinylic a. They are denser, due to this effect of volume will be created. For the selected wallpaper, consultants I picked up the glue.


Two days and the room begins to transform more and more.

We continue to hide irregularities of the walls. In the corners of the ceiling and between different wallpaper escaped baguettes or baseboards. Start over their glue on liquid nails, as well as on the ceiling. But it turned out the walls of the curves is quite problematic. I had a very long time to prop up a baguette, that he even began and secure in place. Therefore, we are using putty. And now liquid nails I ran from where there is a gap between the baguette and the wall, thereby filling the void. The two layers of the same enamel as the ceiling - you're done!

Floor.
There have decided not to split hairs. Sending the old linoleum, which was lying. Using a special glue for linoleum glue all the sticking place and only then to lay a new firmly against the floor.

This was the last phase of our renovation.
Believe in your strength, and you will succeed.
