Bright suite in the usual pre-fabricated house

Greetings to all those interested in this article. My name is Elena, I live in Voronezh in the usual pre-fabricated house, and a few months ago I decided to renovate the bathroom. As you have probably realized, the size of the room is not very big. Initially, the bathroom walls were painted a grim half-blue paint and whitewashed above. Then, a legacy of the Soviet Union was pasted over with oilcloth, and finally, through nearly 30 years since the construction of the house, it was decided to make the walls of the bathroom as they should be - oblitsevat tiles. Seized of the matter had me as the most progressive and the young part of the family. The floors and doors are not touched, changed plumbing not so long ago.

Choosing the wizard to repair the bathroom

Masters, of course, a lot now. Invites you to the measurements of several people, but they all sounded eventually just astronomical sums of money just to work. I decided to stay at the small entrepreneurs, to carry out all types of repair and finishing works. I bribed the fact that the IP Director recommend a shop where you can count on a discount of 5%. It seems that this is not so much, but the penny ruble cares, and ultimately on the purchase of tile, I saved about a thousand rubles. The very same work was also cheaper than those of specialists with whom communicated earlier. Tiler, to carry out repairs, proved a master of intelligent and nimble, to cope with all four days, trying to cut down on waste as possible.

Choosing tile for the bathroom 

From the variety of products ran his eyes. And after half an hour of painful choice, I stopped at one collection (I do not remember, unfortunately, the name), and bought it from four types glossy tiles: yellow - as the foundation, coral - for finishing the two corners on the sides of the bath, and a white panel with a poppy on a white background is - for center. There were also bought white baseboards and caps for finishing joints between the boards and the walls of the bath. I would like to buy coral, but this product is rarely the same color.

The repair process

Master tiler, the following steps were carried out in the course of repair:

• peeling oilcloth;
• priming wall surfaces;
• Marking for future tile series;
• laying materials;
• grouting.

Here's what happened - a bright, juicy. That's what I wanted.

In the process we decided to order the ceiling finish latex paint. About this- below.

Finishing the ceiling in the bathroom with water-based paint

Hood locality in our bathroom a very limited choice of options of finishing the ceiling. Yes, we extractor in the ceiling. At the same time on it as much as two gratings in order to avoid different fauna inhabiting the entrance of the house, the second - removable, which we from time to time my brush. Ie, no tension, no ceiling does not suit us. We consulted with the master, and decided that vodoemulsionku - what you need.
Existing whitewash specialist scraped. Apply the primer. And then began the application of paint. The first layer has laid down very badly: the ceiling there were some black island. Perhaps the problem was in the paint. After the second layer of the ceiling began to look much better, but the black specks are not lost. Then the master has covered everything again vodoemulsionkoy. And this was the final stage. In the process of drying out any spots left. It turned out beautifully. Bright yellow and coral colors give the ceiling a nice shade. But, unfortunately, a few months on the surface there were some cracks.

This point is somewhat extinguished delighted with the results of repair. But we decided to fix it on their own someday.
In general, the repair has turned out beautiful and inexpensive, about 40 thousand for all materials and work.
