Almost every one of us there is a period of change, when you want to refresh the repairs in the apartment, home, or need to make repairs. Or maybe you have purchased a house in a new building? Then you definitely have to think about a beautiful renovation, where all the design ideas come to life!

But before we begin this important matter, to be a bit of organizational work:

design apartment and placement of furniture (from this repair depends on many things - sockets, switches, wiring, etc.);
master Search, So the price was within reason and good reputation - a very important point!
The choice of materials and price comparison. Believe me, it is better to spend a few days and explore the different shops and markets construction, because, when large volumes of work, the savings would be substantial;
budgeting, atleast approximately. All the same, all the details and additional costs can not be taken into account, they can be seen already in the process, but rather that the money left. Then, at the end of the repair can be, for example, nice to celebrate the new home, or buy a nice coffee table and chic floor lamp!

Perhaps this is the key issues that must be solved before the start.

Our repairs are not started with the purchase of a new apartment, and "killed" - no repair at all. Do it ourselves (well, almost) as a husband is engaged in finishing and painting.

The first step was the dismantling of the old: windows, doors, balcony blocks, old tile in the bathroom, a heavy cast-iron bath (passed the scrap metal). Still, we decided to expand the storage area at the expense of the bedroom. House panel and the wall was not easy to fill and very noisy.

By the way about the noise! Better before the high-profile work, post a message on the first floor, specifying the days and times most of the noise and, of course, sorry for the inconvenience. So you will have a chance not to quarrel with neighbors. After dismantling all need to take to the dump, in alfatery construction waste disposed of is prohibited. All that we have done - repair has begun ...

In the second stage insert a new front door, windows. We replaced all the wiring, sockets and cables placed behind the TV, then to the cords are not hanging like garlands.

The third stage was a wall insulation foam. Then pasted grid, so there was no crack in the future. Ceilings made squares on the perimeter. Usually they are made of plasterboard, but we decided to reduce the price of the item and pasted the same foam - turned out not worse.

Next was putty walls and regiments. First, starting 2-3 putty layer, followed by acrylic acid, and finally finish. In parallel, the master put the tiles in the bathroom and toilet. We have a small bathroom, so it was necessary to accommodate all the compact. To this end, I have drawn on the walls and floor of the exact dimensions of the shower, washing machine, etc.

After the walls have dried up, and their poshkurili pogruntovali. Then pokleit baguettes and painted ceiling, then the walls. Apartment style - minimalist, but that was nice. The paint for the walls took silky-matte. I really like to care, clean. And the color depth it conveys elegant.

The final step was the laying laminate, skirting boards and the final design of the apartment furnishings.
