Inexpensive facade of flexible tiles. Why only for frame houses?

Last year saw live on the structure facade material - a flexible tile under a brick:

From a distance, could be confused with real masonry. This is a technical pool room built of aerated concrete.

Not quite the right decision with the selection of this particular facade material, as facade system on aerated concrete must be vapor permeable - gas concrete should "breathe", giving moisture. But the use of a particular approach to the facade decoration of buildings - is a separate issue.

Base: impregnating a fiberglass mat with bitumen and texture of the fine fraction of rock chips of two colors.

shades of several options. There is also another figure - a stone. In one package - 2.2 m2 of tiles.

The cost of materials in the facade: a little more than 500 rubles / m2 (if the mount itself).. Price attractive. It looks, in my opinion, is more advantageous than the familiar siding (examples below). As for the siding does not need a crate.

Detailed instructions for self-assembly:

In the video installation instruction conducted in the OSB sheets. Those. this facade for frame houses or houses of SIP panels. Economy version of the facade for the economy homes. But the aesthetics of such a finish is not so cheap, the house looks quite attractive:

You can even play around with color, highlight dark corners in the structure

From a distance, the house looks like a brick of expensive

For a frame house or houses from SIP panels a facade - it is an additional vapor barrier. House has increasingly become a thermos, almost completely prevented from blowing off. But I would not use it to become stone houses for this reason. Therefore, this material has limited the use object.

But they can be closed plinths any foundations. Minus - constructive only with the installation of OSB-crates, which increases the cost of finishing. And the presence of wooden elements in this part of the house is not welcome. If you screw piles, then this option is optimal.

These front panels, at first glance, does not require maintenance: fit and forget. Do not burn out (unless, of course, the manufacturer uses natural basalt and granite chips Skalnik), the surface does not crack and is not used up.

But there is one feature in the tile that can require extra work (if, in addition, it is necessary to establish the forest) in the first days after its installation. Because tile attached not only nails, but also adheres to the bitumen mastic (albeit with a hardener) - 1-2 days, some tiles can delaminate. The temperature difference (thermal deformation) can be peeled material.

Perhaps the years have some tiles to stick too. Facade material young, reviews of operating there. Aging of the material (organic basis after all) has not been canceled.

If such tiles (shingles) on the roof is angled and part of her weight does not give her peel off, there is tile hanging vertically and its nothing pushes to the front.

And the rest - the material for certain types of homes (as said above) is quite worthy of the following criteria: appearance, price, performance.
