After the frame house is completely completed, a more interesting process begins - finishing work. It is important to carry out this stage with all responsibility, so that in the end the interior becomes cozy and stylish.
Interior decoration frame house usually made to the taste of the owner, in accordance with his preferences, but the material for covering the walls, floor and ceiling should be selected durable and of high quality so that it can prolong the wear of the entire structure for a long time.
Several rules for successfully finishing a frame house
Before you start finishing, you definitely need some important rules, on which the final result will depend. The main recommendations include the following points:
- You shouldn’t start decorating every room at the same time. It is better to start by making renovations in one room, for example, in the bedroom, and then gradually decorate other rooms;
- It is better to start repairs in a room that is located as far as possible from the entrance. In this case, this room can be closed with a door to prevent dirt and debris from getting into it when performing finishing works in other rooms;
- You should start finishing only after all the wires, pipes and other communication elements have been hidden. All these components can be covered with plasterboard, wood panels, plastic and other finishing materials;
- It’s better to start by finishing the ceiling, and then gradually working your way down to the floor;
- It is advisable to cover the already finished surfaces with film so that dust and dirt do not fall on them, and it is better to seal the joining elements with tape.
Wooden finishing materials
Last time wooden materials for decoration have become quite popular and are often used for cladding walls, floors, and ceilings. Using wood panels, you can create not only a pleasant atmosphere in your home, but also give the interior originality and style.
Lining and block house in the interior of a frame house
Lining is practical material, which is suitable for covering absolutely any surface. In appearance, this material looks like smooth panels with a smooth and even surface. Installation is carried out using the tongue and groove method.
Features of the lining:
- Suitable for finishing walls, floors, ceilings. The surface is smooth without bumps or defects;
- Can be used in almost any room - bedrooms, living room, kitchen, dining room, bathroom and toilet, baths, saunas, verandas, attics;
- The lining can have different textures, which will give the interior style and bright design;
- Only used for production natural wood– pine, larch, linden, oak, Canadian cedar.
The block house, unlike the lining, has an unusual appearance, for this reason the panels are used for decorative finishing. Due to the fact that there are rounded wounds on the surface after covering with these panels, the cladding turns out to be unusual, and in the room it seems that the whole house is made of rounded logs.
The block house can be used to decorate walls, ceilings, and partitions. Used for interior decoration different rooms– for bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, dining rooms, bathrooms and toilets, attics, verandas.
Important! Before you begin installing the lining and block house, you must make the sheathing. Due to this, the coating will be smooth without bumps or defects. You can also place insulation material inside.
Using imitation timber and planken
Imitation timber is a popular finishing material that is often used to decorate residential premises. Finishing options include its use for cladding different surfaces- walls, floor, ceiling.
Using imitation timber, you can cover surfaces different rooms– living room, bedrooms, kitchens, dining rooms, bathrooms and toilets, baths, saunas, verandas, attics. Only natural wood species are used for production.
Planken is similar to imitation timber, but unlike it, the panels have smooth geometric shapes. For this reason, the cladding made of this material looks even and smooth. Suitable for covering walls, floors, ceilings.
Decorative beams
Decorative beams are considered wonderful products for decorating the interior of a private home. They are highly versatile and blend perfectly with the surrounding environment of the room, for this reason they can be used to decorate the design of any room.
Types of decorative beams:
- L-shaped. These elements can be used to decorate the perimeter of the ceiling, as well as door and window openings;
- U-shaped. These options can be used for finishing walls and ceilings;
- columns. Products of this type are suitable for decorating living rooms, verandas, and attics. Can also be used to divide large rooms into zones.
Pay attention! False beams can be used not only to decorate a space, but also to disguise communication elements, wires and other unsightly elements.
Wood varieties
Lining, blockhouse, imitation timber, planken, decorative beams are usually made from natural wood. But in order for the external cladding of walls, ceilings, and floors to look beautiful and natural, preference should be given to the following types of wood:
- Pine. This is a practical type of wood that is used for making various panels. Pine is a durable wood that can withstand high humidity, while it does not deform or lose its shape. Walls, floors, and ceilings finished with this material can retain heat in the room during the cold season. Also has a long service life;
- Larch. This type of wood has similar properties to pine. But the difference is higher strength. Manufacturers use it to make budget finishing products;
- Linden. Durable wood with a flat and smooth surface. Due to the fact that panels made from this wood have a beautiful wood quality, the room creates a bright and original style;
- Oak and Canadian cedar. These varieties are considered the most durable, which is why products are made from them high class. The service life is more than 50 years.
Parquet and cork flooring
Perfect for finishing floors parquet board and cork covering. These products allow you to create a smooth and durable floor covering that will look perfect in the design of a frame house.
Parquet boards are often used for decorative flooring, the main thing is to choose the right material in terms of color and composition. You can lay it in different ways– deck laying, herringbone, diamond or square laying. After installation, the parquet should be additionally sanded with a special apparatus, tinted and coated with a special varnish (at least three times).
Cork is not considered as popular a flooring material as parquet boards. But recently it has become in increased demand. However, it is not recommended for use in rooms with high loads, because the base can be easily damaged by sharp edges of furniture.
Alternative materials
In addition to wood, other types of materials can be used to decorate walls from the inside, namely:
- glass wallpaper. This decorative coating for walls, which has a lot of positive qualities. They have high moisture resistance and fireproof properties, for this reason this material will perfect coverage for the walls of a frame house. In addition, there is a wide variety of colors and patterns that can diversify the style and interior design;
- decorative plaster. This material will be an excellent base for walls. A variety of colors will allow you to diversify the overall atmosphere. Due to the fact that the mixtures are highly resistant to moisture, they can be used to decorate the walls of bathrooms, toilets, and kitchens;
- drywall. This universal material is perfect for covering walls and ceilings. The flexibility and softness of the base allows you to give various shapes. It is often used to make multi-level ceilings, niches, partitions, arches.
Often used for ceilings suspended ceilings, which fascinate with their beauty. All stretch ceilings can be glossy, matte or satin. Glossy and satin are considered the most beautiful and stylish, but matte ones are considered budget options. These types of ceilings are made from PVC and fabric.
Decorating the house with frame structure must be carried out strictly according to plan. It is important to first carefully prepare for this process and plan the design of your living space. After this, you can begin selecting materials for finishing. Wood panels are considered to be the highest quality and most durable, especially since they will harmonize most closely with the wood structure.
It would seem that the house has been built. However, it is not suitable for housing, as it still resembles an empty box. In order to give the room a residential and cozy look, it needs subsequent finishing, both external and internal. The interior finishing of a frame house itself is divided into two stages: rough work and final finishing. Each of the stages is important in its own way and we will tell you about them in more detail.
What is meant by interior decoration?
Interior decoration of the house allows you to give the room not only a finished look, but also to bring repairs or construction to its logical conclusion. Depending on the task at hand, the actions vary. For example, if renovations were carried out inside an already built room, then it is not necessary to carry out rough finishing work.
There are several rules that you should rely on if you want to do the interior decoration of your home yourself:
- The finishing of the room is carried out progressively as it progresses. It is not recommended to start finishing work in all rooms at once,
- if there are several rooms, then the repair first begins in the furthest from front door room,
- all finishing work is carried out after new communications, such as cable ducts, have been replaced or laid, water pipes and electrical cables,
- repairs are carried out “from top to bottom”: first, work is carried out on the ceiling, then finishing is carried out interior walls Houses. Next comes the floor. The exception is the case when frame house stretch ceilings are used. In this case, the ceiling is attached last.
- It would be advisable to cover all areas of the room not involved in finishing with thick plastic film to protect surfaces from contamination and construction debris.
As a rule, the speed of finishing is also influenced by several factors:
- the complexity of finishing the room,
- timely delivery of materials,
- budget,
- force majeure circumstances.
On average, interior decoration small house an area of 40 m2 can take a month, an area of 60 m2 already takes 1.5-2 months, and complex finishing multi-storey building will require 3 months of work. For the most part, the timing of the work depends on the qualifications of the invited construction team. Many companies offer projects frame houses already “turnkey”, while all work, from preparing the foundation to handing over the keys to the owners, takes no more than two months. If you want to carry out the finishing yourself, you must take into account that without the proper amount of free time, repairs can drag on for years. It is not for nothing that they say that “repairs do not end, they are suspended.”
Rough finishing of a house includes measures to prepare the surface of walls, floors and ceilings for finishing work. Such measures include removing old or poor-quality coatings, preparing and leveling surfaces, screeding floors and installing slopes on windows.
The finishing is finishing stages finishing work, when the walls and ceiling are painted or wallpapered, or finished with facing materials.
The use of natural wood lining will have a beneficial effect not only on the aesthetics of the interior, but also on the microclimate prevailing inside the room. Moreover, the combination of cedar and linden wood will reduce the frequency of headaches. Correctly selected finishing materials will allow you to change the interior beyond recognition in the shortest possible time.
What materials are used?
The modern materials market offers many different solutions to suit every taste. Basically, it all depends on the allocated budget and personal preferences. For rough finishing, sheets of plasterboard and OSB are often used. Their advantage is that the flat surface of the sheet allows you to hide wall imperfections, such as:
- curved or untreated wall surface,
- the need to install an internal partition,
- implementation of complex design compositions,
These materials will allow short term cladding the internal walls and preparing them for further finishing and finishing work. For finishing The following materials are used:
- Wallpaper. The following varieties are available on the market:
- traditional paper ones. They are distinguished by their low price, but at the same time they are often aesthetically unattractive, are not resistant to moisture and cold, and are short-lived. Good for wall coverings non-residential premises, or as a temporary solution,
- vinyl varieties are characterized by increased strength and resistance to mechanical damage,
- acrylic wallpaper is good for its moisture resistance and durability,
- non-woven wallpaper made of foam vinyl is more often used as a base for applying decorative paint,
- Fiberglass wallpaper is characterized by high fire safety and mechanical strength. Moreover, they are suitable for painting walls,
- Photo wallpapers are notable for the fact that they allow you to recreate a kind of “living” corner inside the house.
- Ceramic tiles for cladding. It is good because it is characterized by high wear resistance and a high degree of decorativeness. At the same time, it requires a perfectly flat surface. It is advisable to mount it on drywall, or on a carefully leveled wall surface. The good thing about tiles is that there are many textured varieties on the market that perfectly imitate various surfaces: from brick to natural stone.
- Lining made from natural wood will give the room a natural look and home comfort. In addition, wood has high heat and sound insulation characteristics. Experts divide types of lining into categories based on the quality of the final product:
- “Extra” grade means a high quality product, without surface defects,
- grade “A” allows for the presence of small darkened spots and chips in the lamellas,
- grade “B” means that there are several knots and cracks on one lamella,
- grade "C" is different low price, while wood slats often have surface defects such as cracks, knots, resin bags and dark spots.
On the other hand, when creating a vintage setting, such slats will give the room a more attractive antique look.
- Plastic lining is characterized by its low price and ease of installation. Plastic or PVC are not susceptible to biological activity, but at the same time they are not able to bring real comfort to the room. The artificiality of the material is immediately noticeable to the eye. Their heat and sound insulation characteristics are inferior to similar models made of natural wood, but at the same time advantages of PVC for finishing made it possible to ensure such popularity of the material.
- Liquid wallpaper is a dry mixture of a binder and cotton or cellulose fibers. This type of wallpaper is successful in that it allows you to hide defects in the surface on which it was applied. In addition, due to its texture, liquid wallpaper is valuable for its decorative properties.
- Decorative plaster is known for its fireproof and mechanical properties. At the same time, it is easy to apply, and the final cost is not high.
- Magnesium glass sheets are quite new material. It consists of wood shavings, fiberglass mesh and chemical additives. This material is fire-resistant and moisture-resistant, while providing good adhesion to almost any applied material.
- Flexible stone combines all the advantages of natural stone, but at the same time has ductility and flexibility. This material is produced in the form of wallpaper and decorative panels. It is characterized by ease of installation and wear resistance, along with high environmental friendliness and resistance to external factors.
Where does the interior decoration of a frame house begin?
Any work starts with preparatory stages. After all communication systems have been installed and laid, you must first determine the location of sockets, switches and plumbing system outlets. Further work is carried out depending on the material used.
First you need to stock up on a tool that is in demand in any situation:
- roulette,
- spatula,
- building level,
At the same time, it is also worth remembering that any work requires the proper degree of protection. Glasses with polycarbonate lenses will protect your eyes from construction particles, and good durable gloves will protect your hands from possible cuts.
Plasterboard finishing: features
Drywall is good because it allows you to hide all the unevenness of any surface. In this case, there is no need to perform labor-intensive leveling of the walls due to the fact that the plasterboard sheets are attached to metal frame. The work itself on installing the sheets is carried out quickly.
At the same time, the material demonstrates another advantage: the free space between the sheet and the wall allows you to hide cable channels with electrical wiring there. Among other things, the low weight of plasterboard sheets does not create a significant load on the floors, and thanks to this, complex geometric structures are constructed, including even multi-level ceilings.
If the frame house inside is an unfurnished dwelling, then the decision to use plasterboard for interior decoration will be correct.
The installation of sheets itself is divided into several stages:
- starting UD profiles are attached along the intended line using self-tapping screws,
- the wiring is laid in special plastic boxes or corrugated flexible PVC pipes,
- free space, if necessary, is filled with insulation,
- sheets of plasterboard are laid on the profile and attached to it with metal screws. In this case, the head of the screw must be recessed at least 1 mm deep,
- The seams between the sheets are filled with putty. In this case, excess material is removed with a spatula and the seams are aligned,
- after that, using fine-grained sandpaper, all joints and surfaces are sanded plasterboard sheet ready for finishing and application of any chosen material.
Finishing with OSB boards
The installation of such boards itself is not much different from the process of sheathing with plasterboard, with the only difference being that OSB boards have significantly more weight. Therefore, finishing a frame house with such material will require more durable and reliable fasteners.
When laying slabs, it is worth considering the following features:
- for fastening slabs to wooden frame spiral nails 50 mm long are used,
- at the joints, nails are driven in every 15 cm,
- Gaps of 1 cm should be left along the edges to the edge of the walls, the distance between slabs that do not have a connection should be no more than 2 mm,
- OSB sheets are laid on the floor perpendicular to the joists,
- After fastening, it is recommended to sand the surface of the slab using fine-grained sandpaper,
- It is also recommended to varnish the slabs in three layers, with careful and natural drying of each applied layer. This coating will protect the structure of the material from possible penetration of moisture,
If you plan to cover the surface of the OSB board with paint or plaster, then in this case you will need to prime it first.
Plaster and wallpaper for painting
Decorative plaster for interior decoration of a house, photos of which are provided below, is an excellent option. This material will hide wall defects and unevenness.
It is good because it is not afraid of moisture and does not absorb soot and odors, which is especially valuable for the kitchen. In addition, the plaster can be washed.
Paintable wallpaper is good because it allows you to completely change the interior over time, without resorting to significant expenses. To do this, it is enough to repaint them, covering them with a layer new paint old In addition, wallpaper for painting often has a texture, allowing you to create a uniform and seamless surface.
The gluing of such wallpaper itself is no different from gluing simple wallpaper, with the difference that after gluing the wallpaper you need to give it a day before applying paint to it.
Application of lining and imitation timber
Many types of lining are interesting because they are able to recreate a full-fledged imitation of wood, which is especially important for country houses. The presence of wood resins will allow the timber to maintain its durability and other properties.
At the same time, the price for such material is affordable and affordable even for small budgets. Especially if you purchase “C” grade lining, which, despite the defectiveness of the surface, will bring the interior country house vintage.
The price for high-quality lining starts from $8 for a lamella 4 m long and 10 cm wide.
Wood simulants are good for their environmental friendliness and durability. Thanks to the lining heat treatment does not crack over time and does not lose its quality. Therefore, this material will remain attractive for a long time in the eyes of many owners of country houses who have decided to carry out interior decoration with this particular material.
No matter how warm, cozy and comfortable your home is, it won’t look good without quality finishing on the outside. Modern finishing frame house can be made of a variety of materials, both natural and synthetic. Each type exterior finishing has its pros and cons, features of mounting to the wall, differences in prices. There are some that you can easily do yourself, while others are best left to a specialist.
What is this for?
Non-ventilated structures lack such an important component as an air gap. They attach directly to the wall, making installation much easier. At the same time, the panels also protect the walls well from temperature changes in winter, and in summer they reflect sun rays, maintaining a comfortable room temperature.
Suspended structures can be used not only for cladding new buildings, but also old ones. The principles of attaching screens to the wall do not cause damage or deformation. This is especially true for ventilated facade panels.
Before installation work To extend the life of the walls of your home, you do not need to carry out additional processing or dismantle the old cladding.
Wet cladding of a wooden building
Can wet cladding of a frame house be done with additional insulation? To do this, go to the outside OSB boards it is necessary to glue the foam boards. Here you need to be careful and choose foam plastic specifically for exterior decoration. This material is called façade, and is marked with the letter F, for example: PSBS-25f. Do not buy extruded foam, which store consultants like to recommend. It is more expensive, but is completely unsuitable for exterior decoration of frame houses. The fact is that it does not allow steam to pass through at all, which means that the walls will not be ventilated and condensation in the form of water droplets will accumulate on them. And frame walls are already much more airtight than those made of brick or blocks.
EPS can only be used when insulating the base, as it is harder and does not absorb moisture. For better fastening there is a primer for it (it is too smooth by itself), it is necessary to scratch the slabs sanding paper or scratch it with something sharp.
Let's place the foam on the glue, joint to joint. Using polystyrene foam you can create decorative elements on the facade of the building. They are ideally located near windows or around the front door.
On sheets of foam plastic (you can take the thinnest one - for example, 40 mm, since frames, as a rule, already have insulation mineral wool) apply a layer of special glue 4-6 mm thick. A fiberglass mesh is embedded in the glue, acting as the so-called base reinforcing layer. It is coated on top with a special quartz primer, which includes a fine sand filler.
Only after all this work has been completed can a layer of decorative plaster be applied, which differ in both color scheme, and in composition.
Types of plaster for exterior finishing:
- acrylic
- silicone
- silicate
- mineral
- with various fillers
Important: Please note special attention on the quality of the reinforcing mesh. The adhesives release alkali, which can dissolve the reinforcing layer, causing the entire finish to become unusable.
Facade brick for cladding
Facade bricks can also be of various types. It differs in its composition, color, and additional inclusions. The most common types of bricks for exterior decoration are:
- silicate
- hyper-pressed
- ceramic
Sand-lime brick has the most reasonable cost, and ceramic brick creates the most stylish and neat appearance of the building thanks to its surface. It can be smooth, glazed, or even matte. Hyperpressed brick contains fine limestone and shell rock, which reduces the percentage of moisture absorption. Facade bricks are also divided into:
- hollow
- full-bodied
In the hollow facade brick holes are created to provide an air gap. Therefore, such brick retains heat better.
External brick cladding can be done various types styling Do not finish when low temperatures, since the solution may freeze.
Number calculation required material For exterior finishing frame houses should be done in advance, since different batches of bricks may have slight differences in shades, which will be noticeable after the cladding is completed. After exterior finishing, you can achieve a more even shade of the masonry if you treat the wall with a solution of 10% perchloric acid.
Siding and PVC panels - cheap and tasteful
Siding is panels for the outer cladding of frame buildings made of polyvinyl chloride, the thickness of which is about 1.0 -1.3 mm. This is the cheapest and easiest way of exterior finishing. frame walls, which you can do yourself. Thanks to its synsetic structure, siding is not subject to destruction, and allows you to forget about protecting your home for a long time. The sheathing does not deform, does not rot, and fungi and bacteria do not like the material. The appearance of the house takes on neat European features, and the use structural elements and different shades makes the house special.
A frame house protected by siding is not subject to corrosion. The lining material and all cladding can withstand sudden temperature changes from minus 40 to plus 60.
This is the best way to finish a frame building with a light foundation. The lightness of the finishing material does not put a lot of stress on the walls and base.
This type of siding has become especially popular: façade panels PVC under the stone. PVC is a synthetic material that provides an excellent basis for imitation natural stone, granite, brick, marble. At the same time, this type of finish is easy to clean and can be used to protect the base.
Panels with siding can be mounted on a frame, which provides an additional air gap. Additional ventilation helps remove excess moisture from the wall and retains heat. In addition, you can additionally use insulation.
Thermal panel cladding with clinker tiles
You can cover the walls with stone on the outside using thermal panels. The material is created on the basis of polyurethane, and performs not only protective and decorative functions, but also insulation.
The panels are fixed in a seamless manner, which improves the finishing properties. Clinker tiles, which create a beautiful appearance for a frame building, strengthen the walls, improving its shockproof properties. The tiles are not subject to abrasion, destruction and deformation by fungus, mold and bacteria. It is easy to clean.
The installation process occurs in several stages:
- Verification of building geometry. All walls should be smooth and the corners should be 90 degrees. If there is a deviation, it is necessary to use additional lathing for the frame house.
- We begin work by securing the base profile. Fastening in progress aluminum profile horizontally along the base of the frame structure.
- The next stage is corner thermal panels. We attach the panel to the base of the profile.
- We fix the panels using dowels or self-tapping screws. Using the puzzle method we put together all the panels.
- Using polyurethane foam, we seal the panels, eliminating the gaps between them.
- We treat the seams with frost-resistant grout.
The biggest disadvantage of this method of framing frames is the price.
Facade tiles for brick, stone and other natural materials
By using wall cladding in this way, you can protect the walls, change the design of the house, and give the old house a new look. fresh look. On wooden walls The tiles are secured with lathing, otherwise moisture can penetrate from the tiles to the wall. The tiles must fit together tightly enough to prevent moisture penetration. Fixation occurs using adhesive solutions.
Due to its composition, tiles for external decoration have the following qualities:
- Variety of colors and shapes.
- Various reliefs and textures, shine and dullness.
- Inexpensive and easy installation.
- An excellent choice for residential premises.
- The weight of the tiles is quite light, so no additional strengthening of the foundation is required.
- Can be used for wooden frame buildings, as it does not weigh them down.
- Protects the wall from condensation and moisture penetration into the frame wall.
- Eco-friendly and harmless.
- Easily repairable.
- May look like trim from elite varieties stone, granite and marble, while the price is much cheaper.
Such tiles consist of concrete, sand, plastic and coloring pigment.
Block house: modern type of cladding
Give your home a natural and natural look wooden house It will help to use it in finishing a block house. It is a rounded log (or beam) with a flat surface inside. The flat surface is attached to the wall, as a result of which the frame house takes on the appearance of a house made of timber. Even inexpensive panel houses look like luxury housing.
In addition to its excellent appearance, the blockhouse has the following features:
- It perfectly protects the walls of the house from external influences environment, including from rain, snow, frost or scorching rays of the sun.
- Durable and not subject to destruction, thanks to modern high-quality impregnations.
- The exterior finishing of a frame house with a block house can be carried out with simultaneous insulation and soundproofing of the building.
- Quick and easy fixation can be done with your own hands.
- It is easy to replace one or more finishing elements and make repairs.
- Combines well with plastic, brick, decorative plaster, giving a unique appearance to a frame house.
In this article we will look at the options for interior finishing of frame houses. Let's look at what materials are used for this and why some are used more often than others. Let's talk about the stages of rough and finishing. We will also consider step by step instructions installation of some finishing materials. This article will be useful to those who have decided on their own suburban area get by with small capital investments and build a frame house.
What is a frame house
Purely structurally, it is a box assembled from lumber, sheathed on both sides with slab or sheet building materials, between which insulation is laid. The cladding material must meet certain requirements, the main ones being strength, reliability, moisture resistance (if the rooms are wet) and good load-bearing capacity.
It turns out that the internal surfaces of a frame house are practically no different from the same planes in an ordinary building, for example, built of brick. This means that any finishing materials and structures can be used to make the rooms inside a frame house cozy and beautiful.
Rough finish
The finishing of the walls of a frame house inside begins with the installation of slab or sheet materials on the frame. Usually plywood, OSB, chipboard, plasterboard or gypsum fiber boards are used for this. They are simply installed to the frame of the house and secured with self-tapping screws.
There is nothing complicated in this operation. It is important to trim or adjust the slabs (sheets) so that they fit together on the sheathing elements. Therefore, even at the stage of designing a house, architects try to make this adjustment using frame elements. This is how waste reduction is achieved by trimming the sheathing sheets.
It is clear that such cladding of a frame house from the inside cannot be finished, so it is called rough, that is, not final. The main task at this stage is to form the planes of the walls, which will subsequently be finished completely.
Finishing
So, let's move on to the main process - finishing. And let's start by denoting general rules carrying out this type of work:
Interior finishing process carried out separately, and not all at once. That is, they begin to renovate one room, finish it, and move on to another.
The entire designated stage start from the front door of the back room, gradually moving towards the exit from the house.
First they carry out communication networks, then proceed to finishing work.
In each room finishing is carried out in the direction top down. That is, first of all the ceiling is finished, then the walls and at the very end the floor base. There is an exception if it is decided to install a tension structure on the ceiling. Then the walls are finished first, then the floor, and only at the end the ceiling is pulled up.
Now we move on to the choice of materials and technologies for their laying or installation.
On our website you can find contacts of construction companies that offer construction services for small architectural forms. You can communicate directly with representatives by visiting the “Low-Rise Country” exhibition of houses.
Wallpaper
This material has the widest model line. And this is not only design, but also variations in manufacturing method and raw materials. Today, manufacturers offer several options with different bases:
paper;
non-woven;
vinyl;
fiberglass;
acrylic;
fabric;
photo wallpaper;
exotic: cork, metallized, quartz and others.
What can you say about each of them? Paper models are rarely used today. They are thin and wear out quickly. They practically cannot withstand mechanical loads. But the most important thing is under paper wallpaper A very flat surface is required. Therefore, the rough finishing of the frame house will have to be brought to maximum evenness, and this is another expense.
In this regard, other varieties are better. I would especially like to note vinyl-based coatings. They are thick, so they can cover small flaws in the walls and small differences in planes. They belong to the “washable” category, so such wallpapers can even be cleaned household products. Their disadvantage is that they support combustion, emitting toxic smoke.
Non-woven wallpaper does not belong to the “washable” category. They are quite thin, but durable. Subtlety is their disadvantage. Because any dark spot on the wall will be clearly visible through them. Therefore, the walls in a frame house will have to be painted in a light, monochromatic color if you decide to use wallpaper of this type for finishing.
Fabric varieties are not just fabric. This is a paper or non-woven base onto which textiles are glued. Such wallpaper breaks under the influence of even small loads, absorbs moisture and odors well, and is a collector of dust. As for the advantages, we must highlight their environmental friendliness.
Fiberglass wallpaper is the most durable of all those offered on the market. But they are also the heaviest, so special glue is required to glue them. Typically, wallpaper of this type is produced for painting, which is quite a serious advantage, because fiberglass wallpaper can be painted up to 15 times, using paint of different colors.
I would like to note two more varieties - quartz and liquid. The first is a non-woven fabric onto which quartz (aka sand) of different colors is glued. The second is plaster, which contains various decorative substances and materials. For example, glass beads, stone granules, metal or silk threads.
It should be noted that the technology for decorating walls with wallpaper has long been developed to the smallest detail. There are certain nuances for each model and type, but they are minor. Basically, wallpaper is glued using special compounds, which can be ready-made or in the form of dry mixtures.
Ceramic tiles
As in any home, this material is used in wet areas: toilet, bathroom and kitchen. Sometimes it is laid on the floor in the hallway. We can talk about tiles for a long time. Let's just outline some of its advantages and disadvantages:
high strength and wear resistance;
huge diversity invoice design front side;
big quantity shapes and sizes;
acceptable price.
These were the pros and a few cons:
can be laid on the surface with good adhesion, because the tile itself is a heavy material;
installation is not an easy process, so laying tiles trust professionals.
Lining
For the internal cladding of the walls of a frame house, the lining is one of optimal options. By the way, it can be used instead of rough sheathing. That is, it can perform two functions at once: roughing and finishing. And this is doubly beneficial.
This material is presented in four varieties on the market. So, for internal cladding it is better to use the “Extra” and “A” grades. For some office premises, material of a lower grade is suitable.
The only negative wooden lining– high fire conditions that this material creates. Therefore, there is another type on the market - plastic. True, this type of finishing is striking due to its artificiality. Plus, it has lower heat and sound insulation qualities. But the price is lower.
Video description
As for editing, it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times. Therefore, we suggest watching a video on this topic:
Flexible stone
A new unique material that exactly replicates the texture of the stone. In fact, this is just another wallpaper based on fiberglass. And sand painted in different colors or stone veneer is glued onto it. This type of cladding got its name only because it imitates stone, but its body is flexible. So with its help you can veneer walls with large differences, bends, bulges and depressions.
Decorative plaster
It should be noted that plaster, even in a frame house, in some cases is the most correct solution. Today, plaster mixtures are applied in thin layers, do not narrow the space of rooms and serve as an excellent finishing material. Particularly noteworthy are textured and decorative plasters.
Firstly, this material perfectly hides the joints of slab and sheet materials used for rough finishing. Secondly, the walls, lined with modern plaster mixtures easy to clean, even with a lot of water. At the same time, they do not get wet and do not peel off from the base. Thirdly, the plaster layer does not absorb odors and soot.
Other finishing methods
There are actually a lot of options. Let’s just list those that were not included in the article above:
decorative panels;
panels from MDF;
plaster decorative tiles in the form of stone and other tile materials;
stone tiles, here you need to be careful and choose thin material;
stucco.
How to finish the ceiling surface
In principle, finishing the ceiling in a frame house is no different from finishing it in a brick or panel building. Here, as there, suspended, suspended or suspended ceilings are used. In some cases, rough sheathing can become the basis of a rough sheathing. For example, if plasterboard was used as a rough finish, then it can be well puttied and then simply painted water-based paint. Or put wallpaper on it.
Tensile structures look great in a frame house. Here it is important to level the walls as much as possible.
Regarding hanging models, then there is a huge selection, starting from drywall, ending slatted ceilings. Even paintable polystyrene tiles will look good in such houses. It easily sticks to any material, especially plaster or wood. The tile breaks small differences in plane and joints between elements of the rough cladding. If you choose the right paint, this type of finish will not absorb moisture and will not collect dust on its surface.
Generalization
So, what generalization needs to be made regarding finishing materials? There are two types of finishing in a frame house: rough cladding of the frame with slabs or sheet materials and finishing, which is also finishing. From construction practice we can conclude that today large number companies give their preference to OSB boards, as the best option rough cladding.
In fact, OSB has proven itself to be durable, moisture resistant with great bearing capacity material. It is easily attached to the frame of the building using ordinary wood screws. Moreover, its surface has high adhesive properties. So OSB boards can be finished with almost any materials. In addition, oriented strand boards can be used for ceiling and floor cladding.
The variety of finishes is mentioned above. I just want to add - you shouldn’t convince yourself that a frame house is somehow different from an ordinary one, even a brick one. Here we are talking about interior decoration. Use whatever materials you choose or the designer suggests.
