Types of material for cladding

Formerly as wall cladding dwellings used only a small amount of materials for decoration, and it was easy to select the material. Now the abundance of materials is so great that sometimes even experts think about it, making its choice.
In this regard, we consider it necessary to provide a list of the main finishing material, which is currently used by specialists for wall cladding of residential premises. All the proposed types are united by one, their installation can be completely done with your own hands and then the construction price will be much lower.

Attention: Nowadays, it’s not so common to make a toilet separately, many builders make combined bathrooms. Their area is much larger. Therefore, you should not navigate only not large rooms.

PVC plastic panels

Plastic panels for lining the toilets have been used for this work for a long time and found their fans. But not for any room they can be applied.
Let's take a closer look at this material:

  • The panels are mounted on a frame that will pick up at least five cm from each wall of the usable area;
  • But this can be considered a virtue. It will be possible to level the wall. Moreover, the preliminary processing is not very necessary. It all comes down to simply cleaning and priming the surface;
  • Toilet lining plastic panels makes it possible to immediately carry out additional insulation. This will reduce heating costs;
  • You can always hide all the plumbing pipes. This is especially true for the Khrushchev;
  • This material is made from environmentally friendly components, therefore it will not harm your health;
  • The lining of the toilet with panels and the bathroom perfectly tolerates temperature extremes and high humidity. Installation in rooms without constant heating is allowed.

Attention: when buying this material, the instruction should be fully studied. Panels can tolerate different temperature conditions. Carefully study this question. Give preference to trusted brands. You should not make a purchase of non-known manufacturers. Such material can be made of low-quality plastic and produce a harmful odor when heated.

Drywall and Tile

Drywall is often used as wall cladding. The material is good, it has excellent physical, technical, operational performance.

Drywall has a lot of advantages.
It should be noted that the installation of such material eliminates many problems during the surface finish of the walls:

  • The first advantage: the walls, which are finished with drywall, will be smooth. And you will not need to do preliminary finishing. It will be enough to remove the previous coating layer;
  • Second: the surface of the walls becomes quite smooth. It will be quite easy to lay tiles here. And not much solution will go.Moreover, this can be done on glue;
  • Third: drywall is well insulated from noise by itself. But it will still be possible to carry out additional insulation, which will reduce heating costs;
  • However, he also has its drawbacks, like any material. The main disadvantage is that this material must be installed on the frame, which indicates a partial decrease in the volume of the room;
  • You will always hide pipes and other defects. Using this material is not difficult;

Attention: When installing drywall, you need to choose the right sheets. If you are finishing in the bathroom, then it is worth using only moisture-resistant material. In a room with high temperature conditions, it is also necessary to take heat-resistant. Pay special attention to this.

Lining

This option in some cases is quite attractive. Only such a cladding may sometimes not work. But it is up to you to decide.

So:

  • It is an environmentally friendly material that, when heated, can produce healthy smells;
  • Installation is done on the frame, and the material itself is quite bulky, so it is not suitable for decoration of a small room. This applies mainly to old buildings;
  • Such a finish in itself serves as a heat and sound insulation, but if you still use insulation, then there will be no price at all.

Attention: If you will do the installation in a room where there is constant high humidity, then it will not be possible to do the treatment of the material with antiseptics, this can harm your health.

findings

Of course, you need to remember about paint with wallpaper, but both of these materials can be attributed to the finish, and not to the materials for cladding.
So:

  • Wall paneling is used quite often. Today, the range of cladding panels has grown significantly since plastic has appeared on the market.
    Especially plastic panels are now deservedly considered the most popular. They have water-repellent characteristics, which is the main reason for their use as a cladding in rooms where the humidity level is elevated.
  • MDF decorative panels are not inferior to plastic panels, but they even surpass them in certain characteristics, for example, in price and environmental friendliness. Both of these materials have excellent qualities and properties, especially the hostesses like their practicality.
    There is no need to do anything special to clean them, just wipe them with a damp cloth.
  • You can praise different materials for cladding for a long time, but only wood since ancient times is considered the best finishing material any premises. Properly selected tree, if it is beautifully laid, looks elegant, stylish and presentable, in addition, in this room you will feel more comfortable and cozy.
    In that case, if the house is not built of wood, by lining the inside of it, for example, with lining or plywood, you can provide it with a harmonious, unique interior.

The most beautiful finish, according to professionals, is decorative plaster. It should be noted that with the help of finishing decorative plaster you can create a truly excellent interior.
Note that this kind of cladding is almost indistinguishable from stone trim. However, it should be noted that now this type of facing material is considered the most expensive.

    For some reason, fashion has gone into the decoration of toilets and bathrooms, it is imperative to hide communications behind various panels. In fact, this is not the best solution, which can turn into a pretty strong blow to the wallet. Firstly, behind the panel, we may not see a water pipe starting to drip and eliminate the problem in time. Everything will end with a doorbell in the early morning of a neighbor from below who has a chic expensive repair and has poured from the ceiling. Therefore, in my opinion, it is better if pipes, especially those under pressure, are always in front of our eyes. And if you put the panels, then systematically look for them!
