Question from Andrei on the cost of finishing door slopes
The content of the article
Geography
To answer your question, you need the following source data:
- The region of your residence. If the cost of materials by region differs insignificantly, then the cost of work can vary greatly even in one area, depending on where they will be produced - in a large city or small village.
- The need to dismantle old slopes, replace or install insulation.
- The parameters of the slopes are primarily their width. Also, the price increases if they are of non-standard shape (for example, arched).
In addition, it matters who you choose as the performer. If this is a company for the manufacture of windows and doors, then the decoration of slopes, as a rule, is included in the total cost of work and makes up a small part of it. But this is subject to order and the door itself in the company. If the door is already standing, such work is usually more expensive.
Moscow rates
For an example, I will quote the prices of a Moscow company operating in the middle price segment. The cost of finishing slopes with insulation, depending on their width per linear meter:
- 50-150 mm - 600 rubles;
- 150-270 mm - 700 rubles;
- 270-350 mm - 900 rubles;
- 350-500 mm - 1100 rubles;
- 500-600 mm - 1200 rubles;
- 600-750 mm - 1300 rubles.
Rates are given taking into account the cost of basic and consumables, their delivery to the place. The main material used is plastic sandwich panels. They are more reliable and durable than conventional PVC wall panels.
If in your question you meant exactly PVC panels, then finishing will cost you less, but experts do not recommend this material for finishing such "loaded" zones. It tolerates temperature extremes, humidity, the influence of sunlight, but does not have sufficient mechanical strength - it can crack or deform from accidental impacts.
Returning to the cost of decoration. It can be seriously reduced by entrusting the work to a private master. Well, the cheapest option is self-decoration (seeDIY door slopes) Unfortunately, sandwich panels are a sheet of large area, which will be many on one doorway, and it is almost impossible to buy sliced pieces of the right size.
But they can be replaced with laminated PVC panels - they are stronger than usual. And to prevent deformation due to mechanical stresses, the space between the slope wall and the lining must be filled with insulation or polyurethane foam.
