Repair ceiling with his hands

The design of the room plays a vital role ceiling decoration, color, texture, height, and layered. For example, with high ceilings allow the free use of any color from light pastel colors to dark, with a variety of patterns. Well, if you want to allocate a separate section of a light spot on the bed in the bedroom or elsewhere - choose installation multilevel ceilings of plasterboard.


Before carrying out repairs to the ceiling with his hands to decide which ceiling eventually you want to get and what meaning it has to transmit.


Basically, all the ceilings set are divided into two types: suspended and plaster.

Plaster ceilings - all kinds of repair work on the ceiling with the performance of painting, whitewashing.

For suspended ceilings are suspended ceilings, plasterboard ceilings, panel, self-adhesive.

Before you begin to repair the ceiling with his hands, to dismantle the old one. For example, if the previous ceiling decoration was a whitewash, then dismantling it may take quite a long time, it's always messy.

New ceiling, in addition to the basic materials for the installation, and still requires additional materials in its decor: baguettes, sockets for chandeliers. Quite often decorated with stucco ceilings instead of the standard plastic or wooden baguettes.

But first, after removing the old finish the walls must be checked and lay the wiring. Decide on the design of the room and decide what type of lighting needed in this room, how many points will be on the ceiling, whether it is one chandelier or spotlights etc. This will determine not only the end of the room, but also the complexity of the work in the repair process.

Do not make repairs the ceiling with his hands in dark colors, if the ceiling height slightly greater than 2.5 meters (standard Khrushchev Kiev). Also, do not get involved in multilevel gypsum ceiling mounting, they will further reduce the visual perception of the height of the ceiling (unless it is part of the design concept.)

In addition to standard materials for ceilings, use special. For example, in recent years often are popular mirrored ceilings. A mirror can cover the entire ceiling, and only part of it. Also, the ceiling tiles can be spread, made from lining as wood and plastic. One of the most difficult mounting ceiling - suspended ceiling. To secure it will require special heating equipment.

But whatever ceiling you choose, be sure to pay attention to where in the house it will be. For example, the ceiling in the kitchen or bathroom should be a special moisture resistance compared with the ceiling in the bedroom, which basically are only decorative load.
