Hansard insulation as the first step towards living room
The finishing of the roof of the attic of the insulation of materials depends on whether such works were carried out outside the design at the construction stage. In the event that the roof was insulated earlier, it can be simply vested with lining, plywood or plasterboard, after completing the space between the material sheets and the frame with a thin layer of the insulation. For such work, rolled materials with a foil surface will be suitable, which will prevent condensate loss on the roof rods.
It also happens that the roof has not been warmed earlier. In this case, the interior decoration will be longer and time consuming. First, on the roof rods, the waterproofing material should be fixed, which will protect the room from moisture from entering the outside. Such a film is attached to the inner surface of the roof directly on the crate. It is best to fix the membrane with the help of counterbags.
Waterproofing film can be coated with insulation. It is advisable to use for these purposes a light porous material of a sufficiently large thickness. Scope roof should be insulated in several layers using rolled products. As for sheet and slab materials, they will not suit the roofs of complex shape and configuration, but they will be quite relevant in the event of finishing the nansard walls.
The heat insulation on the roof can be done in several ways. For example, if the rafters are located at a short distance from each other, select the insulation with a slightly greater width. In this case, you can put the material between the rafters and it is not fixed it. Well, if the rafters are lagging behind from each other by a significant distance, the heat insulating material will have to be additionally fixed to the surface of the roof with wooden bars.
If the roof is insulated with the help of mineral wool, it is necessary to wake her sheets with a steam insulating film, after which the cotton can be fixed on the inner surface of the skates. So as not to spend extra strength and time, it is better to immediately buy a heatel with vapor barrier. The minus of mineral wool is considered to be harder to accumulate moisture, with the result that the material rotates, it flies and loses its useful properties. Sometimes for the insulation of buildings, foam is used, however, it is not considered the best option, because in the event of a fire, very harmful toxins in the atmosphere begins to allocate. If the foamed polyurethane is used for thermal insulation of the roof, it is possible to save time and money, without separating the design of the waterproof membrane.
The insulation layer can be applied directly to the waterproofing film, but it will be better to provide a short distance between these materials. The air will penetrate into such a gap, not giving moisture to accumulate in the walls and rope of roof.
The wooden lamp on which all materials will be attached must be processed by the necessary impregnation, protecting wood from fungi and microorganisms.
The creation of a residential room on attic also provides insulation of the floor. Such a work is performed using a suitable bulk material, for example, crumbs or polystyrene foam crumb. By the way, the polystyrene foam not only has good thermal insulation qualities, it also waterproof and costs significantly cheaper than its analogues. Before pouring the heat insulating layer on the floor, it is necessary, as in the case of the roof, to lay a waterproof film. On top of the film, the structure of the lag is assembled, and after the floor, the insulation is poured. Then all this is covered with a solution of concrete, but for now the concrete is still liquid, the reinforcing stack is stacked on it. The final stages are the fulfillment of the screed and the finish decorative floor decoration.
Similarly, you can make the room not only warm, but also partially soundproofed. And good waterproofing will allow you to equip the kitchen or bathroom on the attic.
Types of materials for decoration of walls and the ceiling of the attic
The mansard finish in the house should begin with the choice of a suitable material. Modern manufacturers offer potential consumers a very wide choice of products, but the most popular materials for making attic are considered to be the most popular materials: lining, blockchauses, plywood and plasterboard. We will analyze these options in more detail.
Mansard finish clapboard
Cheap, easy to work and in caring material can be considered plastic lining. The color and drawing of such a cladding can be different, so you can use it to implement various design ideas. It can even be separated by the wall with plastic panels, since the installation of the material is simply simply and easily. However, there are clap and cons, the main of which is considered fragility. Such cladding does not endure strong physical impacts, it can crack from the blow.
It looks more comfortable and stylish in the finishing of the attic clap of natural wood. This material has a unique drawing, a beautiful natural texture and a warm shade. In addition, the tree is environmentally friendly and safe material. But its fire hazard, poor resistance to water and moisture are considered disadvantages of wooden lining. In addition, the tree can attack various parasitic forms of life, while insects and microorganisms are indifferent to synthetic materials. With these disadvantages, careful car care is helped, which includes periodic processing with special impregnations. But wood not only creates a special cozy atmosphere in the room, but also additionally insulates the room.
Facing the walls of Blochauz
It is possible to finish the walls and the ceiling inside the attic with the help of a blockhasis - material imitating natural wooden bars. Unlike natural wood, blockchauses are more resistant to negative weather factors, high humidity, temperature fluctuations and mechanical effects. Such a cladding does not crack over time, does not rot on the water and will not be damaged by the elder beetles. Installation of material on the walls is fairly easy, even a person who does not have such skills is capable of performing work after reading the detailed instructions.
There is a blockhasis and one small flaw. Because the details of the material have a significant thickness, they are a little cleaned the free space of the room.
Finishing of Mansard Plywood Wall
Plywood is a cheap and relatively simple material, which makes it possible to align even the most curves of the walls and create the basis for them for further decorative design. Sometimes Phaneur is used as an finishing finish, but this material itself does not have a special attractiveness. But the Phaneru is convenient to paint, cover with decorative plaster or drape with cuts of the fabric.
Plywood is often used in the decoration of a wooden attic when it is necessary to hide the differences in the level of the walls under the solid sheets of the material. In addition to low cost, such a cladding is easy to install, low weight, as well as environmentally friendly, because the main raw material in the production of plywood is wood.
But among the minuses of the material you can select the same characteristics that are inherent in wooden facing: fast fire in the event of a fire, instability in front of water and high humidity.
Mansard finish plasterboard
Plasterboard, as a material for interior decoration, is greatly popular. The reason lies in a set of advantages with which it possesses. Such advantages include low cost, low weight, fire safety, environmental friendliness, ease of work. But the main reason why drywall is so popular is the ability to create a variety of designs and forms from sheets of material, thanks to which any designer can embody the most bold ideas. In addition, the drywall surface is perfectly smooth, it is not necessary to carefully prepare to paint or plastering. Under the construction of such a material you can hide communication, and they will not spoil the interior of the room with their inappropriateness.
The lack of plasterboard is that it easily absorbs moisture. But even with this feature you can cope, buying a special moisture-resistant type of material.
The finish finish on plasterboard is very easy. Initially, it is necessary to stick the places of the connection of individual sheets, and when the putty dries, it should be polished with sandpaper, after which the surface will be ready for final decorative processing.
Mansard ceiling finish
The ceiling finish in the attic room is practically no different from the design of the walls, besides, in many types of attic the ceiling may generally be absent, and the roof slide will perform at the same time and the wall, and the roof.
At the decorative finish of the attic can be used by a stretch ceiling. It costs quite expensive, but it looks stylish and luxurious. Specialists in the installation of stretch ceilings can create structures not only with smooth, but also with a curved surface. A particularly spectacular kind of ceiling gives competently selected lighting. In addition, manufacturers of stretch films can apply any drawing, ornament or even a photo on their products. The stretch ceiling is very successfully combined with multi-level plasterboard structures.
