If you have completed the construction of a frame house, then you still have to think about its interior decoration. Only in this way will you be able to achieve coziness and comfort in the premises.
Technology
Such work takes place in two stages, the first of which involves rough manipulations, while the second - finishing. Initially, the preparation of the surface of the walls, ceiling and floor should be carried out, such measures mean removal of the old coating, as well as preparation and leveling of the surfaces. Finishing is the finishing stage, when surfaces are subjected to wallpapering, installation of cladding materials or painting.
Selection of material for roughing
Exterior decoration of a frame house may take several months. Interior decoration is carried out in the same period. Having visited a hardware store, you can pick up material that will correspond to the allocated budget and certain characteristics. For roughing, the most commonly used OSB or drywall. The advantage in these cases is the ability to hide the imperfections of the walls using flat sheets. These canvases can be installed on untreated or curved surfaces. Using GCR, you can form complex design compositions. In a short time you can make wall cladding, preparing them for further work.
Cons of using GKL and OSB for rough work
If you purchased a frame house that has just been built, you can do the interior decoration with plasterboard yourself. However, this material has some drawbacks, which will be expressed in a decrease in the area of the room when installing sheets on uneven walls. If there are any, then first you have to mount the frame system, which will be somewhat removed from the base. This also applies to OSB, which has a more impressive thickness. If you use this material to align the ceiling, it will be very difficult to do without additional devices for lifting the paintings.
However, sometimes the solutions described are the only true ones.
Pros and cons of using wallpaper
Considering the options for interior decoration of a frame house, you can pay attention to traditional wallpapers, which are presented in the modern market in a wide variety, they can be paper, acrylic, vinyl, fiberglass and non-woven. Each of these finishes has its positive and negative features. For example, paper wallpapers, although they have a low cost, are extremely unstable to the effects of low temperatures and moisture, and even without this they are very short-lived. You can use them as a temporary solution.
The interior decoration of the frame house, the photo of which is presented in the article, can be carried out using vinyl or acrylic wallpapers, which are resistant to mechanical damage and are durable. The latter are characterized by durability and moisture resistance. Owners of private houses who want to diversify the interior, choose a non-woven version of the coating, which is made of foamed vinyl, it can be used as the basis for further decorative painting.
The worst enemy of frame wooden houses is fire. If you want to make your home more fireproof, you should buy fiberglass wallpaper, which, along with mechanical strength, is flame resistant. Moreover, they can be successfully used for staining.
Positive and negative lining features
Quite often, recently, the interior decoration of the frame house with clapboard has been carried out. This is no coincidence, since this material is able to bring home comfort and a natural look. Wood will give the walls a higher sound and heat insulation. Depending on the available funds allocated for repairs, you can choose a lining that will belong to a particular grade.
There will be no defects on the surface of the elements if you prefer an extra-class lining. Consumers who are not afraid of chips and stains choose the finish of grade A. The material is indicated by grade B if there are several cracks and knots on one of the slats.
Considering the materials of the interior decoration of the frame house, you can choose a plastic lining, which you can install yourself, since it is quite easy to install. This finish is low cost and not exposed to harmful bacteria. With the help of plastic slats, it is unlikely to achieve comfort in the room, and the artificiality of the material will be visible immediately. In terms of sound and heat insulation characteristics, PVC is inferior to models made of natural wood, but it can be installed in rooms with a high level of humidity.
Carrying out wall decoration with drywall
The technology must be followed when finishing the frame house. Interior decoration, as mentioned above, may include the use of drywall. With its help, you can hide any irregularities, which eliminates the time-consuming leveling of the base. The paintings are fixed on a metal frame, which speeds up the manipulation. The resulting free space between the main wall and the sheet can be filled with insulation material, as well as lay electrical wiring and other communications there.
The light weight of drywall will not create an additional load on the ceiling, so you can build arbitrarily complex geometric structures, which sometimes are multi - level ceilings.
Initially, the master will have to markup, strengthening the starting UD profiles with screws, then the wiring is laid in special plastic boxes or corrugated pipes made of polyvinyl chloride. Drywall sheets must be laid on the profile and fixed with metal screws. The fastener cap must be recessed 1 mm. Even an inexperienced craftsman can finish the frame house. Drywall interiors will be completed in a matter of days. Carrying out these manipulations does not imply that the master has special skills.
The seams formed between the sheets must be filled with putty, the tool will need to get rid of excess material by aligning the seams. After that, a fine-grained grinding sandpaper enters the course, which will allow you to align the joints in order to prepare the sheets for finishing.
Using OSB boards
The installation technology of such paintings is almost no different from that used for plastering the walls. The only difference is the impressive weight of the OSB. For this reason, you will need to use more reliable and durable fasteners. To fix the paintings to the wooden frame, use spiral 50 mm nails. At the joints, the fasteners are installed in increments of 15 centimeters. Centimeter gaps should be left along the edges of the walls, but the distance between the plates that do not have a connection should be two millimeters. If you plan to use OSB to form a floor covering, then it is necessary to stack the sheets, placing them perpendicular to the lags.
The installation of sheets does not consist of the entire decoration of the frame house. Interior finishing involves surface treatment with sandpaper. After this, the plates are varnished in 3 layers, each of which must be well dried. Such a coating acts as a protection of the structure of the material from moisture penetration. If you decide to cover the surface of such a rough foundation with plaster or paint, then you must first apply a primer.
The advantages of using imitation timber in the interior decoration
Over time, imitation of timber becomes more and more popular, especially when compared with lining. The premises after finishing work are warm and aesthetically attractive. All the advantages of this material are associated with quality characteristics, which are expressed in the absence of shrinkage. Over time, the lamellas do not crack, as they are equipped with grooves to relieve tension inside the products. During installation, time and labor costs will be minimal. The pluses include the fact that such a finish is not afraid of exposure to ultraviolet rays.
If you select certain types of wood, then they will not be adversely affected by moisture. The cost of such a material is significantly lower compared to a full profiled or glued beam. And if you carry out a quality installation, the appearance of such walls will almost not differ from a natural log house. The interior decoration of the frame house with imitation of timber is not afraid of the effects of high and low temperatures.
The main disadvantages of imitation timber
Despite the fact that the products are processed by various anti-combustible compounds and antiseptics during the manufacturing process, they do not cease to be fireproof. During operation, you have to process the wood once a year, otherwise it will become covered with cracks, change its color, and when exposed to fire, it will light up. If the interior decoration of the frame house with an imitation of a beam will be done, then the wood will have to be taken care of during the entire period of operation, covering the surface of the walls with protective agents and paints and varnishes.
It should be noted one more minus, which is expressed in expensive components as internal corners, decorated elements and external consumables. If you do not want the walls to resemble lining, then you need to use panels whose width begins with 90 millimeters.
Cons imitation pine timber
If the interior walls of the frame house will be finished with imitation of timber, it is important to choose the right kind of wood. For example, pine has some disadvantages, among them resinousness, which indicates an increased fire hazard. Before carrying out installation work, despite the fact that in the factory the material was treated with flame retardants, it is necessary to apply a fire-fighting composition. It is worth remembering that the smell of pine is retained for a very long time, after a while this can begin to annoy. That is why this feature must be taken into account when decorating living rooms.
Conclusion
The interior decoration of the frame house with OSB plates is most often done when there is no shortage in free space. Otherwise, it is best to choose drywall sheets.
