Finishing work. Plan for repair

Finishing work should start with preparation. It is first necessary to estimate the size of the room. To avoid errors, this is more convenient to use a tape measure. The results obtained are put on paper as a sketch plan showing the size and shape of the premises. Mark the location of its ventilation, communication devices, doors, windows, stairs, heaters, balcony or loggia, plumbing fixtures, built-in cabinets and pantries, fireplaces, etc. You can then move on to the next stage - making large-scale plan in which all element.d.lzhny be depicted in a reduced form, but with the correct aspect ratio. It may be necessary not only to tape, but also tailor a meter, which is convenient to measure all the ledges, niches, walls, windows and doorways, thick walls, the size of a balcony or loggia (if repairs rabot.d.lzhny affect them), built-in furnishings and etc. All received sizes should be carefully applied on the plan. To produce a large and regular scale plan will need graph paper, ruler, a simple pencil, eraser and a calculator. Plan to write better on a scale of 1 m by 1 cm, therefore, all dimensions should be calculated to at such a ratio. Before proceeding to the finishing work, you must prepare the room in which they will be conducted. To do this, roll carpets and clean them in the pantry, on the mezzanine or balcony (in the latter case you should make sure that the property does not get wet in the rain, it's best to wrap it in plastic). You also need to remove from the walls of shelves, stands for flowers, lamps, paintings and other decorations. It should also remove the fixtures from the ceilings, unscrew the sockets and switches on the walls, so they do not interfere with work. Bare wire outlets and switches should be closed with tape to avoid accidents. Also need to remove the curtains and cornices, which interfere with work and stained, and make the room colors. Then, to shift the furniture in the center of the room and cover it with newspapers, plastic film or cloth. At the time in the same room furniture can be taken to another. The following is to remove old paint: tear wallpaper, strip off the paint, remove the old linoleum, carpet or flooring, remove the tiles and remove the rails, plinths, frames, and in some cases and jambs. The final stage of preparation for repair include general cleaning. Need to very carefully remove the apartment: vacuum or sweep, wash floors and wipe the dust from the walls, ceiling, lights, etc. Then, should collect all the garbage bag and throw it away. Then you can start decorating. If you do a separate plan of the room for the convenience it can be done on a larger scale. Typically, a separate plan to make rooms with high workload: bathroom, kitchen, etc. If you intend to choose one of the lay-out rooms, each of them should also make a separate plan. Scheduling repairs, be sure to focus on some point, that will affect the successful completion of the work. This point may be the amount you can spend on the purchase of materials and payment for professional services. If there is insufficient funds repairs may well drag on indefinitely. Materials purchased for finishing rabot.d.lzhny be not only qualitative but also suitable for the price. Would be a shame if the main idea of ??repair can not be arranged because of lack of money. Therefore, to successfully complete the repairs and give the necessary flat gloss, you should carefully plan the budget. Most of the repair costs allocated for the purchase of decorative materials. It offers the opportunity to save if simplify finish, without compromising its quality. For example, there is no need to decorate walls and floor of a bathroom of marble slabs, if they can replace a good pottery. Of course, it does not replace the marble, but still be pleasing to the eye. The easiest option cost is based on simplifying maintenance operations. If some of them can be simplified, it will lower costs. Thus, traditional methods of finishing are cheaper than ultra. Standard equipment is cheaper than most modern and unusual.
