Bathroom Repair with Your Hands

Repair of the bathroom in the apartment requires special attention. The bath is the wettest place in the apartment, therefore it is necessary to use only waterproof materials for repair.

Before you begin to repair the bathroom you need to clear the room of furniture, water pipes, in case they have become unusable, and most importantly remove the bath itself. Without male power, you can not do. Before you start work, you must de-energize the bathroom and turn off the water. If the pipes are old, and even steel, or cast iron, then here you need to help the Bulgar.

The next stage will be the installation of new pipes. The most reliable are polypropylene with welded joints. But the metal-plastic, which are connected with clamps, can lead to leaks.

After they put new pipes, they need to be hidden, that is, to make some kind of construction, where these pipes could be hidden. For this purpose, it is possible to use a moisture-resistant gypsum board. Or you can do without a design. Then you will need to hide the pipes in the wall or floor, which must be shtroblit.

Now we are preparing the walls in order to start spreading tiles on them. For this purpose, gypsum board or plaster is also suitable. Of course, the first option is easier, and it will be faster in time. Ceilings in the same way.

But to level the floor you will need to use a concrete screed. Then it is necessary to impregnate concrete with a special impregnation for waterproofing. In the store, the choice of such impregnations is enormous.

If necessary, we change the wiring. In order to save money, you can purchase spare parts on the Internet or newspaper ads, for example, a newspaper from hand to hand Ufa.

Next, we begin to spread the tile on the walls and floor. It should be remembered that when laying the tile, then the voids between the base and the tile should in no case be. This applies to both the walls and the floor. Wipe the seams between the tiles so that the grout enters completely to the full depth.

The next stage is the ceiling. The material for the ceiling must also be moisture resistant. For this purpose, suitable plastic panels, or stretch ceilings, as you can make a ceiling from the aluminum profile. Using these materials, the ceiling must not be leveled in advance. Well, the cheapest way is to level the ceiling with putty and paint with a special paint for the ceiling.

After all laid out, we begin to install a bathroom and arrange furniture.
