How to sew a house outside

When developing a project of a private structure, it is necessary to immediately decide what to do with a house outside. After all, the right decoration of the facade will make the house not only presentable, but also warm , therefore it is necessary to select with special care the materials for its warmth and decorative design. Without a good finish, the house will look ugly and sloppy, and also the will not be protected by from destructive external influences such as moisture, active sunlight, wind, thermal surges and . . .

the modern construction market presents a very large range of insulation and decorative materials, from which you can choose suitable for every taste and financial possibilities.

requirements facing facade materials

To prevent dampness in the house, it was comfortable and warm, and outside the house looked aesthetically pleasing, the cladding materials should meet the specified by the requirements.

Relying on them, and it is worth choosing the right option. So, facing should have the following qualities:

• Have a low thermal conductivity to keep heat inside the house.
• Possess vapor permeability - inside layers insulation should not form condensation.
• Differ moisture resistance - do not absorb and do not retain moisture inside the material.
• To have absolute or increased heat resistance - the sheathing must withstand high temperatures, under their influence, do not deform and ignite.
• Possess the inertness to chemical attack - do not change its characteristics when of similar substances hit .
• Being protected from the effect of microorganisms, does not serve as a breeding ground for insects and rodents.
• Do not decompose or lose physical properties under the influence of ultraviolet rays.

To be effective in all matters, needs not only to attach decorative material to the walls, but, following the technology, cover them with the entire system of layers, each of which will fulfill its role.

There are two main house insulation systems, and the choice will depend on what material is planned to be used for decorative finishing and from the used insulation. In one of their systems, the insulation is fixed directly to the wall with the help of glue, in the other - on the crate .

Sheathing of the house for plastering

When using insulation boards that have a sufficiently high density, for example, foam, fiber cement or tightly pressed glass wool in mats, which will be covered with plaster from the top, the is not needed for the .

Most often this principle is applicable to flat brick or reinforced concrete walls. In this case, the skin is made as follows:

• On the wall of the house, , at a height at which the heater will be installed, a metal profile holder is fixed, matched to the thickness of the selected insulation boards. The profile is displayed in a perfectly flat horizontal position.
• The walls are cleaned of dust and, before applying the glue, they are wetted with water for better adhesion.
• Further on insulation board is applied in advance diluted special adhesive.

• The first row of plates is mounted on the metal profile and firmly pressed against the wall.
• The next row is set to the first on the brickwork system - in the dressing.
• Having fastened two or three series of plates on the glue, each of them is additionally fixed with dowels.
• The continues to work on the same system to the very top. Then, the as well as is installed on other walls.
• When the layer of glue under the heater will dry, it is necessary to glue all corners of the building, window and door slopes with corners with reinforcing mesh. They are fixed to the same glue, its excess is removed with a spatula.

• After drying out the corners, the reinforcing mesh-serpyanku needs to be fixed on the entire of the insulated surface.
• The surface on which the canvas of a gray-haired woman will be stuck is smeared with a thin layer of glue. On top of it is reinforced mesh, smoothed with a spatula, and excess glue is also removed.
• When the surface dries well, the of its needs to be covered with polymeric plaster, layer 2 - 3 mm.
• The final stage will be the application of decorative plaster selected in the corresponding -style for the decoration of the building.

Sheathing of the house using curtains

Insulated facade system using curtains , can be installed in one or two layers. The position of the carcass bars will depend on how the decorative skin is planned to be installed.

• In order for the crate to be installed correctly, it is better to first mark the wall. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the width of the insulation mats.
• Then on the surface of the walls are mounted bars or metal profiles.
• If a wooden wall is sheathed, then before installing the heater, the vapor barrier film should be fixed to the entire surface of the walls.
• Next between the brushes the battens lay insulation mats. If necessary, they are fixed to the wall with anchor-fungi.

• heater is laid between the rails of the battens. After installing the warming layer, is stretched on top of it with a superdiffusion membrane, fastening to its on bridges of laths with staples of construction of stapler.
• The can then be fitted with decorative cladding material.

Another option for installing the is that the is done differently.

• The wall is also marked and along it at a distance of 40 - 60 cm fix the suspension. Their edge-holders should protrude from the wall to the thickness of the insulation and wooden bars, which will be fixed to them.

• These elements will be fastening not only for the bars, but also for the installed insulation.
• Insulation mats are marked and notched, in places where they will be worn on metal elements.
• Then the heater is mounted on the wall, and on top of it the diffuse membrane is stretched and fixed.
• Next in the hangers install wooden wooden blocks , tightly press the insulation against the wall and fix them in metal holders with screws.
• Above this system, decorative trim material is also installed, using fixed boards as guide rails.

Types of decorative plating

Modern materials allow you to make a brick masonry on the wooden wall or on the contrary - a brick house to transform into a wooden frame. To do this, use such facings as siding, made of different materials, wooden lining, block house, thermopanels, ceramic or stone tiles and others. It is necessary to know in advance how each of the cladding is fixed and how the - looks as a result of this will largely depend on which thermal insulation system for its select.

Clinker thermopanels

Clinker thermopanels - is one of the modern materials for insulation and facade decoration.

They have recently appeared on the construction market, and have already gained wide popularity. This is not surprising, since they have many positive qualities.

• One of the main advantages of the - this material performs immediately two functions: it is the insulation and decorative covering.
• Panels ideally mimic the brickwork, and are produced in different colors, so the can be matched to the for any style and taste.
• They give the surface an absolute neatness and aesthetics.
• This type of plating differs convenience and relative ease of installation on the wall.
• Thermopanels can be applied to the lining of any - wood or brick surface.
• The small weight of panels gives the opportunity to do without additional reinforcement of the foundation of the old building.
• Since the materials have a low percentage of water absorption, the facade can be washed from the slag with water under high pressure.
• The density of the panels on the is not not allows cold air to penetrate to the wall of the house.

Thermal panels have a polyurethane foam or foam polystyrene base, on which clinker tiles are pressed. The warm substrate increases the thermal insulation qualities of the panels in the two to four times , and the creates the optimum vapor permeable microclimate for the walls, allowing you to store the material from which the is erected house for a longer period.

• Clinker tile protects the insulation from external factors such as wind, precipitation, direct solar ultraviolet rays.
• Clinker panels very reliably fastened to the wall and able to serve without repair work 45 - 60 years, without losing its original appearance.
• Panels are assembled in a single plane with the help of existing locking joints( ridges and grooves), which provides a tight grip.

• Direct, wall thermo panels and corner elements are manufactured to them, which simplify the design of the corners of the building, making them absolutely neat, not differing from the general view of the walls.

• Thermal panels are reinforced with plastic guides, which do not allow deformation and mechanical stresses of the lining material.

Installing the

• Thermal Panels Before you begin installing the panels on the wall, you must perform the of its revision for various bulges, significant depressions and chips that can strongly place rapid mounting. Therefore, it is necessary to bring the surface of the walls into a perfectly flat state.

• When installing panels on surfaces that have large irregularities, for example, log walls, they are equipped with crate from a wooden beam.

• In this case, it is very important to correctly calculate the location of the elements of the crate to secure the panels successfully. On each of the panels to be fastened, must have at least three brushes in order to create the necessary rigidity of the plating.

The diagram clearly shows the fastening points to the wall or crate and the dimensions of the panel itself and the protruding castle ridges.

• After complete covering of the wall surface, the seams between individual tiles are filled with special trowel. This finally isolates the insulation from external influences, gives the appearance of the walls with a kind of natural brickwork.

Siding the house with the siding

Another one popular enough way to transform the facade is to install the siding. It is produced in various forms, imitating the wooden and stone covering of the walls.

It is made from different materials using two technological processes - monoextrusion or coextrusion .The first of these - is the molding of siding panels from a homogeneous mass, and the second is the manufacture of two-layer elements. The upper layer of the material is protective against external influences, and the lower is the base of the panel.

The really high-quality siding has a whole range of advantages:

• It is resistant to mechanical influences, such as bumps and scratches, while also having good elasticity.
• Material is safe in fire prevention, resistant to thermal surges. High performance of the material allows it to be used in various climatic conditions.
• Siding is not susceptible to the formation of colonies of microorganisms, damage to insects.
• The high-quality material does not render a serious exposure to ultraviolet rays, so it does not lose its original appearance for many years. The life of the siding is about ten years.
• Panels provide with robust protection for building walls against wind and precipitation.
• The material does not require any special care and the is good is given water jet under strong pressure. The surface itself does not absorb dirt.
• Saidi ng sp especially give any facade an aesthetic appearance. Numerous shades and the possibility of their combination open up great opportunities for design solutions.
• The material is not toxic, and means , is harmless to human health.
• In addition, compared to other materials, siding is easy to install and affordable.

Types of facade siding

Saidi ng for i facade cladding is made of vinyl, aluminum, thin steel, cement-cellulose pulp and wood based raw materials.

• Siding made of aluminum and steel is mainly used in industrial facilities, but it is also used for finishing private houses. The material is produced in a variety of colors, so it will perfectly decorate any facade of the house.

• The lining material made from wood fibers and bonding to their components is manufactured by pressing raw materials under high pressure and then covered with protective paints. This siding is also well suited for facing facades of private houses.

• Cement-cellulose version of facing material - most often used for facing the basement areas of a building.

• The most popular and affordable is vinyl siding. Its ubiquitous is used for finishing private structures, and it justifies itself with a long-term operating period and other positive qualities. Since this material is purchased and used more often than others, it should be considered in more detail.

Vinyl siding

This kind of siding is produced in the form of panel panels with perforated edges, through which they are attached using nails or screws. In addition to the , has an latch on the strips for interfacing adjacent panels with each other.

The material is available as one, two or three "boards", which simplifies and speeds up the installation of the siding on the wall.

The siding pattern can also be different. Often this is a habitual "vagonka", but other types, such as "shipboard" or " herringbone " are also gaining popularity. The surface of the material can simulate the texture and color gamut of different materials. The panels can be fixed in a horizontal and vertical position, but in order for everything to go well, it is necessary to provide in advance the positioning of the bridges .

Vinyl siding at the manufacturing stage is often coated with paint, which has in its titanium dioxide, which retains the surface in its original state for many years and gives any color pastel softness. It should be noted that the bright shades of the material indicate the absence of this component, so such coatings lose their original color much faster.

Assembly of siding

panels Installation work of the siding installation horizontally starts from the bottom of the house. Neighboring panels overlap overlapping and snap into place .Fasten the panel to the crate with nails on the top, through special holes.

. During installation, you should strive to calculate it so as to minimize the number of vertical joints. If the dimensions of the wall do not allow this( longer than the standard dimensions of the panels), use a special docking profile, placing it strictly vertically from the bottom to the top of the wall.

During installation of siding on the walls, installation and additional decorative elements are installed, which will give the façade complete - exterior and interior corners, soffits, tides, window and door slopes and , .

Block-house

Block house is made of natural wood and is a board with a semicircular surface. The house, lined with this material, imitates a log frame.

On the flat side of the block house board there are two longitudinal grooves, which are designed to relieve tension from the load and improve ventilation. In addition, for easy installation on the lower edge of the panel is a groove, and on the upper - spike.

The block-house panels are available in several standard sizes - from 3 to 6 m in length, from 20 to 45 mm in thickness and from 99 to 220 mm in width.

For the production of this sheathing material, mainly coniferous species, such as pine, spruce, larch are used. With proper processing and qualities, raw materials, this wood will last many years as a facade cladding. Wood by nature is endowed with excellent qualities, which the person began to use skillfully for the construction and decoration of housing.

What are the main advantages of this facade material:

- ecological purity inherent in natural wood;

- lightness and strength;

- resistance to high and low temperatures;

- easy to install;

- ability to "breathe" - this creates in the house a special comfortable microclimate;

- affordability in comparison with a single log.

The material is easily attached to the crate insulation system and is perfect for finishing not only the facades, but also the walls of the interior.

Installation of the

• block house The first thing to do - is to adapt the wood to the conditions in which it will be fixed to the facade. To do this, the block-house panels are laid out on a prepared substrate, for example, spread polyethylene, and left for a day.
• Each panel must then be completely covered with the first layer of antiseptic .
• After its drying, as a rule, shows all the flaws in the material, such as roughness and roughness. They must be removed with sandpaper.
• On the leveled surface, a second layer of antiseptic agent should be applied. On sale are similar tools, which already have in its composition of colorants - they will help protect wood against UV rays. If such a material treatment is used, it no longer needs to be painted or varnished.
• The block house is attached to the crate , starting from the bottom of the house wall. The first panel is laid up with a spike - this is done so that during the precipitation the water does not fall into the groove of the panel.

• In places where it is necessary to screw the board through, the screw must be recessed and disguised. As a composition for gluing such holes, you can use carpentry glue mixed with small sawdust. You can close the hole with nagel, the alignment of which is aligned and to shade the in the color of the panel.
• The installation continues with the "groove-spike" system throughout the whole plane of the wall. The material is fixed with screws to the crate .

• boards. At the corners of the panel, they join through the installed corner boards or through a cut under the angle of 45 degrees.
• If it is necessary to extend the panel, two its pieces are joined by a bar of the same width as the boards themselves. It is fixed on the back side, and then the joint is sealed with the mentioned mixture of glue and sawdust.

It should be noted that in addition, a metal and vinyl block house is manufactured, which simulates the shape, texture and color of natural wood. Its cost is usually lower than that of panels made from natural quality wood. The artificial material will last a long time and also decorate the facade well, but it still does not replace the warmth and beauty of the natural wood texture.

There are other materials for facing the walls of a private house - in the scale of one article to tell about all is simply impossible. Follow the publications of our portal - each of the types of facade finishing will be given special attention.
