Wall-papers in the bathroom: damp-proof, in design and interior

Bathroom finishing is the final stage of the renovation. It is she who makes the room more spectacular and the style will come to him. It is not necessary to use expensive finishing materials, it is enough to show imagination using, for example, plastic panels, paint or wallpaper. The latter option will be the best alternative to the traditional tile, it will help to realize any, most extraordinary ideas. In addition, this method of facing the walls can serve not only as the main background of the room, but also as an addition to the general interior of the bathroom.

Let's consider what other advantages are possessed by wall-papers for the bathroom:

• moisture resistance;
• hypoallergenicity;
• safety and strength;
• easy care;
• Immunity to sunlight( do not burn);
• resistance to mold and all sorts of fungi;
• service life of up to 10 years or more;
• easy installation and dismantling;
• reasonable price;
• the widest range;
• fits well with other finishing materials.

The main drawback of wallpapers is that they can lag behind the walls. But this happens only in the event that in the process of work the technology of gluing is violated.

It can also be a problem if the wallpaper was picked up incorrectly. That is, they have a paper substrate that easily absorbs moisture. At the same time, the wallpaper glue is destroyed and as a consequence, the material itself deforms.

For small-sized bathroom wall-paper will approach, as it is impossible by the way. First, they do not steal precious centimeters of already small space. Secondly, with the help of the existing drawing, the area of ​​the room will visually increase. But it is worth considering that the drawing should be small, and the color scale - light.

This type of decoration material is not just a wall decoration for a bathroom, but a piece of interior, the quality of which must be impeccable. First and foremost, it is necessary that the conceived design idea be fully reflected. This is affected by the clarity of the image and the realistic color rendering of the wallpaper. Of course, the material itself must match. And once the wallpaper is designed for a room with high humidity, then their moisture resistance must be the highest.

If you want to transform your room for taking water procedures and at the same time to keep the wall covering, this is suitable for wall-paper intended especially for rooms with high humidity. Their main parameter is the resistance to moisture. Some manufacturers offer products whose moisture resistance is almost 100%. But it all depends on the type of wallpaper, the material of which more or less corresponds to this requirement.

Variety of wallpaper is amazing. Now you can even make an order for your own portrait, the main thing is that the quality of the sample for the future picture should be the highest. Photoprint is applied on absolutely any texture, including paper. Even such a seemingly completely inappropriate finishing material can be used for the bathroom. But in this case, the decorated surface is covered with glass, which is attached to the wall. All gaps are sealed with a sealant, which protects the wallpaper from any moisture ingress on them.

But let's still consider those wallpapers that do not need to be closed or covered.

They have a special coating that prevents the penetration of moisture into the texture and thus prevents deformation of the fabric. The wallpaper is resistant to water and easy to clean, if necessary. The price of this option is quite affordable.

A common solution when choosing wallpaper for the bathroom, but more expensive. They are produced on a polymer basis, which withstands high temperatures, steam and direct water ingress. Extend the life of this material is possible, if for its gluing use a special adhesive with a high level of adhesion.

Represents a waterproof film that does not penetrate moisture, with the back side of which there is a glue base. Their price is small, but the assortment is small. The choice is limited only to monotonous canvases or imitation of natural materials - wood, stone.

Durable wall paper with a fabric texture on an adhesive basis - perfect for a bathroom. They are quite dense, which allows you to hide small irregularities on the planes. The thickness and strength of the material are determined by the fibers in the composition. Good wallpaper in that they are easily pasted many times and are resistant to folds, which are formed when pasting.

In order not to be disappointed with the selected photo wallpaper, it is necessary to take into account some of the nuances before the direct purchase:

• As it has been repeatedly said, the moisture resistance of the wallpaper is the primary and important factor. This should be indicated by the marking available on the packaging material. A conventional sign in the form of a single wave, speaks of the stability of the wallpaper to moisture, but their mechanical effects will damage. A variant with two waves is suitable for rooms with high humidity, but in addition they can be washed, if contaminated, with a soft cloth. And the three waves are well-washable wall-papers for which even soft detergents are suitable.
• Also important is the composition of the wallpaper. The paper-based option, of course, is not suitable, except that you are planning to replace it in the near future. Better give your preference to vinyl.
• Choosing the future story for wallpaper, pay attention to the print quality and color resolution of the wallpaper.

Wallpapers with a photo printer - an excellent help in creating a new bathroom design. The variety of subjects makes it possible to obtain very interesting solutions. Sometimes such an abundance makes it difficult to decide on the choice of a picture, and given that the bathroom is a specific room and not every image in it will be appropriate, the choice becomes even more difficult.

Below we suggest you familiarize yourself with the options that are suitable for the bathroom:

The most common topic for this room, of course, is the sea. Palma, beach, sea, seashells, yacht or underwater world - all this perfectly fits in and moreover, it will give the desired psychological effect.

The theme of wildlife - diverse vegetation, animals or even insects, is also in demand among buyers.

You can use some stylistic direction to decorate the bathroom. Oriental style, for example, will help create images of stones, bamboo, waterfall. For the classic - you can use a canvas with elegant "curls" emphasizing the style, or a pattern with brickwork.

And you can combine wallpaper with any other finishing material, if suddenly you do not want to cover the entire room with a bright cloth. This, by the way, will significantly reduce the cost of the main material.

It does not take a lot of time and effort to wall the bathroom. This material is very simply and quickly glued, especially if the base is glued.

Consider this process in stages:

• to begin with you need to decide whether you want to decorate the wallpaper with the whole wall or part of it;
• , if necessary, level the surface, taking into account the regularity - the more equal the corners and walls of the room, the better and easier the material will lie;
• to prolong the life of the wallpaper can be impregnated prepared for gluing the plane with a water-repellent solution;
• if the process requires the use of glue, it must be special;
• are glued wallpaper as well as in any room - from top to bottom, and with a roller are smoothed out, expelling air bubbles;
• for the reliability of gluing go through several times on the joints between the canvases.

I would also like to note that despite the high moisture resistance of some types of photo wallpapers, it is not recommended to glue them with places of direct contact with water, in order to avoid exfoliation of the material.
