Popular ways to align the surface of the walls with your own hands
During repair, two methods of leveling the surface of the wall are most often used: the so -called “dry” plaster – plasterboard slabs and plaster with building mixtures. Often the choice of alignment method depends on the further purpose of the room and the method of subsequent wall decoration, and, of course, on your financial capabilities. For example, if it is a bedroom, and you want an impeccable result by 100%, then it is best to use drywall slabs. It is worth noting that in the premises having an increased humidity (bathroom, toilet, kitchen, laundry. D.) you can also use drywall, only moisture resistant. In size, drywall is 2.5 or 3m height, and the width is usually 1.2m.
If we talk about the installation of drywall plates, then two main methods are distinguished. Когда стены имеют не слишком значительные перепады по плоскости и их высота не более 3 метров, то монтаж листов производится на специальный строительный клей (сухие смеси). The glue is evenly distributed along the sheet in the form of “Lepuh”, the height of which, depending on the drops of the plane of the wall, on average from 1 to 7cm. By the way, this technology allows you not to “steal” the area of the room.
But when the walls have more than 3 meters in height, they use a technology in which the installation of a metal frame is required. Such a frame is made of metal profiles CD and UD. It is advisable to lay mineral wool inside the frame, although this is not necessary, but gives the best sound – and thermal insulation. Then sheets of drywall are mounted on the frame.
