With what to begin repair of a bathroom?

Very long in our family we could not venture this step. Everything began that we somehow took some clean sheets of paper in the evening, a roulette, measured length, height, width of a bathroom and counted the area of the room, decided that we will impose walls and a floor with a ceramic tile, we will paint a ceiling with a front water emulsion, we will replace a bathtub and a sink, we will put new mixers, we will pick up the corresponding accessories. Then presented, what color there will be our new bathroom, what light to us is necessary, what mirror we will hang up and where. After that, in some days, having an approximate picture, got all necessary, finding the materials corresponding to our plan, the equipment and accessories in shops.

Clarification of walls and ceiling from an old tile (if that is available) - very dirty and dusty work was the second step in our repair of a bathroom. In the Soviet houses of a wall of a bathroom were often painted with paint - it needs to be deleted completely – to beat off mechanically, to remove solvents, the hair dryer as in a consequence, the gluing mix with a tile on it will not keep. Now can easily sigh - the first, dirtiest stage is finished. Pure walls the ceiling shpatlyuy is processed by a primer, and, we carry out an electrical wiring, in advance having been defined where the mirror will hang and to stand the washing machine. Further we do a marking of a horizontal and a vertical by means of a plumb or vertical level.

The third stage of repair - replacement of a water supply system, the sewerage, a strut (a pipe between floors). Do not save on this operation as old pipes, as usual, can have on a consequence an effect at the most inappropriate moment. Do not forget to make a floor waterproofing that water did not filter to neighbors when you do a coupler on a bathroom floor. For this purpose it is necessary to cover joints between a floor and walls waterproofing solution, and also to execute a waterproofing on all area of a floor in a bathroom – in case water will go too much a bathroom, or will break through (God forbid), a pipe.

Now you can start putting a bathroom in order, i.e. to put a tile are you do if are able, or the master tiler. It is better to begin a tile will put from that wall along which to stand a bathtub, during the work you will soil a bathtub solution less.

If you want to make front part of the bathtub closed that, for the purpose of economy, the floor under a bathing tile can be not spread. Are going to change a door in a bathroom - it is necessary to make it now, and then to continue to put that wall where there is a door.

Having stopped stacking a tile on a floor and walls, on perimeter of a ceiling we mount a plinth. We paint a ceiling with waterproof emulsion paint, it turns out beautifully, it is possible towards the color of the put tile with any shade. It is checked, in the future humidity on a ceiling does not accumulate and the ceiling does not darken is one of options over time how to make a ceiling. Alternative to this option — installation on a ceiling of plastic panels or a stretch ceiling. Now safely start seal of seams.

Here practically repair of a bathroom is also finished. There were finishing touches - fill a bathroom with accessories: we establish a sink, we hang up on a wall a mirror, on a ceiling - the lamp. Here having so worked, the beautiful bathroom turns out. I wish all success under repair, and the most important to venture it!

Do not hesitate to tell about the experience in this case, it precisely will help someone.
