How it is possible to make external furnish of a balcony or a loggia the hands

Almost all tenants suffer from a shortage of living space. There comes a time when you need to urgently get a separate room for rest. And sometimes you want new sensations in the form of a winter garden. And before you is an unused area in the form of a balcony. It remains only to insulate this future premise, make the exterior look attractive and inside to glaze and to heat.

We calculate and make estimates for construction and finishing works

Initially, you must imagine what you want to receive.

If you want to get just a closed room - this is one amount of work.

And if you need a warm room - this is another amount of work.

But in any case, you have to measure your balcony or loggia, i.e. it is necessary to make linear measurements, determine the specific type of work, coordinate bids with contractors (for the work that you can not do yourself), purchase construction materials with a margin of 10-20%.

We face a specific task - how to improve the appearance of the balcony or loggia.

Here we will provide variants of the outer skin of the balcony   and consider the types of finishing materials.

Exterior finishing of the loggia or balcony with PVC siding

Thanks to its good performance, siding (vinyl) very quickly won the finishing market in Russia.

Due to practicality and durability, resistance to temperature changes, moisture resistance, resistance to burnout and fire - siding is an excellent finishing material.

Moreover, its installation is not as complicated as it seems.

If you carefully read the instructions, watch videos, then such a work is possible and amateur.

But if the hands are not growing from that place or there is no desire - call the professionals.

Progress:

-Make a measurement of each plane of your balcony;

- Buy the necessary amount of siding, starting and finishing laths, plastic outer corners, if the length of one siding is not enough for the length of your balcony, you need to purchase an ó-shaped butt bar;

- buy material for the crate, which will later be attached to siding (crate can be metal or wooden);

- Buy screws and screws.

After the crate is made, the starting point is fixed at the lowest point of the balcony.

Important! Correctly, strictly horizontally to set the starting strip, the whole design will turn out to be a curve if you have set the start strip unevenly.

Important! To make the installation with screws it is necessary not to twist the metal screw to the end, the fixing is made in special holes located on the siding.

Important! All external work must be done only with a safety belt.

After installing the start, all subsequent strips are checked by level and fixed with screws.

At the end, the top band and the corners are placed at the top.

Exterior finishes, to facilitate the work, you need to produce before glazing the balcony.

Exterior decoration of the balcony or balcony with plastic panels

Plastic panels are not inferior to siding in their properties, since the basis of both building materials is plastic.

A plastic is very practical and durable, has high moisture-proof, heat-resistant properties.

The service life is long and the price is not very high.

The process of installing plastic panels is identical to the installation of a siding.

Experts advise choosing a plastic at a price more expensive, so under the influence of the sun, such plastic can retain color for a long time

In the video clip you can see the whole process of finishing the balcony with plastic panels.

External furnish of a loggia or a balcony with a profiled sheet

Metal profiled sheet has very good qualities, as this material is durable, not exposed to external climatic conditions, it can create an elegant look for your balcony.

Fastening is also carried out on a pre-prepared crate.

External furnish of a loggia or a balcony by metal siding under "log" or "shipboard"
