External decoration of the glazed veranda. What material to sheathe the veranda from the outside

• Veranda ceiling finishes
• Modern dropped ceilings
• Clapboard for ceiling
• Inexpensive finish: wicker ceiling for the veranda

The veranda is a room where you can have a great rest, but for this you need to pay attention not only to the furniture, but also to the decoration.

Walls, floors must be made out with durable and stable materials that are not afraid of moisture, dust, drafts.

Veranda ceiling finishes

A lot, they all differ not only in cost, but in the method of laying, in appearance. Traditional finishes include painting or whitewashing the surface and wallpapering:

• whitewashing and painting is the easiest option, but it is also the most disadvantageous. Irregularities of the ceiling cannot be hidden with paint, that is, they are necessary preliminary work alignment, and this requires time and financial costs. In addition, the surface of the ceiling is traditional and boring. The situation can be corrected by using textured special paints, allowing you to give the ceiling an imitation of any material, but the cost of such paints is high;
• wallpapering is a traditional inexpensive option ceiling decoration, but it is not suitable for an open terrace, as the base of the wallpaper can swell from excessive moisture. To prevent this from happening, you can cover the surface with varnish, it will last much longer. There is an option to use special non-woven and vinyl wallpaper which tolerate moisture well.

For the veranda, you can use the most various materials, but most often inexpensive and practical. They are aesthetically pleasing, easy to install and replace if necessary. This includes not only traditional design options, but also modern materials. For example, suspended structures, which make it possible to insulate the ceiling, hold necessary communications.

Modern suspended ceilings

What is the best way to sheathe the ceiling of the veranda? For decoration, suspended ceilings made of plastic panels or rails, slabs can also be used.

Drywall in this case do not advise to use, as with increased moisture, its surface will be damaged.

For cladding terraces and verandas, the following options for suspended ceiling structures are used:

• cassette ceilings made of aluminum or galvanized steel. They are moisture resistant, durable, and attractive. appearance. Can be used when decorating terraces in a modern style;
• slatted ceilings during installation and maintenance can cause some difficulties, but outwardly they are attractive. They will allow you to create an unusual, stylish design ceiling. Rails are often used different colors, from them you can lay out a beautiful picture;
• mirrored ceilings in the decor are rarely used. A veranda with such a ceiling will look very bold and stylish, but you need to immediately worry about the environment, which is subject to great responsibility;
• tiled false ceilings are inexpensive, they are easy to install, but the appearance is a bit rustic. Despite this, plastic plates are often used for sheathing, as they are durable, lightweight, easy to replace, have soundproofing, heat-shielding properties.

Clapboard for ceiling

Wooden sheathing can also be used for the veranda. Natural wooden lining is perfect for decorating walls and ceilings, it will give any room coziness and comfort. This material is perfect for almost any style of design, the installation itself is not so complicated, but the coating is durable, reliable, resistant to many types of influences.

The advantage of lining is that it is attached to the surface using a thorn-groove system; in addition, self-tapping screws or nails can be used. When laying the boards, they are simply joined, the fastening snaps into place, which guarantees not only a snug fit, but also tightness. Such a ceiling will not be afraid of dust. The upholstery is made in shortest time, even gluing wallpaper on the walls takes more time than lining the ceiling with clapboard. It is best to place the boards towards the windows of the veranda. This will visually make the room much larger. It is not recommended to put planks across, as the veranda will become visually smaller.

You can fasten the lining on a special crate, between the bars of which the insulation fits perfectly. Electrical wiring can also be placed under the surface of the skin, which will be completely invisible from the outside. For this, special corrugated protective pipes must be used. After the laying of the board is completed, it can be treated on the outside with a special deck varnish that is resistant even to constant 100% humidity.

I want to talk about the features of the cottage veranda, that is, an unheated room, which is located at the entrance to the residential part of the house. In most cottages or dachas, in front of the entrance (most often from the back of the house) to the hall or hallway, there is a glazed veranda - a kind of summer gazebo, which you can get into without going outside. On such a veranda they often arrange winter Garden or simply use this room for relaxation.

This room has its very important feature: it is not heated, which means that it can be prone to dampness and, as a result, the appearance of fungus. Therefore, the main attention when finishing the veranda should be paid to avoid this, otherwise in two years you will have to do a complete overhaul.

So let's start from the ceiling. It can be sewn up with moisture-resistant plasterboard, but it is best to close the entire ceiling PVC panels- wide siding, which is huge in building materials stores. Plastic should be, of course, and ceiling plinth.

It is better to paint the walls with facade water-based paint, which is easy to clean and, if necessary, quickly painted in a different color, or bark beetle plaster can be applied. If you want to create home comfort, you can stick wallpaper, just choose not paper, but vinyl or other thicker ones. At the same time, take better wallpaper, which are suitable for painting, if desired, you can paint them several times. In addition, when gluing, be sure to add 0.5 liters of PVA glue to a pack diluted in water, then neither dampness nor temperature changes will be terrible for the wallpaper.

And finally, the floor. I do not advise you to make a wooden floor or lay a laminate - the wood dries out from temperature changes, and the laminate swells. It is best to choose high-quality, beautiful and expensive linoleum. There is another option - lay the tile. At the same time, it is better to choose a large size and put it practically without - such a floor will look uniform and very advantageous. Choose a plastic skirting board for the floor, matching the color of the main range.

I would also like to note that it is advisable to put a metal or plastic door from the veranda to the street. Of course, we all know that wood is more environmentally friendly than other materials, but wooden door has a tendency to dry out.

All about verandas: veranda decoration

Looking forward to summer and don't forget the flowers! Let it be one of the business bouquets from the Kingdom of Flowers store. It is a pity that I did not know about this store until March 8 - a bouquet for the holiday would have been cheaper. Soon I will definitely raise the topic of flowers in the interior.

In this article, I would like to draw your attention to the features that sometimes require the decoration of the veranda. For the most part, this room is considered unheated. Basically, it is located in front of the entrance to the central part of the house. In some houses, the veranda is glazed, which allows it to be converted into a winter garden or a kind of summer gazebo. Due to the fact that the veranda is not heated, the owners can later have big trouble due to the appearance of dampness. It is known that dampness sooner or later allows the fungus to settle on the walls.

To avoid this, it is necessary, very carefully, to approach the issue of selecting materials for repairing the veranda.

Basically, the decoration of the veranda starts from the ceiling. Many try to sew it up with moisture-resistant drywall. Undoubtedly, this is a very good building material, but in our case, PVC panels (siding) are better suited.

Recommended for walls water-based paint. Such walls will make it very easy to take care of them in the future. By the way, if desired, the walls can be very quickly repainted in a different tone. "bark beetle" will help transform the verandas beyond recognition. With the help of wallpaper, you can create the comfort of a home on the veranda. Only in this case it is necessary to choose not paper, but vinyl and any others that are thicker. If you opt for wallpaper for painting, then if desired, their tone can be changed repeatedly. Little advice, before sticking wallpaper, add 0.5 liters of PVA glue to a pack of wallpaper glue. After that, neither temperature drops nor dampness will be terrible for the walls.

Let's get to the floor. Experts do not recommend laying laminate or making a wooden floor in cold rooms. From constant temperature changes, the laminate will swell, and the tree will dry out. In this case, high-quality and beautiful linoleum is best suited. Tile is another option. If you stop your attention on the tile, then it is advisable to choose a large size. If such tiles are laid without seams, the floor will look uniform. Such a decoration of the veranda can be very advantageous. The skirting board must be selected to match the base material.

To the veranda in country house was cozy and beautiful, it must be remembered that this is a seasonally residential or unheated non-residential premises and not every material is suitable for interior decoration of the veranda. In winter, the room will be humid, and if you use non-moisture resistant facing materials, then in two or three years the repair will have to be done again.

Interior decoration and interior of the veranda

most practical and budget option will be finished with PVC plastic panels or moisture resistant drywall.

Special attention it is necessary to pay attention to the issue of finishing the walls of the veranda. Usually, from below the walls are lined with modern finishing material - plastic wall panels from PVC. The surfaces of the walls from panels to the ceiling are covered with moisture-resistant paint. Interior designers recommend choosing gentle, light pastel shades, in this case, curtains or blinds on the veranda are easier to organically fit into any interior style.

The tile, on the contrary, will not lose its wonderful properties and original appearance in such conditions. If used as floor covering tile, then it is better to use large tiles, as they are easier to install. As a result, if the seams between adjacent tiles are reduced to a minimum, or removed altogether, a smooth, visually uniform surface is obtained.

After final finishing floor, you need to install plastic skirting boards, since they are considered the most durable compared to wooden skirting boards and are not afraid of moisture.

After that, we proceed to the design of the veranda. I want to emphasize that this is a very responsible task - choosing the style of the veranda. Best Option is a style as close to nature as possible, such as rustic, ecological or ethnic. Important in the design of the veranda are its attributes, a variety of plants, often used as a green hedge.

Not less than important details The interior of the veranda, along with the decoration and style of the room, is furniture, usually forged or wicker furniture. It is also decorated with colorful frills and pillows, curtains and napkins.

For a veranda, the most suitable is round or oval table. At classic version the design of the room assumes the presence of a lace tablecloth on the tabletop, located on a substrate of a different color, visually, the patterns on the tablecloth will look more voluminous. A wicker or wooden rocking chair will be a chic furniture attribute of a classic veranda, you should always remember this.

Wall and ceiling decoration of the veranda

When all preparatory work completed, it's time to think about the interior of your veranda. You can trust its development professional designer, but you can cope with this task yourself. Finishing options for open and covered terraces enough. Consider the most popular of them.

Finishing with PVC panels

The most budgetary option for finishing the walls of the veranda in last years are plastic panels. This material is resistant to high humidity and temperature fluctuations. In addition, it is quite easy to install and clean. Helps you imagine how interesting PVC can be interior decoration verandas photo taken in one of the hardware stores.

The disadvantages include perhaps low environmental friendliness and fragility - it is very easy to break it by inadvertently pushing a chair or accidentally hitting the wall with your knee.

As a frame for PVC panels, wooden slats with a section of 30 * 20 or 30 * 10 mm or metallic profile for drywall installation. When using wood, it must first be treated with an antiseptic.

Helpful advice! On the walls of the veranda facing the street, it is better to use wooden slats for the crate. Profile fasteners can create "cold bridges", which will significantly reduce the quality of thermal insulation. But for not too smooth walls it is better to use a profile on special suspensions.

• The slats must be fixed perpendicular to the direction of laying the panels. So, if the plastic is placed vertically on the wall, then the slats are stuffed horizontally with a step of no more than 50 cm.

Important! Decorating the walls of the veranda with panels with a pattern is carried out from left to right. You can start the installation of plain panels from either side of the wall.

• When the crate is ready, it is fastened in the corner of the room with nails or self-tapping screws. start profile or mounting bracket. The first is used if the adjacent wall is finished with a different material, and the second will allow PVC panels to be joined together.
• Then the first panel is inserted into the guide profile so that the wide mounting flange is directed towards the installation.
• To fix the panel to the crate, you can use metal holders, or you can simply screw it to the rail with a self-tapping screw.

Important! If you are not using holders to mount the panels, do not overtighten the self-tapping screw. Otherwise, the panel will "lead".

• We insert the next panel so that there is no gap left, and fasten it.

Remember that PVC panels are subject to thermal expansion. To compensate for it, it is necessary to leave a gap of 2-3 cm at the top and bottom of the wall and close it with a plinth.

MDF - cheap wood imitation

Another popular finishing material is MDF panels. They are somewhat stronger than plastic, but less resistant to moisture. It is not worth using this material on open verandas, but for closed ones it is quite suitable.

MDF panels are installed in the same way as plastic ones.

Wooden lining - a classic of the genre

Listing the materials for finishing the veranda, it is impossible not to mention the most traditional of them - wood. Most often this is the so-called lining.

Lining - sheathing board, up to 22 mm thick with special grooves that facilitate installation and docking.

This material is sheathed not only on the walls, but also on the ceiling of the veranda. After treatment with antiseptics, the lining will last you up to 20 years. Long talk about the advantages of wood over artificial materials not necessary. there is only a delicious woody smell that will be felt on your veranda long years.

The choice of wooden lining

First of all, it should be said that according to the method of production, the lining is divided into spliced ​​and solid. In the first case, the highest quality pieces of wood are joined in a special way. Despite the fact that such material looks excellent - there are no knots, cracks and other puttied defects on it - for finishing open veranda he doesn't fit. With increased humidity, cracks may form at the splice point, which will greatly spoil the appearance of the finish.

In addition, the lining is divided into 4 classes. The most expensive and high quality - the "extra" class - is almost always spliced. But the material of class A, B or C, as a rule, from solid wood. On such a lining there are knots and potholes. Most often they are treated with putty during production.

Important! When purchasing material, be sure to unpack it. Very often, defective or low-grade planks are found in the middle of the pack.

Preparation and installation of lining

Preparation for installation comes down to treating it with an antiseptic and adapting the material. It is necessary to leave the lining in the finished room for several days, and then cover it protective composition.

When using lining, the veranda is finished with wood in almost the same way as with PVC or MDF panels. The crate is done according to the same scheme, but there are several ways of fastening:

• Fixing with galvanized nails. This is the easiest way. The nail is simply driven into the center of the board, and then the hat is sunk with the help of a dominator.

1. Self-tapping fasteners. In this case, a hole about 10 mm deep is drilled in the board from the side of the spike. The diameter of the drill should match the diameter of the screw head. Then we fasten the lining to the crate, drowning the self-tapping screw in the hole, close it with a dowel and grind it. As you can see, the method is more time-consuming, but the attachment is not visible.

• Fixing with a stapler. In this case, using a pneumatic or mechanical stapler, mounting brackets are driven into the installed board.
• Fastening with clamps. A clamper must be attached to the back wall of the groove of the first board. Then the board is attached to the wall with nails or self-tapping screws, and only then the kleimer is fixed. On the next board, the clamper is again installed. It is inserted into the groove of the previous one and the kleimer is attached to the crate.

Important! With the help of kleimers, only the veranda can be finished inside.

When the installation of the lining is completed, you need to close the corners and joints in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bdoors and windows with a corner and proceed to finishing. To give the wood a shade, colored varnishes or stains are used.

Important! Before starting work, coat the forcing cut with the selected varnish and let dry. Sometimes after drying, the color becomes completely different than when applied. It will be very difficult to remove the varnish that you don’t like from the walls. For the same reason, do not immediately buy a large amount of varnish: buy a little, try it, and if you like it, buy more.

You need to apply varnish from top to bottom: first we cover the ceiling, and then the walls.

Exterior finish

So, we examined the main options for finishing the veranda from the inside. How to line it on the outside? In principle, you can use lining here, but is it worth it? Despite all kinds of impregnations and antiseptics, a tree that is constantly exposed to negative impact environment, quickly loses its decorative effect. This means that you will have to re-treat annually.

If you still decide to choose wood, remember that you can only fasten the lining outside horizontally with the spike up. At the same time, it must be fixed in two rows - from the side of the spike and from the side of the groove.

Siding

In recent years, siding has gained particular popularity. Even if the house is bricked or covered decorative plaster, you can easily choose a shade of siding that fits perfectly into the ensemble.

The most commonly used variety of this material is vinyl siding. It owes its popularity to a fairly affordable price, good performance and ease of installation.

For facades, horizontal siding is most often used with lock connection. We will consider the technology of its installation in more detail:

• And again, finishing the veranda with your own begins with the installation of the crate. For these purposes, you can use an unedged board 30 mm thick or a bar 40x50 mm. On the entire surface of the wall we fix it vertically in increments of 40-50cm. In addition, we install additional bars around the windows, in the corners of the house and along the upper and lower edges of the future finish.
• Below we install the starting profile and fasten it to the crate with self-tapping screws. Make sure that it is strictly horizontal.
• Now we mount corner profiles in internal and outside corners as well as around windows and doors.

Let's start cutting and installing panels. Cutting vinyl siding is fairly easy. This can be done with metal shears, a hacksaw or a jigsaw.

Important! Vinyl is highly susceptible to thermal expansion. Therefore, each panel should be 5-7mm shorter than the wall.

• We bend the panel a little in the center and insert its edges into the grooves of the corner profiles.
• Align the panel and start its bottom edge in starting bar.
• We fix the upper edge of the panel with self-tapping screws through the prepared holes.

Important! You can not press the screw tightly to the crate. The oval fastening hole is designed to allow the material to move freely along the self-tapping screw with temperature fluctuations. The distance between the cap and the crate should be 1-1.5 mm.

• We also insert the next bar into the corner profiles, snap it into the groove of the previous one and fasten it to the crate.
• Before installing the last plank, we mount the finishing profile according to the level, cut off the required width of the siding strip, snap it into the previous plank, and simply insert the free edge into the finishing profile.
• Here detailed instructions, for the installation of this material:

That's all. From the outside, your veranda looks perfect.

The content of the article:

Finishing the veranda is a set of measures aimed at its improvement. A veranda is called an extension adjacent to the wall of the house. It refers to the type of summer unheated premises and can be indoors or open version execution. Depending on the type of extension, the interior decoration of its walls is carried out. In addition, the configuration of the veranda and its exterior design should fit well into the exterior of the entire building. With simple skills construction works, you can finish the walls of the veranda with your own hands.

The choice of material for finishing the walls of the veranda

The materials chosen for finishing the walls of the veranda must meet practical and aesthetic requirements. A feature of their choice is the lack of heating in the annex closed type and serious impact climatic conditions on the design of the open veranda. Therefore, the material used for decor should not only be visually attractive and consistent with the design, but also withstand exposure to the sun, high humidity and temperature fluctuations.

Sheathing the walls of the veranda can be done by many finishing materials, which are used for indoor and outdoor work:

• . It belongs to the classics of the genre, as it is the most popular material for wall cladding due to its environmental friendliness, excellent appearance and pleasant aroma emitted by natural wood.
• Plasterboard sheets (GKL). For verandas, their moisture-resistant version is suitable. Such products differ from conventional plasterboards in their in green. The material is environmentally friendly, easy to install and easy to process in numerous ways. It can take almost any shape, and this is important when decorating walls. Such cladding is used in closed verandas.
• . This material imitates natural wood. It is quite durable, but wet environments are not for it. Therefore, MDF can be used for sheathing the walls of a closed veranda.
• PVC panels. It is a durable and inexpensive moisture resistant material. It is represented by a rich assortment of various shades and colors, can have a different texture, is very easy to use and not particularly whimsical to care for. Suitable for wall cladding of extensions of any type.
• Siding panels. They are practical and affordable. They often imitate wood and come in a variety of colors. The material does not rot, is resistant to temperature changes and fire, is easy to clean and durable. Most often used for exterior finish walls on the veranda.

Preparatory work before finishing the walls on the veranda

If the veranda has glazing, it is better to finish its walls after installing thermal insulation under the windows. In this case, the room can be used almost until the onset of frost.

To insulate a closed veranda, you can use mineral wool or polystyrene foam. To begin with, waterproofing should be fixed on the walls, as it can be taken waterproof polyethylene film. It is overlapped by 150-200 mm, the joints of the sheets must be glued with metallized tape.

After that, it is necessary to install a crate on the walls. The material for it can be wooden beam pre-treated with an antiseptic. The cross section of the timber should be selected according to the thickness of the insulation, and the size of the cell of the crate should correspond to the width of the insulation.

Then the insulation, in particular mineral wool, should be packed in a waterproof material and laid in the cells of the crate. Wrapping the insulation will protect it from moisture and keep it functional for many years.

After that, a foil membrane should be fixed on top of the insulation on the crate and its joints should be glued with adhesive tape. In the process of insulation, it plays the role of a heat-reflecting screen. On this, the thermal insulation of the walls can be completed.

Technology for finishing the walls of the veranda

Having chosen how to sheathe the walls on the veranda, you can start finishing them. Below we will consider several of its options.

Finishing the walls of the veranda with PVC panels

This method of decoration is inexpensive, but it can make an ordinary room cozy and interesting. The panels are not afraid of high humidity and sudden changes in its temperature - they are not able to cause deformations of this material. Panel installation is easy and hassle-free.

The disadvantage of the material can be called its fragility, although at the present time it is possible to purchase "armored" panels, the cost of which will be twice as much as usual. Therefore, after installing such a cladding, you should carefully move chairs towards it or lean against the wall. To minimize the risks, there is such a construction trick: the first plank of the panel lathing is mounted at the level of the knees, the second - the pelvis, and the third - the shoulder.

The frame for plastic panels is made of wooden slats or a profile that is used when installing GKL. Reiki can have a section of 30x10 or 30x20 mm, before use they should be treated with an antiseptic.

The fastening of the laths of the crate should be carried out in a perpendicular direction relative to the installation of the panels. For example, if the plastic on the wall needs to be placed vertically, then the rails for its fastening should be stuffed horizontally on the wall, the step between them should not exceed 50 cm.

After making the crate in the corner of the room, you need to fix the mounting corner or the starting profile with screws or nails. The corner will allow you to dock the panels with each other. The starting profile is installed if the adjacent wall will be sheathed with other material. To be installed on the ceiling fixing bar for plinth.

The first panel is inserted into the guide profile with a spike towards the mounting side. Then it needs to be fixed on the crate using a self-tapping screw with a press washer. Then the spike of the next PVC panel must be firmly inserted into the groove of the previous one and fixed. All other trim panels are mounted in the same way.

Due to the fact that plastic has thermal expansion, a gap of 20-30 mm should be left at the bottom and top of the wall to compensate for it, masking it with a plinth.

Important! Panels with a pattern when sheathing walls are installed from left to right. Plain panels can be mounted starting from either side.

Finishing the walls of the veranda with MDF panels

This material is quite popular among adherents self-finishing. MDF panels are stronger than plastic, but not resistant to moisture. Therefore, they should only be used on closed verandas.

The installation process of MDF panels is similar to the previous one. Only in this case, their fastening is carried out using special metal devices - clamps, which are fixed on the material with small nails or a construction stapler. This must be done through the guide, it will prevent damage to the edge of the panel.

Finishing the walls of the veranda clapboard

Clapboard is called wooden board thickness up to 22 mm, having special grooves, with the help of which the installation and joining of the cladding elements is carried out. If the material is treated with an antiseptic, its service life can be extended up to 20 years.

According to the production method, the sheathing board can be solid or spliced. IN last case pieces quality wood connected to each other in a special way. Such products do not have flaws in the form of knots or cracks, but are not suitable for sheathing the walls of an open veranda.

The reason for this is the formation of cracks at high humidity in the joints of the board, which spoil the appearance of the finished cladding. The most expensive lining is almost always spliced. It has an “extra” class, and products of classes A, B and C are made from solid wood.

Before finishing the walls on the veranda with a sheathing board, the material must be left to adapt in a closed room for several days, and then the lining should be treated with a protective compound. Mounting the board on the walls of the veranda is similar to installing PVC and MDF panels.

There are several ways to attach it:

1. The simplest of them is fasteners using galvanized nails. In this case, they are driven in along the center of the planks, and the caps are sunk into the wood with a punch.
2. Fixing the sheathing board with self-tapping screws is more laborious, but at the same time, the attachment points are not visible. A hole is drilled in the board from the side of its spike, having a depth of about 10 mm. The diameters of the drill and the caps of the fasteners must match each other. Then the bar is screwed to the lath of the crate, and the screw is recessed into the hole and closed with a dowel on top. The place of fastening is then polished.
3. The board can be attached to the crate using mounting brackets. For this, a pneumatic or mechanical construction stapler is used.
4. Another way is fasteners. wood paneling kleimers. At the same time, it is first attached to the rear wall of the mounting groove of the first bar. Then it is nailed to the wall and only then the kleimer is fixed. The same kleimer is installed on the second board, its spike is inserted into the groove of the previous plank and the kleimer is fixed on the crate rail. With the help of such fasteners, only internal wall cladding is performed.

After completing the installation of wooden wall cladding, you need to close all the corners and joints near the doors and windows with a corner and proceed with the finishing of the coating. To give its surface a certain shade, you can use colored varnishes and stains for wood.

Before painting the walls on the veranda, it is recommended to apply the selected varnish to a sample of the material and allow it to dry. It happens that after drying, the shade of the coating changes, and it is quite difficult to remove a layer of varnish that does not correspond to the plan. Therefore, it would be better to buy a small container with a paint composition for testing, and if it suits, purchase the rest.

If there is a need to leave the planking wood in its original form, a colorless glaze containing an ultraviolet filter can be applied to it. It will help prevent fading of the walls of the veranda from exposure to the sun.

Exterior decoration of the walls of the veranda

It can be done with lining or siding. wood cladding in this respect is somewhat capricious. Despite the treatment of its elements with various antiseptics, when exposed to precipitation, sunlight and seasonal temperature fluctuations, the skin can lose its original appearance if it is not taken care of.

Therefore, every year it will be necessary to carry out various measures to preserve it: impregnation, staining, etc. But if the choice to use wood has already been made, it is important to remember that horizontal mount boards of the outer cladding should be done up with a spike, fixing them in 2 rows on each side of the lock connection.

The exterior decoration of the walls of the veranda with siding is more good option. This cladding got its name in the 19th century. Planed and painted boards were fastened at an angle to the plane of the wall in such a way that each subsequent horizontal element slightly hung over the previous one. This position of the boards allowed the water to roll down the cladding without delay. Nowadays, siding performs two functions - protective and aesthetic.

Most often, vinyl siding is used for exterior wall cladding. Its popularity is due to ease of installation, practicality and affordable price. Externally, the material looks like plain board, which is used in the cladding of the facade.

However, vinyl will not lose its appearance even after a couple of decades, despite seasonal temperature fluctuations, bitter frosts and heavy rains. In addition, dirt does not stick to this material and maintenance is minimal - only wash off the dust from the lining with a garden hose. Due to the huge number of shades, siding can be matched to any exterior of the house, it will perfectly fit into the overall ensemble everywhere.

Installation of vinyl siding panels is carried out in the following order:

1. First you need to make and install a crate for facing the walls of the veranda. This will require unedged board 30 mm thick or a wooden beam with a cross section of 40x50 mm. It needs to be fixed in vertical position with a step of 400-500 mm over the entire surface of the walls. Additional wooden blocks should be installed around the windows, at the corners of the veranda, along the upper and lower edges of the future sheathing.
2. From the bottom along the perimeter of the walls in strictly horizontal position it is necessary to fix the starting profile to the crate using self-tapping screws.
3. After that, you need to install corner profiles around the openings, as well as in all corners of the building. The lower edge of the corner profile should be 5-6 mm below the level of the starting bar.
4. Then you should cut the panels. Vinyl is easily cut with scissors, hacksaw or electric jigsaw. Due to the fact that vinyl panels have thermal expansion, each of them must be made shorter than the wall by 5-7 mm.
5. After that, the prepared panel must be slightly bent in the center, and its edges should be brought into the grooves of the profiles located at the corners of the wall. Then the panel should be aligned and its lower edge should be brought into the starting profile. The upper edge must be fixed with screws to the crate through special holes.
6. Tight pressing of the screw heads to the panel material is unacceptable. The oval shape of the mounting holes is specially designed for free movement of the material relative to the screw part of the fastener with changes in air temperature. There should be a distance of 1.5 mm between the screw head and the crate.
7. The next panel must also be inserted into the corner profiles, snapped into the groove of the previous element and fixed to the wall sheathing.
8. Before installing the last panel, it is necessary to level the finishing profile on the crate. The panel is then cut to the required width and snapped into the previous skin by simply inserting the free edge of the product into the finishing profile. This is where the wall cladding of the veranda with siding ends.

A beautifully designed building, located near the house or in the garden, always serves as a great place to relax and have a casual conversation. Neatly and tastefully executed interior decoration is able to create a feeling on the veranda home comfort and become an excellent designer decoration.

• MDF for the veranda
• PVC panels for decoration
• Wooden lining for a stylish interior
