It is the facing of the facade of the house that plays a decisive role in the formation of the first impression on tastes and the level of living of the hosts, their preferences and love of the order.
However, this is not only stylish "clothing" for your home, but also excellent hydro, heat and sound insulation. Therefore, it is necessary to strive to ensure that the new coating has become not only the decoration of your home, but also his reliable defender.
Each of these species has its advantages, and you need to choose, based on their requests. It's no secret that every species has its advantages and disadvantages, as well as recommendations for use.
To date, the building materials market offers a rich list of various coatings. Choosing one or another type, as a rule, is guided by a number of standard factors:
The times of total deficit have long passed, when the top-on-day question was early or late before the owners of the houses: "Where to get the materials?". Modern consumers, slightly discouraged by the unprecedented wealth of the range, on the contrary, are concerned about the contradictions of a different kind: "What is the option of facing the facade to choose?".
A natural stone - Beautiful and elite option facade facing. With it, you will not only give your dwelling with reliable protection from weather surprises, but also you will seek a respectable owner with a sophisticated taste.
Stone facing will turn any, even the most modest house, into a small medieval castle, and the service life of such a coating and its protective properties have the best performance among the entire spectrum of construction and facing materials. Granite, marble, dolomite, limestone and sandstone enjoy the special favor of Russian consumers.
The disadvantages of this type of facing facade include the high cost of stone, as well as its fair weight, which gives an additional load on the foundation and facade of the building.
In such a situation, there are two solutions - to produce partial facing of the facade of the building with natural stone (for example, only the lower or basement) or resort to the use of artificial stone.
Fake diamond - This is an excellent alternative to an expensive natural stone, in appearance as close as possible to the original. Many owners of private houses are inclined to this kind of facade facing for several reasons.
You can make a house not only with high-quality imitation for the traditional views of the natural stone, but also under the use of which, by virtue of the properties of natural stone, not permissible on each facade (seven, buttone, etc.).
Another advantage of artificial stone is the simplicity of its installation. This is especially noticeable on the angular parts of the building, when it is enough to use special angular elements for ideal external angles, in color and texture identical with the main material.
Facing facade country house Artificial stone will help you to forget the creams and uneven joints, about problems with a sharp material. And, of course, the facade facing with artificial stone will cost him the owner several times cheaper compared to installing natural stone.
Facing (decorative) brick Traditionally enters the top five most sought-after building materials for facing the facade of the building.
Due to its decorativeness, enviable strength, high protection properties, environmental friendliness and relatively affordable cost, brick are used both in the largest Russian metropolisms and in a distant outback.
Allocate 4 main types of bricks for facing the facade of the building:
Every year becoming increasingly popular clinker and ceramic brick.
Unlike white silicate brick, a red ceramic brick consists of clay and functional additives and is a special firing. Ceramic brick varies depending on the size, the presence of emptiness, as well as insulating properties.
Facing the facade of the country house implies the use of one of three varieties of ceramic brick - facial.
Clinker brick is created on the basis of special types of plastic clay and undergoes a burn at elevated temperatures. As a result, it has several advantages over ordinary bricks (less water absorption, increased strength and frost resistance).
Given the fact that the facade of the facade of the building brick carries an additional burden on the foundation, requires great efforts in the elimination of various kinds of cracks and chips, and decent brick analogues appeared on the construction market.
We are talking about ceramic and clinker tilesserving high-quality imitation of natural brickwork. The facade ceramic tile is glazed and unlawed, with the back side of the "tail of swallows" (longitudinal rifrance and minor protrusions). Such a structure of the tile helps to achieve maximum connection with the base.
It should be remembered that ceramic tiles are not best options Facing facade of buildings with thin walls and weak thermal insulation.
For example, in the houses from the Water Couple Slakoblock passes from the rooms outside, as a result of which it settles on the inside of the tile coating. This may lead to the lagging of tiles (if condensate freezes when exposed low temperatures) or other types of damage tiles.
Therefore, you will need additional funds to buy a waterproofing layer. This disadvantage is deprived of a single firing clinker tile, having a small ability to absorb moisture. Some worse than these indicators of double firing clinker tiles having a more porous structure.
Wooden lining - It is a traditional trimming material for houses of a frame type. Facing the facade of the country house with clapboard is recommended to produce horizontally - in this case, the moisture will move much better. The outdoor cover of the house requires the use of lining with a thickness of 20 to 22 mm, with a humidity indicator from 15 to 18%.
Materials with a smaller thickness can be stolen and deformed from absorbed moisture, and not dried lining risks perhaps, which will cause the need to re-dry.
In addition to the traditional cladding, its high popularity uses her a variety called Block House (The convex facial side of which mimics the rounded log or profiled timber).
Facing the facade of the country house by a block house will give your dwelling a view of a real wooden log cabin, and only a sophisticated specialist will be able to solve your "secret".
Vulnerable face of natural wood It is its susceptibility to atmospheric influences, as well as - all sorts of pests. To solve the problem, it is necessary to apply a layer of varnish (toning or colorless), make painting go to treat it with impregnates (special solutions protecting wood from the action of fungus and insects).
Do not forget also before facing the facade of the house of wood about its impregnation with antipirens having fire prevention properties or applying fire paint.
Under all the rules, the facade of the wood will serve you not one ten years and will give a lot of pleasant impressions, because in the matter of choosing the type of facade facing, natural wood is out of competition. This is a successful combination of ecology and home comfort, sophistication and loyalty to traditions.
Siding, which has long become a favorite for the facade of the country house facade in America and Canada, confidently conquers and russian market. Excellent mechanical stability, color storing and shape under the scorching sun and light frosts, affordable price And simplicity of installation - these and other dignity of siding fell to domestic consumers.
Given that the service life of the siding panels is from 50 years and above, it can be called one of the practical and durable materials.
Unlike some other types of facade cladding, siding does not require painting and impregnation with special mixtures. Holes in siding panels provide natural ventilationAnd his external side protects the house from moisture and other atmospheric influences.
.
As a rule, siding from metal and aluminum is used in the conditions of the city. Vinyl, acrylic and base siding is perfect for a country house, cottage or a small cottage.
The choice of the facing type of facade is a responsible and difficult step, which will depend not only by the external attractiveness of your home, but also heat and safety.
Facade finishes are quite different. The choice can affect the price, and you should also pay attention to the material of the framework of the frame, think about energy saving and do not miss the design.
About the fact that the facade is separated and will be discussed in this article. Several factors may affect this, first of all, the fulfillment of the foundation, if it is powerful, then can withstand the load.
But it may be necessary to make a strengthen. This is a serious question.
Before buying a material, you must first figure out which requirements we put forward to this work and then think than to separate the walls of the facade. After all, the frame can be made of high-quality material and insulation has been carried out.
But there are also rooms to which additional insulation is required and then attention should be paid to completely different materials. Therefore, when choosing, in addition to aesthetics, we still pay attention to the following things.
So:
Based on the above indicators and the choice should be made. In retail there are many materials for finishing, which can be applied.
Look at the design. Pick up the photo and decide on the appearance.
ATTENTION: Do not dwell on exactly one type of material. After all, you can also combine. Separate for example walls and base.
Apply different materials.
This type of finishing is quite often found. The basis here is either cement mortar or decorative plaster.
When performing work, this material often use figures of various types, and this can be done completely with their own hands. There are several options for the manufacture of this material.
So:
ATTENTION: Decorative plasters, it is the cheapest finish material. With their help, you can simulate almost any more expensive material.
You can give any color and structure.
After plastering the surface, it is painted and here it should be said that it is better to give preference to acrylic material, it is more resistant to temperature drops. Provides high-quality coverage with good vapor permeability.
Types of finishing of facades of cottages and other premises with this material are large enough. This is probably the strongest and durable material.
Yes, and the price is quite different, natural material can be used, but if it turned out to be high in the price, then artificial substitutes can be used, and they will not be given to naturally naturally.
So:

The final stage of the construction of the house is the facade cladding, and here many owners get an important question - what material is better and cheaper to purchase? Ideally, the choice of material for the outer decoration should occur even at the design stage of the house. Today, the market for finishing materials presents a huge range, therefore everyone can choose the option to taste and its wallet. However, in the process of choice it is worth considering several important factors: the facing material should look aesthetic, improve the exterior of the house, to harmonize with the territory. Secondly, it should reliably protect the design from the adverse effects of the medium, have high sound and thermal insulation properties. Thirdly, the choice of finishing should proceed from the type of building of the building.
The option of combined cladding at home.
One of the most common, inexpensive, simple materials for outdoor facing Buildings are decorative plaster. The composition of various modern plasters is very different, and consequently, the properties and type of the surface obtained will also be varied.
Pluses of finishing material:
However, if applying decorative plaster It was performed with violation of technology, the following problems may appear: cracking, peeling and appearing spots on the surface. To reduce the risk of such problems, entrust plastering the responsible and experienced master.
There are many stucco compositions that allow you to get a different surface and appearance. Consider them in more detail.
As can be seen from the name, this material has a mineral foundation that consists of marble (granite), lime, portland cement. It has a porous structure. Thanks to the components, mineral plaster has very high operational properties:
Various colors of mineral plaster.
When installing it is worth considering that mineral plaster grasps very quickly - for 15 minutes, because all work with it should be carried out quickly and into one stage, otherwise the surface will be a curve, wavy. The specified feature of plaster can be used in their favor - all work on applying will be done as soon as possible, but for this you need to hire a competent person.
Mineral plaster is not suitable for the facing of the newly erected buildings, because when shrinking can give cracks.
It is produced on an aqueous acrylic basis. Main advantages:
However, there are some shortcomings:
The texture and variants of the colors of acrylic plaster.
Another high-quality type of facade plaster is silicate. The basis of the composition is silicate glass, because the material has such operational properties:
However, if you have a question: what material is better and cheaper to choose to facade the facade of the house, then the silicate plaster will not be the best solution due to its high cost. Also small color palette, speed of drying, the need to apply special primer. It should be borne in mind that silicate plaster is combined not with all insulation.
House lined with silicate plaster.
Also very high quality, durable facing material, which has almost no minuses. Created on the basis of silicone resins, therefore has unique performance: durability, strength, resistance to environmental impact, the ability to use with any insulation and building materials, minimal tendency to pollution and simplicity of cleaning. In addition, silicone plaster is easy to apply.
The only drawback of the material that stops many from the purchase is a high price.
Elasticity of silicone coating.
By right, siding can be called the leader in the facing materials market. It has gained such extreme popularity thanks to low cost, simplicity of finishing, modern and stylish appearance. Siding is called narrow panels from a different material length from 2 to 6 m, which are attached to each other using the "Christmas tree" profile.
Siding allows in a short time and at minimum cash costs not only to bind a new building, but also renovating the old building.
Main advantages:
Country house lined with siding.
At the same time, it is worth considering the disadvantages of this type of cladding (many minuses depend on the specific siding material):
Siding can be manufactured from such materials:
The vinyl siding is the undisputed leader of the shopping, because we consider it in more detail.
And all types of siding is the most budgetary, has a large range of colors, besides, it can mimic the texture of a tree, other materials. It has all the advantages of siding. But before you decide on the purchase, consider the disadvantages of the material:
Vinyl siding for the facade of the building.
Polyvinyl chloride also produces base siding. It differs from the vinyl thickened wall of the panels (up to 3.5 mm). This material is an ideal solution for facing the lower floors of buildings.
Application of baseline siding for lining a residential building.
When choosing vinyl siding, pay attention to the components in the composition and color-thanks to the presence of titanium dioxide (TiO2) material acquires fury to burn apart.
And since this is a white substance, then all the colors with its addition have gentle, pastel, soft tones. Therefore, from buying a saturated suding, an unnatural shade is better to refuse - a high risk stumble upon a low-quality coating that will soon burn out in the sun.
For facing works, a special brick is applied, which is called facade, facing or facial. Depending on the composition, the appearance and properties of the brick are different, but by common features for this facing material can be called:
Different kinds Bricks for facade works.
Bricks for cladding can be such species:
Consider all sorts in more detail.
It is made of shale refractory clays, burns with high temperatures, as a result, acquires the highest refractory, frost and moisture resistance, strength.
Main advantages:
Dark shade clinker brick for facing facade.
Considering it performance featuresThe clinker brick is the best solution for lining at home. However, the lack of material can be called cost, high weight and difficult installation. Alternatively should look at clinker tiles, which has similar parameters, but is distinguished by a small thickness.
It is made of clay by firing at high temperatures. It has the same advantages as the clinker brick, but it is cheaper. It may have a classic brick surface (matte / smooth), mimic the stone, be a coated icing of various shades.
The disadvantage is high water absorption (up to 10%), as a result of which it may reduce the stability of the material to frost.
Ceramic brick classical shade.
Unlike the two previous varieties, the manufacture of this material does not apply high-temperature firing. Yes, and the clay with sand is not used in the composition. Hyperticulated brick is molded under high pressure From cement, limestone, dyes and other additives.
Pluses of facing material:
Contrary to such high operational qualities, the brick has shortcomings: thermal conductivity, high weight and color change over time.
Various shades of hypersed bricks.
For the manufacture uses sand and cement. This variety Brick is the fiscal basis, but the least popular due to low external characteristics. It is distinguished by durability, good geometric shape of products, sound insulation qualities, however, there are quite a few minuses of this brick:
The house with a facing of silicate brick looks very aesthetic, however, the data is applied now more and less.
With this finishing material, no others will be able to compete in durability, strength, decorative properties. May be natural and artificial.
Natural stone is a very expensive pleasure, because if you decide which material is better and cheaper to buy for facing the facade of the house, then this option is definitely not suitable. However, the natural stone can be facing not fully the entire area, but to use it as a decor or for focusing.
Obviously, the natural stone is shown excellent resistance to moisture, ultraviolet, low and high temperatures. Even after decades, it does not lose a beautiful appearance, does not require repair and care. However, besides the high price of its purchase stops a large weight of the material.
Types of stones used for exterior finish:
Facing from natural stone gives the house high costs and elitism, harmoniously looks at large houses of complex design and architecture.
Inserts made of natural stone in the facing of the house.
Alternative to Natural is an artificial stone. Externally, two species are not enough (as can be seen in the photo), but the cost of an artificial analogue is much cheaper, besides, it has a lower weight. It has similar characteristics with natural stone.
Even in the case of buying an artificial stone, its cost will be much higher than the price of a similar amount of other finishing materials for the facade.
Also take into account the service life - this is if a natural stone It will serve you for decades, but a decorative analog for finishing the facade will serve about 20 years.
Mature of shades, textures and forms of artificial stone.
Also very common material, which are separated by outer walls of the building. Allows you to restore the old building, as well as transform and even insulate a new building.
Tiles for facing:
For the facing of private houses, the first three species are often used, the rest are used in the facades of public build buildings.
Comable facing material with a pleasant decorative species and high operating performance. Pluses of choosing ceramic tiles:
Ceramic tile is in the middle price range in the facing materials market. Its disadvantages can be called very low vapor permeability (i.e. the walls of the building will not be able to "breathe"), as well as a relatively large weight.
The manifold shades of ceramic tiles.
It is successfully used to finish both residential buildings and office buildings, commercial premises. It is made on the basis of quartz sand, a portrait, various additive components. The advantages of the material:
This material is not devoid of flaws: large modules of concrete tile can only be mounted in a dry way (for small modules is suitable and dry, and wet method). Concrete tile is undesirable to use in the regions with strong frosty winter.
The base lined with concrete tiles.
Earlier, we have already considered cladding with clinker bricks. The clinker tile according to the characteristics and properties is no different from the brick, but it has a smaller weight. In terms of frost resistance and strength, clinker tiles are ahead of porcelain stoneware and marble.
The facade of the building can be issued for every taste if used clinker tiles as decorative inserts.
Facade clinker tiles look very aesthetic and winning.
Sandwich panels are high-tech, modern, high-quality designs for finishing the facade of the building. Used mainly for cladding industrial and commercial buildings, but can also use for the lining of a residential building. Consist of several layers: heat insulating heartburns, covered between two metal profiles. Glue is used for fastening, and the metal sheet is covered with a protective film. As a core can be used:
The structure of the sandwich panels.
Sandwich panels have high performance characteristics:
The only and very significant disadvantage of this material is the high cost.
House B. modern stylelined with sandwich panels.
The choice of facing material should be based not only on the characteristics of the material directly, but also on which the building is built and how these materials can be combined.
Classification of facade structures:
The design of the wet facade.
Using our overview of the facade materials, you can make right choice And decide which material is better and cheaper to use for facing the facade of the house.
You can learn more about finishing facade materials from the video:
The technology of frame house-building allows you to build buildings of various forms and use any stylist in the design of the facade. In order not to get confused in the variety of facing materials and choose the appropriate finish option, it is necessary to carry out a comparative analysis of their parameters. It is important to take into account all the advantages and disadvantages, differences in prices and features of the installation of different options for the outer finish of the house.
The facade is a business card of any structure. However, in addition to the decorative function, the trim performs a number of other tasks: improving the energy efficiency of the house and the extension of the operational period of structural elements.
It is facing material that takes negative impact of external factors: Temperature differences, increased humidity, UV ray, mechanical shocks and others. Choosing a finish method, not only aesthetic aspect should be estimated, but also specifications.
General requirements for the trim:
Additional arguments in favor of the selected material will be: affordable cost, low weight, simple installation technology, unpretentiousness in maintenance and care.
We will evaluate the technical and performance characteristics of different methods of the outer decoration of the frame house. Comparison of advantages and disadvantages will help determine the optimal option for the facade arrangement.
- Planed board with a rounded outdoor surface. The use of the material converts the appearance of the budget building - the usual structure looks good and stylish, it seems that the house is erected from a real log cabin.
In addition to decorativeness, Block House has a number of advantages:
From minuses allocate: susceptibility to moisture and low class of fire resistance. Using modern processing agents, you can significantly increase refractory and prevent tree rotting.
In order for the block House to serve decades, you need to follow the following advice:
Regarding this method, the opinions of specialists are divergent. There are both supporters and opponents of plastering the walls of the frame structure.
Arguments in favor of wet finish:
Counterparties of opponents plaster:
For exterior decoration frame houses Heavy wall materials are not used: concrete plates and stone. Such cladding requires a reinforced foundation, which is not typical for the buildings erected by Canadian technology.
Some use lightweight hollow facade brick. The merits of the material are obvious:
However, difficulties using bricks in frame construction much bigger:
Frame technology is positioned as budget construction, and - not cheap pleasure. Given the value of the material and the difficulty of installation, the conclusion suggests: brick masonry - far from the best way Facade trim.
Most affordable option Finishing of outdoor walls - vinyl siding. Plastic framing is particularly popular in Western countries and regions with a warm climate.
Distinctive features of PVC panels:
Despite the many advantages, the polymer cladding cannot be called the optimal solution. The main minus is low strengthThe fragility of the material increases at negative temperatures.
Thermopanels - plates with a solid outer coating and a layer of thermal insulation inside. This type of facing is considered to be one of the most acceptable materials for frame houses. The most popular option - thermopanels with clinker tiles.
Among the main advantages can be allocated:
Thermoplittes weigh slightly and do not have a significant pressure on the walls and the foundation. The only drawback of the method is the price. However, the estates are fully justified and pay off by a durable service.
Fiber cement or cement-chipboard - monolithic mats made of wood, cement and stone crumbs. Standard DSP dimensions: length - 2.6 or 3.2 m, width - 1.25 m, thickness - 35 mm. Such dimensions allow in a short time to sneak large areas.
Cement Structure Passed facing material by many advantages. The main advantages:
By themselves plates of CSP Unbridled, but they are a great basis for implementing many designer ideas. Popular options: wall painting with paints or the design of the facade in Scandinavian style Fakhverk.
The relative deficiency of the CSP is the need to attract an assistant for high-altitude installations due to the large size of the facing sheets.
Facade finish clinker tilesimitating natural stone or brick masonry, gives the construction of thoroughness and solidity. At the same time, the load on the foundation does not increase significantly.
The pluses of cladding tiles include:
Finishing technology provides for the creation of a ventilated facade. A wall screen is fastened to the lattice from a timber or metal profile. Further laying is carried out according to the standard scheme: a layer of solution, reinforcing mesh, glue and facing material.
Minus finishes - labor intensity of the installation process. The laying of the tile takes a lot of time and requires the performer of certain skills. Works are performed at the positive temperature in dry weather.
Smart Siding - the facade material, the basis of which is the oriented-inlet moisture-resistant plate of the 4th grade. Front side - Relief texture for the type of wood, rear - OSP-4.
Smart series panels Gradually conquer popularity due to positive qualities:
Facade panels are characteristic and limitations:
Despite the certificates of manufacturers, the smart panels have a lot of weight and create a load on the walls. For the price, the material is inferior to clinker tiles and thermoplittes, but surpasses PVC siding.
In addition to the listed technologies, other facing methods are also applied in frame housekeeping. The most interesting:
Metal Siding. The panels are made of galvanized steel and covered with a protective layer of paint. Facade works are characterized by simplicity and speed of installation. Additional advantages: low cost and a light weight.
Disadvantages of metallic facing: corrosion exposure, the formation of dents during blows and the appearance of scratches. Siding is strongly heated in the sun and shields.
Planken from the composite. Externally, the material resembles a planed board, but in its composition, polymers are present in addition to wood. Such a tandem allowed to keep all the advantages natural treeBy giving facing moisture resistance and refractory.
Marble chips. In fact, it is the same plaster, but covered with "stone powder". Adding a crumb increases the wear resistance of the facing coating and prevents the color burnout.
Deciding than to sheathe outer wallsIt should take into account the climatic features of the region, the type of insulation used and the target destination of the facade.
Outdoor finish The frame house is performed by various materials. From the position of the price and quality ratio by the most optimal options are: thermopanels and CSP sheets. Expensive cladding from block house adequately replace composite plaquen, and from facade brick And the laborious plastering of the walls is better to refuse.
For those who are configured to save, this video will be useful.
Each self-respecting homeowner tries to make his dwelling cozy, beautiful and reliable, and not only from the inside, but also outside. The outdoor finish of the facade carries the most important functions - insulation, protection against moisture and temperature drops, well, of course, a spectacular appearance.
Fortunately, today, building shops are ready to offer a wide range of finishing materials for every taste and wallet. Naturally, when choosing a material, it is necessary to take into account the location of the construction, the general view of the site, fences and the architectural style of the building. It is also important and the budget of the finishing campaign, since sometimes visually beautiful decoration can cost cheaper than more primitive. In short, the options are not so easy to choose.
To date, construction companiesPerforming turnkey repair, offer several options for finishing the facade:
How to choose a facing for the facade and that each of the materials is, we'll figure it out.
It is very popular for a long time and it is unlikely to come down from the leading position in the near future. Plaster is beautiful first of all, and then firmly and in some way even reliably. The types of finishing plasters are several, and they have completely different prices, properties and appearance.
It is a mixture of cement with marble crumb, quartz sand and lime. Water repellent and frost resistant additives are introduced into plasters for external work. Such a finish is for sale in dry, in bags, and already on site is brought to the desired consistency with the help of water and a building mixer.
Important advantages of mineral plaster: good resistance to temperature drops, has anti-grapple additives, it looks good and able to decorate the facade. It is also important that this finishing material has a very affordable cost and is available to almost everyone. For those who strive to separate the facade of their own, mineral plaster will be a good choicebecause, it is easy to apply.
As for the shortcomings, it is the main way to be called not a particularly long life of the finished coverage - it will be about ten years. Such plaster is subject to crack formation, so completely unacceptable for buildings that can give shrinkage or are in the zones of high vibration.
It is based on synthetic resins - acrylate. It is they who make this material durable and at the same time plastic. In addition, acrylic plaster has one more important property - due to its structure it allows the walls of the "breathe" the building, that is, to skip moisture and temperature without holding in themselves. Such a coating perfectly showed itself even with significant difference in ambient temperature and impacts of atmospheric precipitation.
Acrylic plaster is convenient to purchase in the ready-to-use form - this is a plastic mass in buckets of various volumes.
Initially, it has a white color that can be colorful to the one that will be needed. It is best to make it in a specialized caloring laboratory to get a homogeneous and beautiful shade.
The type of plaster, the basis of which serve sodium and potassium silicates. Perched at special temperatures in autoclaves. Naturally, plasterfielders, dyes, mineral additives and various additives that protect against fungus and bacteria are added to impart properties necessary for external use.
Silicate plasters are comfortable for their versatility in use, as suitable for use on any surface, it does not matter, it is a brick, concrete or. In addition, such a finish also leaves the walls of the structure to "breathe", which prevents them of premature destruction. It is not affected by high and low temperatures, dampness and evaporation.
Sold in the ready-to-use form, in which the first minus: the choice of shades is rather limited because it is determined only by the manufacturer.
However, a much more serious drawback is the exposure to the formation of cracks. Over time, on the facade, covered with silicate plaster, can form cracks, even without affecting the outside.
It is made on the basis of silicone resins, which give it the material, characteristic of them elasticity and resistance to moisture. This type of plaster is most beneficial in all respects: and frost-resistant, and not afraid of temperature drops. It does not crack and retains the walls of the house in the initial state well. Silicone plaster does not fade in the sun and completely retains its operational characteristics for a long time.
Its only minus can be called except its value, which is significantly higher than other types of plasters.
Different types of plasters can be textured or smooth, with a clear relief, or structured at the request of the client into a specific pattern. Plasters are convenient because they can be shed in the desired tone or they are already sold color. This type of finish is wonderful combined with many others, such as a stone or brick.
Also a very common type of finish for and facades of buildings. The stone wall looks good, beautiful and stylish, immediately turning the most ordinary house in the medieval castle. The stone can be used both natural and artificial. Naturally, the stone is firmly and reliably, his durability has no doubt.
Stone finish is able to well hold the temperature, this is important when climate with large seasonal temperature drops - for example, in the summer, the stone is able to hold inside the construction of the coolness, and in the winter - on the contrary, heat. This finish, it does not matter whether the natural stone or artificial is environmentally friendly and completely safe for human life and human health.
The disadvantage of the stone is its decent weight - not any construction will endure such a finish. For finishing, the stone requires a solid foundation capable of withstanding weight in several tons. Another minus is the cost, of course, the facade finish can afford not every owner. Of course, in this case, an artificial stone can be helped out, which has similar properties, and looks very close to the original. This option will cost cheaper.
The facade was decommissioned - already visually turns the house in a kind of fortress. Such a finish looks spectacular and expensive, so many years attracts buyers.
Choosing a stone design of the facade, remember that he will serve you a very long time, so, about all the nuances take care in advance. The stone is also perfect for an additional decor of the facade decorated with other materials. Very colorful, the trim of the facade with natural or artificial stone in combination with similar elements of the decor on other estates, such as a gazebo, paths, borders, and the like.
Also very popular for outdoor finishing work. Different types of facing bricks are successfully used to finish fences, fences, all possible parapet, arbors, and, of course, for facades. Brick decoration can be called in some way the analogue of stone - but it is definitely easier and more than a budgetary. The types of finishing brick are several, here are the main of them:
It is made of a certain variety of clay, it has good sintering and under firing comes to a solid consistency. The properties of the finished clinker brick allow you to get a finish of walls, resembling ancient buildings, and besides the presentable appearance, provides good protection from cold, heat and dampness.
Clinker brick in retail chains is presented in different color solutions. They depend on special natural additives that can be used in the firing of clay. For example, metal oxides, in particular, aluminum and iron, give the product a burgundy shade, of various intensity. Carbon oxide, on the contrary, is able to give ready-made bricks black and various gray shades. Shades remain unchanged throughout the service life of the finish.
Clinker brick is beautiful, but it also has a number of flaws. For example, quite complicated installation, requiring perfect smooth surface. In addition, the facade will most likely need pre-sound and thermal insulation.
Also manufactured from clay, only for it, raw materials are sifted to obtain the smallest fractions. This finish tolerates mechanical effects well, it is not terrible as frost and ultraviolet.
Facade finishing with ceramic bricks for a long time remains popular and is not going to take their position in the near future. This material perfectly misses couples, allowing the surface of the walls to "breathe", which prevents their premature destruction. Shades of this material can also be diverse.
Ceramic brick is not only beautiful and practically universally, but also firmly, reliable and for a long time.
It consists in essence, a mixture of sand and lime. Properly prepared with these ingredients solution, bricks are formed under a special press. Thanks to this method of production, silicate bricks are ideal in the installation process - they are easy to dock, there is no need for a selection.
Coloring silicate brick can be the most diverse - the choice of shades is worthy, you can choose exactly what is needed.
An important advantages of the facade finish with silicate brick, it is necessary to name its thermal insulation properties, strength, good density. But it was not possible to do without minuses - compared with other types of brick, this species has lower rates of frost and moisture resistance, which, often wet and may suffer from atmospheric phenomena.
