Rules for finishing floors in the bath

Traditionally, in a modern bath, the interior decoration, the photo of which you liked, is started from the floor. For a steam room, it is more expedient to raise it a little. It is desirable to do this in order to protect the room from unnecessary drafts, providing better heat conservation. The flooring is done with tiles, although edged and grooved boards are quite suitable.

The process of arranging the floor with wood is quite simple. First, the logs are laid, then the boards are laid. Lags are placed on brick posts that are located on a rough base.

Sauna special panels have excellent performance and look great

The selected size of the lag varies from 20 × 20 to 25 × 25 cm with an installation step of approximately one meter, since the floor will not experience significant loads. For flooring, an edged, preferably grooved board is used. The wood used should have a thickness of about 30 cm. All material should be treated with an antiseptic agent in advance, which will protect against the growth of fungus and the spread of mold.

Interior baths with a spacious lounge

If tiles are chosen for arranging the floor, then the installation process is as follows. The floor screed is pre-made, and the surface should become perfectly flat. Fasten the tiles with special glue. To process the seams, a moisture-resistant grout is used to protect the material from mold.

The popularity of the wall paneling is explained by the fact that with its help two tasks are solved simultaneously - wall decoration and room insulation.

The place for the location of the oven must be made of non-combustible materials

This material is made from wood and is the ideal cladding panel. Walls decorated with clapboard look nice. In addition, visually, the boards level any surface. This is the best option for wall decoration, as it provides excellent ventilation all other building materials. The lining allows the walls to "breathe" freely, it does not allow the appearance of condensation, and therefore mold.

The lime board is considered the most optimal. The finishing technology with this material is simple. Initially, the lining is brought into the steam room, where the material adapts to the microclimate of the room. If the walls have drops, they are aligned with slats.

Protect yourself from a metal stove with wooden panels to avoid burns

The joints and crevices are carefully caulked. The work begins by assembling the battens made of battens. They are attached to the walls at a half-meter distance. Initially, the most extreme bars are nailed in order to then fix a thread on them, which will serve as a guide for securing the remaining rails.

Although, if there is a flat surface of the walls, the crate can be omitted. In such a situation, the cladding material is fixed directly to the walls. However, this option for interior decoration with wood will be strong, beautiful and durable, only with perfectly flat walls.

Fastening the lining

After completing the preparatory stage, they begin the process of finishing the bath inside - the photo will help navigate the sequence of actions. It is necessary to select suitable fasteners made of materials that are not dangerous to moisture and high temperatures. Forget about traditional nails right away, as they will quickly corrode, the walls will deteriorate with rust stains. And when the temperature rises in the steam room, touching the nails is dangerous - they can burn the skin.

The lining is cut immediately to size, focusing on the height baths, then fix it to a previously prepared lattice (or directly to the walls) with special brackets. If necessary, the width of the lining can be slightly trimmed at the corner joints.

Lounge in bath, the place where the most time is spent

For the finishing of the steam room, high-quality wood should be used that can withstand high temperatures and high humidity.

All actions must be carried out using a level to obtain a perfectly flat structure. After making the frame, it is covered with an antiseptic. You should also process the lining, but even before you start installing it on the frame. Material placement starts from the corner. Nails, staples and clamps are used as fixators. The material that was used to decorate the surface of the walls can also be used to decorate the ceiling.

Light woods are best suited for small spaces

It is necessary to understand that the maximum temperature is kept under the ceiling, which is why it is necessary to choose lining for this surface from rocks in which there is a small amount of resins, otherwise their drops can burn the skin when falling. The finishing of the place where the stove will stand must be made of non-combustible materials - tiles, bricks.

Helpful advice!  It is not recommended to choose spruce or pine for the steam room. It is better to beat the dressing room with this material.

Warming and insulation of walls

The interior decoration of the bath also implies a solution to the issue of room insulation. Sometimes experts recommend using mineral insulation. It fits under the crate, but in this matter everything will depend on the type of load-bearing walls of the building. In the event that the bath is made of stone or concrete blocks, it is better to do without insulation, otherwise after that you will have to solve the problem with poor-quality ventilation.
