When the construction of a house approaches its final stage, the time comes for facade work, since this stage is a priority. “They greet you by their clothes, they see you off by their intelligence.” This also applies to your home: passers-by will not visit you and will not appreciate the interior of the room. But by paying attention to attractive walls, positive conclusions will be drawn quickly. The finishing of the facade is carried out once for many years, so the choice of builders must be taken responsibly. Efficiency and quality depend on this.

Why is this so important

Production of facade work - external finishing of any kind: new buildings, old buildings that are being restored or just built. These works give an individual, attractive look, and also carry a number of protective properties: sound insulation, heat transfer.

Facade finishing is carried out mainly at the following facilities:

• country houses, cottages or mansions;
• multi-storey residential and administrative buildings;
• hotels, entertainment and shopping centers;
• public institutions: cafes, clubs, as well as country residences.

Every year, energy resources become more expensive, and given the harsh periods of weather, we cannot do without them. Insulation can save money that could have been spent on heating. This occurs due to heat exchange: part of the cold air is filtered and repelled by warm air, and the materials themselves do not allow wind and cold inside, ensuring the preservation of heat.

In summer, these processes occur in reverse: hot air passes through special materials, and moderately cool air is released into the room. Thus, even with high temperature, you will enjoy a slight coolness. In addition, you can install ventilated facades for additional comfort.

Cost of facade work in Moscow

Project estimate exterior finishing facade is determined by a combination of several factors. Using the example of installation of suspended ventilated systems, it develops as follows:

• The first point is the type of facade system (fastening elements and load-bearing frame). For example, an aluminum subsystem will cost the customer more than a galvanized one, but the reliability indicators will be higher. The highest option in terms of cost and quality indicators is stainless steel.
• The second parameter that affects the price is the type of facing material. The cladding is distinguished by fiber cement boards, aluminum composite panels, porcelain stoneware.
• Availability of insulation and thickness.
• In addition, the estimate includes the cost of construction and installation work: installation of scaffolding, installation of ventilated facade components.

You can find a detailed price list for facade work.

Curtain facades today occupy a worthy place among building cladding systems. The reasons for their popularity are the variety of types of material used and the fast pace of work. The system of suspended ventilated facades is an excellent opportunity to insulate the building from the outside and make it energy efficient. This design is one of the few that allows reconstruction with radical change appearance At the same time, labor costs will be minimal, due to the well-thought-out mounting system and guides. Even the most complex components of curtain facades are carefully calculated and solutions for them are published in the public domain by structural manufacturers. All this is the reason that developers prefer curtained facades more often than any other type facade systems.

Features of the structure of the suspended facade

Modern hinged ventilated facades have the same basic design. Guides are attached to the load-bearing wall using brackets, which can be moved to different distances. It depends on the thickness of the thermal insulation used, which is attached between the guides to the load-bearing wall using disc dowels. The front layer is installed so that there is space between it for ventilation. It will ensure the absence of condensation and high humidity, and prevent the thermal insulation from getting wet, which can cause it to lose its properties.

It is best to use brackets, extensions, and supporting profiles that are designed for this system. The use of drywall components is not permissible, since the loads experienced by the curtain wall are disproportionately higher. For example, if for interior decoration A profile made of galvanized steel 0.5 mm thick is sufficient, but for external work it is best to use guides made of steel 1-2 mm thick.

Basic facade materials for ventilated facades

On this moment A system of suspended facades made of porcelain stoneware or natural stone is popular among customers and builders. Buildings lined with these materials have a respectable appearance, especially if builders use hidden clips for installation. Porcelain tiles are represented today by hundreds of collections from well-known manufacturers, which allows you to give the building an individual exterior. Slabs of marble, granite, onyx or other natural stone will help make it more exclusive. This decoration ideally emphasizes the status of an office, bank or government agency.

The device of a suspended facade is also used for finishing private houses and small commercial real estate. Their owners often pursue the same goal: a reliable facade and insulation with minimal costs. In this case, inexpensive vinyl or metal siding is used, façade panels, fiber cement boards. A more prestigious and expensive option - facade cassettes, made of steel, at least 1 mm thick and coated with a polymer coating.

IN last years increasingly used as a finishing material curtain facades ceramic brick. In this case, the design changes significantly, since instead of guides, a system of brackets is used that transfers the load to the load-bearing wall. Produced fastener made of thick, high-quality steel that can withstand high loads for many decades. Bricks can additionally be attached to the brackets using clamps, which will allow for complex masonry, creating exclusive facades.

The facade is the most important part of the building, playing a leading role in creating the external appearance; it absorbs the action of wind loads and precipitation. According to the type, material and color scheme of the facade, shape, size and location of window openings, the presence architectural elements various types such as gables, entrance groups, balconies and loggias, cornices, sandriks, pilasters, etc. you can always determine the style and purpose of the building, as well as whether it belongs to one or another architectural style. Commercially, for good consumer demand for square meters in a building, the facade is also very important, since dull and nondescript buildings are usually in worse demand than buildings with a bright, individual and richly executed front facade.

Additional ways to express architectural style

It often happens that the construction of enclosing structures is not enough to make the façade expressive, and the architect resorts to additional elements. These can be columns on the facade of a building with a false roof above them, plaster and composite decorative elements located in characteristic places of the facade. Forged front gardens, statues, and bas-reliefs give the façade an undeniable expressiveness. Not the least role in shaping the appearance is played by architectural lighting, located in the most favorable places for visual perception.

And the most modern solutions include the use of spectacular media facades, arranged mainly on public buildings, the appearance of which is open to viewing from afar.

Various types of facades

Today, in the construction industry of our country, it is proposed a large number of facade solutions for buildings of any type, the main features of which are described below:

Installation of facades made of bricks and other small elements

Most often, the role of such facade solutions is masonry, which is a non-load-bearing enclosing structure, two-layer or three-layer. Three-layer wall structure for last decade lost its popularity due to lack of reliability constructive solutions, which consist of installing backfill (internal) and facing (external) masonry from brick, SCC blocks and other materials to the height of the floor with filling the space between them using effective insulation - polystyrene foam or mineral wool, vapor barrier and windproof film. At the same time, the inner and outer versts of the masonry are spaced apart from each other by a distance of 100 to 300 mm with coupling using flexible connections made of glass composite, basalt fiber or stainless wire.

The rigidity of this masonry is achieved with the help of locally stacked small-piece elements in places of attachment to the load-bearing structures of the building, the location of fire shutoffs, and also in the area where window openings are located. The danger of the main masonry lies in the free movement of the flexible connection in the body of the insulation and bad work for shear in the event of displacement of the outer mile of the façade structure relative to the inner one.

Two-layer wall construction is more popular today and is offered mainly in the form of large porous backfill blocks with high heat transfer resistance as internal masonry versts. The materials here can be foam concrete, gas silicate, hollow ceramic, polystyrene concrete blocks and other types of heat-efficient materials. The outer verst is made from the same small-piece materials - brick (most often) or SCC blocks with connection to the backfill using metal or composite masonry mesh.

The architectural expression of the facade is formed in this solution by alternating the color of the brick, laying it with an overhang in selected places, as well as applying an additional layer of plaster in the places of cornices, framing window openings, etc.

Installation of a ventilated facade

A modern facade solution, initially used mainly in public buildings, but gradually gaining the attention of consumers in the field of residential construction.

Design features consist in the installation of backfill masonry between the supports of the building within the floor, or, if available, the use reinforced concrete walls and fastening guides under the facade made of stainless or galvanized profile steel to wall elements or the ends of floor slabs. Vapor barrier and wind protection are laid between the guides and façade insulation is installed, most often made of mineral wool.

The plane of removal of the guides is located slightly further than the plane of laying the insulation, forming an air gap between the insulation and the decorative layer of the facade to allow for draft ventilation. A system of clamps is arranged along the guides, intended for the installation of the outer decorative layer of the curtain wall.

Often, façade installation work is combined with the installation of aluminum stained glass structures.

Construction of a façade made of porcelain stoneware and other flat materials

The materials for the decorative part of the facade are flat decorative elements, such as porcelain stoneware and agglomerate tiles, fiber cement boards, metal and composite panels, aluminum, steelite and other materials.

Device wet facade

Applicable as economical option aesthetic design of the building and consists of installing several layers of plaster on a grid on top of effective insulation, followed by coating with weather-resistant decorative paints. This option, despite the relatively low cost, is a highly professional solution that requires qualified operating personnel.

When installing a plaster facade, external decorative plaster can be not only smooth, but also with various fillers that form a textured layer when applied - shagreen, bark beetle, etc.

Construction of facades based on three-layer wall panels

­

This type of facade design is applicable for houses built according to standard series from large-panel elements produced at DSK factories. In this case, external Wall panels, which contain a layer of insulation, are molded with already installed elements cladding. These can be brick-shaped tiles - clinker, imitating masonry, continuous polishing, and vice versa, washing a panel that has not yet fully hardened to form an outer textured layer.

Installation of facades made of sandwich panels

This type of facade is formed by alternating sandwich panels of different color solutions outer layer. Often, panel manufacturers have the ability to produce smaller, lightweight panels. decorative elements for fastening on top of the main panels and forming a façade pattern.

Installation of decorative facades made of wood or wood-polymer composite

Main scope of application wooden facades– private low-rise construction – structural elements – logs, boards, beams form the external appearance of the building, being also load-bearing elements. There are also special decorative wooden elements– lining made of wood-polymer composite, etc., which can be used for decorative finishing public facades or industrial buildings from sandwich panels to give them an aesthetic and modern look appearance.

The appearance of a building plays a major role in our perception of architecture. Planning convenience, thoughtfulness of engineering and reliability of design solutions are not immediately realized, but the beauty of the facade makes an impression at first sight. Facade structures- This business card buildings, the focus of the architect’s creative thought, they reflect the basic aesthetic and compositional principles of the author. The history of construction knows many options for external walls and finishing of their front surface. Actually, at one time the wall structure and the facade were a single whole. Masonry no one hid medieval fortresses and logs of huts behind decorative cladding.

Variety of facades

But humanity strived for beauty, and brutal aesthetics gave way to more complex, multi-component structures. Just as clothes became more and more elegant, covered with embroidery and ruffles, houses were dressed up in stone carving lace, lined with luxurious marble, decorated with mosaics and painted. More and more new elements appeared on the facades: pilasters, platbands, cornices, belts, rustications, medallions. Architects created masterpieces from stone and plaster that still amaze with their harmony. Over time, materials, designs, and aesthetic views have changed. And most importantly, the attitude towards the facade has changed.

MAIN FUNCTION

Like any part of a building, the façade must meet the basic requirements formulated by Vitruvius back in the 1st century BC: “usefulness, strength, beauty.” The outer walls of a building are not only its face, but also its main protection. The comfort of staying in the house and its service life depend on them. To keep the house warm, the outer walls must either be very thick or consist of several layers: load-bearing, insulating and protecting. This was known in ancient times, but at the end of the 19th century it began to be used on a fundamentally different scale. The buildings grew, which required significant lightening of the external structures. The walls of modern houses cannot be built according to the same principles as the walls of ancient fortresses. They should be light enough and at the same time durable and warm. With a frame structural scheme, the external walls can be either curtain walls or self-supporting, with minimum thickness main supporting layer. Thermal insulation function. The walls of modern houses cannot be built according to the same principles as the walls of ancient fortresses. They should be light enough and at the same time durable and warm. With a frame structural scheme, the external walls can be either curtain walls or self-supporting, with a minimum thickness of the main load-bearing layer.

Note

Main natural factors influencing safety of facades: strong temperature fluctuations can cause cracks to form, wind and precipitation can cause complete destruction facade, moisture can lead to corrosion and rotting, ultraviolet solar radiation discolors the facade, the destruction process is accelerated under unfavorable environmental conditions.

The function of thermal insulation was successfully taken over by durable non-flammable insulation materials developed in the mid-twentieth century, and the outer layer of the wall itself, forming the facade, protects the load-bearing structures and insulation from direct impact environment, ensuring their durability and strength.

Today, a variety of façade structures are used in construction. They can be roughly divided into several groups: single-layer (stone, brick, wood, plaster), using external cladding (plate materials, face brick, all types of lining, etc.), multilayer facade systems. In addition, a distinction is made between traditional facades and modern ones. The former consist of natural components and have a long history of use (for example, plaster - more than 4000 years). The history of modern ones goes back no more than 150 years. They use artificial materials or derivatives of natural ones. Their development is associated with technical progress in the construction and chemical fields, as well as with increased requirements for thermal insulation of buildings. Never before has energy had such an impact on architecture as it does today. The tasks of energy saving and reducing thermal pollution of the environment have become a determining factor in the evolution of facade systems in recent decades.

Facades are becoming high-tech heat-insulating systems that incorporate all the achievements of materials science, heat engineering and structural mechanics. Traditional finishing methods using paints and decorative plasters have been replaced by new ones that meet the increased requirements for the performance properties of coatings and can radically reduce the energy consumption of buildings by increasing thermal insulation qualities. Multilayer facade thermal insulation systems, or ETICS (External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems), provide up to 25% heat savings. In Western Europe, ETICS received impetus for development during the energy crisis of the early 1970s. The Russian ETICS market originated in 1996 with the advent of increased thermal engineering requirements for the design of external wall enclosing structures.

HEAT LOSS AND ENERGY SAVING

It is known that heat losses in residential buildings occur not only due to walls, but it is external fences that are traditionally considered their main cause. Even for low-rise buildings this value reaches 35% of the total losses. In multi-storey buildings it can reach 60–80%. The amount of heat loss is also affected by the materials used. Water significantly reduces thermal resistance, so enclosing structures must be reliably protected from precipitation. At the same time, they must provide effective drainage excess humidity from the premises. Home is not space station, it cannot be airtight. Moreover, the durability of the structure and the comfort of living in a building directly depend on how well its walls “breathe.” The designers face difficult task– to create a wall structure that, with significant strength, would ensure effective transfer of water vapor from the room to the outside and at the same time a barrier to external moisture, as well as high thermal resistance. Only coordinated work of the entire “pie” gives optimal results. The required thickness of each layer and their combinatorial nature is determined thermotechnical calculation, in which factors such as the location of the house, its purpose and configuration, number of storeys, and orientation to the cardinal points are taken into account. This is how the necessary design of external walls is determined that satisfies current standards (SNiP 23-02-2003 “ Thermal protection buildings"). According to the requirements for wall structures from January 1, 2000 - SNiP II-3-79, the values ​​of the reduced thermal heat transfer resistance (Rtr°) in Russia are determined in the range of 2.1–5.6 sq. m °C/W and make it economically impossible to use traditional wall materials. So, for Moscow Rtr° is 3.2 square meters. m °C/W, which corresponds to a thickness of 5.0 m of reinforced concrete or 2.0 m of brickwork.

The estimated operating costs for heat supply come to the fore, which are so high that they dictate the strict need for the use of modern heat-saving technologies in new construction and reconstruction. The Law on Technical Regulation allows builders to erect facades of any type, except those that are clearly fire hazardous. However, the reality is that any panel or brick house, not equipped with heat-insulating facade systems, today is already forced to have its own power plant and boiler room, and soon the rent in it will be equal to the prices in five-star hotels. In conditions of acute and ever-increasing energy supply shortages, there is no alternative to heat-saving facade structures.

OBJECTIVE REALITY: CHOICE SMALL

Among the existing options for increasing the thermal resistance of external enclosing structures, the most effective and, accordingly, promising can be considered systems with external wall insulation and subsequent protection of the insulation either with layers of plaster (the so-called “wet” method), or with structural hinged elements forming a protective and decorative screen, separated from the insulation by an air layer (ventilated facades). Each of the systems has a number of advantages and disadvantages, and only their objective analysis, taking into account the historically established architectural appearance of the city, allows the designer to make a choice. The best option façade is determined by the requirements specific situation: the task set by the architect; restrictions on construction in a given location; the result that the customer wants to receive and the means at his disposal. The advantages and disadvantages of both systems, as often happens, allow us to find the optimal solution.

PLASTERING SYSTEMS

Execution of both external and internal plastering works has always been considered particularly labor-intensive and requiring high qualifications. Most architectural monuments that have survived to this day used the technique of plastering on the facade, and hundreds of years later we can admire these masterpieces. They are a multi-layer “coat” of insulation attached to the wall, reinforcing mesh, primer plaster and putty. Final finishing such a façade is made using paints and varnishes, decorative plaster or others. Although there are significant innovations in the technology of modern plaster facade systems associated with the addition of additional layers of insulation, the composition of the operations and the nature of the work have not undergone significant changes. Strict adherence is still required - sequence and timing, as well as high level plasterer's skill. Even at the stage of installing thermal insulation, careful control is necessary, because It is at this moment that the walls are finally leveled and operations are performed to ensure the strength and durability of the structure as a whole.

TECHNOLOGY FOR PLASTERING SYSTEMS

In terms of complexity and labor costs, the process of installing a plaster facade is significantly superior to the technology for installing ventilated systems.

Basic operations:

1. Preparation of the base (self-supporting, load-bearing walls or fences), leveling, impregnation (priming) of the leveled wall with a special solution;
2. Installation of brackets for thermal insulation;
3. Installation of insulation on an adhesive solution (mineral wool boards);
4. Sealing seams between thermal insulation boards (foamed propylene shown);
5. Driving disc dowels into pre-drilled holes according to a special pattern;
6. Grouting the dowel heads with a special solution;
7. Additional strengthening of joints with façade parts using special reinforcement;
8. Application and grouting of reinforcing mesh;
9. Application of the main plaster layer;
10. Application of the top (decorative) plaster layer;
11. Painting in one (for tinted plaster) or two layers (for white).

All “wet” operations require significant drying time. Operation at temperatures below +5°C is not permitted. Despite the need to use more expensive insulation, the final cost of components and materials for this technology per unit of façade area is significantly lower than that of ventilated systems. In addition, it is not particularly difficult to make connections with façade elements. And most importantly: it is possible to perform complex decorative elements on the facade, which makes this technology indispensable when performing restoration work. However, the use of additional cladding in the form of tiles or bricks is limited by the requirements of vapor permeability and weight parameters.

Advantages of plastering facades systems: relatively low cost, effective insulation and sound insulation of the structure, the ability to level the walls in any plane, the possibility of combination with other systems, the construction of a monolithic insulation area, low weight.

The main disadvantages of plaster facade systems: long deadlines for completing work, dependence of work on weather conditions, problems with the humidity conditions of the insulation - steam, penetrating from the building, does not have time to dry completely and accumulates in the insulation. As a result, cracks appear, peeling of the plaster layer, etc.

VENTILATED SYSTEMS

Systems with a ventilated air gap were quite widely used even before the introduction of expanded requirements for thermal protection - to normalize the moisture content of the enclosing structures of industrial buildings with “wet” conditions, to prevent overheating of structures from the sun, protection from slanting rain, etc. The very concept of “ventilated façade” originated in Germany (German: beluefteten fassaden). Since the mid-1950s, such systems have been widely used in residential and administrative construction. The main elements of facades with air gap are: a powerful thermal insulation layer, a metal substructure and a facing layer that determines the architectural appearance of the building. Due to the pressure difference across the height of the building, a constant vertical air flow occurs in the air gap, which allows you to effectively remove moisture from both load-bearing wall, and from insulation, which increases the effective thermal insulation of the building, reducing heat loss by approximately 8%, since the air temperature in the gap is 2-3 degrees higher than outside.

Temperature fluctuations in the wall mass are leveled out, which prevents the occurrence of deformations; the dew point moves into the outer thermal insulation layer, the inside of the wall does not become damp, and no additional vapor barrier is required. In general, the use of any vapor barrier is undesirable in ventilated facades, since it prevents the free removal of water vapor to the outside. It is generally accepted that they have practically no thermophysical problems and regulatory requirements for thermal protection are easy to perform. When calculating heat transfer resistance, the value of the coefficient of thermal uniformity is usually taken to be 0.9. Meanwhile, the design is saturated metal parts in combination with an effective heat-insulating material, and the heat transfer process is complicated by radiant and convective heat transfer in the gap, therefore the accepted value of the coefficient of thermal uniformity should be determined taking into account these factors on the basis of thermal calculations.

The characteristics of ventilated facades allow their use in regions with large differences temperatures, in regions with high humidity, as well as in conditions where traditional facade materials have a fairly short service life. To provide fire safety the system of curtain facades includes fire-resistant or non-combustible materials and products. A steel, preferably galvanized, fastening system and artificial stone panels, ceramics or asbestos-cement sheets, special aluminum panels category NG. Mineral wool is used as insulation, which can withstand temperatures of 1200°C. This is especially important for high-rise buildings.

Advantages of ventilated facades systems:

effective insulation and sound insulation, possibility of year-round installation in the shortest possible time, increased service life of facades, ease of post-installation inspection, wide range options for external panels.

Disadvantages of ventilated facades systems:

high cost, limited architectural solutions, the need to increase the thickness of the wall due to the air gap and brackets, limited possibility of insulating slopes (shaped openings), the occurrence of “cold bridges” due to metal fastening elements, difficulties in installing relatively heavy elements - stainless steel cladding, porcelain stoneware and natural stone.

INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY OF VENTILATED SYSTEMS

Installation of a ventilated system is a screwdriver assembly process, with the exception of adjusting the cladding in place, in which, as when laying tiles, it is necessary to ensure the pairing of the geometric elements of the system with the configuration window openings and coupling on adjacent walls. Only on the façade, as a rule, there are no elements that make it possible to hide the cut-off areas. In addition, the need to trim the cladding leads to a significant increase in construction costs. Assembly can be carried out from cradles, no surface preparation is required, and the results of the work are relatively easy to control.

With appropriate supervision and properly selected technical solutions(calculation of anchoring and doweling) the result depends mainly on the quality of the components and the system as a whole. The heat-insulating layer does not require gluing with pre-treatment of the base, because it is practically not exposed to static and wind loads. Thermal insulation does not need to be additionally coated or reinforced; less durable and cheaper types of materials can be used for it than in plaster systems.

The main stages of assembling a ventilated systems:

1. installation of brackets and inserts;
2. substructure assembly;
3. installation of thermal insulation;
4. alignment of the subsystem by adjusting the inserts;
5. installation of cladding.

Since heat exchange processes are provided inside the outer cladding, the designer has the ability to choose facing materials limited only by fire safety considerations. Today in ventilated systems the following are used: panels made of aluminum, porcelain stoneware, copper, of stainless steel, glass, fiberglass; asbestos-cement slabs with painting or finishing, incl. plastering Modern systems allow for cladding natural stone. In this case, to compensate for the significant weight of the slabs, it is necessary to provide reinforcement for the substructure and carefully calculate the amount of fasteners per 1 square meter. m. Otechestvennaya construction industry has mastered the production of almost the entire line of elements for ventilated systems. The exception is fasteners - self-tapping screws, rivets, clamps, anchors and dowels. To ensure normal quality, it is necessary to use fasteners from leading global manufacturers.

STATE OF THE MARKET FOR FACADE SYSTEMS

According to market survey thermal insulation materials and systems of the regions of Russia, carried out by CJSC Construction Information Agency (St. Petersburg), more than 70 facade insulation systems are presented on the markets of the Russian regions, and this number is divided approximately in half between plaster systems and curtain systems with an air gap. Based on data from system holder companies and their regional representatives, expert assessments and open data capacity estimates are formulated Russian market insulation systems. Last year, 4.3–4.5 million square meters were insulated across the country using plaster systems. m of building facades. The growth rate can be estimated as 35–40% in physical terms. 5.4–5.8 million sq. m was insulated with hanging systems with an air gap. The market for mounted systems also grew quite quickly - in 2005 it increased by approximately 30–40%. In the next 2 years, we should expect continued rapid growth in the markets under consideration. Against the background of the gradual growth of housing and other construction, with increased requirements for the heat-saving capacity of buildings, taking into account the fact that insulation systems have become fashionable among designers and builders, it is hardly worth predicting growth of less than 20–25% per year for both types of systems . According to analysts, the growth rate will be even higher – 30–35%.

Facade works include a wide range of measures to preserve the appearance of the house and improve its aesthetic and operational characteristics. It could be:

• decoration;
• recovery;
• repair;
• plaster;
• restoration;
• equipment for ventilated facades;
• hydrophobization;
• glazing;
• sandblasting;
• sealing interpanel seams.

House cladding is execution of façade works, which will transform the building and create for it unique design. Facing can be done using:

• decorative plaster. The work is carried out using modern quality materials CERESIT, SILK STONE, KNAUF, SILK PLASTER, VGT, etc. First, the walls are cleaned, then cracks and cracks are sealed, a reinforcing mesh is installed and a layer of plaster is applied. Such work can be combined with insulation of the building. They are carried out using the “wet facade” technology, first installing insulation, and then plastering work;
• natural stone - limestone, sandstone, slate, etc. The material is not cheap, but durable, environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing. A primer is applied to the prepared wall, the slabs are mounted and the seams are rubbed;
• clinker tiles. The advantage is the naturalness of the material (tiles are made from clay), plasticity, thanks to which it is possible to produce products of various textures. The assortment includes clinker tiles various colors. The material is inexpensive, strong and durable;
• porcelain stoneware. It is carried out simultaneously with the insulation of the building. The work is facilitated by the absence of the need to level the walls and the light weight of the slabs. First, the subsystem is equipped, insulation is mounted on it, windproof membrane and porcelain stoneware slabs;
• siding. These are artificial panels, inexpensive but durable. They have many textures and colors.Carrying out facade worksiding is often combined with wall insulation. The advantage of siding is durability and ease of maintenance;
• aluminum composite panels. Modern innovative material made of aluminum plates on a composite basis. Reliable, durable, yes big choice colors Used in ventilated facade systems, installation work is usually combined with wall insulation.

Wall repair carried out to protect the load-bearing structures of the building from moisture, which can penetrate through cracks formed under the influence of temporary or weather factors.Repair and facade workinclude cleaning the surface from contamination, sealing cracks and sealing seams, applying a layer of primer, putty, painting, plaster.

Facade work servicesfor building decoration- this is decorating the exterior using traditional and modern materials: gypsum, cement, marble, stone, polyurethane and polystyrene foam. Decor from artificial materials By operational characteristics is not inferior to, or even superior to, natural products. The important thing is that these materials are lightweight and do not create additional loads on the structure of the house. To decorate the facades, moldings, cornices, decorative arches, sandriks, balustrades, columns and pilasters.

The facade can be decorated with natural or artificial stone trim and lighting elements. Decorating houses for the holidays is especially popular.

Façade restoration. If structures are destroyed by more than 30%,façade works of the buildingcan completely restore it specifications and attractive appearance.

Wall insulation is an effective energy-saving technology that allows you to save up to 25% of energy costs. Insulation can be carried out using the wet or ventilated facade technique. Insulation made of mineral wool and polystyrene is used. To improve the heat-insulating and fire-resistant properties, materials are combined.

Prices for facade work in Moscow

The cost of facade work will largely depend on the price of the materials used. It is also influenced by the need to use special equipment and the labor of high-altitude professionals.High-rise facade workswill cost more.
