A bathroom can be renovated exquisitely, even using the simplest building materials. It is not necessary to purchase elite porcelain tiles and lay them on the walls right up to the ceiling, order stretch ceiling, to spend money on installing heated floors with marble, it is enough to have a desire to do repairs, the ability to handle tools and a little bit of good taste.

Under the word “budget”, the article will consider finishing options with the most affordable materials:

• paint and varnish;
• PVC panels;
• wallpaper.

In addition, the secret of creating an interior in style will be revealed and it will be proven that brick as a finishing material in the bathroom is not inferior to other materials. After all, “budget renovation” can also be stylish.

DIY wall painting

Painting walls is considered one of the easiest and least expensive finishing methods. It is important to choose the right paint and prepare the surface of the walls.

Advice! Create a design project for your bathroom. It is not recommended to paint absolutely all surfaces; it is advisable to cover the areas around the bathtub and sink with moisture-resistant panels or trim them with an apron made of inexpensive ceramic tiles.

Step 1. Choosing paint for the bathroom

Bathroom paint should have antibacterial properties and be moisture resistant. Otherwise, the appearance of fungus and peeling of the coating cannot be avoided.

Traditional oil paints are deprived of such dignity, and also quickly become covered with cracks, so it is better to abandon this option immediately.

When choosing shades, remember that it is inappropriate to paint small bathrooms in dark colors, since visually this will further reduce the space. Don't go overboard with the number of bright spots or complex designs and their quantity so that the interior does not look vulgar. Soft pastel shades will visually expand the room and fill it with light.

Please note that paints can be matte, glossy or semi-gloss. Of this variety, small defects on the walls are best hidden by matte enamels, while on glossy surfaces drops and streaks are clearly visible. However, if you cannot make a choice, consider a combination of glossy and matte surfaces. This technique will make your bathroom modern and stylish without significant costs.

Step 2. Preparing the walls for painting

Don’t forget to remove all the furniture from the bathroom, remove the mirrors, cover the faucets with masking tape, and cover the plumbing fixtures with film or newspaper, because preparing the walls for painting is the dirtiest and most time-consuming stage.

You should not apply new layers of paint over the old peeling one, nothing good will come of it. If you have a drill in your arsenal, get a couple of sanding attachments for it and clean off the old paintwork from the walls. Remember safety precautions.

You can remove the paint thermal methods, for example, using a torch or a hair dryer. Heat a section of the wall and scrape off the peeling coating with a narrow spatula.

When all the old paint has been removed from the walls, it is necessary to repair cracks and potholes and knock down protrusions.

Step 3. Preparing materials and tools

Prepare paint and tools, follow manufacturer's instructions. To apply paint you will need a roller, brushes, if you have a spray gun - great. Before purchasing, measure the area of ​​the surfaces to be coated and adjust the amount of material taking into account the volume. For high-quality painting It is better to apply two layers, keep this in mind when purchasing.

Step 4. Preparing the workplace

Free from extra items workplace near the walls, if you are not going to redo the floor coverings, then cover them with film or paper. Carefully protect the bathtub and sink from contamination.

Start your work from the most inconspicuous corner, in this place you can learn the properties of the paint in practice and, if necessary, dilute it to the optimal consistency. We recommend painting the walls with a roller, and using a brush to treat only hard-to-reach areas, corners and joint boundaries various colors. Panels in the bathroom are still in fashion; if you plan to make them, mark the height on the wall and draw a horizontal line.

Step 5. Start coloring

Apply primer deep penetration on the wall. It will not only improve appearance, but will also increase the strength of the coating and reduce the likelihood of paint peeling.

Apply a second coat of primer over the first and wait 24 hours

Pour a portion of paint into a special plastic tray for rollers. Dip the roller into it, turn it several times, remove excess paint on a horizontal surface.

Practical advice. To minimize the chance of paint getting on the floor, give the roller a spinning motion before blowing it out of the tray.

Step 6. Painting technology

Start painting from top to bottom, this method reduces the likelihood of drips forming, they are immediately smeared, and the roller “rolls” over them. Paint carefully, do not allow any omissions. Don't be upset if the first coat looks ugly, this is expected. The fact is that there are areas on the wall with old and new plaster, remnants of un-removed coating, etc. They all absorb paint differently, which is reflected in the appearance. The second coat will correct all problems, the finish will be uniform.

Paint in small areas, immediately correct difficult places with a brush. The paint should smooth out lint marks on its own. If this does not happen, add solvent to it. Pay attention, so that he is conscientious, read the instructions for use. If in doubt, test the solvent for compatibility with a small volume of material; if the paint has curled, change the solvent.

It is advisable to apply the second layer when the first one is not completely dry, this increases the adhesion coefficient between them. It’s easy to check the readiness of the surface - run your fingertips along it, they should not get dirty, but only “creak” a little.

If you are making a multi-colored panel, then you need to paint the surface in the second color only after applying two layers of the first. In this case, start working from the top of the wall; the panel is finished last. This way you will be protected from paint getting onto finished areas. Glue along the border line masking tape. Make sure that the paint does not flow under it; paint only with a brush, moving in the direction opposite to the tape. Never apply tape to paint that is not completely dry, this is very important. If you glue it to a freshly painted surface, then during removal it is likely that part of the paint will be removed along with it, and you will have to redo everything.

Wall decoration with PVC panels

The cost is slightly more expensive than the first method, but in terms of design indicators it is much better. Yes and preparatory work are significantly lighter, there is no need to remove old coatings, level the walls and seal cracks in them. The sheathing for the panels can be made from wooden slats or special plastic profiles with clips. We recommend using the second option. The cost of plastic additional elements has almost no effect on the cost of repairs, and the work is greatly simplified. In addition, the plastic profile is not afraid of moisture, which is very important for bathrooms. Wood slats need to be soaked with antiseptics - an additional waste of time.

Calculate the number of panels needed, make a reserve of 5–10%. If you have little experience, but the bathroom has a lot engineering communications, to close which you will need to trim the panels, then take a reserve of 10%. At the same time, estimate the number of starting profiles, external and internal corners. They are sold at a standard price, cost a penny, and there is no need to save money.

Step 1. Installation of the sheathing

The panels are arranged vertically, the sheathing must be made horizontal. The distance between the planks is 50–60 cm. Make markings on the wall, making sure that the lines are parallel. The sheathing is fixed with dowels, drill holes with a drill and hammer drill, use drills with pobedite tips. To prevent the floor from getting dirty construction dust, cover the area near the wall with film or paper. Once all the holes are made, remove it immediately. Don’t leave cleaning for later; practice shows that no matter how carefully you work, garbage will definitely spread throughout the bathroom.

Make the holes a few centimeters deeper than the length of the plastic part of the dowels, otherwise you will not be able to insert them all the way, dust will interfere. First, drill the two outer holes, attach the profile, then fix it in several more places. The horizontal distance between the dowels is 60–70 cm.

How to fix elements in one plane?

1. Check the condition of the wall with a plumb line, Special attention Pay attention to the places where plastic profiles or slats are attached.
2. Fix the two outer elements below the level and re-check their position. If there are large recesses where the profiles are attached, then use pads made of various materials. The dowels must attract the profile along the entire plane; there cannot be a gap between it and the wall at the attachment point.
3. Stretch ropes between them, two at the ends of the profiles or slats are enough.
4. Install all other profiles under the rope; use it to control the position of the slats.

Step 2. Installation of plastic panels

Take measurements of the wall in at least three places. If they have a spread of no more than a centimeter, then the work is noticeably simplified - all panels can be cut to size at the same time. To do this, you need to find out the shortest one and use it to cut all the others. Stack the panels in stacks of 5–10 pieces. on a flat plane and use a grinder with a metal disc to cut it. A discrepancy of up to one centimeter will be hidden by the ceiling and floor profile. It is installed at the top between the wall and the stream and at the bottom at the junction of the wall and the floor. Place plastic corners on the sides.

Remove exact dimensions last panel, cut it lengthwise. You can cut with a mounting knife or grinder. If you use a knife, the operation must be done in two stages. First, cut the top and transverse stiffeners. Second - bend the panel, at the bend on the second side, use a mounting knife to completely cut off the required part.

Finish the remaining walls in the same way. Practice shows that it is better to make the area near the bathtub from ceramic tiles. You don’t have to cover the entire wall, just an apron. The main thing is to close the area that constantly gets water during water procedures.

Wallpapering walls

For wallpapering, you can use only waterproof types. This finishing method has a number of undeniable advantages.

1. Low cost allows you to have exclusive and reliable coverage with small material losses.
2. High technology. Among all possible ways decorating the walls in the bathroom, wallpapering is the simplest. The work is completed within a few hours, the room can be used for its intended purpose the very next day.
3. It is possible to frequently change the design of the premises. In some cases, re-pasting can be carried out without removing the old one - the repair time is significantly reduced, the number of construction waste.

Disadvantage: wallpaper is inferior in terms of physical strength traditional materials. But, if you behave carefully and avoid mechanical damage, the period can be calculated in many years. In addition, defects on wallpaper can be easily eliminated; after pasting there will always be a small amount of material left. Don't throw it away, keep it “just in case” for repairs.

Which wallpaper to choose for a bathroom

It goes without saying that only waterproof ones. When purchasing, pay attention to physical strength, and it depends on the material of manufacture.

Wallpaper type	Brief performance indicators
	The most modern, characterized by high performance mechanical strength, may have prolonged direct contact with water. They are produced in a wide range of colors, can be plain or with various patterns and ornaments, with a structured or smooth front surface. Disadvantages - relatively high price, the need to use special glue.
	Cheaper segment operational characteristics inferior to vinyl. It is recommended to use in areas of the wall that are not exposed to splashes of water.
	They are made from a special polymer film and have a huge amount design solutions. Disadvantages - relatively high price and complexity of finishing. In addition, they can only be used on perfectly flat surfaces.

How to glue wallpaper correctly so that you don’t have to constantly re-glue the peeling areas?

Step 1. Surface preparation

Most important point production of work, of course, not counting the right choice wallpaper The linearity parameters of the wall affect not only the appearance of the wall, which is very important, of course. On uneven wall even theoretically impossible to glue waterproof wallpaper. This means that there will definitely be air pockets and other places where the wallpaper is not glued. While using the bathroom, these areas constantly increase in size, and this continues until the peeling becomes noticeable. Repair will be required; perfectly aligning the wallpaper after repair is quite difficult, and in some cases impossible. What are the requirements for the wall surface?

Surfaces must be primed in two layers, this increases the reliability of adhesion and serves additional protection from moisture penetration.

Calculate the surface area, make a small reserve. Each roll of wallpaper is indicated on the length, width and total area. Use this information when purchasing materials. Do the same when choosing glue.

Step 2. Algorithm for gluing vinyl wallpaper

Measure the height and width of the wall, cut required quantity stripes The stripes, depending on the pattern, can be applied end-to-end or overlapping. Cut with a small margin in length, it will then be removed with a knife, the uneven cut will be buried in the ceiling and floor skirting boards.

Practical advice. It is most difficult to glue wallpaper in the corners of the room. The fact is that they can have slopes, and this has Negative influence for quality. To prevent such consequences, never make strip joints at the corners; try to have them in the middle in these places.

1. Glue the strip coated with glue to one wall of the corner, align it strictly vertically.
2. Carefully bend the wallpaper, but not all the way into the corner, lightly glue the strip to the second wall.
3. Slowly begin to bend the wallpaper towards the corner, while constantly monitoring the displacement of the second edge, it should always be in a vertical position. An uneven wall angle is not a problem; even if there are air pockets in some places, the main thing is that the edge of the wallpaper on the second wall is vertical.

If you do not pay attention to this nuance, then on the entire adjacent wall the stripes of wallpaper will be slanted, and this is a big waste.

To apply glue you will need large room, the bathroom, as a rule, does not have such dimensions. Decide where exactly you will prepare the wallpaper. Take measures to prevent contamination of floor coverings, do not allow glue to get on the front surface. When wallpapering walls, accuracy is one of the important conditions for quality work.

Carefully squeeze out the air from under the wallpaper. You can use rubber spatulas or rollers. But it is best to do the work with clean, dry hands. This way you will feel the irregularities and be able to eliminate them in a timely manner. It happens that an air pocket is discovered late, several strips of wallpaper have already been pasted. It's not a problem. Poke the air bubble in 2-3 places with a needle, after which you can press the wallpaper again, it will take the desired position.

Without pressing, cover the switch with wallpaper and make a diagonal cut through it. Carefully cut out the edges and press the wallpaper to the wall

Once the glue has completely dried, cut off the excess length and attach the baseboards. Skirting boards are attached liquid nails or in other ways, taking into account the material of their manufacture.

• creating a beautiful interior;
• safe operation of plumbing fixtures and furniture;
• creating comfort and increasing functionality;
• preventing the appearance of mold and fungal bacteria;
• maximum long term services of materials used.

Economical repair in the bathroom it is quite possible to do it using inexpensive materials, while observing all the above points, if you plan everything correctly and choose the right material.

Selecting material for inexpensive repairs

Everyone knows that almost everything construction stores Today they offer an economical option for various finishing materials that differ in workmanship, appearance and service life. These materials are designed for consumers with different income levels and allow you to make budget bathroom renovations. At the same time, you can find materials frankly Bad quality, which are not recommended to buy at all.

It is important to remember that the relatively low cost of a material compared to analogues does not mean that it is of poor quality.

Tile adhesive

For example, when thinking about how to inexpensively make a bathroom, many of course prefer cheaper adhesives for ceramic tiles and choose the tiles themselves at the lowest cost. For example, there are two most common brands of tile adhesive, Ceresit and Moment. Ceresite is considered to be of higher quality and costs significantly more than Moment, which is cheap. But few people know that these types of glue are produced by the same company, only under different brands.

Before you can inexpensively renovate your bathroom, you need to understand the manufacturer’s attitude towards the product. By international standards quality, each adhesive has a range of hardness, and if Ceresite is endowed with the maximum value from this range, then the Moment is close to the minimum. When carrying out economical or professional bathroom renovations, you can choose any of the indicated adhesives, and you will not notice any significant difference in quality. So you can save a lot on glue and Moment is perfect as a budget option for installing tiles.

Wall decoration

When thinking about how to cheaply renovate a bathroom, with a budget renovation you probably won’t consider an expensive one. Italian tiles increased strength with non-slip coating and ideal geometry of each product. Here it is also important to take into account the manufacturers’ policies, which are similar to the situation with the glue described above. Considering cheap repairs bathroom, we do not take into account elite tiles made from special types of clay with all kinds of additives and additives, but look at budget or middle class products.

In the vast majority of cases, tiles of the middle or low price category do not differ in any way in their composition. Inexpensive finishing A bathroom made from cheap tiles differs only in the appearance of the glaze. Of course, products in the middle category have a wider range of shades and a variety of texture solutions. In this case, when renovating an economy-class bathroom, you should not chase a chic appearance; you can get by with more restrained solutions, but they will be very worthy.

For a budget bathroom renovation option, you can define three types of wall decoration:

• ceramic tile;
• plastic panels;
• moisture resistant paint.

Important! If you do not have perfectly smooth walls that do not require preliminary preparation, then when carrying out budget renovations in the bathroom, it is better to avoid using paint. Preparing the walls will cost a lot of money to purchase putty and call a professional, which means that inexpensive renovations in the bathroom will no longer be possible.

As for ceramic tiles, to work with this material you also need a special tool, certain theoretical knowledge and of course practical experience. Of course, it won’t be possible to renovate a bathroom yourself using tiles without the necessary knowledge and tools. However, in this case, you should not be upset, since there is the cheapest and at the same time beautiful finishing option, such as plastic panels.

Inexpensive bathroom renovations using such panels can be done with your own hands without any experience. Distinctive feature such panels can be considered:

• ease of use and installation;
• low cost of material;

• possibility of hidden installation of plumbing and electrical fixtures.

However, there is one negative point. A budget option for renovating a bathroom using such panels requires the creation of a special load-bearing frame, which reduces the area of ​​the room by several centimeters.

Floor finishing

Carrying out inexpensive bathroom renovations, as flooring of course it's better to use ceramic tiles, having previously laid a screed 3-5 cm thick to level the surface. Since cheap bathroom renovations are usually carried out indoors small size, then it won’t cost much to buy several squares of tiles, and you can make the screed yourself using special mixtures.

As a temporary option to make renovations in the bathroom very cheaply, you can use regular linoleum, but here it is important to remember that a regular coating will not last long in damp conditions and mold will appear underneath it. A few square meters expensive moisture-resistant linoleum will cost exactly the same as an inexpensive one, but quite matching tiles. A cheap bathroom renovation option can be achieved by using a regular silicone or rubber mat, which can be matched to the finish and laid on the floor. But after each bath, this rug needs to be lifted and the floor wiped dry, as fungal bacteria can grow very quickly.

Bathroom lighting

Before you make a cheap bathroom design, take a look at your lighting options. Well-thought-out lighting, installed in the right places, can turn the most unprepossessing room into a masterpiece of design art. Economical bathroom renovation does not involve installing hidden wiring in the walls or LED lighting. But you can install wall lights so that they visually narrow or expand the room.

Budget bathroom decoration includes dropped ceilings made of plastic panels in which spotlights can be installed, they will illuminate advantageous places, divide the room into functional zones and hide unnecessary structural or design flaws.

Important! If the room is kept clean and tidy, then even an economy class bathtub repair may be in no way inferior in appearance to a more expensive type of repair.

Plumbing in the bathroom

Before you save money on bathroom renovations, it is important to remember one simple rule. Plumbing and its important components are not things you can save on. If the water supply contains problem areas, leaks or other temporary defects, they must be eliminated.

They come to the market from construction organizations who, when renovating an economy class bathroom at other facilities, simply dismantle the old plumbing and put it on the market for sale. They replace worn parts such as gaskets in faucets and shut-off valves, then sold at significantly reduced prices.

Interior elements

Even the most economical bathroom renovation will require some expenses for furnishing the interior of the room. The cheapest option is a regular curtain made of film or fabric, which prevents water from getting on the floor while taking a shower. A correctly selected curtain can turn an economical bathroom renovation into a luxurious room, taking all the attention and creating a general mood.

Bathroom renovation options: how to finish the ceiling and floor

The ceiling can be decorated in the same way as the walls. For example, paint it white or install plastic panels. This option is the most economical and practical.

Two materials that have high durability and varied designs are suitable for finishing the floor in the bathroom:

• Linoleum;
• Ceramic tile.

Linoleum will cost less than tiles, but if we are talking about a small bathroom or toilet, there will not be much difference in their cost.

The update is carried out in two ways:

• Application of two-component polyester enamel to inner surface baths (the cheapest option);
• Restoration with liquid acrylic (will cost more, but the result will be more durable and beautiful).

If the bathtub is in very poor condition, you can purchase an acrylic liner. This is a special insert that is attached inside the bowl using sealant.

The listed methods may not seem budget-friendly, because... are not very cheap. However, in any case, it will be more profitable to restore an old bathtub than to buy a new one.
