Closed veranda interior decoration. Finishing inside the veranda, interesting options

Finishing the veranda outside and inside plays an important role in creating the interior. Since the veranda is an unheated extension to the house, the material used for finishing the veranda in a private house must be resistant to temperature extremes and high humidity. Although the veranda is not heated, you can put a heater for the veranda, and so that the heat does not go away quickly, it needs to be insulated. It will be necessary to lay some kind of insulation under the finishing material that is not afraid of moisture, which is formed from the temperature difference at night and during the day.

First, the waterproofing of the veranda is laid, which must be sealed to each other with metallized tape, and then the insulation is laid and covered with a layer of vapor barrier and finishing material. It is necessary to insulate not only the walls but also the floor and ceiling. The insulated veranda will be about 7 degrees warmer than outside, so insulating the veranda is not economically viable.
You can decorate the veranda from the inside with different materials. Most often, the arrangement of the veranda is made with wooden materials such as clapboard, euro lining, block house.

Before equipping the veranda with wooden materials, it is necessary to treat with an antiseptic composition not only the wooden materials themselves, but also the wooden parts of the veranda that will cover the finishing materials.
Also widely used for veranda decoration PVC panels.

Very neat and beautiful pavilions and PVC verandas are obtained

Plastic panels are very lightweight and resistant to high humidity. Plastic panels come in different colors and with different patterns, so you can make a colorful veranda out of them. It is necessary to mount PVC panels on a specially pre-assembled frame made of wooden beams with a section of 30 x 20 or from a metal profile that is used when installing drywall. Since the panels expand very strongly at high temperatures, it is necessary to leave gaps of 2 cm at the edges and cover them with plinths.
MDF panels imitate the structure of wood.

They are much stronger than plastic panels. However, MDF panels are very afraid of dampness. Fasten MDF panels in the same way as PVC panels on clamps.
If you finish the gazebo with OSB slabs, then you will need to make a good and powerful frame from bars with a section of 10 x 10 cm.

Annex verandas to the country house sheathed with OSB plates

OSB slabs can be fixed from the inside and outside, but outside the slabs will need to be covered with siding or corrugated board, otherwise they will get wet from the rain and as a result collapse. If on the veranda of OSB boards insulation is placed between the plates, then it will be necessary to put waterproofing and vapor barrier to protect the insulation from moisture.
From the outside, it is best to finish the veranda with siding.

Siding is produced in a variety of colors and shades. Vinyl siding is considered standard because it has a snap joint, is durable and easy to install. Siding is usually mounted horizontally. Installation of siding is carried out on a pre-prepared lathing made of 40 x 50 beams in increments of 40 or 50 cm. Be sure to remember to fix the beams around the windows.
At the very bottom, a starting profile is attached strictly horizontally to the crate. Then the side profiles are installed and fastened at the outer and inner corners. The side profiles must fit into the starting profile by 5 mm. Also, side profiles are attached around windows and doors.

Country houses with a veranda photo

The panels should not be cut to the same size, but less by 5 mm, since the siding expands with increasing temperature. The panels must first be wound into one corner profile, and then bending the panel in the middle to bring it into the opposite corner profile. Aligning the panel in the center, we bring its bottom into the starting profile until it clicks, and then the upper edge of the panel. It is not necessary to screw it tightly to the crate with self-tapping screws so that the panel moves freely to the left and to the right. We put the following panels in the same way into the corner profiles, snap them into the lock at the bottom, and fasten them to the crate with self-tapping screws on top. Before installing the last panel, you need to fix the finishing profile strictly horizontally. If necessary, the last panel will need to be cut to width. Having installed it in the corner profiles, you will need to snap it into the lock, and insert the top into the finishing profile.
If an attached veranda to the house is made of polycarbonate, then it will not need to be trimmed and insulated.

Sliding polycarbonate veranda attached to the house

Polycarbonate is mounted on the roof of the veranda and on the walls using self-tapping screws with rubber washers. To make a polycarbonate veranda, you will need to make a frame made of wood or metal that will serve as a support for the polycarbonate. The frame is made in increments of 60 - 80 cm.
You can sheathe a small house and a veranda made of corrugated board in the country, which can be used as a protective material or as the wall itself.

A veranda was made of a shaped pipe and sheathed with corrugated board

The corrugated board must be attached to a wooden, or better to a metal crate. If the veranda crate is made of a metal profile, then you need to fix the corrugated board to it using self-tapping screws for metal with thermal washers on the cap, but first you need to treat the crate with an anti-corrosion compound.

Open verandas require a more careful approach to the choice of materials for finishing the ground. The decision from which to install a ceiling on an open veranda should be borne in mind that when seasonal influences change, the effect of moisture on precipitation and other atmospheric influences will be subject to temperature fluctuations. With this in mind, it is essential to select a design and material that can withstand these rigorous operating conditions.

The main problem will be the selection of the most suitable material.

The house has a veranda: expanding the useful space (more than 120 best projects)

It should be waterproof, strong and beautiful. At the same time, it is very important that the ceiling cover on the open veranda is well connected to the decoration of the outer walls of the house, which is part of this room. The selection of materials available in stores that meet these requirements is not overwhelming:

• Plastic panels
• Both and boards
• Paving with plastic or metal
• drywall
• OSB panels

In the case of the last two materials, you will not only have to trim the ceiling, but also finish the surface.

Plank

If you choose how to trim the ceiling on outdoor verandas is relatively inexpensive and quick, then a plastic panel is the most convenient option.

The coverage is simple and takes a while. The cost of such materials is also not very high, which will allow you to get an excellent upper limit with minimal cost.

There are only a few drawbacks to this resolution.

These include relatively low cold strength - plastic becomes brittle and can be easily damaged. In addition, the assembled surface is far from perfect in aesthetic sense - the cheapest slabs don't look very pleasant, but they are very suitable for finishing on a budget.

Both and boards

One of the best options for the relationship of beauty and value.

For a small amount of money, you can get a very beautiful natural wood ceiling. You can paint it in the color you want and repeat as needed. Installation is not a problem - even an experienced person will have to deal with, and time for all the work will at least be mandatory.

In addition, wood is fully compatible with any type of wall decoration. If you decide to cover the ceiling on the terrace, with a smaller renovation budget, you can stay at the base, but if they allow it, you can buy beautiful plates in different types of wood.

The disadvantages of this feature are the seasonal deformation of the material and the need to treat wooden parts with special compounds that prevent rotting and damage to pests.

In addition, panels and substrates can deform due to temperature changes. When doing this, take into account the installation.

toilet

The material, originally intended for finishing vertical surfaces, will perfectly fulfill the function of a decorative ceiling in this part of the house. The panels are made of durable plastic or metal and are ready for any challenge outside the living space, therefore it is recommended to install a ceiling on the veranda.

There are practically no downsides to this design, except that some varieties of plastic parts can fade over time.

The cost of the cover is fully affordable and installation is very simple with special fasteners.

Drywall and OSB panel

Both materials can only be used if purchased waterproof. Their standard types combine one drawback - poor water resistance.

Therefore, when buying, pay attention to the marking of panels and sheets. Installation is not particularly difficult, depending on the size of the parts, it takes some time.

However, additional complications begin - the GKL must be installed with a special plaster suitable for outdoor use and after both types of wallpaper must be painted with weather-resistant paints.

Other things that are the same, when choosing what to overtake on an open veranda, it is better to prioritize the OSB panel. Unlike the GCR, it does not require any additional output other than coloring.

Finishing the veranda inside and outside

Veranda decoration: finishing in style

A veranda is usually called an extension adjacent to one of the walls of the house. This building belongs to the category of summer, unheated premises. By their design, verandas can be: both open, that is, under the roof, but not glazed, or closed.

It is quite natural that the decoration inside the veranda is made depending on this fact. And also, the configuration of the extension and its exterior finish should harmoniously fit into the exterior of the house.

Design features of verandas

The veranda plays not only a decorative function, but is also necessary from a purely practical point of view.

A well-lit room, without cabinet furniture, decorated with many indoor plants, is the best fit for a pleasant stay in the summer.

Closed veranda with many plants

• The veranda can be combined with the main entrance to the house. In some cases, the entrance to the veranda can be carried out from any room, that is, there is no exit to the street.

  It is such a veranda that is shown in the photo above. But such an extension must be provided in the process of building a house.

• If there was no veranda in the project, then it can be added to the house later. But, so that you do not have to break through the doorway in the load-bearing wall, this is done on the main facade, in front of the front door. You won't have to carry out any engineering communications there, so you can build a veranda with your own hands.
• Naturally, the extension should correspond to the structure of the house as much as possible.

  The main thing is to correctly complete the foundation for the veranda. It is better to do this in the summer, otherwise, after thawing, the soil may sink, and your veranda will simply move away from the wall of the house.

  Think carefully about what it will be built from, and how it will be finished from the outside, so as not to spoil the appearance of the building.

• Usually, a columnar foundation is made under the veranda. This is enough to support the weight of the frame and its sheathing.

  Brick foundation pillars are laid out in pits up to one meter deep, under each corner post. If the veranda is more than one and a half meters long, intermediate pillars are also made.

Columnar foundation diagram

• In the holes dug under the foundation, first they arrange sand cushions, about twenty centimeters high.

  Fine gravel is poured over the sand, and it is poured with a liquid solution. In order for the water from the solution not to go into the sand, it is better to lay roofing material with a bend of 10 cm on the walls of the pit before filling it with rubble.

• The resulting concrete pad will be the support for the brick column. Before spreading it, concrete must be coated with liquid glass, or bitumen. Any other waterproofing compound will do. The height of the pillars must be calculated so that the floor of the veranda is 20-25 cm lower than in the house.
• After the laying is completed, the inner cavity of the columnar foundation is filled with gravel, stone, broken brick - any material at hand.

  The outer surface of the pillars is also coated with a waterproofing compound.

• Wooden beams (logs) will rest on the foundation pillars. The beams must be treated with an antiseptic solution before laying. This not only protects them from moisture saturation and decay, but also protects them from damage by insects and rodents.

This is just one of the options for arranging the foundation for the veranda. It may have a different design, depending on the size of the veranda under construction and its walls, if any.

In each case, you need an instruction, and best of all, a project.

Wall decoration of the veranda

If the house, to which the veranda is attached, is log, from a bar or frame-panel, then the most organic option would be to make the walls of the extension made of wood. Although, you can make a frame from a metal profile, and then just sheathe it with clapboard. Moreover, if the veranda is planned to be glazed.

Aluminum stained-glass windows in the glazing of the veranda

• Then, for this purpose, you can use aluminum stained-glass windows installed directly on the base of the veranda.

  Their use solves two problems at once: the construction of walls and their decoration, or rather, its absence. We washed the glass - that's the whole finish.

  All that remains is to decorate the plinth and intermediate posts: with facing brick, or, for example, with a stone.

• It is possible to solve such a problem as finishing verandas, combined with the construction of walls, with the help of glass blocks. This material is both constructive and decorative.
• In addition, the construction markets of the country offer a truly huge assortment of blocks: with corrugated glass, colored, matte.

  There are options for blocks with decorative applications in the inner cavity - it's so beautiful!

Glass block veranda walls

• Various options for glass blocks can be combined in any way you like, make a panel, make backlighting.

  Of course, the price of such a veranda will be more expensive than the one whose walls are sheathed with plywood or plastic, but the beauty that you get in the end is worth it.

• In our example, the windows of the veranda are small, and are located high from the floor. But thanks to the light transmission of the glass blocks, it is light on the veranda without additional lighting.

By the way, in this case, window openings could be made on the roof, in the manner of dormers.

In the construction of the walls of the veranda, you can combine both options mentioned above: one wall is made of glass blocks, and the other two are made of aluminum stained-glass windows. The fourth wall is the load-bearing wall of the house. It will be decorated during the interior decoration of the veranda.

Wood in the veranda decoration

If the veranda is open, then the concepts of exterior and interior decoration are mixed here. And most often, such verandas are made of wood: both structural and decorative elements.

• Of all the materials that can be used to build and decorate a veranda, it is wood that will create the most favorable environment for relaxation, saturating the air with its unique aroma.

Open veranda finished with wood

• The racks supporting the roof of the veranda can be made of rounded logs or timber with a section of 15 * 15cm.

  In the simplest version, as in the example above, the veranda floor is made of ordinary edged boards, not even painted. The ceiling is hemmed with standard clapboard, and the parapet is made of ordinary bars used for the installation of battens.

• But many homeowners do not want to save money on finishing the veranda, and prefer to decorate this corner for relaxation, solidly and soundly, as they say, for centuries. For such cases, manufacturers of wood finishing materials will always find the right proposals.
• One of these options used today in outdoor finishes is decking.

  Methods of finishing and insulation of the ceiling on the veranda: choosing materials

  Otherwise, it is called a decking board. This concept can also include garden parquet and deck boards.

Veranda floor tiled with garden parquet

• It is made not from solid wood, but from wood composite. That is, it contains polymer additives.

  But in this case, it only improves the characteristics of products that are very durable and are not afraid of moisture. And this is very important both for an open room and for a closed one, but not heated.

External finishing of the veranda, made by planken

• Expensive and high-quality wood for outdoor decoration is larch or ash planken.

  This is the name of the front planed board made from solid wood. Planken differs from the usual planed board in the shape of the section, which has beveled and rounded chamfers. The plank does not have connecting grooves, like a lining board, which allows it to be mounted with gaps, and not just end-to-end.

Installation of a plank with a gap

• In principle, a wooden veranda can be attached not only to a wooden, but also to a brick or stone house.

  The main thing is that the color scheme of its finishing is harmoniously combined with the finishing of the facade. But a tree can not only be painted, but also carved in the design of its surface, and there were always enough craftsmen in Russia.

Outside decoration: wood veranda with carved elements

Here's a great example of the use of carving in a veranda design.

There are twisted pillars, a beautiful carved parapet, painted in contrast to other structures, and hinged arched elements with a lace pattern. Take note!

Interior decoration of the glazed veranda

The interior decoration of a glazed veranda can, in principle, be considered as finishing a loggia.

But the veranda, as a rule, is more spacious, which means that it has more design opportunities. So:

• Although this room is considered summer, nothing prevents you from installing heaters on the veranda, as in our next example, and using the veranda all year round, not just in summer.

  Then absolutely any finishing materials can be used.

Heated covered veranda

• And here's an example of the interior design of the veranda. In addition to the stained-glass windows, the roof of the room is also glass, due to which the room is simply flooded with light. To avoid direct sunlight, frosted acrylic glass is used in the glazing of the roof windows.
• An excellent addition to the interior of the veranda can serve as some kind of unusual blinds or original curtains. The design of the ceiling will, of course, depend on what kind of roof is made. In addition to wood, plastic and MDF can be used in its decoration, hemmed with drywall and painted, revetted with polystyrene tiles, made a suspended ceiling - whatever.

Carpet on the floor of the glazed veranda

And the walls can be decorated in different ways, but almost always in light colors.

The floor on such a veranda can be almost anything: from tiles to parquet. In the image above: the floor under the plinth is covered with carpet, along the entire perimeter of the room. You can't do without upholstered furniture on the veranda - what a rest without a comfortable sofa!

Decorating the veranda inside and outside with your own hands

Most often, speaking of a veranda, we mean an open or closed extension to one of the walls of the house, where it is convenient to spend time relaxing or having dinner. But the terrace, being one of the varieties of an extension to the house, differs from it, although their concepts are somewhat similar.

A terrace is a structure that has supports on pillars, a roof, adjacent to the house on one of the sides. On this side is the exit to the terrace from the house. The rest of the sides are open, the effect of unity with nature, which the terrace gives, is very strong. Even a heavy rain that can be observed under the roof of the terrace, fully feel its dampness, humidity, hear all the sounds, will not soak the one who is on the open area on three sides.

And a cup of tea before going to bed, in an armchair in the fresh air, is a luxury not available to many.

As for the veranda, this building is located both on the first floor and on the second.

Interior decoration of the veranda in a private house photo

Cottages with such a structure on the second floor look quite stylish and impressive. Therefore, great attention is paid to the decoration of the closed veranda on the second floor - this testifies to the status of the owner, to his taste. This room also has a roof that can be made in the traditional way, or it can be made of glass, which will allow a lot of daylight to be in the room during the day.

Decorating an open veranda in the country (from the photo you can see that it can be stylized for anything) requires a special creative attitude.

You can decorate it with evergreen cypress seedlings around the perimeter, then it will turn into a structure in the Greek style. You can decorate the veranda inside in the form of a winter garden or a stone palace.

A carefully thought-out interior will give this structure a special look, make your own corner of creativity and imagination out of an ordinary house.

Decorating the veranda pillars with wood carvings or decorating them with curly ivy or vines will add a charming look to your terrace design.

Such a structure is built both on one side of the house (open or closed type) and around the house. If it is built in length along the perimeter of the house, the structure looks like a gallery, but if it is a rectangular extension, it looks like a pavilion.

For the summer period, the structure is built without insulation and glazing. Wall decoration on the veranda can be done in different materials. And for the winter, the living space turns into one where the windows are double glazed. Finishing a closed veranda in a private house (see photo) even allows the installation of a fireplace (biofireplace or false fireplace) to create a cozy atmosphere in which it will be comfortable.

How to finish the veranda in the country, photos, ideas

Verandas are of different types, depending on how the design of the house is conceived, they choose open (terrace) or closed (glazed) types.

Different cladding options will create a different impression when creating a design.

It is also important what the veranda will be finished, because the main purpose of this extension is in the comfort of those who spend their leisure time here.

Guided by your own taste in the finishing process, do not forget about some rules in order to get the desired result.

If the decoration of the veranda in a private house (pictured) suggests that it will be open, you need to make sure that the building materials that you will use for decoration are resistant to atmospheric precipitation and dampness, and withstand high humidity.

Wood in the decoration of the veranda inside with your own hands provides for a mandatory preliminary impregnation with an antiseptic, such a step will avoid not only premature deformation of wooden elements, but also protect the walls, floor, and pillars from rodents.

Finishing an open veranda in a private house, photo

If a private house in which it is planned to build a terrace is located on the sea coast or on the shore of a reservoir, it will be an interesting decision to decorate the veranda with polycarbonate - transparent walls will protect you from dampness on cool evenings, but will not interfere with the wonderful views that open from there.

Usually, summer rooms do not need glazing, it is used only in the warm season, this seasonality does not provide for monolithic buildings or stationary cabinet furniture.

Light plastic models of chairs, tables, or transforming furniture are more suitable here. Wicker chairs, tables, rocking chairs, fresh flowers, suspended in pots around the perimeter of the terrace, perfectly create themed interior.

Materials for the construction of the veranda

One of the fashionable solutions in construction today is the choice of a frame veranda.

For the construction of such a structure, it will be necessary to lay the foundation, erect the frame of the building. The options for finishing the veranda are a matter of taste and possibilities, but the principle of creating a structure is almost identical.

You will need concrete concrete pillars (to build a foundation), a wooden beam for building a frame, a perimeter lathing for its lower part and finishing materials for interior decoration of the veranda walls (stone finish in the photo):

• wooden or plastic lining (pvc),
• polystyrene tiles,
• MDF panels,
• composites, stone, perforated sheet, metal, etc.

If you buy brackets, corners, screws, anchors, tools, you can make a veranda with your own hands.

As a roof, wood, metal, profile sheet, metal tiles, glass, etc. are used at will.

When finishing a closed veranda inside (a wooden roof in the photo), you need to take into account the degree of natural light, because the only communication that is needed here is electricity.

The floor will need waterproofing, and depending on the style chosen, the type of surface, floor slabs or stone are used, beautiful high-quality linoleum can be laid.

You should not rely on the fact that a plank floor or laminate will be used, remaining as spectacular, beautiful - if the option is open, summer, the interior decoration of the veranda in a private house (see photo) for the floor is also subject to dampness and moisture. Therefore, it is better to give preference to those materials that do not absorb moisture.

A perforated sheet for finishing the veranda inside will help divide the room into zones (for example, a dining area and a seating area), showing imagination, you can perfectly decorate the ceiling with it.

It is important to correctly calculate the lighting in the interior decoration of the veranda.

Wall decoration on the veranda inside

One of the popular ways to make a closed-type terrace not only beautiful, but also warm is to decorate the veranda with plastic panels (you can see this option in the photo).

By itself, it is a lightweight structure, therefore, the interior decoration of the veranda in the country (the photo illustrates one of the options), the ability to make windows without using a double-glazed window.

It will be much more effective to take care of the insulation of the floor and walls. As a decoration inside the veranda in the country, moisture-resistant gypsum plasterboards are suitable; first, you should hydrophobize the walls of the structure on both sides: from the inside and outside.

To insulate the walls, you can use mineral wool or extruded polystyrene foam. The interior decoration of the veranda (photo) is a lining of insulation, which is carefully layered with a vapor barrier film, and sheets of MDF, drywall are applied on top, reinforced with PVC panels or clapboard.

When choosing mineral wool as insulation, remember about its moisture absorption, so that soon the insulation does not crumble into dust, provide waterproofing to the walls!

Wall panels for interior decoration for the veranda can be made of any material, even painted with decorative plaster. Wooden panels will look very impressive and respectable, but you need to remember that they need to be cared for.

It is cheaper and more practical to finish the veranda with an imitation of a bar (photo), even on an open structure, this type is preferable due to its durability.

Lining is one of the simplest materials, characterized by wear resistance, good qualities for damp rooms, and undemanding to maintenance.

The advantages of finishing the veranda with clapboard include the following qualities:

• The lining is easy to install, allows you to create a smooth, even wall due to its own texture,
• It is an excellent sound insulating material,
• Differs in durability and convenience of replacing damaged areas if necessary.

Decorating the veranda with clapboard inside (photo) gives great prospects in terms of the choice of colors, neat and easy installation, but the lack of lining in fragility, especially in the cold season.

Glazing of the winter veranda

Today it is fashionable to use extraordinary solutions in glazing, one of the ways to make your home aristocratic and refined is the French veranda decoration (photo).

It is an installation of metal-plastic windows in various shapes and large sizes. If it is permissible, the stained-glass windows built into the French finish look good in the interior.

Decorating the veranda and porch inside, the design of which involves the use of natural materials, looks beautiful in stone or wood.

Finishing the veranda outside

A beautiful exterior for a veranda is the image of the owner of the house.

Stone, wood are classic options; carved wood in decoration looks especially beautiful and impressive. Cheaper, more practical, easier to maintain, finishing the veranda with siding (photo illustrates this option).

Among the advantages of vinyl siding are high performance, a wide range of colors, ease of installation, affordable price. Horizontal panels make the building very aesthetic.

How to hem the ceiling on the veranda?

Some rooms in the house require special finishing of the floors due to the fact that the operating conditions of the materials here are very different from the standard ones. For example, when choosing how to hem the ceiling on the veranda, you need to take into account that this site is, in fact, on the street and the conditions here differ from living quarters.

Basic requirements for materials

In order for the design to please you as long as possible and not cause trouble during operation, it is necessary to select coatings with the appropriate characteristics.

The main requirements that the ceiling lining on the veranda must meet are as follows:

• Resistant to moisture
• Strength
• In cases of self-assembly - ease of processing and installation
• Matching the look with the rest of the home
• Resistant to low temperatures in winter
• Affordable price for budget repairs

Particular attention should be paid to resistance to frost and moisture - even glazed rooms are usually not heated, and there is a lot of moisture in the outdoor air, for example, during rain.

The rest of the parameters are also important, but some assumptions are possible, taking into account the personal preferences of the owners of the house.

Popular options

If desired, finishing can be done in any available way. However, the most suitable and popular options for hemming the ceiling on the veranda are:

Despite the fact that everyone is used to seeing the stretch fabric exclusively in living quarters, it is perfect for repairing open spaces, provided that textiles are chosen, not PVC film.

The film will not work, as it loses its elasticity and cracks from frost.

It is also better not to use drywall, which is very popular in the design of living spaces.

Even its moisture-resistant variety will not be able to withstand the vagaries of the weather and will absorb moisture over time.

How and how is the interior decoration of the veranda in a private house

This will affect the appearance of the surface in the most negative way - it will swell with bumps and become covered with ugly spots, after which you will have to completely dismantle the structure.

Suspended panel solutions are very inexpensive and are in demand for renovations with a small budget. In addition, the installation of panels both on the frame and on a simple crate is very easy and quite within the power of even novice craftsmen.

Of the remaining materials, the most popular and suitable option for almost any style of design is the usual lining.

It is affordable, easy to install and, after processing with special compounds, will be able to withstand atmospheric phenomena.

Rare repair methods

If you want to be known as the original, then when choosing how to sheathe the ceiling on your veranda, you can pay attention to one of the materials named below.

They have not yet earned such popularity as the previous ones, but they look very original and are suitable for decorating this part of the house according to their characteristics.

In principle, there are a lot of finishing options. It is important to consider whether the room will be open or closed. For open verandas or areas with partial glazing, it is better to choose a finish with increased resistance to weathering and durability.

Completely enclosed areas can be decorated with less weather-resistant materials.

Examples of

If you do not see this or that finishing option with your own eyes, it is very difficult to decide on a specific type of decoration. Therefore, below there are several photos of examples of how you can hem the ceiling on the veranda and how the coating will look in the end.

Almost all of the options for finishing the veranda presented in this article can be done independently.

An exception will be a stretch ceiling, but, if desired, even such a coating can be installed with your own hands. The choice of a specific type of design must be carried out taking into account the appearance of the whole house, the available budget and the personal aesthetic preferences of its owners.

Not a single private house or summer cottage is complete without a veranda - a place where home comfort and the pacification of wildlife meet. What finish to choose, how to arrange furniture and fit the structure into the surrounding space?

The veranda is probably the best place in the country or in a country house, where you can fully relax and feel at one with nature. It can be solid, insulated, functionally planned and thoroughly furnished. Or to be light, furnished with a dacha simplicity - such that with the onset of cold weather it could be freed from furniture. However, any veranda needs a certain interior decoration, which will create that unique atmosphere of closeness to nature.

The most important thing is for the veranda to be in harmony with the architecture of the house, its interior decoration echoes the interior. It is also important that it fits correctly into the surrounding landscape.

Veranda style

It all depends on the style of decoration of the house itself. But at the same time, the atmosphere of the veranda should convey its purpose - a place for relaxation and meals. Therefore, rustic styles are perfect, for example, country, Provence, Russian style, in which comfort is intertwined with the simplicity and charm of rural life. If you want something special, you can choose Japanese or Eco style. Or build a patio inspired by the Roman Empire with fountains, flowerpots and terracotta tiles on the floor.

Materials (edit)

Only natural materials will be appropriate in the interior. Walls can be finished with stone or brick, making a reference to the loft style. The wood will also look organic. For flooring, it is better to use a wear-resistant, unpretentious material - for example, porcelain stoneware. Panoramic glazing is traditional for most verandas: sunlight passes through it and the greenery of the garden is visible. If you equip your veranda with sliding glass doors, you can let the garden and its freshness inside at any time, or you can block out the dampness in the rain.

It is also better to choose a natural palette for finishing the veranda. In this border zone between the house and the garden, natural green, gray-brown, terracotta shades with bright accents will look very beautiful.

Layout

It is important to plan the space inside the veranda in accordance with your expectations and the functions that the veranda will perform in the house. If you rarely use it for cooking, but more as a place to sit and drink tea in the shade, you will need an uncomplicated dining group (table and light chairs) and a small barbecue to sometimes cook barbecue for the household.

If you are a connoisseur of country feasts with many friends, then it is better to make a competent layout on the veranda. Allocate a dining area and a cooking area, organize an entire kitchen: build an oven, including an oven, hob, fireplace with a spit, grill and tandoor, as well as put a cutting table, hang cupboards. Then a hotel kitchen is not needed inside the house.

Furniture

An open veranda should be furnished with special garden furniture. It is made of resistant materials that are not afraid of moisture, cold, and do not deteriorate in direct sunlight. Be sure to need a table and several chairs for the household. Dishes and food can be safely stored at home, so cabinets are most likely not needed. But flower pots or pots, a rocking chair or a hanging chair, a sofa swing will be very useful on an open veranda.

You will need much more furniture if you are working on finishing a glazed veranda that plays the role of a kitchen-dining room at home. Here, for the interior setting, you can already choose solid expensive furniture: soft sofas and armchairs, a round table so that more guests can fit behind it. Undoubted decoration will be wooden dish shelves - the most place for beautiful plates. Let's not forget the old granny's buffet.

The veranda finishes with a selection of decor and accessories. Since this area combines the functions of a relaxation corner and a kitchen-dining room, the decor should be appropriate and cozy. The mood of warmth will be created by family photos on the walls, paintings with landscapes and still lifes, painted dishes and intricate candlesticks.

More examples of interior furnishings of verandas can be found in the photo with design projects from professionals.

Surrounding area

A private house or private estate is a single whole with the territory adjacent to the house. The veranda should look organically in the surrounding landscape, and the garden approaching it should be a continuation of the chosen style. In short, if the preference is given to the English style, then the garden should be English. And the east veranda will fit into the Japanese rock garden. By the way, the veranda can be combined with another functional area:

• winter garden, greenhouse or even a greenhouse
• playground so that kids don't get bored while adults are feasting
• bath or sauna to combine the pleasure of eating barbecue with taking water procedures.

A modern country house is designed to provide the best living conditions in it. At present, all conditions have been created for this - an abundance of design solutions in housing construction, a lot of traditional and new proven materials.

Currently, one of the elements of private buildings is a terrace - a fully or partially open area equipped with a roof. It allows you to fully feel like a part of nature, practically without leaving your home. What materials and in compliance with what requirements can be used to decorate the terrace, and will be discussed in the future.

Structurally, an extension to the house, called a terrace or veranda, is a podium raised above the ground on one of the types of foundation, and a roof made of any material, resting on several support beams. According to the design option, such structures are subdivided into:

This species is good when located on the leeward sunny side. Due to the absence of fences, there are practically no boundaries between the veranda and the surrounding space. It is better if the floor height of such a structure is low. This is especially true when children live in a country house.

This option requires minimal construction costs. And finishing the veranda will not require large expenses. But it is necessary to impose maximum requirements on its quality, since the structural elements will be under the constant influence of excessive moisture, frost, winds, and temperature extremes.

Such a terrace retains its airiness and openness, but ensures high safety for households and their guests. The main difference from the previous version is the presence of fences made of timber, in the form of a frame structure made of lumber, as well as from blocks or bricks, followed by finishing the walls of the veranda from the outside and from the inside.

Due to the lack of complete isolation from the atmosphere, the operation of structures of the first and second types is possible only in the warm season. It is impossible to insulate them with high quality due to the design features, and it is quite difficult to completely protect the visitors of such a terrace from the wind and raindrops flying inside.

This type is most suitable for year-round use as an additional room. Even in winter cold weather closed from wind and frost, you can enjoy hot tea, admiring the beauty of nature. At the same time, it is better to combine the interior decoration of the veranda with the insulation of all its walls. This will minimize the cost of heating the house as a whole.

The manufacturing process of the described structures is not complicated and is quite accessible with your own hands, as is the decoration of the veranda inside or outside. Since the topic of the article assumes a more detailed acquaintance with the second part of the work, we will consider them, focusing on the possible options, their features, advantages and disadvantages.

Currently, the veranda is lined from the inside using the following materials:

1. wooden lining;
2. plastic panels;
3. MDF panels;
4. cement plaster and cement-based artificial stone.

A classic option is the use of natural wood materials for decorating the walls not only of the interior of the house, but also of the outbuildings. The lining is distinguished by its good appearance, ease of installation and low requirements for the quality of base preparation.

It is mounted on a lathing made of 40x40 mm bars using special fasteners - clamps, which grip the panels by the groove and securely fix them. Finishing parts can be located vertically, horizontally or at an angle to the floor.

For exterior decoration, sheathe the veranda only by installing the lining parallel to the soil with the ridges up to prevent the accumulation of water in the grooves.

Also a fairly common option. It is better to trim a closed veranda with such panels. In this case, temperature drops are less sensitive for the material, which contributes to an increase in its service life.

Unlike wood-based materials, plastic is practically not afraid of water. Modern retail chains offer many options for both color and textured design of plastic panels.

Installation of plastic trim is easier than wood trim. Thanks to the large width of the panels, the process is faster.

It is convenient to fasten trim parts to the lathing using a construction stapler, driving the staples into a wide shelf along the edge of the products. Plastic panels do not require further finishing of paintwork materials, they are well washed with a damp cloth, dust does not settle on them.

Another common finishing material for interior work is MDF panels. Like the previous version, they are characterized by a large working width, which allows the sheathing to be carried out quickly enough. For fastening to a crate made of wood, clamps are used, similar to those used when installing a wooden lining.

Thanks to the large number of colors that imitate natural wood, stone and even leather, such an interior decoration of the veranda will have a very high-quality look. With all the advantages, MDF has a significant drawback - very low moisture resistance. In this regard, it is better not to use them for decorating open terraces. Otherwise, additional protection will be required in the form of varnishing on all sides of the panels.

In the case of using cement-containing building materials for the manufacture of a terrace - blocks with one or another filling, or bricks, it is better to trim the walls with mixtures or details that are similar in composition.

Please note that gypsum-based plaster and artificial gypsum stone are not suitable for covering the walls of open verandas.

Often home owners are stopped by the high cost of cement finishing materials. At the same time, it is not difficult to make the required amount of the original artificial stone on your own in a home workshop. By adding aniline dye, you can get a unique interior in the finished room.

As already noted, the materials listed above, used in finishing the interior space of verandas, have certain disadvantages that limit their use. In recent years, more and more external walls and roofs of terraces are covered with polycarbonate - an artificial transparent material that allows you to get a closed space while maintaining visual contact with the surrounding nature.

There are two main types of this plastic - honeycomb and monolithic. The first is distinguished by its minimum weight, high light transmittance, durability, therefore it is often used for roofing terraced roofs.

The second in its properties is close to real quartz glass, but unlike it does not have such a high fragility. This determined its use in vertical frame structures - windows, doors, transparent walls.

Modern manufacturers are not limited to the production of colorless sheets. To create a soft shadow, we recommend using green, blue, red, yellow honeycomb polycarbonate for the roof. You can combine several colors, giving the whole design brightness and originality.

The wall cladding of the veranda with cellular polycarbonate is quite affordable for doing it yourself. To work, you need a minimum set of tools:

• cutting knife - any construction knife will do;
• screwdriver.

Polycarbonate installation technology involves the following list of works.

The installation of cellular polycarbonate on the roof of the terrace is carried out in the same way. If there is a ridge - the junction of two roof slopes, use a special ridge profile sold in organizations selling sheets.

In the absence of experience in cutting, cutting sheets to the required dimensions can also be performed by workers of construction bases.

As follows from our review, the amount of materials for cladding terraces is enough to make a unique structure. Before decorating your veranda with any of them, carefully study all the features of operation in a particular case.

Work outside

When choosing how to sheathe the veranda outside, you need to focus on the appearance of the house, otherwise the room will be out of the picture. Versatile materials can be combined with almost anything. They are called universal:

• wood;
• plastic;
• stone and brick.

Wood

Wood is difficult to work with. This material deteriorates quickly without proper care. Its positive aspects include the following features:

1. Attractive appearance, which is achieved due to the variety of textures.
2. Thanks to the tree, you can implement veranda projects in any style. From old Russian, decorating the corners of the room with carved pillars, to modern Art Nouveau with little processed wood surface. It looks great with glass, stone, brick, wood and wrought iron.
3. Environmental friendliness.

The disadvantages include:

1. High susceptibility to atmospheric phenomena. Various impregnations and coatings protect against environmental influences, but do not guarantee complete protection of the veranda. In addition, procedures to protect the tree will have to be done regularly, which takes time and effort.
2. Wood is a fire hazardous material.
3. Financial component. The tree is expensive. Add to that the cost of regularly maintaining your boards and you get a pretty hefty amount.

Bricks and stones

Usually, not the entire veranda is made of stone or brick, but only the foundation and several pillars that support the roof of the structure.

Consider the positive aspects:

Cons of material:

1. Stone and brick are expensive materials.
2. They do not go together with wooden houses, which can be a problem if you are building a veranda in the country.
3. Labor intensity of construction.

Plastic

Plastic is one of the most popular materials. Its pluses include:

1. Low price.
2. Ease of operation and installation of cladding.
3. Durability and weather resistance. High-quality plastic can withstand extreme heat and frost.
4. High sound absorption and excellent thermal insulation properties.
5. The material is able to withstand high loads.

1. Under the influence of the sun and temperature changes, the material loses its decorative properties over time.
2. This is an artificial material.

Interior arrangement of walls

The interior decoration of the veranda is carried out with the following materials:

• lining;
• decorative plaster;
• PVC panels;
• MDF panels.

They all have their own installation specifics.

Lining

Interior decoration of the veranda with clapboard is a classic design option.

For the veranda, a standard thin lining of 5-10mm is usually used. Typically, this is a board made of wood, wood products, or plastic. There are differences depending on the profile. Distinguish:

1. Standard profile. The variant features beveled edges that create noticeable gaps between the panels.
2. Calm. Differs in relatively soft transitions, due to the small corner of the seam of the edges.
3. Europrofile. After the coating is assembled, it forms a certain pattern.

The boards are connected using a special system consisting of tenons and a groove. But keep in mind that working with the clapboard is very difficult. Wooden panels shrink or swell, and plastic ones are not so whimsical.

The following tools are required for installation:

• screwdriver;
• kleimers (special metal latches).

The lining can be located horizontally or vertically. You can also try to install it at an angle. It depends on your skill, imagination and the characteristics of the room. And one more tip - do not try to squeeze the spikes into the grooves all the way.

Decorative plaster

To decorate the veranda from the inside, plaster is often used. This is a mixture that, after being applied to the wall, turns into a finished coating. There is a huge variety of different coatings:

• plaster, which contains colors to give the walls the desired color;
• plaster imitating stone;
• Venetian, which repeats the texture of marble.

The appearance of the veranda also depends on the technique of applying the material. You can achieve different results simply by using a little more plaster or by making different types of strokes. In addition, with the help of plaster, you can create sgraffito - stucco paintings on the walls.

MDF and PVC panels

MDF-panels (Medium Density Fibreboard) - wood fibers, which were obtained in the process of processing solid wood blocks. After that, the chips are pressed under high pressure and temperature. The veranda can be sheathed with slabs up to 10 millimeters thick. The finished block has the following qualities:

• has high sound absorption rates;
• tolerates high and low temperatures;
• easy to use.

But the material also has a minus - it reacts poorly to moisture (swells and disintegrates). If condensation often appears in the veranda, MDF panels will not work.

For the convenience of work, several formats of MDF panels are made:

• separate sheets;
• lining, etc.

It is enough to fix them to the wall with screws.

PVC panels are a material that is made of polyvinyl chloride. It's very comfortable. Since the panels are plastic, they can be bent to fit any room shape.

PVC panels have the following positive aspects:

• light weight;
• high indicators of stability in contact with water;
• resistance to high temperatures;
• low cost.

But there is also a minus - in the cold, the material cracks. So if the winters are harsh and the temperature often reaches -15, it is better not to use PVC panels in an unheated veranda.

If you will do all the work yourself, it is advisable to choose a material with pins and grooves for quick installation. The process is as simple as with MDF.

For installation, special fasteners are involved. And you need to screw the panels with a screwdriver. To avoid damaging the material, do the operation at low power. If you bought a kit ready for installation, then here you can do without a screwdriver at all, doing only with clamps and screws.

Beautification of ceilings

The ceiling is the part of the structure that carries the greatest load. It is constantly exposed to moisture due to seasonal rainfall, and in winter it must also support the weight of snow. Finding the right material is not easy. It must be at the same time: durable, lightweight, moisture resistant.

Two materials meet these parameters:

• polycarbonate;
• weaving.

They are easy to install and require little maintenance.

Polycarbonate

Polycarbonate is a transparent modern material. It is very similar to glass, but spared its disadvantages. In particular, polycarbonate is durable and very lightweight.

It has several types:

1. Monolithic. It is a solid material produced in the form of plates. It looks like glass. It can withstand loads stably, therefore it is better suited for the roof.
2. Cellular. Inside, this polymer has a honeycomb division. It is less transparent, but has the same high light transmittance. Such polycarbonate retains heat noticeably better and is much lighter than its monolithic counterpart.

Polycarbonate can be transparent or colored. It is easy to fix the material. To do this, create a frame on which you want to install the sheets. They are fastened with galvanized self-tapping screws with thermal washers to prevent leakage.

Weaving

If you want an original ceiling on the veranda, then the wicker option can be the cheapest alternative to design solutions. Outwardly, it looks like the walls of a basket, but it looks stylish. Usually they use for weaving:

• thin moisture resistant plywood;
• veneer.

The installation procedure in the house is quite simple:

1. Saw the sheet into several even strips. To do this, you can use a machine so that the cuts are neat, otherwise the weaving may be fragile.
2. Weave the fabric on a flat surface. Weave in a checkerboard pattern, using a rubber mallet to tap the protruding edges.
3. Hide the "tails" of the stripes from the seamy side of the weave.
4. Since the structure is quite heavy, it is impossible for one person to lift it. To make it easier to work, use the ropes brought along the edges. It is better to lift from the side of the doors.
5. You can fasten the material with slate nails.

Install skirting boards to hide the joints. For greater aesthetics, cover it with varnish.

Flooring

The final chord in the design of the veranda is the choice of flooring. The options can be as follows:

• terrace board;
• tile;
• rubber;
• linoleum;
• cement.

To finally make a choice, think about whether you will walk barefoot or in shoes on the veranda. In addition, carpet or carpet can be laid on the floor in the veranda.

Terrace board

Decking is essentially processed lumber. This is a three-layer construction:

1. Bottom layer. This is a cover with ventilation slots.
2. Middle layer. There are cavities here that allow the wood to expand without deforming the overall structure.
3. Upper. This is the face of the board, so it is smooth.

This material has many advantages:

• the board is easy to mount;
• the floor is not much different from wood;
• the coating is durable and heat-absorbing.

So that the floor does not deteriorate, it is better to give preference to boards that are varnished. Installation must be done on a frame with lag transmission. Moreover, the logs must be placed perpendicularly with an interval of 40-60 cm. After that, the board can be fixed. It is better to use nails or screws as a retainer.

Tile

The slab is a difficult material to install. But the difficulties justify themselves, since the tile has the following positive qualities:

• it is shockproof;
• easy to clean and withstands rainfall;
• differs in a variety of design.

Tile installation is carried out according to the following steps:

1. First, the surface needs to be leveled.
2. Then the screed is carried out.
3. Preparation of materials. You will need special tile adhesive.
4. The tile is leveled. Between the corners, you need to install special crosses in order to align the dimensions of the seams.
5. Then mask the joints with a special grout. If grout gets on the tiles, don't worry. It will be washed off the surface, but will remain in the gaps.

But there is one difficulty - cutting. This must be done if the room has non-standard dimensions. This operation is almost impossible to do without a tile cutter, although you can try to replace it with a grinder.

Linoleum

If the classic wall decoration in the veranda is clapboard, then for the floor - linoleum. The coating is made of polyvinyl chloride in combination with polymers. The advantages of the material include:

• waterproof (but only if attached in one piece);
• impact resistance and wear resistance;
• ease of installation and maintenance;
• huge assortment;
• low cost.

Even a non-professional can do the editing of the material. The main thing is that the floor surface is sufficiently flat. Next, you need to roll out the roll, align it and fix it near the baseboard. If the linoleum has been cut, individual sections can be held together using a special strip. But due to the fact that the material passes cold, you need to use insulation.

Rubber

The rubber covering is the rubber used to cover the floor. On the market, it is represented by slabs or monolithic blocks. Of the positive aspects of the material, one can single out:

• impact resistance;
• absolute waterproofness;
• resistance to temperature changes;
• phenomenal durability;
• a wide range of design solutions.

It is important here that the floor is level. To connect the plates together, you need polymer glue.

The installation procedure is similar to working with ordinary tiles. But in this case, crosses are not needed, because the plates fit more tightly. If rolled rubber is used, the joints are sealed with a soldering iron or a hot air gun.

Cement mixtures

You can decorate the floor in the veranda in a standard way using cement. Despite the banality, the option remains the most labor-intensive. At the same time, such a floor can be laid even on a monolithic foundation. As a result, you will get coverage that is different:

• shock resistance;
• waterproof;
• resistance to temperature changes.

It does not require careful maintenance. True, after the cement mixture is installed, it must be polished to a shine with a special machine.

There are many other versions of finishing materials such as OSB slabs or self-leveling floors, but all of them are in less demand among consumers.

The choice of material for finishing the walls of the veranda

The materials chosen for the veranda walls must meet practical and aesthetic requirements. A feature of their choice is the lack of heating in the closed extension and the serious impact of climatic conditions on the structure of the open veranda. Therefore, the material used for decoration should not only be visually attractive and match the design, but also withstand the sun exposure, high humidity and temperature fluctuations.
Veranda wall cladding can be done with many finishing materials that are used for indoor and outdoor work:

• Wooden lining. It belongs to the classics of the genre, as it is the most popular material for wall cladding due to its environmental friendliness, excellent appearance and pleasant aroma exuded by natural wood.
• Plasterboard sheets (gypsum plasterboard). For verandas, their moisture-resistant version is suitable. Such products differ from ordinary gypsum boards in their green color. The material is environmentally friendly, easy to install and easily processed in numerous ways. It can take almost any shape, and this is important when decorating walls. This cladding is used in closed verandas.
• MDF panels. This material imitates natural wood. It is quite durable, but a humid environment is not for it. Therefore, MDF can be used for wall cladding of a closed veranda.
• PVC panels. It is durable and inexpensive moisture resistant material. It is represented by a rich assortment of all kinds of shades and colors, it can have a different texture, it is very easy to work with and not particularly whimsical to care for. Suitable for wall cladding of any type of extension.
• Siding panels. They are practical and affordable. They often imitate wood and come in a variety of colors. The material does not lend itself to decay, is resistant to temperature extremes and fire, easy to clean and durable. Most often used for exterior wall decoration on the veranda.

Preparatory work before finishing the walls on the veranda

If the veranda has glazing, it is better to finish its walls after installing thermal insulation under the windows. In this case, the room can be used almost until the onset of frost.
To insulate a closed veranda, you can use mineral wool or foam. To begin with, waterproofing should be fixed on the walls; you can take a moisture-proof plastic wrap as it. It fits with an overlap of 150-200 mm, the joints of the canvases must be glued with metallized tape.
After that, it is necessary to install the crate on the walls. The material for it can be a wooden bar, pre-treated with an antiseptic. The cross-section of the timber should be selected according to the thickness of the insulation, and the size of the lathing cell should correspond to the width of the insulation.
Then the insulation, in particular mineral wool, should be packed in waterproof material and placed in the crate cells. Wrapping the insulation will keep it dry and keep it functional for many years.
After that, on top of the insulation, a foil membrane should be fixed on the crate and its joints should be glued with tape. In the process of insulation, it plays the role of a heat-reflecting screen. On this, the thermal insulation of the walls can be completed.

Veranda wall decoration technology

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

Decorating the walls of the veranda with PVC panels

This method of decoration is inexpensive, but it can make an ordinary room cozy and interesting. The panels are not afraid of high air humidity and sudden changes in its temperature - they are not capable of causing deformations of this material. Installation of panels is easy and straightforward.
The disadvantage of the material is its fragility, although at present it is possible to purchase "armored" panels, the cost of which will be twice as much as usual. Therefore, after installing such a cladding, you should carefully move chairs to it or lean on the wall. To minimize the risks, there is such a construction trick: the first plank of the sheathing of the panels is mounted at the knee level, the second at the pelvis, and the third at the shoulder.
The frame for plastic panels is made of wooden slats or a profile that is used when installing gypsum boards. The slats can have a section of 30x10 or 30x20 mm, before use they should be treated with an antiseptic.
The fastening of the battens should be carried out perpendicular to the installation of the panels. For example, if the plastic on the wall needs to be placed vertically, then the slats for fixing it should be stuffed horizontally on the wall, the step between them should not exceed 50 cm.
After making the lathing in the corner of the room, you need to fix the mounting corner or starting profile with screws or nails. The corner will allow you to dock the panels with each other. The starting profile is installed if the adjacent wall will be sheathed with another material. A plinth fixing strip must be installed on the ceiling.
The first panel is inserted into the guide profile with a tenon in the direction of installation. Then it must be fixed on the crate using a self-tapping screw with a press washer. Then the spike of the next PVC panel must be firmly inserted into the groove of the previous one and secured. All other cladding panels are mounted in the same way.
Due to the fact that plastic has thermal expansion, a gap of 20-30 mm should be left at the bottom and top of the wall to compensate for it, masking it with a plinth.
Important! Panels with a pattern for wall cladding are installed from left to right. Plain color panels can be installed from either side.

Decorating the walls of the veranda with MDF panels

This material is quite popular among adherents of self-decoration. MDF panels are stronger than plastic, but not resistant to moisture. Therefore, they should only be used on closed verandas.
The process of installing MDF panels is similar to the previous one. Only in this case, their fastening is made using metal special devices - cleats, which are fixed to the material with small nails or a construction stapler. This must be done through a guide, it will prevent damage to the edge of the panel.

Decorating the walls of the veranda with clapboard

Clapboard is a wooden board with a thickness of up to 22 mm, which has special grooves, with the help of which the installation and joining of cladding elements is carried out. If the material is treated with an antiseptic, its service life can be extended up to 20 years.
According to the production method, the sheathing board can be solid or spliced. In the latter case, pieces of quality wood are joined together in a special way. Such products do not have flaws in the form of knots or cracks, but are not suitable for covering the walls of an open veranda.
The reason for this is the formation of cracks at high humidity in the joints of the board, which spoil the appearance of the finished cladding. The most expensive lining is almost always spliced. It has a class "extra", and products of classes A, B and C are made from solid wood.
Before finishing the walls on the veranda with a cladding board, the material must be left for adaptation in a closed room for several days, and then the lining must be treated with a protective compound. Mounting the board on the walls of the veranda is similar to installing PVC and MDF panels.
There are several ways to attach it:

1. The simplest of these is fastening using galvanized nails. In this case, they are driven in along the center of the planks, and the caps are sunk into the wood using a punch.
2. Fixing the sheathing board with self-tapping screws is more laborious, but the attachment points are not visible. A hole is drilled in the board from the side of its thorn, which has a depth of about 10 mm. The diameters of the drill and fastener heads must match. Then the bar is screwed to the batten rail, and the screw is sunk into the hole and closed with a dowel from above. The place of the fastener is then sanded.
3. The board can be fixed to the battens with mounting brackets. For this, a pneumatic or mechanical construction stapler is used.
4. Another way is to fasten the wooden sheathing with clamps. In this case, it is first attached to the rear wall of the mounting groove of the first strip. Then it is fastened with nails to the wall and only then the kleimer is fixed. The same kleimer is installed on the second board, its spike is inserted into the groove of the previous plank and the kleimer is fixed on the batten rail. With the help of such fasteners, only the inner wall cladding is performed.

After completing the installation of the wooden wall cladding, you need to close all the corners and joints near the doors and windows with a corner and proceed to the finishing of the coating. To give its surface a certain shade, you can use colored varnishes and wood stains.
Before painting the walls on the veranda, it is recommended to apply the selected varnish to the sample of the material and let it dry. It happens that after drying, the shade of the coating changes, and it is quite difficult to remove a layer of varnish that does not correspond to the plan. Therefore, it will be better to buy a small container with a paint composition for the sample, and if it fits, purchase the rest.
If there is a need to leave the cladding wood in its original form, a colorless glaze containing an ultraviolet filter can be applied to it. It will help prevent the sun from fading your veranda walls.

Exterior wall decoration of the veranda

It can be done with lining or siding. Wooden cladding in this regard is somewhat capricious. Despite the processing of its elements with various antiseptics, when exposed to atmospheric precipitation, sunlight and seasonal temperature changes, the sheathing can lose its original appearance if not looked after.
Therefore, every year you will have to carry out various measures for its safety: impregnation, staining, etc. But if the choice in the direction of using wood has already been made, it is important to remember that the horizontal fastening of the outer sheathing boards should be done upward with a thorn, fixing them in 2 rows on each side of the lock joint.
Exterior decoration of the veranda walls with siding is a better option. This cladding got its name in the 19th century. Sliced ​​and painted boards were fastened at an angle to the plane of the wall in such a way that each subsequent horizontal element slightly hung over the previous one. This position of the boards allowed the water to roll down without delay along the facing. Nowadays, siding performs two functions - protective and aesthetic.
Vinyl siding is the most commonly used exterior wall cladding. Its popularity is due to the ease of installation, practicality and affordable price. Externally, the material looks like an ordinary board, which is used for cladding the facade.
However, vinyl will not lose its appearance even after a couple of decades, despite seasonal temperature fluctuations, bitter frosts and heavy rainfalls. In addition, dirt does not stick to this material and its maintenance is minimal - except perhaps to wash off the dust from the cladding with a garden hose. Due to the huge number of shades, siding can be matched to any exterior of the house, it will perfectly fit into the overall ensemble everywhere.
Installation of vinyl siding panels is carried out in the following order:

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

How to sheathe the walls of the veranda - look at the video:

A beautifully decorated building, located by the house or in the garden, always serves as an excellent place for relaxation and casual conversation. The neat and tasteful interior decoration is able to create a feeling of home comfort on the veranda and become an excellent designer decoration. edition TutKnow.ru

Your country house will become even more comfortable and beautiful if an extension is attached to it, located along one of the walls, which is called a veranda. Practically, this is another of the rooms, but located in the open air, where you can enjoy the aromas of flowers in the summer and the smell of rotten foliage in the autumn. Even if it is raining outside the window, you can enjoy a cup of coffee on the veranda. The covered veranda can be converted into a summer dining room where the whole family can gather.

We cover the veranda

Since the veranda is used only in the summer, it is not necessary to carry out communications and heating there, therefore very often such a building is made by hand. Just like the facade of the house, the veranda needs additional finishing, which will help you feel the atmosphere of comfort and warmth. You should know that a house with a veranda sheathed with siding in the same style will look more beautiful, look at the photo.

Finishing the veranda with siding is done even when the house itself is sheathed with bricks or special plaster. Due to the precisely matched color of the panels, the result will be the most harmonious.

Why siding

When compared with other finishing materials, the use of siding provides the following opportunities:

• ease of maintenance - in order for the cladding to look clean and beautiful, you should sometimes spray the surface of the panels with water from a hose;
• has a low cost.

Such material is simple and easy to install, so if you have little construction experience, sheathing the veranda with siding after carefully reviewing the recommendation is quite a simple task.

Wall decoration

Before you start sheathing the veranda with panels, you should develop a plan that will give you the opportunity not only to calculate the cost of installing the panels, but also to prepare the exact amount of material. When the drawing with the indicated dimensions is completed, the crate is attached to the facade, which is required for the correct installation of the building material. For the frame, a metal profile or wooden even slats are most often used. Surface preparation is also an important workflow, as is the installation of the siding panels themselves. Siding only highlights all the obvious irregularities and distortions of the walls, therefore, when installing the frame, the possibility of such errors should be completely excluded.

The lathing is installed along the entire plane of the wall vertically, at a distance of about fifty centimeters. Additional beams are attached around window openings, at the corners of the veranda, and along the top and bottom edges of the trim. All fasteners and screws that are used to install the frame must be long to fit into the tree, not less than thirty millimeters. The hats should be about eight millimeters in size.

A starting profile is installed below, which are attached to the frame with self-tapping screws. It should only be placed horizontally. Then corner profiles are attached in all corners, as well as around window and door openings. In this case, it is worth strictly observing that the lower edge of the corner profile is several millimeters below the first rail.

When the crate is ready, you should start cutting the panels. You can cut the bar with an ordinary hacksaw with small teeth or a jigsaw. The finished strip is slightly bent with an arc and the edges are inserted into the grooves of the corner profiles. The aligned bar is inserted with one edge into the starting bar, after which it is fixed with self-tapping screws into the grooves prepared in advance. It is not recommended to decorate the veranda with siding without ready-made holes; if necessary, you can use a special tool or a knife. It is not recommended to fasten the siding tightly to the frame; there should be a small gap between the screw head and the board surface, which ensures the expansion and deformation of the panel. In areas where frequent cold weather is observed, it is better to put a special nylon washer under the self-tapping screw.

The next bar is also inserted into the corner profiles, after which it snaps into the groove of the previous one and is also fixed to the frame.

Before installing the final panel, a finishing profile is mounted, which is fixed at the level, and the panel of the required width is inserted into the previous strip with one edge, the other edge into the profile and snapped into place.

When installing antennas and other passable parts to the panels, these elements should not in any way restrain the expansion and contraction of the panels.

Finishing the veranda with siding is carried out at a temperature of at least ten degrees. If installation is required in the cold season, small gaps are left between the panels.

In order to get a veranda sheathed with siding in the photo, you just need to adhere to the recommendations. If you have any difficulties in the process of work, you can watch the video.

Requirements for materials

Since we are talking about lining the veranda outside, it is important to understand the seriousness of the choice of material. It must meet some requirements. For example, have you seen that someone pasted wallpaper over a house or veranda? No? But why? The thing is, the material is simply not made for outdoor use. The wallpaper will fade, peel or soak in the rain in a few days. In this example, you can understand that the material for the veranda cladding must meet certain requirements. Here's the list:

1. Withstand precipitation in the form of rain, fog or snow.
2. Resist the influence of ultraviolet rays, do not fade or warp.
3. Be resistant to sudden temperature fluctuations.
4. To be frost-resistant and durable.
5. Withstand various physical and mechanical damage.
6. Be bio-resistant, not susceptible to mold, mildew or insects.
7. Be aesthetically pleasing.

Only such materials for veranda cladding can serve you well, remaining durable, reliable and beautiful for many years. And what can you choose from? Let's look at a list of suitable materials, and video installation instructions for each of them.

Wooden lining

One of the most popular materials for interior and exterior decoration. The lining is made of wood, therefore it is environmentally friendly. In addition, the appearance of the products is simply gorgeous. As for the plating process, it is simple. It all comes down to creating a wooden frame and fixing the lining to it. Due to the locking connection, no seams are visible. The connections are hidden. But punks can be fixed in different ways. Often, clamps, nails, screws or staples are used for this.

Here are the benefits of the products:

1. Great appearance.
2. Ecological cleanliness.
3. Ease of installation.
4. With proper processing, the material will be protected from moisture and other atmospheric influences.
5. The lining is strong and durable.
6. Thanks to the product classification, you can choose products by price category for yourself, ranging from inexpensive to luxury class.
7. The ability to lay insulation under the lining.
8. Versatility. Can be used both outside and inside.

The installation process itself is simple. You can see the technology from this video:

Siding for veranda cladding

It is a unique material that is designed for outdoor use. It has all the benefits we talked about above. At the same time, there are several types of siding:

• metal;
• cement;
• wood;
• vinyl.

Most often, the last two options are used in verandah finishes. The installation technology is somewhat reminiscent of lining, since here you also need to build a frame and fix the siding to it. But, in the work there are some details and subtleties that are different. The material itself is very decent and is widely used for cladding not only verandas, but also houses in general.

Here are the benefits of siding:

1. Long service life (50 years minimum).
2. Possesses an excellent appearance and various assortment of colors.
3. Simple to operate, easy to wash, no need to paint or repair.
4. It is lightweight and flexible.
5. It is versatile, you can choose the material of manufacture yourself.
6. Installation is pretty straightforward.
7. It copes well with temperature extremes and harsh weather conditions.
8. It has openings for ventilation and condensation drainage.
9. The veranda cladding material will not rot and be attacked by insects.
10. Durable, practical and non-fading.

Due to its advantages, siding occupies a leading position among other cladding materials. Although, like everything, it has some disadvantages:

• the material cannot be called environmentally friendly, although this is not so important for covering the veranda from the outside.
• vinyl products burn very well, emitting harmful and toxic smoke;
• vinyl products for the veranda become fragile at low temperatures;
• metal siding is easy to damage. By bending it once, you will not return it to its former appearance;
• wood siding has a short lifespan.

You can see the installation of siding from this video:

Other popular materials for veranda cladding

Most often, they resort to the materials described above for sheathing. Although, there are other options that are also in demand. One of them is facing brick. If your house is completely tiled with this material, then it would be foolish to use any other material for the veranda. Facing brick is quite expensive, but it has its own advantages. It can be noted reliability, strength, external beauty, durability, resistance to precipitation and temperature fluctuations. The material is not afraid of shocks and ultraviolet rays. Therefore, we can say that this option is a guarantee of reliability.

If we are talking about a wooden house, then the veranda for it can be made in this style. Many people sheathe the veranda with wood, and the clapboard can also be attributed here. Nevertheless, often for this purpose a block house or imitation of a bar (false beam) is used. This is one of the varieties of lining, which differ in appearance and characteristics. A block house is a lining that imitates a rounded beam. The material has a convex shape, so after sheathing the veranda it may seem that it is entirely made of wooden beams. But the imitation of a bar creates the effect of an ordinary bar, has a rectangular shape. Take a look at the photo to understand the difference in the appearance of the materials.

You can decorate the veranda in one way or another. It's up to you to decide. It all depends on the desire, preferences and financial capabilities.

The veranda can not always be sheathed. There is another finish option, which is plastering. Often the house itself is finished using plaster, so the veranda can be made like this. In this case, you have the opportunity to insulate it from the outside. It is enough to sheathe the veranda with insulating material. plaster the surface using a reinforcing mesh, and then apply a finishing putty or plaster. In this case, various options for plastering appear. It can be bark beetle plaster, fur coat, structural, decorative or textured plaster. There are a lot of options, and their choice depends on you. At the same time, the material will perfectly resist external influences and protect the insulation inside. So, you can kill two birds with one stone. Look at the photo, what the bark beetle looks like on the surface.

There are many difficulties associated with finishing work, the main of which is the choice of quality finishes. The fact is that over time, the finishes have become even more complex. There are many high quality, beautiful and practical materials that are used for this purpose. In this article, we will pay attention specifically to the decoration of the veranda. Those who are fortunate enough to have this useful site in their home often ask themselves a question related to decoration.

Many factors influence the choice, including the price, the general style of the house and the look of the veranda. We invite you to familiarize yourself with what can be the decoration of the veranda in the country and see a photo that will help visualize the idea.

First you need to figure out whether the look of the veranda plays a role in its decoration. The difference between a veranda and terraces or gazebos is that it has at least one wall, which is common with the house. In addition, there are verandas that are attached to the overall structure or are part of it with walls and a common roof. If we make a small summary, then we can understand that verandas can be:

You should be aware that the decoration of an open veranda is different from a closed one. Why? It's all about the influence of the atmosphere on the material. For example, in open verandas, strong, durable materials are used that can withstand the effects of the sun, precipitation, temperature extremes and other negative factors. As for the closed veranda, its decoration is much simpler. Wallpaper, tiles, and other materials are also used. With a closed type, you can save money on material without sacrificing quality, and with an open type, you cannot.

What type of veranda do you have? Answer this question and choose the material that will be suitable for this type. What can you choose from? Let's find out.

Materials for outdoor decoration

The exterior finish is characterized by improved performance and must be of high quality. Over the years, users have tested a lot of products that have shown themselves in practice. Let's start reviewing them.

Siding

This material was created for such works. It is renowned for its positive characteristics. Siding is made from different materials:

For the veranda of summer cottages, choose either vinyl or wooden siding. And if the first option is more affordable, then you will have to pay for the second. However, the material has many advantages. Products do not fade in the sun, are not afraid of moisture, are strong, durable and, importantly, beautiful. They are not afraid of temperature differences. In addition, it will not be difficult to decorate the veranda in the country with your own hands. Take a look at the photo to see how attractive the material looks.

Plastic

Used in decoration quite often. This is a range of materials with excellent properties. These are PVC plastic panels, and polycarbonate, and plastic insulating glass units. All materials have a low cost, are not afraid of moisture, are visually attractive, durable and reliable.

In addition, the veranda is trimmed with PVC panels from the inside. The material is easy to care for, it is easy to install, and the veranda will look decent. And thanks to the variety of colors, textures and other parameters, you can harmoniously decorate your veranda.

And from polycarbonate, which is quite flexible and durable, it is possible to construct structures of complex and original shapes. Together with a metal frame, the veranda will be both reliable and attractive.

Brick and stone

As far as these materials are concerned, they have always inspired confidence. Everyone considers the stone to be strong, reliable, resistant to all kinds of influences and quite beautiful. In addition, decorative stone or bricks are fireproof and are not afraid of sudden changes in temperature, which makes them one of the most durable products.

Moreover, such materials can be combined with others to make the room even more attractive. Alternatively, glass and stone, or brick and wood. It's all a matter of taste here.

Interior materials

Here the list is a little longer, since the operating conditions are different. In addition, the internal work is somewhat different from the external, since the finishing of the ceiling and floor is added, and not just the walls. What materials are suitable for these works?

Wood

Most often they stop at it. After all, wood has a lot of advantages, the main of which is environmental friendliness. We are talking about the interior, so the finish should not emit toxic substances. And the tree is durable, strong, beautiful and clean. From the available materials you can use:

Here the choice is yours. See how beautiful the wood trim looks inside.

Woodworking is not difficult and depends on the correct sequence of work. The basis for the installation of lining, block house or MDF panels is a wooden frame. It is to these slats that your finish will be fixed. In addition, materials can be installed horizontally or vertically. If the veranda is not high, then you can use a trick and set the lining vertically. And in the decoration, use light colors. In the case when the veranda needs to be expanded, fix the wall paneling horizontally. The finished building will appear wider.

Drywall

Often covered verandas are sheathed with plasterboard. This makes it possible not only to insulate the room, but also to easily align the walls and get rid of defects. Clapboard sheathing is a fairly simple event that everyone can handle.

After such work, you have a lot of opportunities for further finishing. Everything here is like in an ordinary house: you can glue beautiful wallpapers, paint the walls, or just putty them and make decorative plaster. The decision is yours. Start from the general style of the house and interior. You can even combine several different materials.

It is also important that you can decorate both the ceiling and all the walls with drywall. Then the veranda will be harmonious and beautiful. As for the interior itself, then it all depends on the purposes for which the veranda will serve. Some make a rest room out of it, since they do not have one inside. In this case, you need to install a coffee table and chairs, a sofa, take care of high-quality lighting. It will not be superfluous to dilute the room with plants. Some even make small swings on the veranda or hang a hammock.

In the event that the veranda will serve as an office, then you need to limit yourself only to a workplace and additional shelves. A table and an armchair are all you need for work. And so that extraneous sounds do not interfere with you, the veranda needs to be soundproofed.

Plastic panels

We have already considered them as outdoor decoration. Nevertheless, I would like to say that this material is, after all, suitable for work inside. Their cost is low, but the finish is good. Everything looks pretty simple, but at the same time, the coating is quite practical.

Since verandas often serve as hallways, where everyone takes off their shoes, the dirt in it is not new. And washing the plastic surface of the panels is as easy as shelling pears. In addition, if you make a floor of ceramic tiles, then cleaning will not be a problem for you on the veranda.

Let's summarize

As you can see, finishing the veranda in the country is not an easy task. It is important to decide on the material, calculate all the pros and cons and reflect on your plans. The materials that have been indicated are far from the entire assortment. It's just that they are most often used in such work, and they have won the trust of many users. But what exactly to use is up to you.

How to decorate the veranda in the country in an original way

Tired of the dusty hustle and bustle of megalopolises, the townspeople seek to acquire suburban real estate. They independently build houses that match individual tastes. Therefore, the relevance of the question of how to decorate a veranda in the country is increasing every day. Progressive technologies and innovative materials appear that turn the process of hand-made cladding into a pleasure available to every owner of country houses.

Purpose and types of verandas

Often, the terrace is a relatively small open space adjacent to one of the walls of the backyard building. However, there are also closed versions of verandas that act as a warm vestibule at the entrance to the main building. In cold weather it can be used as a dressing room, leaving outerwear and outdoor shoes. This application will protect the rooms from the penetration of winter slush and dirt.

Most often, open verandas are used as a place for family recreation, arranging a tea party in the fresh air. Friendly gatherings bring you closer to the surrounding beauties of nature, without forcing you to move away from the familiar atmosphere of the hearth.

By location, there are two main types of combined verandas:

1. A walk-through room that separates the rooms from the street, preceding the entrance to the main building. This familiar option is used in the construction of most small private houses.
2. The second type includes verandas that are attached to one of the rooms and do not have a separate exit to the courtyard.

Despite the uncomplicated design of such a structure, facing the terrace requires some effort. In this case, you can completely do on your own, creating a cozy place for family rest.

To understand how best to decorate the veranda located in the country, you should first thoroughly study the list of materials offered by specialists. Based on your own preferences, limited only by financial capabilities, you can make the right choice.

1. Wooden lining is considered the most demanded material for veranda cladding. She trims the ceiling and walls both inside and outside the extension. After special processing, the lining acquires resistance to negative influences, which allows it to withstand various tricks of nature.
2. Interior decoration of the ceiling and walls can be done with sheets of moisture-resistant plasterboard. The ability of this material to be processed is used by designers to create original interiors.
3. For a closed veranda, experts recommend that the inner lining be made using MDF. Its advantages are considered to be a presentable appearance, reminiscent of natural wood, as well as strength and durability. However, the exposure of the material to moisture, as well as significant temperature fluctuations, does not allow the use of MDF panels outside the room.
4. Products made of polyvinyl chloride for verandah decoration are becoming more and more popular. Due to the variety of colors, types and textures, you can easily choose suitable PVC panels. Attractive for novice craftsmen is the possibility of self-assembly. In addition, such panels are not afraid of water and other negative influences. Excellent appearance does not require any special tweaks when leaving. Contaminated panels can be easily washed with soapy water.
5. Siding can be used for outdoor decoration. By purchasing a material that imitates stone, brick, natural wood, you can significantly simplify the process of facing work.

Choosing from the proposed options, focus on your own taste. However, you should not save money by purchasing material from unverified manufacturers. Although the products of famous brands will cost a little more than counterfeit products, the quality is guaranteed.

Ceiling decoration

It is recommended to start with a thorough impregnation of all elements made of natural wood with a special antiseptic composition. So you can save the structure from premature decay and protect it from the encroachment of gluttonous insects.

After the antiseptic treatment, you can proceed with the installation of the frame base. The wooden lathing is made of a bar with a section of 30x50, 50x50 mm is also suitable. The frame material also requires pretreatment with antiseptic agents.

The simplest cladding option is considered to be the use of wooden lining. Fragments of the finishing material are fixed on the lathing perpendicular to the beams of the frame base. Galvanized nails are used as fasteners.

It should be noted that the ceiling finished with wooden clapboard acquires a complete look after grinding and varnishing.

Self-supporting PVC panel veranda ceiling

It will take a little more effort than covering it with natural wooden clapboard. Diligently following the proposed recommendations, you can, without any particular difficulties, finish the ceiling of the summer cottage with your own hands, saving on the costly call of a team of professional cladders.

1. The starting profile is securely fixed to the wooden lathing. Subsequently, individual plastic fragments are connected with its help into a one-piece ceiling structure.
2. Panel sheets are fixed in the grooves of the original profile. The stability and reliability of the system is facilitated by the use of special clamps. It is allowed to use self-tapping screws available to every home craftsman as fasteners.
3. Installation of the next panel is carried out in the same way of fixing in the initial profile.
4. The further process is a periodic sequence of the above manipulations.

When performing self-assembly, it is necessary to take into account the ability of the plastic material to expand when heated. The presence of a small gap of up to 20 mm will help protect the ceiling structure from troubles caused by the negative influence of heat.

The use of other materials for finishing the ceiling

If you plan to clad the veranda with siding, such a coating is quite suitable for self-decoration of the ceiling. The installation process is similar to the installation of PVC panels. In the same way, you can finish the terrace ceiling with MDF boards. Manufacturers provide the construction market with a huge selection of different types of siding and MDF, ensuring the growing popularity of these materials.

When using gypsum plasterboard sheets as a ceiling covering, it is recommended to replace the wooden frame elements with a metal profile. Installation of special elements is carried out directly on it. Such details are the basis for fixing drywall sheets. Self-tapping screws are used to fasten the fragments of the coating.

After fixing the drywall, it is recommended to prepare the surface for finishing. The ceiling must be putty and thoroughly cleaned.

Self-lining veranda walls

It is used only for closed-type premises. Open terraces do not require walls.

Finishing should begin with the formation of a frame system from wooden blocks. The accuracy of the installation is controlled by the building level.

Laying a special heat-insulating layer will allow in the future to use the veranda for relaxation and in a cool period. It is preliminarily recommended to protect the room from moisture and condensation. For this, a special waterproofing film is used, which is fixed under the insulation.

A prerequisite is the initial treatment of all wooden elements with an antiseptic composition. This precaution will protect the structure from damage resulting from decay.

The simplest option for the internal facing of the veranda with your own hands is considered to be the decoration of the walls with wooden clapboard. Also, the increasing popularity is gained by covering from MDF panels. PVC products are in no less demand.

Veranda flooring

The choice of material for the terrace floor is determined by the operating conditions of the room. Today, solid or decking, ceramic tiles, laminate and other well-known finishing materials are used as the flooring of the veranda. Much depends on financial capabilities.

The best option for a summer cottage is a floor covered with a decking or waterproof laminate. Such materials are distinguished by the availability of self-assembly, unpretentious maintenance and durability.

An alternative solution is to use modern PVC panels or traditional ceramic tiles for the flooring. Inventive and creative individuals prefer tiles due to the ability to embody their own fantasies. By arranging the fragments of the covering in a certain order, they create unique patterns and original ornaments under the feet. Wealthy owners of country estates can afford finishing with new linoleum models with improved performance characteristics, complementing a fairly respectable appearance.

External cladding

The variety of modern finishing materials does not allow for their detailed description in one article. Therefore, we will consider the most popular options.

Many summer residents tend to sheathe the outer surface of the veranda with wooden clapboard. However, even careful processing with special compounds is not able to preserve the natural beauty of natural material for a long time. Changeable weather, atmospheric precipitation leave their mark, violating the pristine beauty of the cladding.

Manufacturers supply horizontal siding, which is usually used when performing facade work, with a special locking mechanism. Such a simple device makes it easy to connect separate fragments. This quality attracts ordinary people who want to independently carry out the outer facing of the terrace.

It should be noted that the installation of siding panels is preceded by a preparatory stage. It consists in the formation of a special frame (lathing), on which the plastic elements of the outer skin will be fastened.

How to sheathe a veranda inside inexpensively

The vast majority of country houses and country houses are built with a mandatory veranda, whether heated or not. What a dacha without a veranda, a full-fledged living space, at the same time a place to store all kinds of utensils. After the completion of the construction of the building, sooner or later, you will have to decide how and how to sheathe the veranda inside, so that it is inexpensive and beautiful.

Living in a barn-like room is uncomfortable, and spending extra money is not handy.

Requirements for finishing material

Before looking for material and a way to sheathe the veranda inside, you need to look at the conditions of the room, and only then look for the right material inexpensively.

Let's dwell on the main ones:

• Indoor temperature and humidity. It depends on which side of the house the veranda is located on, sunny or shady, whether it is possible to sheathe the walls inside with materials based on cellulose fibers, or whether you have to buy plastic, inexpensively and reliably;
• The frequency of people living in the house and using the premises. For a house in which a constant temperature is not maintained, and people live with long interruptions in time, the problem of how to sheathe the walls inside turns into a question of combating water condensation;
• The age of the veranda and the entire building. There is no point in trying to sheathe the walls inside the room until the processes of shrinkage of the foundation and the building box are over.

In the simplest case, it is possible to sheathe the walls from the inside with a cement-particle board, very inexpensive, practically not afraid of dampness, does not give warping even with strong condensation. But from an aesthetic and practical point of view, most owners would like the lining inside the veranda, first of all, to be comfortable and safe for health, and only then it was inexpensive and practical. Therefore, out of more than two dozen cladding options, we will leave only the most suitable for the listed requirements.

How to sheathe a veranda with wall shrinkage, inexpensively and efficiently

Instead of the traditional vertical planking, you can sheathe the walls with horizontal padding on a cross batten. It will turn out to be inexpensive and practical. So that during shrinkage the finish does not rip off the walls, the board is stuffed with a maximum gap at the spike-groove junction and the obligatory laying of insulation, for example, from expanded polyethylene.

After three to four years, the veranda trim can be inexpensively updated:

• Remove the board, insulation and crate;
• Treat wood with antiseptic impregnation, stain and varnish;
• Lay the crate, insulation and sheathe the walls again, but with the correct gaps in the joints between the boards.

In this way, you can inexpensively sheathe any room in a house made of wood, a sauna from a bar. For brick and block buildings with significantly less shrinkage, the veranda can be immediately sheathed according to a finishing scheme.

Popular materials for veranda cladding

The modern market offers a fairly large selection of materials for decorative wall cladding, including verandas. The most popular finishes usually include:

• Lining, board, wooden lath;
• MDF or fiberboard, plates and panels;
• Plywood, OSB boards;
• Waterproof gypsum plasterboard sheets;
• PVC panels.

All of the above materials fit well into the interior of the walls of the room, do not swell with moisture and do not create a feeling of discomfort among the owners, therefore, in the question of how to sheathe a veranda inside an inexpensive photo, price and personal preferences and desires remain the determining factors.

To sheathe a veranda inside a building really inexpensively, a greater amount of work will have to be done with your own hands, and the bulk of the costs will be spent on purchasing high-quality material.

However, indoor conditions are not the same in all cases. Often, before sheathe the veranda inside the photo, it makes sense to contact a specialist for advice and explanations.

Cold Veranda Material

It is quite difficult to choose how to sheathe an unheated veranda inside. There are not many finishes that can be used inside a cold, unheated room. Most often, the list is limited to plastic panels, waterproof brands of OSB boards and coniferous lining.

The main problem that owners of unheated premises have to face is condensation that regularly emerges on the surface inside the cladding. Therefore, you should not try to sheathe the walls of a closed veranda with materials made of cellulose fibers, primarily fiberboard and MDF. Even when painted with enamels or varnished, they swell quickly, which leads to warpage and breakage of fasteners.

The best option is PVC panels. They do not rot, do not absorb moisture, the choice of colors is simply huge, and all this wealth will be relatively inexpensive when compared, for example, with clapboard made of oak or cedar.

If desired, the veranda from the inside can be sheathed with plastic with a pattern imitating valuable wood species, natural stone, or just a plain color scheme that matches the interior of the room.

For finishing with PVC, the walls of the veranda will first need to be sheathed with a supporting frame made of a galvanized profile. Metal profile strips are nailed to the walls in increments of no more than 60 cm. The easiest way is to sheathe the veranda with vertical PVC strips, in this case the profile is nailed in horizontal rows.

The walls of the veranda facing the street, before being sheathed with panels, are insulated with isolon or foil-clad polyethylene, this is inexpensive and effective. Internal warm walls can be sheathed with mineral thermal insulation with a gasket inside a layer of a vapor barrier membrane. In this case, it will be necessary to organize additional ventilation of the room, since plastic, like glass, creates an increased level of humidity from the inside.

For summer cottages, the problem of condensation is especially relevant during the onset of cold weather. After the owners move out with the first frost, a large amount of water vapor accumulates through the walls, they must be removed by flow ventilation until the low air temperature turns into frost on the walls inside the room.

The choice of PVC to sheathe the inside of the veranda of the house cannot be considered particularly successful. Plastic always remains flammable; at low temperatures, an accidental shock by a chair or an inadvertent impact can lead to cracking of the material.

Therefore, if you manage to buy inexpensively lining made of oak or larch, it is better to sheathe the room inside with wood, which will last for several decades.

Decorating the veranda with wood

Wood has always been considered the best material for any finishing work inside the veranda. The easiest way is to sheathe the walls inside the room with clapboard, both in an expensive version and relatively inexpensive, approximately at the level of PVC panels.

Standard lining is divided into four quality classes:

• Extra is the most durable and beautiful material, without a single knot or disturbance in the grain pattern. Such a tree is used for expensive finishing inside the living quarters of the house;
• The C-class is the cheapest, designed to sheathe a shed or utility room. Despite the fact that, in general, the work is inexpensive, due to the extremely low quality, it is not recommended to use verandas for interior decoration;
• Classes A, B allow some defects in the form of knots or even cracks, but most of them are located at the end of the bar. It is with this clapboard that it is best to sheathe the veranda.

Most craftsmen do not trust the information about the class indicated by the manufacturer on the packaging, most often the material turns out to be of lower quality than stated at the time of sale. Therefore, before sheathing the veranda inside with clapboard, do not be too lazy to open and discard some of the planks in order to avoid marriage when decorating the walls.

In addition to the class, the material may differ in the shape of the front surface. Samples of the most popular profiles are shown in the figure. If you want to create the impression of a log vault and walls, you can sheathe the walls inside the room with one of the types of boards - a block house.

The clapboard cladding technology practically does not differ from the technique used for the installation of PVC. Initially, the starting bar is laid, and then lining boards are laid on the previously filled crate. It is best to sheathe the walls of the veranda on stapling brackets, without glue and screws.

Larch is the most difficult to fit, but worth it. Even for the most comfortable veranda, it makes no sense to purchase a cedar or ash tree if you need to sheathe a room quickly and inexpensively. The best option would be a quality spruce or pine, which can be ordered inexpensively from a private carpentry, dried, polished and waxed.

Even an open or unheated veranda can be sheathed with such cladding. A pleasant bonus will be the smell of a coniferous forest, which appears when the walls of the veranda are heated by the sun's rays.

Conclusion

The most budget-friendly option for facing the walls of the veranda will be made of wood-fiber panels or slabs. They are relatively inexpensive, and in terms of comfort, materials made from cellulose fibers are considered one of the best.

If the room needs to be made not only warm and comfortable, but also truly beautiful, then it is best to sheathe the walls with MDF plates. It will turn out inexpensively and beautifully, but it is worth remembering that the high decorative qualities of the slab are provided due to the glued polymer film, respectively, the vapor permeability of the material is much lower than that of fiberboard. All work will be inexpensive, but there should be no places in the veranda that fall out of the ventilation zone, otherwise the accumulating condensation will quickly destroy all the work.

Veranda in the country: the best ideas for decoration

Ecology of consumption. Homestead: The veranda is designed to combine the warmth of the hearth and the beauty of the surrounding nature.

Veranda- an extension serving as a connecting link in the "house - garden" duet. It is designed to combine the warmth of the hearth and the beauty of the surrounding nature.

She also serves as a cozy corner where you can relax, enjoying the picturesque landscape, or organize fun gatherings with loved ones.

How to equip an extension, and which veranda design to choose so that it turns out to be light and comfortable, we will consider in more detail.

Closed veranda at your dacha.

One of the most significant advantages of living in a private house is the opportunity at any time of the day or night to go out into the fresh air and enjoy the scent of flowers in summer or the enchanting smell of rotten foliage in late autumn.
A closed veranda in a country house can be easily turned into a dining room where the whole family will gather for Sunday lunch: share impressions, make plans and just communicate. An important role in creating the necessary mood is played not only by the view opening from the windows, but also by the decoration of the veranda. It is she who will help you create an atmosphere of home comfort and peace.

Choice of materials
The choice of materials for finishing the veranda is not only aesthetic, but also practical. As a rule, the word "veranda" means an unheated room. In some cases, an open veranda looks more like a gazebo attached to the house, so that there is no question of heating at all. This means that the decor should be not only beautiful, but also resistant to high humidity and temperature changes.

In winter, the room will be humid, and if you use non-moisture resistant facing materials, then after two or three years the repair will have to be done again.
Usually, the bottom of the walls is clad with modern finishing material - PVC plastic wall panels. Wall surfaces from panels to ceiling are covered with moisture resistant paint.

It is not recommended to use laminate when decorating the floor on a closed veranda. Since in harsh operating conditions, in a damp room, even a moisture-resistant high-quality expensive laminate will lose its original appearance and shape.

Tiles, on the other hand, will not lose their remarkable properties and original appearance in such conditions. If you use tiles as flooring, then it is better to use large tiles, as they are easier to install. As a result, if the seams between adjacent tiles are reduced to a minimum, or even removed altogether, a smooth, visually uniform surface is obtained.

After the final finishing of the floor, it is necessary to install plastic skirting boards, as they are considered the most durable in comparison with wooden skirting boards and are not afraid of moisture.

Warming of the veranda.
Correct thermal insulation of the lower part of the walls (under the windows) and the ceiling is of great importance. The interior decoration of the veranda begins with her. If the insulation is done correctly, the room can be inhabited until late autumn.

The most budgetary option for finishing the walls of the veranda in recent years has been plastic panels. This material is resistant to high humidity and temperature extremes. In addition, it is quite easy to assemble and clean.

The disadvantages of plastic can be attributed only to low environmental friendliness and fragility - it is very easy to break it by inadvertently pushing back a chair or accidentally hitting the wall with your knee.

As a frame for PVC panels, wooden slats with a section of 30 * 20 or 30 * 10 mm or a metal profile for mounting drywall can be used. When using wood, it must be pre-treated with an antiseptic.

Helpful advice! On the walls of the veranda facing the street, it is better to use wooden slats for lathing. Fastening metal profiles can create "cold bridges", which significantly reduce the quality of thermal insulation. But for not too even internal walls, it is better to use a profile on special suspensions.

The slats must be fixed perpendicular to the direction of the panels' laying. So, if the plastic is placed vertically on the wall, then the slats are packed horizontally in increments of no more than 50 cm.

Important! The veranda walls are decorated with patterned panels from left to right. You can start the installation of plain panels from either side of the wall.

When the crate is ready, a starting profile or mounting corner is attached in the corner of the room with the help of nails or self-tapping screws. The first one is used if the adjacent wall is finished with a different material, and the second one will allow joining the PVC panels to each other.
Then the first panel is inserted into the guide profile so that the wide fixing shelf is directed towards the installation.
To fix the panel to the crate, you can use metal holders, or you can simply screw it to the rail with a self-tapping screw.

Important! If you do not use holders to mount the panels, do not over-tighten the self-tapping screw. Otherwise, the panel will "lead".

We insert the next panel so that there is no gap left, and fasten it.
Remember that PVC panels are subject to thermal expansion. To compensate for it, it is necessary to leave a gap of 2-3 cm at the top and bottom of the wall and close it with a plinth.

MDF - cheap imitation wood

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



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

Wooden lining - a classic of the genre

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

Lining - a cladding board, up to 22mm thick with special grooves that facilitate installation and joining.

This material is sheathed not only on the walls, but also on the ceiling of the veranda. After treatment with antiseptics, the lining will serve you up to 20 years. There is no need to talk about the advantages of wood over artificial materials for a long time. That there is only a delicious woody scent that will be felt on your veranda for many years.

The choice of wooden lining

First of all, it should be said that according to the production method, the lining is divided into spliced ​​and solid. In the first case, the best quality pieces of wood are joined in a special way. Despite the fact that this material looks excellent - there are no knots, cracks and other putty defects on it - it is not suitable for finishing an open veranda. At high humidity, cracks may form at the splice, which will greatly spoil the appearance of the finish.
