Paneling

Finishing work

• Our experts perform inspection of the facade and dismantle the elements that interfere with the work.
• Craftsmen prepare the base for finishing: remove loose coatings, paint residues or other old materials. Cracks and damaged areas are repaired.
• The surfaces prepared in this way are treated with a primer, which protects the walls from fungus and strengthens the base of the facade.

Note! We fasten the panels directly to the prepared walls or the assembled crate. The frame is made of metal or wood. In the example below, the walls were leveled, so our experts attached the panels directly to the base of the façade.

• Installation work begins with the beating of the horizon line around the perimeter of the building.
• According to this markup, the base profile is attached.
• Installation starts from the corner of the house. For this, the masters use corner elements. In their absence, conventional panels are used. To do this, carefully cut the edge of the element at an angle of 45 degrees. Such a joint looks imperceptible.
• We fix the panels using kits for quick installation on brick bases. Pre-drill mounting holes in the panels.

Drilling holes in the front panel and its installation

• We also use adhesive mixtures and polyurethane foam.
• After installing the first row, specialists perform work in the same sequence. The new element is installed so that it is neatly aligned with the fixed panel. We monitor the quality of insulation joining and carry out additional fastening of panels using dowels.
• During the cladding process, our specialists process the joints of the panels with polyurethane foam. This ensures the tightness of the connection. After the installation of all facade panels is completed, the joints are rubbed with a special frost-resistant mixture.

Execution of work

Tips from the masters: the benefits of using panels with clinker tiles

1. You save on the remuneration of specialists, because at the same time as the facing work is carried out, the facade is insulated.
2. When installing panels on the frame, craftsmen equip a ventilated facade - the most effective solution in modern finish buildings.
3. Work is carried out in all weather conditions and sub-zero temperatures.
4. You get a durable, maintenance-free façade. The surfaces of the clinker material are resistant to ultraviolet radiation.
5. Foundation reinforcement is not required, while the low weight of the facade panels creates minimal additional loads on the structure.

We use all types of modern facade panels, for example, products from Döcke are very popular.

Summary

Choose the best quality from professional performers. We guarantee years of trouble-free operation of the new facade. Call, find out the prices and order the finishing of the facade of the house with panels!

There is a wide variety of materials for cladding and decorating the facades of houses. The naturalness of natural stone is popular. Facing the facade of the house with plastic panels under the stone looks expensive and beautiful. Such a design, as shown in the photo below, will fit into any natural and urban environment.

Types of materials

Stone decoration will be appropriate only for new houses, since the stone is very heavy and the structures of old houses may not withstand such installation.

Stone structures are made from various materials. It can be wood, plastic, cement structures, as well as products from combined structures.
At the moment, plastic panels are very popular, as they have good performance properties and an affordable price category.

The structures serve not only to decorate the facade, but also protect it from negative natural influences. They also significantly extend the life of the building and save bearing structures from moisture, cold. The panels do not allow the penetration of noise from the external environment.

For facing the facade of the house, panels are used that are twice as thick as Wall panels. This thickness helps to resist natural influences. Also, the facade panels have a pattern of large, natural, natural stone, which has a rich color.

Cladding materials are of the following types:

• Siding.
• Metal constructions.

The properties of houses, operating parameters, as well as its durability and practicality depend on the type of finish.

Two types of stone imitation products for house cladding:

• Made from PVC single layer panels.
• Combined, functional, two-layer panels.

The second type of panel is very practical and performs two functions:

1. facade protection;
2. wall insulation.

It is wiser to install the second type of panels, as this significantly saves the time required for separate insulation and, of course, saves money.

For materials, the following types of imitations are used:

• under rubble stone;
• imitating textiles;
• under a hewn stone;
• mosaic;
• under natural stone;
• under concrete.

Features of plastic panels

Installation of structures has a number of significant advantages:

• Lightness - do not create a load on the facade.
• Racks under mechanical influences.
• After the cladding, the building takes on an improved appearance.
• A wide selection of panels of different design ideas.
• Buildings do not require additional maintenance.
• Panels can be installed independently, subject to the required technology.
• Installation does not require specialized equipment, as the panels are lightweight.
• Value for money.
• The facade, lined with panels, will serve for a long time.
• In case of damage, it is very easy to repair.
• Availability - in all stores you can find similar products.

In addition to the advantages, there are also negative countries:

• it may be difficult to choose a color, since there is a huge amount of tint range;
• panels in the presence of fire begin to melt;
• sunburn is also a negative factor.

How to make facing

When implementing self-assembly panels, you must have the appropriate devices: tape measure, level, drill, hammer and others.
Before installation, surface preparation is carried out. It should not be dusty and smooth. In cases where the base is wooden, it must be treated with specialized insect repellents.

Installation is carried out in three steps:

• Preparatory stage.
• Frame fastening.
• Basic installation.

Products are fixed on the starting and finishing profiles. Consider the installation process common to all types:

1. At the first stage, the first structure is fixed to the starting base in the lower corner.
2. Each subsequent product is attached from left to right, we form a row from bottom to top.
3. The first base is fixed with a screw, the rest are snapped into place with a vertical lock.
4. Fasten with screws.
5. The materials have the same pattern. To give a natural look, you need to move them.
6. You can make repairs at any temperature, but it is not recommended to do this below -5 degrees.
7. It is recommended to purchase designs of the same brand, since each company uses different sheet sizes.

The design of the building with natural stone goes well with metal products, trees.

The price of the panels depends on the type and functional features of the material. The cladding of the facade of the house with plastic stone-like panels shown in the photo goes well with landscape design site.

The stone-panelled private homes are sure to grab attention on the streets. When using several colors, the individuality of the building is emphasized. So finishing in gray-green tones will create Scandinavian style. Traditional colors are pastel colors. Cottages with dark cladding will fit perfectly into the woody landscape.

Stone panels will be a great addition to overall design territory of the house, and are also one of the economical options when decorating a house. Panels give the house naturalness and naturalness.

Siding is not just a boring and monotonous exterior facade decoration. There are many varieties of this material for all occasions. If you are a supporter of capital buildings, then pay attention to the facade panels under the stone, which will give the house the new kind. The material imitates large boulders, flat, rubble and other types of stone. Facade panels for exterior finish under the stone will completely transform the simplest house, and in addition it will become warmer.

Finishing the facade of the house with stone panels

Blocks for exterior decoration perform not only an aesthetic function. Facade decoration is reliable protection home from negative influences. Installation of plates on the walls of the building allows you to extend its service life, completely renew the facade without significant costs. Siding - lightweight material, which does not exert a significant load on the building. Installation of panels is simple - their installation does not require high qualification of workers, which means that the cost of work will be low.

Options for finishing the facade under the stone

Facing the house with panels under the stone is made in one or more shades of the panels. Using several colors and textures, several design elements can be distinguished. It can be windows, corners, plinth.

It is customary to install darker and larger elements on the plinth. Lighter blocks are used for walls.

Finishing of a private house facade panels under the stone of two shades

Manufacturers produce a large number of stone panels, designed for various conditions operation.

Panel types

Stone siding differs in several ways:

material;

• the presence or absence of insulation;

  fixation method.

As a material for siding use:

• fiber cement.

The dark shades of the panels make the bright windows of the building stand out well.

metal siding

Metal panels are made by stamping. Galvanized steel blocks coated with polymer protective composition, a layer of decor that reproduces the surface of the stone. By applying several layers of coating, the blocks become thicker and heavier. However, this increases the strength of the material. metal siding more expensive than vinyl.

The panels can have a different pattern, for example, the corners are “lined” with a geometric pattern

On our website you can find contacts of construction companies that offer home finishing and insulation services. You can directly communicate with representatives by visiting the exhibition of houses "Low-Rise Country".

Vinyl panels

Panels made of plastic (polyvinyl chloride), known as wall paneling, serve indoors without problems. Such material is not suitable for finishing the facade. Manufacturers have created a special composition for outdoor finishing works. It is characterized by increased strength, resistance to thermal and mechanical damage.

The main advantage of vinyl blocks is their lightness. They do not significantly increase the weight of the building. The material is plastic so vinyl siding maximally reproduces appearance natural stone.

The disadvantage is its fragility. Vinyl is inferior to metal in resistance to temperature changes, it is easy to damage during installation. It is less resistant to mechanical damage during operation. Under influence high temperature it can grow in size. This subtlety should be taken into account when calculating the number of finishing plates.

The texture of the panels imitates granite stone

Acrylic

By technical specifications acrylic siding similar to vinyl. It has the same advantages as vinyl, but is more resistant to high and low temperatures. The material is neutral to chemical influences.

Acrylic stone effect panels for exterior finish facades cost slightly higher than vinyl counterparts.

Volumetric facade panels imitating rocky stones

fiber cement

A relatively new type of finish is fiber cement siding. Of these types of panels, this is the heaviest. The weight of the blocks is 15 kg, the thickness is 10 mm. They have increased strength and durability.

The cost of fiber cement siding is much higher than other types. For facades, consumers prefer lighter and cheaper types of slabs.

The color and texture of the finish reproduce granite, rocky stone, rubble or burnt stone. Via modern technologies you can reproduce natural stone with maximum accuracy. The similarity of siding is not only visual, but also qualitative.

Imitation rubble stone

Some types of blocks are not only decorative - they have insulation on the inside, so that insulation work can be combined with facade decoration.

If the building is located in a zone with a warm climate, finishing the house with fiber cement stone panels does not require additional wall insulation. If the house is located in a cold climate area, additional insulation of the building will be required.

Therefore, it makes no sense to buy siding with insulation in cold regions. Installation of blocks with a warm layer does not differ from the installation of conventional panels. The cost of warm siding is more than the cost of simple siding.

Each block is equipped with locks. With their help, fragments are fastened. Fixation is carried out by snapping the locks.

Advantages and disadvantages of stone facade panels

Stone siding has a number of positive qualities:

long service life (50 years);

resistant to weather factors (wind, high and low temperatures, high humidity, exposure to sunlight);

not subject to corrosion;

universal - suitable for installation anywhere - on walls, plinth;

easy to mount;

there is a wide range on the market;

Facade panels imitating burnt stone

has a low cost;

does not need care;

has a low weight (the load on the surface of facade panels imitating stone is 3-5 kg/m², a natural stone- 53 kg / m², brick - 34 kg / m²);

resists insect damage and fungal infections.

Stone effect panels for exterior façade cladding are inferior natural material in strength and durability, but not essential. Against the backdrop of a large number of advantages, this disadvantage fades.

Plinth panels under a stone

Socle (literally - a shoe with a wooden sole) is a foot located on the foundation of a building. The load on this part of the buildings is the greatest, therefore, increased requirements for strength are put forward to the base itself and to the finishing materials.

The industry produces special plinth plates, taking into account the installation site. These are blocks made of a stronger material with increased resistance to damage, temperature extremes, moisture, wind, and ultraviolet radiation. fiber cement siding ideal for plinth installation.

Often the basement of the house is finished with contrasting plates. Installing slabs on the plinth gives the building a more beautiful look.

It is this decoration of the facade of the house with stone-like panels in the photo below:

The use of siding darker than the base color has become a popular home decorating element. Socle blocks have a larger texture. This makes the lines of the house more expressive.

Step by step installation

For self-installation of sandwich panels, you should prepare:

• screwdriver;

• centimeter;

  hacksaw / grinder;

  pencil/marker/chalk.

Before mounting the walls should be prepared. Remains are removed cement mortar, smudges of moisture, metal elements. The surface is treated with a special compound that prevents the appearance of fungi and insects. After the solution dries, proceed to the installation of blocks.

Installation of plates is carried out on the prepared crate. If the laying of insulation is planned, heat-insulating blocks are first mounted.

Stone siding installation step by step.

A crate is installed on the wall. For this use wooden blocks or metal rails. The slats are arranged in increments of 30 - 40 cm. They perform not only the function of supporting the blocks, but also help to ventilate the walls.

Several types of profiles are used in the crate

The starting bar is set. It is adjusted according to the level and the rest of the blocks are guided by it.

Corner panels, window panels are mounted. Blocks are installed around doorways.

The following panels are carefully fastened to the corner blocks. Locks should be snapped in a smooth motion so as not to break the structure.

Fixing with self-tapping screws is carried out with a small allowance. The hat is not screwed into the crate until it stops, leaving 1-2 mm.

Each next row of panels is leveled. Sandwich panels should be mounted from left to right.

First, blocks are installed on a flat surface. After installing all the panels, the corner parts are fixed. They are easily snapped onto the mounting profile.

Main condition quality installation sandwich panels - accuracy. The German Holzplast Wandstein panels have proven themselves well. special attention base blocks are required.

Video description

An example of mounting Holzplast panels, see the video:

When calculating the number of panels, add 10 - 15% to the resulting number. This must be done, since during installation the blocks have to be cut.

Before installing the crate, you should first make markings in increments of 30 - 40 cm. After the position of the beams is accurately determined, they are installed on the wall. The correct installation of the strips is checked by a horizontal and vertical level.

Screws are screwed in the center of the holes.

After installing the start panel, pull the thread from the panel to the opposite corner. Correct tension is checked by level. According to this landmark, all lower blocks are installed.

The installation of basement blocks is completed with the installation of a drainage system. It is placed on top horizontal surface plinth. For this, metal elements are used.

Where is the best place to buy panels?

Manufacturers produce sandwich panels designed for various financial capabilities of the end customer. In Moscow, the cost of plates starts from about 900 rubles per m². By purchasing facade slabs from certified manufacturers, it must be remembered that, unlike fakes, the price of the material is also affected by the rental of premises, the number of intermediaries and the remuneration of store employees. But in return, you get quality products, which are guaranteed.

In addition, many manufacturers are beginning to master the sale of stone facades in online stores, which allows buyers to save money and time.

Many manufacturers offer a wide range of materials for decorating the facades of buildings. Most original way to achieve the uniqueness of the appearance of the building is the creation of hinged ventilated facades. This technology differs not only in variability colors panels, but also the shape, texture and even the name of the materials.

Panels made of polymers (plastic) are widely used.

Advantages

The plastic panels are whole line undeniable advantages in comparison with other materials intended for finishing facades and even in front of metal panels:

• Light weight design;
• The durability of the material;
• Low price of material and installation works;
• Ease of maintenance and repair;
• A wide range of types and shapes.

In our country, stone was considered a traditional finishing material, which is why the range of plastic panels imitating a stone surface is the most extensive both in terms of textures and colors.

Types of plastic panels under the stone

The most popular in the market of finishing materials are plastic panels that imitate hewn, rubble or natural stone. . At the same time, manufacturers provide a full line of necessary bends, corners and strips of a given texture and color.

It is especially worth noting that different panel manufacturers use different sheet sizes, so it is advisable to purchase plastic panels for the base and walls of one manufacturer. Mounting and fastening systems are practically the same for different manufacturers. All panels are mounted sequentially from the starting bar, while the next panel is inserted into the previous one with grooves and fixed.

Manufacturers

On the market of finishing materials, there are a huge number of offers for the sale of plastic panels, but many of the selling companies are resellers, not manufacturers. The main manufacturers of plastic facade panels are: Nailite, Novik, Docke (Deck), FineBer, Holzplast, Vox and Alta profile.

Different manufacturers vary not only the price finishing material, but also such parameters as colors, panel size, quality of raw materials.

You will find out what Vox siding is praised for.

Alta profile

Since 2007, the Russian company Alta-profile has been actively participating in the facade systems market. A relatively large number of series of colors for the design of plastic panels allows it to compete with more eminent manufacturers.

The novelties of this company were the panels of the Canyon series, which almost immediately began to be produced in five color categories: Colorado, Montana, Nevada, Arizona and Kansas.

What you need to know before buying.

Moreover, one of the lowest prices for the panel is 415 rubles.

The technology of mounting plastic panels under the stone

Installation of panels can be divided into 3 stages:

• Preliminary surface preparation;
• Frame device;
• Panel installation.

Mounting the panels begins with the installation of the start and finish profiles, as well as guide profiles. The installation of the panels themselves is carried out as follows: the panel is inserted into one guide profile, bent in an arc and then inserted into another guide profile. The side on which the small fastening shelf of the panel is located is inserted into the starting profile. In order to bring the panel into the start profile, you should use the rule and the mallet.

Video on the installation of plastic facade panels

Plastic facade panels are enough interesting solution for the facade of the building.

Not every homeowner allows his financial condition to ennoble the house stone tiles or decorative bricks. The point is not only the cost of materials, but also the complexity, high cost of installation. To insulate and give the house more aesthetic appearance there are special facade panels. Such panels have many advantages, including a low price.

The main advantage - easy solution in beautifying the building. Panels are very simple products that have become popular due to their external qualities. They are able to turn an ordinary building into a beautiful and well-kept home.

The first thing you should pay attention to is the price. Front panels are made of qualitative and inexpensive polymer. The production of such panels is much cheaper than the production facade bricks and decorative stones.

The installation method is different. If a few fasteners and screws are enough for panels, then much more is needed for brick and stone. Stone and brick are laid out much longer, due to the peculiarities of their installation - cement, sand, water are needed. In addition, the stones must be adjusted to each other. The panels are installed on a pre-installed frame. Under them can be installed various heaters from mineral wool and foam.

What are the panels for?

First of all, panels were invented not only as a means to decorate the facade of a building, but also as a way to hide additional insulation. Their main plus is that in the space between the panel and the wall, where there are frame wastelands, you can additionally put a layer of insulation.

Unlike decorative stones and bricks, this method of improving the facade additionally insulates and allows you to keep the heat inside the building. In addition, as already mentioned, the panels are very easy to install with your own hands, without the use of third-party equipment, materials and people.

Advantages of facade panels

This method of finishing the facade was invented as a cheap alternative. In addition, it is much easier and faster to independently install this kind of facade and related structures than to lay out a facade of tiles, bricks and other materials. In addition, the plastic from which the products are made is durable.

It is also noted for convenience during operation. Such a facade is easy to wash with water from a hose. In addition, this method of finishing the facade allows you to simultaneously insulate the building itself. Additional components or special panels are used.

A significant plus of polymer panels is giving any shape and visual design. The panels are painted for various materials - wood, the same bricks and stones. This is their versatility.

The most important thing is not only the cheapness of the panels themselves, but also the related materials. For work, a minimum of materials and forces is required. Among the shortcomings, one can single out the susceptibility of some products to mechanical damage. Another disadvantage is that in case of damage to one of the components of the facade, not only the replacement of the corresponding part will be required, but also the dismantling of the entire facade. However, it is much better and cheaper than replacing and repairing a facade made of natural materials.

Basic rules for installing panels

Before you install facade panels, you need to choose the material from which they will be made, design and shape. In addition, preparation consists in acquiring consumable(screws, dowels) and tools (screwdrivers, grinders, screwdrivers). Here the main advantage over brick and stone is observed - there is no need to purchase cement, sand.

In addition, the panel itself can not only decorate the walls of the building, but also the foundation. The building will look strong and, at the same time, an elegant monolith.

Next, you should carry out preliminary measurements of the house itself. This is necessary to determine the quadrature of the panels, an approximate count of the number of screws and dowels. After measurements, it would be best to draw the approximate location of the panels, the creation of the frame structure itself. This general scheme work on the installation of the future facade of the house.

Schematically, the preparation looks like this:

The most important rule for installing panels is to follow the diagram. The first layer, the first panel laid, is the most important part. If it is installed incorrectly, then the entire structure will have to be redone in the future. A level should be used to determine the installation angle of each panel. Thus it is possible to avoid uneven laying of panels.

Types of facade panels

Choose for yourself the material from which the panels will be made. Today, in addition to polymer panels, there are metal, more durable. At the same time, plastic retains heat better. At this stage, the issue of the appearance of the facade is also decided. Panels can be stylized as a tree, decorative brick, stone and more. There are a lot of design solutions.

Type of panels	Material
	Stainless steel, aluminum
	The panel sheets are made of styrofoam/expanded polystyrene. Tiles - pressed polymer
	Polyvinyl chloride (in other words, plastic)
	pressed wood
	Plastic

These are the most demanded and popular panels. There are certain differences not only in the material, but also in the installation of the facade itself. Each of the types of the future facade will differ externally.

Metal siding installation

Everything starts identically: materials are prepared, the future design is sketched out, installation is carried out. The profiles are installed in accordance with the drawn diagram at right angles to the base of the house in 50 cm increments. Support profiles must be secured with dowels.

After installation vertical profiles transverse bulkheads must be installed. Here you will need to make paws on each side of the panel for attaching to the profile. There are ready-made frames right away, but such structures have a clear drawback - they must be attached directly to the walls of the house. If the wall is made of foam concrete, then such a frame may collapse. Also, the frame is not recommended to be installed on silicate brick. Red brick walls are also not suitable for a finished frame. In addition, such designs are more expensive than self-installed.

After the bulkheads have been installed, various kinds of insulation can be inserted into the resulting rectangles.

Once the insulation is installed, the panels can be fixed to the frame. Each panel has holes for screws. This allows you to hide the seams and not disturb the aesthetic appearance of the facade.

Schematically, the setup looks like this.

Stage 1. Drawing up a diagram of the house and the future frame for the panels.

Stage 2. Cleaning the building of unnecessary decorative elements.

Stage 3. Production of an external frame on the walls of a building or installation of a finished one.

Stage 4. Installing the tide, starting bar and the very first row of panels. A level is used to determine the correct angle.

Stage 5. The following rows are installed, followed by fastening to the frame.

We insert the next panel into the locking part of the previous one and repeat the installation

Stage 6. Installation of the final plank, spotlights and decorative elements.

In the future, similar installation elements are stored for each type of panel. This is also a plus of the panels - their installation is similar, which means that you can easily learn how to install the facade.

Metal siding is a good option for summer cottages and one-story houses. Such panels perfectly repeat the effect of wood. In addition, the products are perfectly processed without unnecessary tools. Easy care - just wash the contaminated part of the house with water.

Decorative panels for tiles (clinker)

Relatively new material, giving an aesthetic appearance to the facade and insulating the house at the same time. Such panels have two components - a base made of insulation and an outer coating. The coating can be stylized for any material - brick, stone, etc.

Such panels are fastened very quickly, due to easy way. For fastening, you will need a spatula, construction glue, a prepared frame. The latter is not necessary, since such panels can be mounted immediately on the wall. The frame serves to install an additional layer of insulation.

The panels are fastened as follows - a solution of building glue is applied to the notched trowel. Regarding mortar, each tile manufacturer specifies the proportion formula required for installation. Glue is applied to the product, which is applied to outer wall or frame. After, the panel comes off after three minutes, and is again attached to the surface. This method is necessary in order to increase the adhesion strength.

Between the joints, the panels can be glued with construction adhesive, and for additional strength, the panels are fixed with screws. The only drawback of such panels is their high cost. In return, you get not only beautiful facade but also a warm home.

Most likely, this best option not only improve the appearance of the facade of the building, but also insulation. Such panels look the most attractive, because they take the form of various materials and products from them. The house can turn into a stone fortress.

In addition, in case of damage to one of the parts of the facade, there is no need to disassemble the entire structure. Enough to pick up right size panel, remove the damaged one and install a new one.

The main recommendation is to install in the warm season, since the glue may not harden correctly when low temperatures, and the whole structure will not hold firmly on the wall. Each manufacturer indicates on the packaging at what air temperatures it is most correct to mount the panel.

Fiber cement panels for plastering

Such products have a number of advantages over others:

• the weight of such products is insignificant, there is no load on the walls and frame;
• high thermal insulation. In addition, you can additionally install insulation between the frame and the panel;
• good condensate drainage. The walls of such a facade seem to "breathe".

However, these panels are not without drawbacks. The most important of them is fragility. Products are subject to mechanical damage. At the same time, the replacement of one panel entails the processing of the entire frame.

Another plus is the installation method. Such panels are installed in the same way as the above metal siding.

Step by step, the whole installation looks like this:

Perhaps one of the most expensive types of panels, but the most beautiful. The panels are made from pressed sawdust, treated with special solutions for strength and durability. However, if you do not take care of such a facade regularly (every two seasons), then it quickly becomes unusable. Moreover, this way finishes fit only for one-story houses, since the panels are heavy, the frame may not be able to withstand.

As in the case of metal siding, wooden panels are mounted on a prepared frame. Installation methods are identical:

The above panels can be replaced with longer ones. The advantage of such panels is that they are fixed immediately to the wall one after another in a row. The length of such products is 6 meters. It's over fast way installation. But in order to complete the work on the facade, you need at least two people. One person will not cope with such work, as the panels may not be installed correctly.

In order to cut off the unnecessary part of the panel, it is recommended to use a grinder. She will most quickly cope with such a product and evenly cut off part of the panel.

The complexity of such products lies in their mass. For installation, it is best to call an assistant. So, the process will be optimally fast and correct.

PVC panels

PVC siding is the easiest and cheap way decorate the facade of the building. Such panels are popular for several reasons: ease of installation; low cost; huge color options. Of the shortcomings, it is worth noting that such panels are made of plastic and any facade will look plastic even at the farthest distance.

This type of panel is installed exclusively horizontally. For work, you will need a construction or any other knife. In addition, a puncher will be needed. You will also need a level to determine the angle of the panels, as well as a hammer for driving nails.

Initial stage PVC installations panels is a preliminary inspection of the house. It is necessary to determine the location of the first row of panels. In the case of a new building, it is recommended to install panels from the beginning of the foundation. Also, PVC panels can be installed from the initial row of the old finish.

Next, you should install the initial frame, namely: corners, both external and internal, platbands, first strips for attaching panels. Installation begins from the corners. The gap between them and the eaves should not be more than 6.5 mm.

The most critical stage, which will depend on further fate the entire facade - installation of the first strip of panels. It is important to install the first strip of fasteners as correctly as possible, since the fastening of the panel itself depends on it. If the strip was laid evenly, then the panel will be even.

On windows and doors it is necessary to install platbands, ebbs and linings. And after the completed steps, the installation of all the remaining rows of the facade begins. The top panel is inserted into the profile and nailed, but not completely. Between the panels there should be an interval of 0.4 cm, and between other components - no more than 6 mm. In order to avoid vertical overlaps, it is recommended to install the panels at half the factory mark. So the joints will not be visible from the front side.

When installing panels, remember that parts of the products will need to be cut off. For this, a construction knife is used. A ruler and level are also needed to more accurately measure the angle and draw a straight line on the product. We draw a line on the panel in the place where you need to cut off a piece, carefully draw it several times with a knife. Plus plastic - it is ideal for such manipulations.

You need to be extremely careful, because mechanical damage are very visible on such material.

Such panels are most in demand because of their ease of installation and low cost. In addition, PVC products are installed at various heights of the building, as they are very light. Installation of such panels is simple and does not require much time.

The final step is to install the top row of panels. Only whole panels are needed for the top row. Besides, last panel closed with a special profile for water flow.

If you pay attention to the installation methods, then there are no fundamental differences. There are certain nuances that should be considered when installing panels yourself:

1. The bottom layer is the most important. An evenly laid or installed panel is the key to correct and successful work. In the case of improper installation, there is a high probability of replacing the entire structure.

   

2. The frame is an important part. In addition to clinker panels, other products need a frame. It will minimize the load on the walls of the house and distribute it correctly. In addition, various heaters can be installed in the space between the wall and the tile thanks to the frame.

   

   

3. The seams of the panels are perfectly hidden behind each other when properly installed.

   

4. The minimum number of tools - you need a construction (preferably) knife to cut off excess parts of the panels, a screwdriver, a level, a ruler. In addition, the installation of panels does not take much time.
5. If you feel the difficulty to install the panel yourself, without a specialist, hiring one person is enough. In the future, observing the work, you can easily repeat all the work done for other buildings.
6. Large field for design solutions. Most of the products are stylized as stone, wood and decorative bricks. The house will look rich and elegant.

   

This is what a person needs to know if he decides to do the installation of panels on his own. The process is not technically complex. It is necessary to act carefully and carefully to achieve the desired result.

It is worth noting that the panels were created not only to improve the appearance of the building, but also to hide various kinds of insulation. Moreover, the panels allow you to hide not one, but even two or three layers of insulation. It all depends on the type of products, the height of the frame and the correct installation.

In addition, panels can and should be used to insulate not only residential premises. Such a move as insulation and the use of panels for the facade of the building is used on industrial enterprises. For large rooms this is a huge plus as a heat saving inside the building. For the industry, PVC panels are most in demand due to the ratio of price and quality.

First of all, you need to prepare the place of work. Items to be dismantled storm system, lamps and more. This is necessary in order not to damage the panels themselves and related products.

Installation of panels must be accurate. They must slide on top of each other to easily position the corresponding panel in the correct position. After all the panels are installed and fixed, the result is obvious - a smooth and beautiful wall.

The resulting overlaps do not need to be sealed. It would be most correct not to use such sealants, since they will disrupt heat transfer and the removal of condensate from the building.

The knife is one of the most necessary tools. With it, it is necessary to adjust the length of the panels. In the case of metal siding and wood paneling, the knife is replaced by a grinder. It must be remembered that even corners are necessary for correct joint panels.

After installing the facade, the most important thing is maintenance. If you take care of the panels properly, the design will not lose its appearance and will last a very long time.
