The attractive appearance of any building - residential or public - depends on how competently the facade is finished. In addition to the decorative function, it contributes to the achievement of reliable protection of the walls from the effects of external factors. To ensure the durability of operation, it is important to responsibly and competently choose facing materials.
Today there is a huge amount of materials, thanks to which the decorative finishing of facades can be made in any stylistic solution. Moreover, each homeowner chooses a material that will meet the requirements of the aesthetic appearance of the surface, reliability, resistance to various influences, as well as durability.
So, one of the most popular finishing materials is vinyl siding. Appeared in Russia not so long ago, this material has already gained popularity among buyers. The essence of such a cladding is the use of panels that are sheathed walls. The panels are easy to use and install, a wide range of colors, excellent appearance, but you can not expect great strength from them. Also not very strongbut outwardly attractive material is lining.
Facade decoration can also be done with the help of stone - artificial or natural. Such surfaces are strong, durable, which is the main requirement of most buyers. Modern technologies have contributed to the fact that even the simplest stone has an incomparable texture, and in terms of color performance, today a wide selection of facing materials is offered.
When using stone materials for facade decoration, it is worth proceeding from what size and style the building will be. For example, a castle-style house or mansion should be lined with dark-colored materials: diorite, granite, gabbro. If you want to create a light, airy facade, it is better to use limestone or marble. In any case, you should choose a stone that will be durable and frost-resistant, because these properties are the most important for operation in Russian climatic conditions.
The facade decoration with plaster also looks spectacular. Today you can choose different types of it: cement-sand, facade or decorative, thanks to which wall surfaces can be given a very different look. At the same time, the peculiarity of the material is its fire resistance and high rates of heat and sound insulation. The most natural type of raw material is cement-sand, which, apart from sand and cement, does not contain any chemical additives.
Facade decoration with decorative plaster is an opportunity to create an expressive and individual exterior. The cheapest type of this decorative material is acrylic, but it is not resistant to temperature extremes. If you add quartz sand, rock cuts or stone chips to the plaster, you can achieve the effect of imitation of expensive finishing materials.
