We paint the ceiling with the "correct" paint
Painting the ceilingPainting is the oldest, most traditional, easiest way to decorate your ceiling. But modern technologies have made some adjustments to this method. The surface needs not only to be cleaned, to apply a primer, plaster and putty, but to select the "right" materials for these purposes. It is imperative to choose a primer with antibacterial additives, they will prevent mold from developing in your bathroom. Also, be sure to choose a putty that is intended for use in damp rooms.
There will be no difficulties with paint, but it should also be special. You can take paint on a latex, acrylic, silicone base - the choice is very large, just read the instructions carefully.
We make a suspended ceiling
Such ceilings are of two types - slatted and tiled. The rack structure consists of a frame and modules of different sizes, which will be the surface of the ceiling. They are most often made of steel or aluminum, and the variety of colors scatters your eyes - more than 50 shades! The most relevant today are “mirror”, golden colors or imitating a chrome surface.
Tiled ceilings will also look very impressive. Decorative panels can be made of metal, plasterboard or mineral fiber. You can generally make glass panels in the form of a stained-glass window and supplement with hidden lighting. It's quite expensive, but it will look amazing! The disadvantages of such ceilings include the fact that they significantly reduce the height of the room - up to 15 centimeters. But a big plus is the ease of replacing part of the ceiling and placing communications behind it.
Stretch ceilings - practicality and convenience
Stretch ceiling - the "youngest" type of coating, but has already gained immense popularity. The bathroom will take on a modern and stylish look. Vinyl ceilings in a wide variety of colors give plenty of room for imagination and are very practical.
The coating is very light, but it can withstand the weight of up to 100 liters of water, and after draining it will return to its original shape without the slightest damage to its appearance. Waterproofness, ease of installation, absence of condensation and the ability to implement all your design ideas make the stretch ceiling an ideal solution for your bathroom.
