What is a rough finish at home. What is rough construction work

The walls in the house are of great importance. They take up the largest floor space and set the tone for design.


Walls from vulture panels before finishing

Expensive furniture, exquisite decorative elements and modern decoration surfaces look beautiful only on perfectly flat walls, without cracks and other defects. This is possible if the rough finishing of the walls is done correctly and efficiently.

Types of rough finishing

Starting wall decoration is the creation of the main surface for the finishing decorative trim, that is, this is the alignment of the walls and the elimination of defects. This stage of the repair is started when all the hidden communications (electrical wiring, water supply, sewer pipes small) and a flat floor. There are two ways to level walls: plastering and plasterboarding.


If the house is made of bricks monolithic reinforced concrete or concrete slabs, then in such rooms both methods of rough finishing are used. Primary plastering with cement, plaster and polymer mixtures gives a more durable supporting structure, but the process itself is very laborious, messy and lengthy. With the help of drywall sheets, walls can be leveled much faster, and during work there is no dust and dirty waste.

If the house is of frame type made of SIP panels, then the surface is leveled by OSB plates on which the gypsum board is installed. The finish can be very diverse:

  • putty with painting;
  • wood trim;
  • putty and wallpapering;
  • ceramic tiles, etc.

Stages of primary wall decoration with plaster

For large irregularities of old walls, it is advisable to use plaster mixtures. Modern plasters are not subject to shrinkage and can be applied to the surface in a large layer, more than 5 cm.The plastering process consists of the following stages:

  1. Preparing old walls. It involves removing dust and dirt, plastering potholes and cracks, impregnating with a primer.
  2. Fastening to the surface of metal beacons, set on a level, and plaster mesh.
  3. Plastering by sketching or spreading. With significant irregularities, more than 2 cm, the plaster is applied in two steps: the first time the mixture is poured, and they wait until this layer dries. Then they throw in a second layer and stretch it with a smoothing board or a rule. If you have no knack for throwing, you need to immediately apply the mixture with a trowel. First, areas with a large curvature are plastered, then the solution is applied to the entire area.
  4. After the surface has completely dried, the beacons are removed and the walls are impregnated with a primer.

This method of rough finishing is also called "wet".

Stages of primary wall decoration with plasterboard

AT frame houses rough work do with walls using the following materials:

  • metal or wood profiles for the frame;
  • OSB, chipboard plates, drywall sheets;
  • vapor barrier and waterproofing films;
  • insulating materials such as mineral wool, fiberglass, extruded foam, etc.;
  • painting non-woven fabric;
  • putty mixtures.

To the merits frame house it can be attributed to the fact that we build it very quickly, and interior decoration is done at any time of the year. Houses made of SIP panels are finished with a "dry" method, and you only need to provide warm and dry air in the room for working with materials.

And this is possible if the finishing starts from the technical room, in which it connects and starts working heating equipment... A couple of weeks after turning on the heating, rough work on the walls in the house begins.

Stages of wall decoration in a private house:

  1. Installation of a wooden or steel frame under the gypsum board. It consists of UD and SD profiles. UD - guide strips along the entire perimeter of the walls, and SD - inserts that form a grid for fixing the plates. On the walls and ceiling, the frame is marked, with a plumb line from the ceiling, the places where the rack profiles will be attached are determined on the floor. To give the frame reliability, it is attached to the main wall with suspensions.
  2. If you plan to hang heavy lamps and other objects on the walls, you should provide the frame with rigidity and impact resistance. To do this, boards 4-5 cm thick are attached to the wall itself and to the frame.
  3. Installation of gypsum board on the frame. Plasterboard sheets are very fragile, it is better to work with them with a partner. Fasten the gypsum board with self-tapping screws with a hidden head at a distance of 1.5 cm from the edge of the sheet. There are three attachment points: on the sides and in the middle. Sheets are fastened end-to-end.
  4. In concrete and brick houses you can attach drywall directly to the main surface using glue. The glue is chosen specifically for the type of main walls. This method is very fast, if the main surface is flat, with significant curvature to level the walls with plasterboard on glue is problematic.
  5. Puttying. it final stage rough surface treatment. It is produced with mineral (cement and gypsum) or polymer (dispersion) putty. Painting interlining is glued to the joints between the plates and pressed with a trowel. In order to completely align the joints, we go over them with putty and smooth them perfectly. After complete drying, we putty the entire surface with a starting mixture with grains of 0.6 mm.
  6. When the first layer has dried, it is primed and a finishing putty with grains of 0.3 mm or more is applied. They are waiting for complete drying, and the wall for decorative finishing is ready.

Other options for rough finishing

OSB slabs are also used in utility or utility rooms. Their structure is such that when the temperature drops, the sheets do not become wet and do not warp like gypsum boards. Partitions in the house are made of magnesite plates and chipboard sheets.


Glass-magnesite slab structure

The walls of cottage-style houses are trimmed with wood panels or beams, but the wood must first be treated with antiseptic and other substances so that it does not collapse.

Advantages of Wet and Dry Roughing Options

Each of the methods of rough work with walls has its pros and cons, consider them.

The advantages of plaster:

  1. The plastered walls are impact-resistant and durable. A well-made repair will last more than 30 years.
  2. Plaster mixes are cheaper than drywall, although the services of craftsmen will cost more than in the other case.
  3. In bathrooms and rooms that are not regularly heated, it is better to plaster the walls.

The advantages of drywall:

  1. Working with it takes half the time, the sheets have a perfectly flat surface and it is much easier to achieve the result.
  2. GKL walls are also very strong, this is achieved by reinforcing the profile with boards and two layers of drywall.
  3. It is very convenient and quick to construct arches, decorative niches, alcoves, niches for cabinets and other architectural solutions from gypsum plasterboard.
  4. All walls in frame houses are made using insulating and soundproofing materials, which are located under the gypsum board. These walls are warm and soundproof.
  5. Any decorative wall decoration can be done on drywall.

conclusions

Any renovation or construction involves cash costs. Before you start decorating the walls, you need to think over the layout of the room, inspect the walls for defects, study the cost of building materials and calculate the approximate costs. You also need to take into account your skills and experience, then you will quickly decide which version of the rough finish suits you best.

Choosing an apartment in a new building, buyers are often faced with the question of which finishing option to prefer - "fine" or "rough". In other words, which is better: pay more and move into an apartment already prepared for living, or pay less during the construction phase, and then repair and equip the apartment completely to your liking?

Let's take a closer look at what is hidden under the definitions of "rough" and "fine" finish.

There is a notion that in the case of a "rough" finish, an apartment is purchased from the minimum finishing works, namely: there are load-bearing walls and walls according to the project layout; the walls are not plastered; there is a floor screed; the apartment has heat, water, electricity, gas, an entrance door is installed, as well as windows according to the project. "Fine" finishing, in addition to all of the above, implies the implementation of cosmetic finishing work, including the sticker of wallpaper, linoleum flooring, installation of plumbing, electrical appliances, and so on.

However, it is important to understand that the picture drawn above is very conditional - it reflects only a generally accepted concept that has no legal basis.

How do lawyers answer the question, what is rough and fine finishing?

"target \u003d" _blank "\u003e (Legal Center "EGIDA"):
“There are no standards established by law. As a rule, the customs of business turnover are in force, and generally accepted concepts used in construction are common. However, I dare to note that if the contract provides for the construction of an apartment in accordance with the project, it is necessary to find out what the project provides in this case, to what extent should be completed construction works».

"Rough" and "fine" finishing - these are just common terms, while only those provisions that are fixed on paper at the time of the conclusion of the contract have real force.

What can a shareholder count on, in whose contract it is written that the apartment is rented out with a "rough" finish. According to A.A. Kovshutin, this is a box of an apartment with interior partitionspossibly partially or completely plastered with cement or lime mortar. Cold and hot water supply risers were supplied without internal wiring... The apartment has been wired without installing electrical appliances. Heating devices are installed, wooden windows are installed (can stand plastic windows it is possible for a fee). The front door is an ordinary wooden one. In other words, this is a bare box with all the necessary communications for renting a home. "The main thing that should provide for a" rough "finish new apartment - this is the conformity of the planning with the design, smooth walls, that is, all surfaces must be flat, strictly horizontal or vertical, without gaps, the wiring must comply with SNiP, the power supply cables must correspond to the power consumption established by the project, there must be ducts and other engineering communications corresponding to the project " - the lawyer notes.

Unlike a "rough" one, an apartment with a "fine" finish can represent everything that is listed for a "rough" finish, plus:
- the floor must be aligned with the existing floor floor covering (linoleum, laminate, parquet board, etc.);
- the walls should be plastered, leveled, and have a wall covering (paint, wallpaper, decorative tiles, etc.);
- sockets and switches must be installed on the walls;
- All plumbing fixtures and metering devices must be installed in the shared construction facility;
- depending on the project, either a gas or an electric stove must be installed and connected in the kitchen of the apartment;
- the entrance door and interior doors must either be made of a material that does not require painting, or must be painted;
- windows and doors on the loggia must be made of either plastic or wood, in the latter case they must be painted;
- the ceiling of the apartment must be leveled and painted;
- the apartment must be provided with heat, water and electricity supply, if there is a gas supply according to the project, all gas appliances must be connected and pressurized;
- an elevator in an apartment building must be put into operation and function.



The difference between "finishing" and "rough" is that when buying such housing there is a possibility of settling in after signing the acceptance certificate, the lack of "finishing" finishing is that this finishing usually uses cheap materials and equipment, not meeting modern requirements, and the quality of work can leave the best.

In any case, the project documentation and, of course, the contract concluded between the shareholder and the developer should serve as the basis and fulcrum for accepting an apartment. Referring specifically to the contract and to the project documentation, you can make a claim to the developer or defend your case in court, if the need arises.

However, often questions arise not only about the list finishing materials and the form in which the apartment is rented. Having paid for an apartment with a fine finish, the shareholder sees that they have installed plumbing fixtures, windows or doors of the wrong brand that was promised. What can be done in this situation?

http://law.vdolevke.ru/expert/87016/ "target \u003d" _blank "\u003e Andrey Alexandrovich Kovshutin (Legal Center "EGIDA"):
“When signing the contract, in addition to other issues, it is necessary to obtain as much information as possible about the subject of the equity participation agreement, in what state it is planned to rent the apartment and transfer it to the shareholder. This information should be reflected as fully as possible in the equity participation agreement. It is obvious that it is necessary to include a project plan for an apartment in the contract, with a description of the decoration of each room, the materials used, as well as installed plumbing and other devices, including utility metering devices.

If the shareholder found that materials not provided for were used during the construction, he must notify the developer about this in writing, demanding clarification on this fact, as well as the elimination of the indicated deficiency during the construction period. "

A participant in shared construction can demand fulfillment of obligations from the developer only if these obligations are secured by an agreement, oral promises of the Developer's representatives regarding certain characteristics of plumbing, doors, windows, etc. cannot be taken into account.

High-quality overhaul is divided into two stages:
- rough,
- finishing (finishing).

Rough repairs for the aftermarket

When renovating an apartment or office space on the secondary real estate market, the dismantling of old structures, such as:
- doorways;
- window openings;
- walls;
- floors;
- communication systems of water supply and plumbing;
- power supply systems;
- heating.

Rough construction work includes the leveling and elimination of all defects in walls and ceilings, floor pouring, leveling its surface, installation of warm floors in the room, installation of plumbing, laying power supply cables, telephone communications, television and Internet connection cables. At the same stage, the installation of internal communications takes place, such as:
- heating;
- water supply;
- sewerage.

When carrying out rough construction work, it is possible to perform work on combining the loggia and the room in the apartment, glaze and insulate the balcony, and strengthen the window blocks. All these works must be performed to bring the premises back to their original form, i.e. remove the "traces of habitation", the remnants of previous repairs, in order to begin the planned work on improving the premises and giving it a new look.

Rough repairs for new buildings

The trend of the modern construction market is that apartments are rented not as before, with finishing, but with a rough repair. That is, all construction waste was removed from the new building, double-glazed windows were installed, the walls were leveled, the ceilings were sewn up and the floors were covered, screeds were made, all communications were brought in and hidden in the boxes, the position of the power supply systems was marked. At the same time, plumbing is often not even installed in apartments, and the water supply and sewerage system inputs are placed so that the tenant can independently plan the location of the bath, shower, etc.

At the same time, you need to understand that it is impossible to hand over the house with a rough repair of the entrance, therefore, staircases, elevator and auxiliary rooms must be completed cleanly.

Rough work often takes up significant large quantity time and effort, rather than finishing, and therefore, when planning repairs, it is necessary to draw up an estimate for the implementation of all these works. This is necessary for the complete and high-quality performance of repair work.
