Now management companies began to actively make repairs in our homes. Repair of facades, entrances, communications. What paints usually use management companies to repair the entrances of residential buildings? Usually walls in the entrances are painted with oil paints or enamels. But not everyone knows that these building materials are destructive for the life and health of people, as they contain high-tech substances. For more than two weeks after painting, residents of these entrances breathe with these toxic evaporations. Even after more than a two-month period, after painting in the entrance, there remains an unpleasant smell. All the fault of the nature of oil paint (enamel). These paints are made on toxic solvents based on alkyd resins. After drying, the air and a steamproof film is formed, which prevents the normal air exchange between the wall material and the air in the entrance. Therefore, in such a room, the walls cease to "breathe", there is no moisture regulation. In such an entrance, dampness and disgusting shaft smell remain forever.
The technology of painting by oil paints of the walls of the premises is outdated for 50-60 years.
In developed countries, the production of solvent-based alkyd paints and large companies are forced to move the production of these building materials to developing countries where they do not particularly pay attention to the environment.
Another point - management companies make repairs on this outdated technology to our money. And the amounts we pay for home service are huge!
At the same time, there is now an excellent alternative to these obsolete materials - acrylic water-based paint. This type of paints has indisputable advantages. High environmental friendliness, since the solvent is water, fire safety for the same reason. Very high degree of diffusion of water vapor - the wall "breathe", there is a moisture regulation. Therefore, in the premises painted with acrylic paint breathing easily and there are no unpleasant odors.
There is also a sufficiently large number of acrylic paints, which can be cleaned using abrasive and other detergents, including the use of the brush.
Acrylic paint is easy to give almost any color and shade thanks to machine tinting technology. In this case, high resistance to the fading of the coating obtained is obtained. That is, the inhabitants of the entrance can choose not only the "blue or green" color, but almost anyone.
Summary can be said that it is necessary to more actively influence the management companies and their outdated approach. Our entrances are also part of our dwelling. And they should also breathe well, be light and cozy. Our choice is to paint the entrances with acrylic paints.
Why is the entrances often paint in nasty colors?.
Do you like you?
Today there are a variety of paints, and before you could find paints of four colors. Green, brown, white, gray. These paints were cheap and were produced in huge quantities. This is understandable, green and white painted military equipment in summer and winter, brown painted decks, gray boards of warships and ships. Blue paint fell. And nothing supernatural. And the housing needed, built a lot, it was not to the paint. Of course, you can also paint two colors to paint the entrances beautifully and elegantly, but they believed that artists would not live in apartments, but the usual people. By the way, Peter the Great built Petersburg in the image of European cities, at home should have been painted in all colors of the rainbow, bright and beautiful, but now we can see not dirty gray houses, but multicolored and beautiful.
And this is an example of an entrance, for the color of which only two colors are used, but it looks much more pleasant to multicolor entrances.
Pray your entrance yourself.
Most of the entrances of apartment buildings are a pitiful spectacle: the walls crumbling behind the collapse of the panel, spotted flooded floors, irradiated or illuminated by the uncomfortable inscriptions. Meanwhile, ZEK, now that year traditionally refers to the lack of funds.
Maybe it makes sense to solve this problem with your own hands? Especially when there is a mutual understanding of the issue by all residents of the entrance and the opportunity to work almost everyone - from Mala to Velik. On the overhaul of enthusiasm, a clear case is not enough, but for painting - quite.
Preparing materials
The casting of walls in an acceptable appearance is possible in two ways - their whitewash or painting. Everything will be restarted in the financial costs that must be agreed by all residents. Pokes - the option is significantly more budget, but also less practical: few people want to update the surface of the blurred walls annually and periodically clean their clothes from white traces of whitewash.
Therefore, the initiative group should work among the participants, insisting on painting. Especially since it is also quite possible to save in this case.
You need to start with the choice of suitable paint. Based on the conditions in which wall cover will be operated, it must meet the following consumer characteristics:
- Different with high plasticity, because in conditions of sharp temperature fluctuations (and they will still be, even if the entrance is heated) the finished coating will have to lag behind the wall for next year.
- Be comfortable to apply a high-performance painting tool - roller. Other options should not be considered, because otherwise it will be very uncomfortable to work in the entrance.
- Do not have a sharp smell that will penetrate the apartment.
- Quickly dry, otherwise use the entrance is extremely uncomfortable, especially random visitors and guests.
- Well go to any foundation (chalk, lime, concrete, brick).
The most fully corresponds to such a set of requirements of water-free paints. They are convenient for use, well connected with any basis, available at a price.
The lack of such coloring compositions is a small color choice - easily overcomes. To do this, you need to purchase special pungent additives of the desired color. These additives are entered into the paint immediately before it uses, the intensity of the koller will be determined by the amount of additive. So you can paint the entrance even in a certain color scheme.
Besides walls, often painting requires the floor. Here you will need more paint in the mechanical sense. It is most profitable to apply any composition designed for roof staining: their operating conditions are not easier than the floor in the entrance.
What kind of paint to choose for the floor? There are also options that depend on the type of floors in the entrance. Most often floors in the entrance - concrete, much less often - wooden. In the concrete surface of the floor, acrylic paint will be best. In contrast to other options (polyurethane paint, epoxy compositions), it is one-component, and therefore it is easily prepared for work.
It is also not bad to use rubber paint on a latex basis. Although it is more expensive, it is recommended mainly for the roofs, but perfectly stacked on other surfaces: wood, cement or concrete. Rubber paint on the walls and staircase marches of the entrance will be highly resistant to moisture, relatively quickly dries, well hits with the source surface. The only limitation is latex paints not recommended to be used at ambient temperatures less than 15 ° C.
Wooden floors can be painted by any paints, except for the water-emulsion. By the way, most painting makers are also suitable for painting wooden windows.
The color and texture of the painted walls and the floor are negotiated with all residents, after which the paint is purchased and, if necessary, the supplements to it.
Tools for work
Since these elements of the entrance do not have a complex configuration, it is quite possible to use the painting roller, placed on a long handle. In this case, you will not need a stepladder. However, for the color of individual protruding fragments (for example, heating pipes, covers and door switchboards) without brushes, it is still not to do.
In addition, they will not be superfluous:
- building level;
- putty knife;
- cord for selecting a partition line (if not all the wall is painted, but the panel is performed);
- colored shallow;
- broom;
- a hammer;
- construction Scotch (useful when staining window frames).
Naturally, you should not forget about things that ensure normal conditions for working - mittens, respirator, marlevant. They will be especially necessary when cleaning surface cleaning from dust.
Sequence of performance
Even with a satisfactory condition of the former wall covering, it is necessary to prepare high qualityly to painting. If the water-emulsion paint is selected, then before starting work:
- all surfaces thoroughly clean from pollution;
- eliminate outflows of paint;
- sharpen revealed recesses.
Old paint will have to be removed by spatula.
Worse, if the walls of the entrance were sometimes plastered. Then you need to evaluate the quality of plaster: if it is lagging behind either somewhere already absent, then such problem areas should be removed with a hammer, and only then we can already put.
Separately, it should be sorted out with a web on the ceilings and staircase marches. Here a broom is useful on a long handle, which should be walking in all the hard-to-reach plots - it is there who is most of all.
After this wall, the entrance is desirable to disinfect. Otherwise, dark spots from fungus may appear very soon on the painted surface, easily formed with sharp fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Such processing can be made using either an aqueous solution of copper sulfate (substance of poisonous!), Or a common means for cleaning shells and toilet bowls ("Bref", "Domasetos", etc.). The floors in the entrance are quite well rinsed, after which they also treat disinfecting compositions.
For shtatleving walls and gender in the entrance, the most suitable gypsum putty. It is universal, inexpensive at cost, suitable for any subsequent coating, can easily handle even enough deep irregularities.
The spacure of the walls is rational only when they subsequently will be completely painted. If painting only panels is planned, the rest of the sections will have to plaster, and this has already significantly complicates repair work and increase their cost. Therefore, oddly enough, the entrance is much more profitable to paint completely, rather than draw the panels on the walls.
When assigning the priority of work, it is worth recalling that the greatest inconvenience of moving creates a painted floor. Therefore, it is worth painting in the evening and only after the painted walls are completely dried.
Work is usually carried out by painting roller. This will provide the desired performance and will allow the final coating to be more uniform. Lastly, already with the help of a brush, sections of the floor and walls are painted hard to reach roller. Painting of floors and walls is better to spend in spring or autumn - such a period of time is most comfortable for these works.
9 Errors in choosing a color that should not be allowed when repaired.
Color everything in pink is not the most successful design solution.
Professional interior designers and decorators shared the most important principles of creating a beautiful interior in the house.
Error number 1: White ceiling
This is the largest surface in the house and it has the greatest impact on the entire atmosphere. Traditional white ceilings arose exclusively by poverty: Lime has always been the most affordable dye.
But pure white color contains a gray shade, making a room greatest below. Choose for painting the ceiling cream shades. And instruct the painting of the ceilings to professionals: irregularities on the ceiling are especially noticeable and spoil all the impression of repair.
A good solution will be purchased by a stretch ceiling, it will relieve you from the torment with its alignment.
Error №2: Literal color match
How to choose the color of the walls in the apartment? It is very seductive to choose in the store paint, exactly coinciding with the color of the upholstery of your furniture. Do not do this: the room will become dull and small. The color of the walls should be a bit darker than the upholstery, if it comes to pastel and cream colors. And significantly lighter if you have dark furniture.
Error number 3: all make a bright
You will curse this decision in a week of life in a freshly renovated room. In the eyes will be rich. Never paint all the walls only in bright colors. How to choose paint color for walls? If you want to looked "richly", leave a few color spots in gray or white tones on a bright background.
It can be columns, arches, inserts, doors and door shoals - need calm colors for alternation with a variety.
Error №4: do everything neutral
Another extreme is to blur all colors in a safe range. It will be too boring. What color of the walls to choose? Be sure to make several bright color accents.
Error №5: change color schemes from room to room
High-tech bathroom, hippie bedroom, neutral classic living room and children's cartoon. You just point from life in such a house. It is clear that I want to try everything, but you will live with it. What color of the walls to choose for the kitchen and other rooms? Planning the repair so that you do not have the impression that every individual room has entered this house to visit by chance.
Error number 6: paint all uniform
Again about the extremes. The style should be set aside, but you should change shades in a little more or a little less warm from the room to the room. The whole interior in the same colors creates the effect of the tears is no worse than the psychedelic diversity.
Error №7: Forget about the texture
The texture of finishing is very important. A little more or a little less rough surface, from fine irregularities to the texture "broken egg shell" - significantly change the impression of the interior.
Dark colors usually look more flat, so it is worth choosing texture application.
Error №8: Select a one-dimensional shade
The more simple and shallow color you choose for coloring walls, the more your room will be like a fence around the transformer booth.
Error number 9: Too many details and illustrations
When you look at the wallpaper in a nursery with a thousand Dalmatian, you like them in the store. Now mentally imagine that there will be 100,000 in the room, along all the walls. This really rides into a monotonous ornament.
All the same also applies to wallpaper for adults. A good choice is to buy wallpaper without small drawings that would be valid by themselves, simply with an abstract unobtrusive ornament. And all the drawings give a narrow ribbon border.
Error number 10: Do not make a border
The rule is simple: the higher you let the horizontal line on the wall, the stronger the ceiling will be pressed. And you will feel dwarf. The perfect level is at the level of your groin. Conversely - try to put the line of the color section at the level of the eye and you will feel a drowned one every time, entering the room.
Error №11, last: always adhere to one color gamma
Conservatism, of course, is good, but why do you need to repair, if from year to year the house remains all the same?
Instruction
As a rule, there were no repairs in our entrances for a long time, therefore, the glasses on the ceilings and the walls almost disappeared. Take a broom or mop and remove the remnants of whims from the walls. In uncomfortable places, remove the web with a round brush attached to the scotch pin. After that, the ceiling and walls moisten with water from the collapse and give the room to dry.
The next stage of work is stripping panels from old painting. Take a spatula or any other sharp tool and scrape the old weak paint from the walls. If the plaster is separated from the surface of the wall, then run it with a hammer to the very reason to subsequently strengthen its new layer of plaster.
All the places that you read on the walls are stigled and let the room dry. After that, proceed to the plaster of the places that you beat off. Drain the dry mix and apply to the wall of the wall. If you should be plastering twice, then let the first layer dry and only then apply the following layer. Do not forget before the second layer to moisten the wall with water, otherwise the plaster will not hold on, and fall off.
While the stucco dries, cover the walls. Take the putty, cover the walls at one time and let me dry. Then cover them again. As a rule, the walls are sweeping twice, but if necessary, you can do it for the third time.
When all preparatory work is made in the entrance, proceed to the ceiling whitewash. Close all the floors on the courts with cardboard, and the residents of the entrance are to cover their doors. After that, you can safely begin the ceiling whitewash. Divide the oil putty in the water, it is more "hiding" than whitewashes. To check the quality of the blots, lower the finger into the solution. If it remains a thick bloom of bliss on it, then the solution is suitable for operation, if not, the solution is considered weak and put put sticks to it. Now the solution is pulled out through the gauze into a clean bucket and with the help of a collapse of the entrance twice. Perform a whitewash with the help of an assistant, because alone this work is difficult to do.
After the whirlwinds dry, sandpacked on the walls on the walls, as well as the whitewash, which got on the panel, otherwise the paint will not hold on to these places. Now take off the line on the panels by which the border of painting will be held. Make it like this: Take the lace, cut in the blue and cut to the outlined points on the panels. Tension the lace and dramatically release it. The wall will remain on the wall from the blue. The height of the panel must be 150, 180 cm is the optimal height so that the residents do not packed with whitewash.
For painting, the entrances use oil paint to make it easier to observe the purity of the entrance. Take the paint and drain it into one container. Paints will need a lot, because in addition to painting the panels will have to paint and fragments of a staircase march. It is desirable that everything is painted in one color, otherwise the entrance will look unsightly.
Take the paint and take the bucket. Dry the flirts into the paint and remove the exact feature of a smooth strip of a 5 cm wide, do the same to the floor panel. Do so all over the perimeter in the entrance, or let your partner do it. At this time, take the roller, plunge it into the paint and run around the cuvette. Now take it to the wall at the floor and enter the roller up the panel, cutting the paint along the wall, then across. Try to water the roller in the paint more often, score the panel without spaces. After the first painting of the panels, give the surface to dry, then paint the walls of the second time. Oil paint easily spreads and covers the surface well, so you can easily cope with this work.
The last stage of repair in the entrance is painting windows and fragments of the railil. Take a white oil paint, stirrel it and paint the windows twice. Also last twice the fragments of the railing.
Before starting repair activities in the first place it is necessary to distinguish capital and cosmetic repairs. To the first following:
- restoration of malfunctioning elevators;
- complete or partial replacement of water, heat, gas, power supply and sewage systems;
- repair of basement and attic rooms;
- wall plasters, etc.
Even if the specified systems are geographically in the entrance, work on their repair is paid from the overhaul fund formed in each region of the Russian Federation from the contributions of housing owners (Article 166 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).
Overhaul of the entrance is made:
- simultaneously with the overhaul of the entire house, which is carried out according to the schedule compiled by the district administration;
- according to the residents of the residents by the management company.
In the first case Additional contributions from owners will not be required - it is enough to pay the receipts to the overhaul.
In the second case The procedure for collecting funds for the restoration of entrances is regulated by FZ No. 185 dated July 21, 2007, "On the Fund for Foundation for Housing HCLCs", according to which the owners are obliged to pay 5% of the value of all works.
Redecorating Outdoor places need much more often than capital and implies:
These works of the Criminal Code must fulfill once every three to five years.At the same time, apartment owners should not make additional funds: all work is paid by a contribution to the content and repair of residential premises.
Where to contact? To bring the entrance to the order of the tenants at the General Meeting, must compile a list of necessary work, attach it to the application and submit documents in the Criminal Code.
Repair of the entrance - the obligation of the management company. The company is obliged to draw up a schedule of work for a year, to find funds (If the contributions of owners is not enough) and repair the entrance.
Works will be performed in strict accordance with the list, therefore he must be carefully thought out.
Who will do?
Having received a statement with the appiled list, the Criminal Code proceeds to the preparation of the annual plan and the development of the estimates in which the costs of acquiring construction materials and labor payments are laid.
Who should make repairs in the entrance? Work can be held:
- forces of employees of the Criminal Code;
- third-party contractor.
By law, both options do not require additional contributions from residents. And, moreover, participation in the works.
In the practice of the Criminal Code often offers residents independently:
- wash the walls after plating the ceiling;
- show the floor with newspapers when painting walls and then remove the paper;
- make construction trash;
- wash the windows and the floor after the completion of the work.
However, according to the Resolution of the Gosstroita of the Russian Federation No. 170 of September 27, 2003 cleaning after repair, as well as maintaining cleanliness throughout the year, is obliged to implement.
There are cases when tenants, considering the cleaning provided by the management company, insufficient, refuse it and remove the entrance themselves. This can refer to the Criminal Code, calling for owners to remove themselves after repair.
But cleaning with residents of public places is not related to guiding purity after painting / whitewash: Repair is considered to be finished after the demonstration of the repaired net entrance and the signing by residents of the act of reception.
Managing companies are repaired only to common areas. Staircases on floors, common corridors and tamburas should be maintained in order by residents.
Repair on their own initiative
Holding residents can be achieved in two ways.: To enter into litigation from the Criminal Code (usually it takes a lot of time) or to organize work independently: do everything at your own expense yourself or hire a construction brigade.
The second option allows you to quickly lead to the order requires the repair space and choose all the necessary materials: from the quality of plaster to color paint.
Also, tenants can determine what part of the work they will do themselves independently and save on the remuneration of hired workers.
Who pays repair in the entrance of an apartment building in this case? Paying all expenses will have to make residents, That is minus such a solution to the problem.
Return a part of the funds spent After completing the repair. For this you need:
- make an act on the state of the parade before the start of work;
- make a estimate;
- purchase materials while maintaining all checks;
- carry out repairs;
- make an act of reception;
- write an application for reimbursement of expenses in the hop, attaching all documents;
- go to court in case of refusal;
- provide evidence of the need for work.
Most likely, compensate expenses will not failEspecially if expensive materials were purchased, the works were directed mostly to improving the safety or improvement of the appearance of the parade (for example, a tile on the floor and walls, the installation of camcorders, etc.).
The administration, housing inspection and the court will take into account the need for each procedure performed, so if you wish to completely return the funds spent, it is necessary to repair only what threatens the life and health of citizens.
No one can oblige the management to pay staining the stairs "for beauty."
So, summarize. Who makes repair at the entrance of apartment buildings and pays for it? According to the law of the Criminal Code must independently control the condition of the parade And make a decision on their repair. In practice, such a responsible attitude from the Criminal Code is extremely rare.
Most likely to bring the entrance by order the tenants themselves will have to show activity: from collecting signatures and draw up documents, before purchasing materials and work.
Residents of the apartments of small and multi-storey houses do not know what dirty, neglected, littered entrances. But this is the common territory of all residents where everyone follows the purity of their own housing. So why not transform your entrance?
Repaint walls, make decorative drawings on them or even attract our children to this session, which will not less interesting to take part in the general case, place pots with flowers, chairs or small sofas, where you can sit with a neighbor, where it will be cozy and beautiful . And most importantly, from this mood of each tenant will be good from the morning.
It is better to repair at the entrance to the warm season when it is possible to open the windows, door entrance doors. Selecting paint for walls in the entrance It is necessary to give preference to wear-resistant, durable, environmentally friendly paints. Acrylic paints are now the greatest popularity. Paint for walls in the entrance Belinka has a high degree of resistance, as well as walls painted by BELINKA acrylic paints due to the components in their composition, are easy to be wet cleaning, do not absorb dirt, dust, prevent the formation, reproduction of fungus, mold, maintain a favorable room microclimate.
An entrance repair can be sequentially divided into several stages:
- cleaning the entrance from garbage, web, dust, dirt;
- removing old paint, rusty leaks, plays on ceilings and parts of walls. As a rule, repairs in many entrances were made in Soviet times and one of the most time-consuming processes is the removal of old paint from the walls. It is necessary to carefully clean them with the mechanical way to be smooth, smooth surface;
- removal of mold, fungal lesions on the walls. In no case can not be overlooked this moment: leave the mold under the paint. The affected parts must be treated with a bactericidal agent against mold and BELINKA fungi. After 12 hours, they are easily removed by a spatula, a metal scraper or brush;
- stucco, putty, primer of walls and ceiling. If the plaster flashed on the walls, then it should be carried out again to align the surface. Next, protected, positive walls, the ceiling must be treated with a universal means to primer BELINKA. On the ceiling and that part of the walls where there are two, it is also necessary to carry out preparatory work, because if you apply acrylic paint for walls in the entrance of Belinka on the seminal surface, then it will squeeze it through time and it will be in vain work. The primer material deeply penetrates into the surface, gives a good grip of paint for walls in the entrance with the surface, and also significantly reduces the consumption of acrylic paint. After applying, the primer must dry at least 12 hours;
- staining of walls, ceiling in the entrance. Now after all complex, preparatory procedures can be processed directly to the painting of the entrance. It should be started from the ceiling, and not from the walls, as the paint can fall when applied to the ceiling onto the walls, then it can be painted on top. Next, the plinth is painted, railing, last windows, doors.
Paint for walls in the entrance of Belinka can be applied by one or two layers, depending on the selected color, as well as the desired result. On the surface of the ceiling, as a rule, white or light tones are selected, which can be applied one-layer, but at the same time thoroughly in progressing the place information from the wall and corners. BELINKA colored paints are recommended to apply a two-layer coating. It is worth considering that the second layer should be applied not earlier than in 5 hours. Color gamans have a huge range, so the main background, as well as for decorating, painting can be selected from the general preferences, desires and flight of fantasy residents at home. The main thing is to go into the entrance of your home, everyone felt homely comfort, a positive atmosphere.
