The problem of selecting the floor during repair is one of the most relevant builders or a simple manual. It is very important to approach this issue reasonably, in order to optimize its costs and, of course, as a result, get a high-quality floor covering.

Classification of floor coverings

Outdoor coverage, depending on the purpose, are divided into such types:

• for kitchen,
• bathroom,
• for residential rooms
• decorative coatings
• Coatings for industrial buildings and rooms,
• Coatings for warehouses.

Coatings for the kitchen and bathroom have good water resistance and durability. In these rooms there are increased humidity and sometimes even water on the floor. Most often use different types of tiled coverage and waterproof ties. Coatings for dwelling rooms wear-resistant, and also perform a decorative function. Laminate, parquet, epoxy floors, cork floors, linoleum, bulk coatings are used in these rooms. Decorative coatings are used in halls, living rooms, restaurants, receptions, etc. The main property of these floors is colorfulness and individuality. In this environment, floors are used, the floors with a 3D effect, multi-level floors. Material for such floors is very diverse. For example: bamboo, pebbles, sea sand, various types of paints. Coatings for industrial and warehouse purposes are special, and individual for each production. Where there are currently conductive elements, they necessarily have an insulation property. Where production conditions are associated with high humidity - high moisture resistance. In manufacturing plants there are coatings with a rubber basis, various ties, reinforced concrete plates and bulk floors. Flooring on manufacturing material are divided into:

• natural. These are coatings from boards of various wooden breeds, as well as plants;
• from wood waste. These are coatings from chopper and wood-fibers, as well as compressed trimming waste;
• polymer. These are various types of plastics, for example, epoxy, polystyrene, polypropylene and others;
• tile. Coatings from various types of tiled plates;
• metal. Coatings from various types of metal, such as sheets of various steel grades.
• portland cement coatings. Coatings based on various cement screeds;
• composite. Coatings that represent a composition of several types of materials. For example, a laminate, which consists of four layers: acrylic resin, decorative paper, wood-fiber plate and moisture-resistant paper.

By way of consolidation, flooring are divided into:

• bulk. Coatings that are applied using solutions of various types of raw materials and when frozen (drying), they are fixed on the surface using material adhesion. An example of such a coating is the bulk floor of the UNISS horizon "Universal";
• assembly. Coatings that are collected from various types of plates. These plates have special latches with which they hold onto the floor;
• glue. Coatings that are glued to the floor with various types of adhesives;
• using nails and bolts;
• combined. Coatings that are fixed to the floor using a combination of several assignment types above. These coatings are the most durable and practical. For example, using the UNIS bulk floor, the horizon, to prepare a smooth and durable base in residential heated rooms with normal humidity, and various types of parquet, laminate, ceramic tiles and linoleum, we achieve maximum strength and adhesive properties of the coating.

By the method of decor, such floor coverings differ:

• without decorating elements. In this case, the decorative or practical properties of the material of the floor covering are manifested. For example, rubber plates or linoleum;
• with the application of paints and varnishes. There are various types of varnishes and paints, to improve the appearance of the coating, as well as wear resistance. For example, opening the parquet varnish or coating paint wooden floors.

Installation instructions flooring

Having read the main classification characteristics of the floors, pay attention to the importance of the selection of high-quality raw materials and materials for flooring. It should be noted that the most optimal solution for laying outdoor coatings in residential, heated rooms with a small level of humidity is the vocabulary floor.

The first base of the floor is the bulk floor, which lines all surface irregularities, and will also increase the strength and wear resistance of the second base. The second base is used different - linoleum, laminate, ceramic tile, cork plates or sheets, as well as epoxy bulk 3-D floors.

Special attention should be paid to the quality of each of the foundations, because saving on raw materials, do not forget. Which time it may affect the quality and manifest itself in the form of defects. For example, using poor-quality material for the bulk sex of the first base, depressions and snaps can appear in time, and use poor-quality coating - appearance defects, such as breaks, scratches, offset and others. Instructions for the installation of flooring on the example of bulk sex Unice Horizon and laying of linoleum on it are shown below.

Floor-based flooring and linoleum

• First of all, it is necessary to get the necessary tools and materials. Equipment: professional mixer or drill with stirring, floors for floors, soil for floor base, construction roller, mixing container, edge ribbon for bulk floors. Materials will need the bulk gender horizon and purified water.
• We pour water into the container for mixing the solution. It should be noted that it is better to use deep tanks for the convenience of mixing the solution.
• Open the packaging of the bulk gender The "Universal" horizon. For convenience, you can use various building knives.
• Pour the contents of packaging into water. Purchase best gradually. Optimally use ratios of 3 liter of water per 1 kg of a mixture. To obtain more durable bulk floors, the mixture concentration should be increased. Fluent consumption The horizon varies as depending on its concentration.

• With the help of a construction mixer or drill with a special nozzle, we thoroughly mix the contents within 3-5 minutes. It is necessary to mix until the inclusion is turned on in the mixture in the form of lumps.
• The solution is defended 3 minutes. After that, it is necessary to re-mix the solution. The prepared portion of the solution should be used during the period specified on the package.
• In the room around the perimeter we stick to the vertical surfaces the edge ribbon where the bulk sex will touch the wall. There will be several centimeters such a tape.
• To enhance the filling adhesion with the base, it is necessary to treat the base of the floor with a ground using a construction roller.
• After the soil treatment, we pour the fine solution of the bulk. During pouring, the solution has high mobility.
• We use the filling floor alignment to prevent the appearance of non-desired gender defects, such as bubbles or overflow.
• The inflicted filling floor solidifies three hours. We wait. After that, you can safely walk on it.
• Crow (cut) Linoleum required size with a building knife.
• We put the linoleum on a completely smooth frozen bulk floor. Let him be disclosed for several hours.
• Fix linoleum with plinths (slopes). We use special nails for plinths.

Self-leveling horizon, reviews about which they talk about its quality is the best solution for the arrangement of a two-room floor.

Instructions for the installation of bulk sex Unice Horizon using ceramic tiles

• We perform 1-12 points of the previous instruction, but instead of a linoleum we purchase the required amount of ceramic tiles and means for gluing it. Special intercine plastic partitions are also needed in the form of crosses.
• After solidification of the filling floor. We prepare a solution for gluing tiles according to the instructions indicated on the package of the mixture.
• Equally weaving the thin layer of the prepared solution on the opposite direction of the ceramic tile so that it is enough to touch with the surface of the bulk sex, but not too much so that it is not burned in different directions.
• Attach the tile with a solution to the filling floor. Press it a little on it.
• On the edges of the tile, we place special crushing partitions. This is done so that all the tiles are exactly about their row. Each cross must be in the center between the four glad of the arranged ceramic tiles.

• We check the laying of the tile on the construction level.
• Each subsequent ceramic tile is tested relative to previous ones on the flattering styling also with the help of a construction level.
• If necessary, cut the tile using the "Bulgarian" or other fixture. We repeat the tile in empty places.
• Fill empties between ceramic tiles with special decorative aggregate. It must be the same color with a tile.
• We wipe the coating with a damp cloth or mop. Ceramic floor-based flooring is ready.

The bulk floor of the UNIS skyline, the reviews of which are talking about its high technological characteristics, is applied not only for standard installation methods of flooring, but also for more original solutions.

Instructions for mounting a bulk sex with styling on it cork sheets

• Perform 1-12 points from the initial instruction. Instead of linoleum, it is necessary to purchase cork sheets for floor coverings and specialized glue.
• After drying the bulk coating, prepare the adhesive mixture for cork sheets. It should be prepared by observing the instructions specified on the glue packaging.
• Apply uniform glue on one of the surfaces of cork slabs (sheets) and on that part of the bulk coating, where this sheet will be located.

• Attach the cork sheet to the place of gluing.
• Smoothly uniformly, with the help of a construction roller or a soft cloth, smooth the surface of the cork sheet so that it becomes even at the construction level.
• Subsequent sheets from the traffic jam are needed on the same system in dense to each other. It is important not to leave the gaps and emptiness between the sheets, as well as to follow, so that the entire surface of the cork sheets was sick.
• Upon completion of the sizing, the coating on the perimeter of the room should be consolidated with plinths (slopes).
• The cork floor based on the bulk coating is completed.

Consider the "second side of the medal" - costs. It should be noted that the bulk gender horizon, the price of which is competitive, compared to other analogs, will serve much longer. The bulk gender is universal, the reviews earned exceptionally positive. This is connected not only with the price, but also with the quality of the material. Therefore, the choice of this floor covering for surface leveling will be fully justified.
