How to arrange arched opening. Methods of finishing interroom arch do it yourself. Figure plasterboard arches

The best arched arches in the doorway are obtained from drywall, but after that the arch of the arch in the apartment is extremely necessary, to create clear corner lines by applying putty.

Materials that are performed by decoration arches in the apartment

The formation of arched openings in the house or apartment is related, first of all, with the correct geometry, the arch must have a clear contour of the semicircular or half-cell, if, of course, something wavy, asymmetrical, is not intended. In order for the angles to be the right form and laid 90 degrees, special rigid profiles are commonly used as a kind of frame that limits the edge of the design of plasterboard sheets.

Ideal lines are created directly in the process of putty work, when thin metal or plastic perforated corners are placed on the solution. Moreover, for the arches, special forms of profiles are made, with one whole shelf and the second in the form of a row of teeth or petals. Plasterboard sheets are made quite smooth, in fact, it is a dry plaster, which is covered with walls and ceiling, and other works are performed, in particular - the interroom finish in the apartment with their own hands.

However, the seams between the sheets and the hats of poorly drowning self-recesses still create small irregularities whose correction does not require any particular materials, except for a putty and perforated corner. Profiles are with large and small holes over the entire surface that may have a square, round or triangular shape, or be sparkling.

Sometimes the corners are supplied with a grid glued on the outside, providing a stronger fixation after the spit.

Finishing interroom arch do it yourself gradually

Beautiful, moving above the head of the doorway, it is quite forces to everyone, since there is a lot of instructions ,. However, collect the frame and to strip it - it is still half an end, you need to achieve the perfect merger of the wall surface and made in the opening of the design, as well as provide clear lines of corners. It is for this that a putty is used in combination with special profiles. Let's look at the entire sequence of work.

Interior Arch decoration - step-by-step scheme

Step 1: Profile Setting

First of all, after the primer, we take a perforated profile in a fairly bought in sufficient quantity, the total length of it must correspond to at least the twice-length arc arc. Sometimes, in cases where the opening is made in a plasterboard partition, it is necessary to make lining and side sides. Having determined the pre-port area requiring the strengthening of the edges, we put a perforated corner on it and fix it along the entire length at an equal interval of screws.

We repeat this operation on the other side of the arch.

Step 2: Fixing profile with solution

We take a small portion of putty from a container with a finished composition, or prepare a limited amount of a dry mixture. With the help of a spatula, we applied thick strokes between self-pressing and smoothing them, thoroughly pressing the solution into the holes of the perforation, so as to ensure sufficient adhesion with the base. At the same time, the mixture must lie on top of the corner, grabbing it to the surface of the plasterboard.

Step 3: Removing fasteners

We are waiting for a complete drying applied to the corner of putty, it will not take much time, in view of the fact that the portions were small. As soon as the traces of moisture will not be noticeable on the surface of the frozen solution, you can carefully unscrew the screws - the profile will be securely held at the expense of the solidified mixture. Next, with the help of a spatula, carefully, without applying a lot of effort, we remove the surplus of the solution, frozen drops, too obvious protrusions. You can carefully go through the smears of spacure grater with sandpaper grinding to smooth the surface. At the same time, try not to remove too much frozen mixture so that the profile fixation does not weaken.

Step 4: Arch Decoration

When all the preparatory work was performed, and only the putty arches from the plasterboard remained, you need a wide spatula, the length of the working surface of which should exceed the thickness of the arch portal.

In small portions, we capture the solution, ready or mixed personally. It is best to put the finishing plaster, a smooth surface of the drywall that allows.

If the design is built into the opening between two plastered walls, you will need to smooth the connection line. In this case, it is first recommended to use the starting putty, and only then, after drying the two layers, apply the finish mixture.

How to put a plasterboard arch

Today, many homeowners who have identified the repair and refined doorways with the help of dry plaster, the question arises about how to put the army from the plasterboard, and why do it. It would seem, just need to be hidden under economy strokes, as well as to smear the gap between sheets. However, it is fundamentally incorrect because, if the final decorating finish will be applied directly to the plasterboard, with the next repair it will be encouraged. To avoid unnecessary expenses, it is better to spend time and use putty.

So, we have an arch. It can be part of the partition, or the design inside the opening, from how it is done depends on the scope of work. In the first case, we will finish the portal Arches along with the walls of the walls, in the second - we need to perform an inconspicuous fusion of the plasterboard design and a conventional brick wall, which may have already disappeared under the layers of plaster. The front of the work determines which materials we need. For the first version there is a sufficient finish putty, and the starting is necessary for the second. However, in both cases a universal mixture is quite suitable.

In the event that the arch is in our usual opening, and you need to combine it with a wall, we use either a wide spatula, or a short rule, since we will apply a solution with abundant portions. At the same time, a layer of putty should not exceed 0.5 centimeters, so try to do the arched structure with the wall. If necessary, it is allowed to apply up to 3-4 layers, including the finishing, after completing each of which you need to expect at least 12 hours. At the beginning of the work, carefully follow that the spatula will not cling to the screws, if it happens, it means that they are not well screwed well.

Sheets stick with sickle, all defects on the surface of the plasterboard are embarrassed at the very beginning, before laying the first layer. We begin the finishing with a putty above, gradually going down down, the inner, curved part of the arched portal process with swallowed longitudinal movements. Special attention should be paid to the seams, literally pressing the mixture in them, it is possible to apply a slightly more putty on top than the plane, because when drying, the solution sends, and the exhaust may form. Better let the convex seam remain, it can always be treated with sandpaper. Upon completion of the work, the arches can be completed in the house with decorative plaster.

Arched openings are used as an element of zoning the combined adjacent rooms or instead of interior doors, when it is necessary to achieve a visual increase in space. Thanks to the possibilities of plasterboard, this architectural element has lost its elitism, becoming affordable and popular. It is important to choose correctly than to separate the army from the drywall so that such an openness is organically fit into the interior.

What needs to be considered by choosing design

There are different forms of arched openings. Only by sight of these options of at least a dozen. And the specific form is chosen at the design of the design project, so that its geometry consistent with the requirements of the ergonomics of the opening, fit into the geometry of the room and answered the interior style.

According to the functional purpose, the arches differ as passive and active:

  • Passive arches have a form from the standard architectural series: classics, modern, romance, trapezium, oriental, etc. Their decorative properties are determined to a greater degree of finishing materials
  • Active arches have a complex shape that is distinguished by non-standard geometry of opening and lines. They can have in their composition shelves and niches for accessories, decorative illumination. The opening itself can be decorated with wrought iron or decorative elements of finishing from valuable wood. Such arches serve as one of the central elements of the decor of the room

But regardless of the type and appointment of the Arch, the process of its design is usually reduced to finishing the opening and adjacent sections of the wall by the most popular finishing materials.

Preliminary stage

Whatever material was selected as an finishing finish, the surface of the arch should be prepared for this:

  • All angular joints of GCL - processed by a perforated corner
  • Seams of individual elements of the skin and design lines with adjacent walls - placed sickle grid
  • Surface - primed, past, stolevan and polished

As a result of preparatory work, the surface of the entire arch and adjacent walls should be smooth and smooth.

Popular finishing options

Among the most common finishing materials, the following types are distinguished:

  • Decorative plaster
  • Liquid wallpaper
  • Wallpaper, including Painting
  • Bung
  • A rock
  • Tile
  • Mosaic

Decorative plaster

Typically, for these purposes, construction mixtures are used, ready for use or in "dry" form, which, before applying, it is necessary to simply stir with the specified amount of water, and after - follow the specified in the sequence of work. Some of the most popular species can be made by hand, adding a stone crumb or explorer to normal plaster. These include "lamb" and "koroed".

There are two main ways to create relief:

  • Ready or homemade mixes, which contain "volumetric" fillers creating the necessary decorative effect (crumb, explore, large quartz sand, flocks)
  • Formation of relief using textured rollers and stamps

Each method (and even each type of mixture) has its own characteristics of the final stage to create a volumetric relief. But the main part of the work passes according to the standard scheme - on the prepared base of the Kelma (workshop) is applied to the plaster and smash it with half arser to a homogeneous layer thickness. The magnitude of the layer largely determines the type of plaster.

If it is a "coroede", the initial layer for internal works is about 5 mm, which is then aligned until the grain size of the filler. After the initial pouring of the composition, the formation of the relief of the rubber, rolling the grains in a certain direction (vertical, horizontal, circular, chaotic movements).

Homogeneous by weight, plastering formulations are applied with a thinner layer with a thickness of 1.5 mm. And when the composition grab slightly, the surface is rolled with a relief roller or print a decorative stamp pattern.

At the end of drying decorative plaster it is painted. And in this case there are different techniques:

  • Coloring in one color with brush, spray collar or roller with long pile
  • Coloring in two colors, when the colors are applied on top of the dried base layer, the second layer of a short pile roller is applied
  • Drawing a drawing manually or rolling rolling through stencil

The main disadvantage is the vulnerability of coating to mechanical damage, especially in the region of the opening edge.

Liquid wallpaper

This is the case when the name of the material does not correspond to its properties. It is more correct to call it, given the method of applying, silk or cotton plaster - depending on the type of fiber filler.

As well as the usual decorative plaster, the liquid wallpaper is sold either in the finished form, or in the form of dry mixes that need to be diluted with water before use.

Liquid wallpapers are distinguished by a large variety of colors and shades. According to this indicator, they almost do not differ from decorative paint - one of the world's leading manufacturers of Silk Plaster has more than one hundred shades. If we consider that additional decorative fillers in the form of flocks, sequined or pearl chips can be added to the "standard" composition, in reality, the decorative possibilities of this type of coating are even greater.

In liquid wallpapers there are no shortcomings of conventional plaster - in addition to the decorative functions of the fiber fiber reinforce the layer across the depth. Here is what can be separated by the edge of the plasterboard arch so that they are not deformed during operation. And to increase the strength of the surface of the arches and its edges from above, we recommend applying a layer of varnish.

Wallpaper

The most accessible finish type is wallpaper.

Plee the arch with any traditional wallpaper is easy:

  1. At the edges of the arch, in the vertical part of the opening, two sheets are glued from the ceiling to the floor. And they do it so that each sheet advocates the edge of 2-3 cm;
  2. These edges are cut from the side of the opening in the part, where the vertical part of the arch moves to its dome (semicircle, oval, trapezium);
  3. Bend each side and upper part and glued in the face of the arches;
  4. The following sheets of wallpapers on the left and left of the first two bands are pasted over the arch dome, cutting them to the length so that 2-3 cm came out in the opening;
  5. Then these editions of the wallpaper are cut by scissors along the same principle as the edges of the arched profile, and then glued them;
  6. Then cut from the roll of the strip (or two bands) from the end of the face of the arches and the length (or half length) of all its opening, trying to match the wallpaper on the wall and in the vertical part of the arch;
  7. They glue this strip and smooth, removing bubbles and remnants of glue.

The disadvantage of this type of trimming of plasterboard arches is low resistance to mechanical damage to paper, vinyl and flieslinic wallpapers, which during operation of the opening are inevitable. But this disadvantage is devoid of glass windows under painting.

Bung

Another simple solution to the question "What to attach the army from plasterboard" -
Using a roll stopper (cork wallpaper) or thin tiles for wall decoration.

A thin plug is easily cut by knife or scissors, so it's easy to separate the arch:

  1. First cut out from the tube the workpiece to separate the inner part of the arch. The width of the strip (or tiles) must be with a slight margin;
  2. Then a special contact glue (by type of liquid nails) is then applied to the plug and end of the opening;
  3. Make a small excerpt, apply the workpiece to the surface and tightly pressed it;
  4. The edges of the workpiece must fit exactly in the width of the opening, so if necessary, they are cut by a knife;
  5. Then the adjoining part of the wall is separated by a cork so that the edge of the sheet is exactly the geometry of the sheet - the size and form of the external part of the finish depends on the arch design.

To increase the strength of the plug surface to mechanical loads, it is covered with varnish.
The only drawback of this type of decoration arch is the specificity of the material that does not fit into every interior style.

Stone finish or tile

The nature of this finish option differs only in the complexity of trimming of various types of tiles:

  • The hardness of the tile from natural stone depends on the rock of the stone, and the hardest is granite
    Tile of artificial stone cut lighter - it is thinner, and at the heart of the composition lies portland cement reinforced by microfiber
  • Ceramic or glass tile cut in glass cutter or special tile
  • Porcelain stonework and clinker, like natural stone, cut into the size of the grinder

Separate the opening begin to bottom. Fasten the tile on special adhesive solutions, and the most complex is the design of the opening angles.

If the tile is homogeneous over the color for its entire depth, then you can use the finish option as a plug - put the outer layer of the brass on the end of the arches finish.

Thick clinker tiles or a natural stone coating can be laid with a shift of the seam of each row (odd - internal, even - external relative to the opening).

The soft end of a ceramic tile of spill at an angle of 45 ° and thus carry the dock.

Mosaic

To decorate the arch, you can use a piece mosaic, but this technology requires a lot of time.

It is easier to work with a mosaic tile. This method of finishing will be simpler if the size of the end part of the arch is multiple the size of a single mosaic element. In this case, the workpiece for the inside of the finish of the opening is cut from the tile mosaic with construction scissors.

The wall decoration in the vertical part of the arch and its docking with a mosaic inside the opening also do not constitute labor.

The most difficult part is to chop the elements of the wall decoration in the area of \u200b\u200bthe arch of the arch. The most "pure" and the exact surface of the radius cut is giving hydroabrasive cutting. But such equipment is considered professional, and the service must be ordered from a profile company.

Alternatively, you can consider cutting with a barart with a diamond abrasive circle. But in this case, the purity of the cutting surface will have to be toned manually.

Plaster and all types of wallpapers are the simplest on the finishing method and affordable materials. Their strength and durability have intravidal differences, but generally low. The advantages of the arches, decorated with mosaic and tiles - resistance to high humidity, mechanical loads and a long service life. But these are the most complex and time-consuming types of finishing works.

From what material was not erected by the arch, it will be a real decoration only after. If you ordered a common project, then professionals will offer and how to separate the arch in the apartment so that it harmonized with the design concept of the entire space. But you can choose the decor you like yourself, as well as bind it this architectural element.

Arches are decorated not only the door, they effectively denote a niche in the wall, make an exclusive window. From here and different requirements for finishing: interior archings are experiencing a large load - it means that their decor should be not only beautiful, but also durable.

Materials for finishing

The market offers numerous materials for the design of through opening:

  • classic - wallpaper;
  • decorative rock;
  • facing brick;
  • tile or ceramic;
  • decorative plaster;
  • mirrors;
  • textile;
  • mosaic;
  • cork.

Corners for arch

Correctly designate vulnerable places - arched corners. We clarify that only tough cladding does not need such protection. In another registration, it is the corners who will prevent mechanical damage to the opening and retain its aesthetic appearance.

Plastic arched corners are produced different widths, but a convenient size is 10 × 20 mm. At the same time, its wide side with liquid nails glit inside the arches, narrow to the facade.

Tip! It is necessary to press the corner to the base for a long time, so the clock at 12 will fix it with painting scotch.

Facing wallpaper

Sticking on the arch.

  • First, they cover and align the foundation.
  • Then you will prepare the glue: the nozzle on the drill is stirred.
  • Lower glue next to the opening vertically and bend the edge of 3 cm on the arch. Similarly, glue and the second strip next to the first.
  • The following stripes stick too with an allowance.
  • Now cut the corners in these allowances to avoid folds, glit them to the arc, smoothing.

At the last stage, the arch will be saved:

  • the first thing I cut the strip in the width of the arch, but the length will be more for the combination of the pattern;
  • we glue this strip at the top of the arch and then descend down, smoothing down from the top, and then to the edge.

The advantages of this decor include the variety of colors and drawings for any interior and taste, as well as the price of finishing. However, the wallpaper is short-lived: yellowish, lose freshness and novelty. And, unfortunately, they will spoil from moisture.

Trimming plug

Today, it is very popular to decorate the openings of the plug - environmentally friendly, warm, natural material.

Only a rolled view is optimal for such design. We also need acrylic or contact glue. Work easily and with.

How can I split the arch in the apartment plug? In fact, this is the usual wall sticker. To increase the strength, then the plug will cover varnish.

Tip! For the arch in the kitchen, we buy cork rolls covered with wax - he pushes moisture.

Applying decorative plaster

Features of finishing

  • Her advantages: Easy and simple application, durability.
  • Disadvantages of decorative plaster: complexity of restoration, relief is difficult to wash or clean.

For decorative plaster, we will need relief rollers or stamps.

Note that the use of finished mixtures of slow drying will facilitate work: we will have time to make a relief on raw plaster.

Order of work

  • Distribute the mixture over the surface - The instruction will indicate the layer thickness (but more than 1.5 cm).
  • Now relief robes or stamps create relief. By the way, the rollers save us material and time, unlike stamps.
  • Then dried face terrain.

After 20 hours, stain on a special scheme:

  • to emphasize the relief, we first apply a roller with a longer pile of dark paint;
  • the second layer: We will make a bright paint with a pile of shorter or rubber - now only the tops of the relief are stained.

Stone finish

Beautiful design Arch by stone or tile can be symmetric in Eco or country style or asymmetric deconstructivism style or modern.

Laying tiles

  • As usual, first attached to the surface and make notches.
  • The solution will prepare from cement, lime, sand and glue, or (if the instruction allows you to fix the tile with liquid nails.
  • The bracket sticker will save us from the sealing of external angles - in the first row we glue the right, and in the second - with a shift inside.
  • And so in every odd row we combine the edge of the tile with the border of the opening, but in each even attaching a mustache.

Stone arc laying

  • We put on a carefully prepared surface.
  • First try tiles and mark the cut line with the offline.
  • According to the drawn line, several times will do the building knife and break off the unnecessary part of the pliers, and then sloling the file.
  • Close the seams in a day.

Facing plastic

At the moment, the arches in the room are constructed in almost every design. They can be located both in the doorways and the design of the wall surface. Despite the way where the arch is located, decorative arches decoration is performed.

From which arched structures can be constructed

At the moment, the arches manufacturing system is quite varied.

Arch can be:

  • From drywall.
  • Brick.
  • Concrete and other similar material.

Note. The arch can not only be semicircular, but also have different non-standard forms.

Work on the construction of the arch from any material is easily done with their own hands. Only initially need to prepare.

Preparatory work:

  • Immediately compiled a design design.
  • Then, on its foundation, the required amount of material is calculated.
  • After that, the decorative decoration arches in the apartment or in the house is chosen.

It is necessary to consider the stylistic direction of the design of the entire premises, as the arch is an integral part.

The functions of the arched construction

The main function of the arch in the room is its decoration.

In addition to the decorative function:

  • The arches help divide the space on various functional zones.
  • You can make a decorative backlight arch.
  • For this, low-size lighting devices are used, which are mounted in the design.

Note. Initially, the Arch Corps should be carried out electrical wiring.

The simplest and rapid way to build Arches is the use of drywall.

Consider the application with this material Read more:

  • The arca of plasterboard hollow and mounted on a frame of special profiles.
  • The surface of the material itself is smooth and does not require additional leveling work.
  • An arch of brick or concrete is considered no less popular.

Their surface already requires alignment for normal finishing design.

What is decorative decoration arches

Many believe that the decorative decoration of the interior arch is a simple decoration of its surface.

Use for this mainly:

  • Wallpaper.
  • Paint.
  • Stucco.

Note. This opinion is erroneous, since the decoration of the surface of the Arch is a finish, which is carried out by unusual and original materials.

You can do not only finishing the entire surface. Decoration is carried out both the angles of the arch and its separate planes (see what to separate the arch, options for design).

Council.Registration of the arch with the application above listed materials is considered a simple finish. For decorative design it is worth applying other species.

Materials for decorative decoration arches

Since the decorative decoration is characterized by an unusual design and the use of original materials, then the works most often use:

  • Decorative or natural stone.
  • Bamboo wallpaper.
  • Cork materials.
  • Decorative plastic and wooden corners.
  • Wood panels with thread and other surface decoration.

All of them have their own individual exterior design and easy installation on the surface.

Decorative and natural stone for arch

These materials for arched structures are presented in the form of plates.

Consider a Read more:

  • Plates of this type can have different parameters.
  • The thickness of the tiles begins with 0.3 cm and reaches 0.8 cm.

Note. For decoration, the Arch should not use the stone tiles with a greater thickness.

And that stone has similar properties, materials:

  • Practical and moisture-resistant. These properties consist in the fact that the surface of both natural and artificial stone is not able to absorb moisture and dirt.
  • Durable and wear-resistant, as practically do not have a certain period of operation and do not lose their external design throughout the entire period of use.
  • Stones are not afraid of fire and changes in temperature regime.

Stones have two differences:

  • Natural stone has a large mass than a decorative stone.

Council.For this reason, it is best to use it on stone arched structures.

  • The price of natural stone tiles is higher than on decorative material.
  • Mounting method is slightly different in that it is necessary to carry out its strengthening to mount on the surface of drywall of natural tiles. Stone decoration Arch looks very original.

For installation, the arch is needed:

  • Concrete solution or special glue.
  • Construction level and roulette.
  • Spatula and adhesive tank.
  • Wet rag for wiping the surface from glue.
  • Stone tiles for cutting stone tiles.

Note. Installation process is quite simple.

Consider more details

  • The surface is labeled with glue.
  • Similar works are performed on the back of the material.
  • Next tiles are attached on the surface.
  • After drying, the finish is cleared from the spokey glue.

Bamboo wallpaper

Interior archings with decorative trim from bamboo wallpapers look rather original.

Read more about design:

  • Wallpapers are rather dense and solid.
  • They are produced in rolls.
  • All bamboo elements are fastened in them with durable fishing racks.
  • There are different shades of this material.
  • Bamboo moisture resistant and durable, possesses similar properties as wood.

To install wallpapers you will need:

  • Special glue.
  • Stationery knife, as the wallpaper is easily cut.
  • Dry rag.
  • Roulette and pencil.
  • If necessary, the construction level.

Cork materials for arched structures

There is nothing original than the decoration of the decorative interroom plug.

Product characteristics:

  • Cork can be in the form of wallpaper or tiles.
  • The plug itself is soft and attached to the surface will not be much labor.
  • She is moisture-resistant and quite practical.
  • It does not affect the various temperature modes.
  • The plug surface is not able to absorb liquid contamination.

Council.The arch is not fully separated, but only it is part of it.

To mount the plugs and products from it there is a specific instruction and is due to this:

  • The elasticity of the material.
  • The plug in any form is easily broken.

It will take:

  • Special glue.
  • Dry rag.

Note. Construction level can not be used, since the plug does not have a certain pattern on the surface.

  • When the surface of the arch should not stretch them with cork materials.
  • They absorb moisture, and there will be no smooth decoration plane on the surface.
  • It is best not to keep glue on a plug for a long time.
  • The material will simply begin to deform.

Whatever type of decorative finishes was present on the surface of the arch, the most important thing is to choose the key to choose the material for this and carry out its quality installation. Watch the video as you originally arrange the arch.

Arch is a very efficient way to revive the interior of the apartment. This building makes freshness and novelty to the appearance of the house, makes it beautiful and original. Arches have the most diverse shape and size.

Scheme of species arches.

The completed type of construction takes only after completion.

The decorative arches can make the opening of the door arch with the real decoration of the house.

To finish the arch with your own hands every owner.

The finishing decoration of arched structures produce in different ways. Wild stone, decorative plaster, wallpapers, overhead elements made of polystyrene use for facing of the door arches. You can simply paint it into the desired color. To do this, an arched structure is recommended to salary fiberglass, which is well glued with PVA glue. Such a preliminary decoration of the Arch is suitable for further painting, applying fine plaster, wicked with wallpaper.

Decoration Materials

Decorative elements for decoration arches can be bought in stores. Industry produces all sorts of arched elements from wood and MDF, baguettes from polyurethane and components from natural and artificial stone in the form of locks, archwater expansion.

Arch with your own hands can be separated by the following materials:

  • decorative stone (brick);
  • ceramic (tile) tiles;
  • mirrors;
  • mosaic;

Finishing arched opening

Classic arch scheme.

One of the easiest ways to finish the arch is to leave it with wallpaper, which will be used for pasting walls. Work begins with the preparation of glue. It must be somewhat thick than for pasting walls. The wallpaper strip passes on the wall next to the arch. The next piece of wallpapers are superimposed so as to close the part of the arch. After gluing the strip, the protruding part of the wallpaper is cut, leaving the allowance of about 25 mm. It makes cuts after 20 mm, which bend and glued to the slope.

For the arch of the arch of the arch cut the wallpaper strip equal to the width of the depth of the arch. The length of the strip must be greater than the desired size in order to match the wallpaper patterns. The glued wallpaper is carefully smoothed so that the air bubbles are not formed.

Separate the arch can be plug. This method is environmentally friendly and natural. The material is sold by panels and rolls. For decoration, the arch is better to purchase a roll stopper. You can replace it with cork walls. They can have a self-adhesive foundation. If there is no basis, they use acrylic glue.

Device diagram Arch.

Before finishing, the finished arched construction must be carefully sharpened, align and dry. The process of finishing the construction of the plug is similar to the sticker of ordinary wallpaper. The glue is applied on the wall and on the plug. The material is glued without any gaps. It is necessary to ensure that there are no air bubbles.

In indoors with high humidity, a plug is used covered with a layer of wax. He pushes moisture from himself. You can additionally cover the plug.

It looks good for the arch, trimmed by a stone. Especially when it is lined with arched opening and a small part of the wall next to him. Such cladding is asymmetric and symmetric. For cladding, the stone is better to choose narrow tiles. Their face is selected in color and texture according to the desire of the owners. You can choose imitation of sandstone, brick or marble. If the arch is made of drywall, then facing materials should be sufficiently light. In order for the tile well with the surface, the arch should be attached first, then primed and apply notches.

Arch diagram assembled.

To separate the arch with a tile of artificial or natural stone, a cement solution is prepared. Sand, lime and glue are added to it. It is possible to replace the solution with liquid nails. Begin to rest on the bottom of the bottom, from the floor. Arch roundings require a special approach. The dry tile is applied to the impeach, and a cut-off line is marked with a pencil.
