Wall decoration in the kitchen is a special task in the process of repair, because it is in the zone where something is cooked all the time, fried and distinguishes a huge amount of heat and steam, the standard approach is simply contraindicated. And to wash the kitchen after active cooking also has to often. Naturally, near the working surface, the so -called apron should be provided, this issue can be solved simply – a ceramic “boar” and tile glue standard, but the remaining wall area can be decorated already to your taste and discretion, but taking into account the features of the kitchen design.
Nuances of choosing finishing materials for kitchen walls
Practice shows that the following types of wall finishing materials are the most convenient in the kitchen:
Washing wallpaper or liquid;
ceramic tiles;
stone.
The easiest option is to lay out all the walls with completely ceramic tiles, such a non -marked way does not imply serious costs and difficulties with the further operation of the kitchen. The tile holds tightly, does not respond to high humidity and temperature, and also, which is important for housewives, is perfectly laundered. You can choose any color, texture or pattern.
Wallpaper must be detergent, specially prepared for pasting the kitchen. As an option for a quick change in design, you can choose wallpaper for painting, then the instant transformation of the kitchen space can be achieved in a couple of hours of work with a brush or roller. Or you can use not paper, but liquid wallpaper, a more new technology, which also implies the possibility of repainting, but, unlike paper, has a more original texture.
And the last in the list of the best materials for the kitchen is a natural stone. It also is one of expensive solutions, although it looks, of course, very beautiful, has a huge margin of strength, but requires the preparation of walls before application. I have to buy dry mixtures for putty and level the surface so that tiles can perfectly lie down. In addition, only a professional tile can install a coating.
