Ceiling in the bathroom - modern finishes (23 photos)
Content
The wishes and dreams of the owners of the ceiling decoration in the bathroom may be somewhat limited by its area, so the main thing is to visually increase the space using all the design techniques (color of the ceiling in the bathroom, different levels).
Finishing materials literally pamper designers and property owners with variety, but not everything can be used to repair a particular site. Ceiling materials for the bathroom have their own specifics: water resistance, ease of maintenance, non-toxic.
To create a beautiful ceiling in the bathroom it is important: follow the rules of design and choose the appropriate finishing technology.
Slatted ceiling - lasting beauty
This ceiling coating is assembled on a frame of battens (narrow long panels). There are plastic and metal rails. So, for example, the aluminum ceiling in the bathroom is very easy to install and installation does not require special skills and tools. The rich color palette offers finishes for every taste: chrome, gilding, plastic in different colors with or without drawings.
The rack ceiling in the bathroom has a good reflective effect, which is important when creating the interior of a small room.
The disadvantages of the river ceiling include the possibility of accumulation of dirt in the joints between the panels, but timely cleaning will prevent this trouble. Also, when choosing a rack ceiling, it is advisable to consider that it is not friendly with some interior styles.
Drywall ceiling in the bathroom
Usually, such a structure is assembled on a wooden or metal frame, but it is recommended to use a metal base for the bathroom. The essence of installation is simple - the frame is sutured with drywall, the surface is decorated. For the bath, a moisture-resistant material that is resistant to the appearance of a fungus is necessarily acquired (labeled GKLV - moisture-resistant gypsum plasterboard). It is difficult to overestimate the advantages of the design - creating a spectacular multi-level ceiling, installing built-in lamps, masking communications. Service life - up to 10 years.
The negative sides of the drywall construction are the duration of the ceiling construction (especially when working alone), monetary costs (surface decoration requires putty, primer, painting). Over time, the plasterboard ceiling of the bathroom will need to be refreshed - covered with new paint.
Tiled ceiling
False ceiling in the bathroom is also equipped on a frame structure. It is built for cladding with a finished facing material - ceiling hanging tiles. The main material - moisture-proof modules made of metal, plastic, plexiglass have a surface that has already been processed. An interestingly designed ceiling lighting can be a stylish design touch.
Not everyone likes the somewhat “official” style of this ceiling design. However, the hinged ceiling in the bathroom in high-tech styles, minimalism is very appropriate and organic.
Ceiling with a mirror surface
The installation of real mirrors gives the bathroom luxury and sophistication.Installation of the structure involves the installation of only a metal reinforced frame. To fix the mirror plates to the frame, holes are pre-drilled in each. It is advisable to entrust the assembly of the structure to an experienced master and then the mirror ceiling in the bathroom will last a long time.
Negative design side:
- not everyone will like the abundance of brilliance, especially in small bathrooms in the Khrushchev;
- the mirrored ceiling in the bathroom needs careful maintenance. In the conditions of the possibility of spray on the surface, it will need to be regularly cleaned;
- considerable weight and high price of mirror plates. As a budget option, you can install cassette ceilings for the bathroom. This is an Armstrong system with shiny plastic panels.
PVC stretch ceiling in the bathroom
A very practical option for decorating the ceiling. A lot of advantages: it does not get damp, it protects furniture, appliances, floors from water (in case of a flood from above). Easy care - just wipe the stretch ceiling in the bathroom with a damp cloth.
The design of the stretch ceiling in the bathroom is very wide. Many color options (matte, shiny, with photo printing, plain and patterned) allow you to design a ceiling for any room of any style and size.
Of course, there are also negative aspects: self-assembly of the structure is impossible (materials and equipment are required), the surface of the PVC can be damaged by a sharp / hard object, the yellowed / darkened areas of the white ceiling (the fixture attachment points) cannot be washed or painted over. In an unheated attic bathroom, the ceiling at 0 ° C, the ceiling becomes brittle and may crack if mechanically damaged. With increasing temperature, elasticity is restored.
PVC paneling
Plastic ceiling - the best option for the bathroom. Advantages of the material: moisture resistance, ease of installation, the ability to hide the wiring and the defects of the ceiling, you can install any number of spotlights, affordable price.
It cannot be denied that these ceilings “eat up” a certain height of the room.
How to make a ceiling in a bathroom from panels?
The plastic ceiling in the bathroom is mounted after finishing the walls, so the top edge of the tile can be considered a horizontal level for installing the frame. The depth of the ceiling frame is selected taking into account the size of the spotlights, plus 2-3 cm for stock.
Required: galvanized rails, plastic panels, primer, screws, screwdriver, drill.
- The ceiling is treated with a special primer. With the help of a building level, marking is applied to the walls. When choosing the depth of the crate, the dimensions of the pendant lights and the thickness of the crate are taken into account.
- The crate is mounted - guides along the perimeter of the wall are fixed. Suspensions are attached to the ceiling, supporting the frame from sagging (on one line, the suspensions are installed in increments of 60 cm). Longitudinal profiles are mounted at a distance of approximately 50 cm.
- A profile is installed around the perimeter (start or ceiling). Fix it with screws with a pitch of 35-50 cm. Installation of plastic panels is done across the profiles. You can cut the fabric of the desired length with a hacksaw or a knife, the edge must be cleaned with sandpaper. The panel is inserted into the start profile, slightly bent and installed in the profile on the opposite side. The canvas is carefully moved to the wall until it is firmly fixed in profiles on three sides. The free fourth side of the panel is fixed with screws to the frame.
- Gently panel the entire frame box. The last panel is slightly cut in width and screwed to the frame, and the curb is then fixed with liquid nails.
- The panel ceiling in the bathroom is equipped with spotlights. To equip the lamps, the holes are cut out after installation is complete or during the installation of the panels. The wiring for the fixtures is fixed before installing the paintings.
To correctly calculate the required amount of materials on the plastic ceiling in the bathroom, it is better to draw a diagram of the room. When choosing panels, it is taken into account that the cloths imitating slats are connected without a visible seam, and seams will be visible on the ceiling from ordinary panels.
Ceiling wishes
Often the ceilings in apartments are uneven and have cracks, potholes, so suspended, suspended ceilings are the best finishes for masking flaws.
If you want to have a multi-level ceiling design, then choose drywall. The final choice between a rack and a stretch ceiling will help to make the cost of materials and work. After all, stretch ceilings look more impressive, but their price is higher.
The main criteria for choosing a shade of the ceiling are the features of the room. The most important thing, of course, is the wishes of the owners.
Light ceilings give the room a feeling of spaciousness, while dark ones lower the room. Although the glossy black suspended ceiling in the bathroom is able to visually make the room taller.
Light colors are suitable for cozy, pacifying rooms, because it is the white ceiling that will give the room space and will go well with pastel-colored walls (light blue, olive).
For the interior of a modern style, a mirror / glass ceiling in the bathroom is suitable. Contrast combinations look vigorously - a beige ceiling and dark wood furnishings or a chocolate-colored floor.
It is impossible to list all the contrasting and harmonious combinations, because the design of the ceiling in the bathroom is largely determined by the individual taste of the owner of the apartment.
