Traditionally, the walls in the kitchen are either painted or wallpaper. But why not use laminate as a finishing material?
Someone will say that it is expensive. But in fact, the cost of repairs will be quite affordable.
Laminate on the walls is fashionable, modern and aesthetically pleasing, and most importantly - practical. Such walls can be washed and cleaned without dirt or grease. In the case of wallpaper or paint, cleaning is not always possible.
For laying on the walls it is not necessary to take an expensive laminate of the 33rd class. A more budget option is quite suitable - a laminate of the 32nd class.
Pros and Cons of Laminate Wall Decoration
In general, this is a relatively inexpensive method of wall decoration - the average cost of 1 square. m. together with mounting nails is 650-700 rubles.
Thus, wall decoration in the kitchen with laminate is not only accessible to everyone, but also quick and cheerful. The view at the walls is presentable.
In this case, during the repair process there will be no dust and dirt, which is also important.
Well, one of the most important advantages of laminate wall decoration is that you can do it yourself, or even alone. No need to hire craftsmen or ask for help from acquaintances and friends.
There are no obvious disadvantages of this method of wall decoration. Unless you need to prepare an even base, without hollows and bumps.
However, you must admit that the same preparation will be needed when wallpapering or painting.
But at the same time, the use of the laminate is also beneficial because the walls will not need to be puttied and sanded several times.
What to laminate laminate on?
In this case, you can use several options - mounting foam, liquid nails and polyurethane adhesive sealant.
Foam is good, but when it is used, there is a chance of the laminate bursting, and the wall will turn out to be uneven.
Polyurethane adhesive-sealant is a cool thing, but it costs a lot. Therefore, the best option is liquid nails.
