The question is why it is necessary to provide 2 customs declarations (one preliminary short of 50 columns and a standard one of 10-15 columns for the same product within 2-3 days??
I wonder where our people managed to get it from which country or is it their own invention to complicate business and replenish the budget through such fines?
The desire to make repairs does not always coincide with the warm season, so you should determine whether wallpaper can be glued in winter in this particular room.
The outdoor temperature will not be a determining factor if it is possible to meet the technological requirements inside the room. If you stick any topcoat with violations of the rules, then a bad result is obtained in the summer.
Work quality factors
It is very important to comply with the technical conditions required for a particular brand of wallpaper. The conditions under which it will be possible to stick wallpaper on a prepared surface with high quality are not too long a list:
- compliance with the manufacturer's instructions for working with this brand of wallpaper;
- correct preparation of the adhesive in the volume for 1 work shift;
- dry warm wall;
- lack of drafts;
- constant temperature.
When getting acquainted with the technological map of wall gluing, one of the main conditions is the prevention of intensive air movement in the room until it is dry:
It is in winter that there are fewer issues with the occurrence of a draft. Window, the window is rarely opened for a short time. Operating heating devices and cold exterior walls can have a greater effect.
Radiators
The most difficult place for gluing is the surface behind the radiators When the heating in the room is running, the air becomes dry, which causes intensive removal of moisture through the sheet material. With dense moisture-proof types of wallpaper, the risk of peeling occurs at the joints and edges.
This effect is most pronounced in the immediate vicinity of the radiators, where there is a high speed of convective air movement (between the heating surface and the wall).
Such an effect on the adhesive mass does not allow it to grab evenly on the wall. There is warping and peeling of the strip.
Moisten a suitable foam sheet with water and press it against the canvas An effective way to compensate for the temperature effect of the radiator is the use of protective humidification.
A fragment of foam rubber, foam rubber (foam foam) suitable in size and thickness is moistened with water and the wallpaper is pressed against the wall, leading it into the gap between the hot radiator and the wall.
Another way to increase the setting strength in a short period of time is to additionally add PVA to the wallpaper glue.
Temperature Requirements
It is most convenient to glue wallpaper at positive temperatures up to 25 degrees Celsius Heating in the house where the renovation is being carried out can be of different intensity, so it is important to know at what air temperature you can glue the wallpaper in the room.
With stable heating and closed external doors and windows, there will be no large temperature difference.
The technical conditions unambiguously establish at what temperature to glue the wallpaper, regardless of the time of year:
- The temperature regime is in the range from 10°C to 25°C. It provides a gradual and uniform drying of moisture from under the sheet. Before starting work, this temperature is maintained for 2-3 days for uniform heating of wall materials.
- The humidity of the ambient air is not more than 60%. High humidity reduces the adhesive properties of the composition (thinning it), which leads to the appearance of bubbles or peeling of the web.
- Direct sunlight gives uneven heating of the wall surface and, in addition to fading colors, can contribute to the formation of wrinkles or displacement of the sheet.
- Do not speed up the drying process. It lasts about 1 day. It should not be included in addition to the existing heating fan heater, convector. The "warm floor" system must be turned off. Moreover, you can not open doors and windows to remove odors and get results faster.
- should be primed on porous coatings in several layers with a more liquid adhesive (for this type of wallpaper) until a protective film appears on its surface.
The underfloor heating system must be turned off during work With poor thermal insulation or insufficient design thickness, the outer walls can freeze through, significantly differing in this value from the internal partitions.
When cooled to 0 ° C or below, the canvas will simply freeze to the plaster and fall off when heat sets in.
If the surface temperature cannot be raised above + 10 ° C, the answer to the question: is it possible to glue wallpaper in winter - no. The material can quickly fall off or become moldy.
Features by type of wallpaper
Stamps behave most stably when pasting in winter conditions when pasting walls with them. Dense material increases the evaporation time of moisture, but makes the process more uniform. Some secrets you need to know for, see this video:
You can easily and quickly paste over a room with paper products. The thin base quickly gets rid of water, which is important when working in winter. This type of material is best applied with an overlap, preventing the paper from puckering and creating gaps between the paper strips.
Vinyl wallpaper is somewhat denser than its paper counterpart, and dries quickly. The surface to be pasted must be dry and carefully prepared so that later defects in the base do not appear on the coating.
In terms of repair, a country residence for recreation is somewhat different from a city apartment. It's all about living conditions. The dacha can be with all the conditions and communications, or maybe not. Therefore, the owner of the property faces a number of practical issues. What wallpaper to choose for the country house? In general, why wallpaper in the country? How to glue wallpaper in the country? Which to choose?
Traditionally, a dacha is a building for the warm season. Therefore, wallpaper for giving should be chosen with an almost professional look, so that they please the eye, and do not fly off after a while. For a country room, a type of wallpaper is suitable that will not fade under the influence of the country sun and will withstand the harmful effects of humidity. In addition, the wallpaper should be easy to clean and restore.
Glue wallpaper in the country, for example, you can paper. They will not hit the wallet, but at the same time it will be difficult to glue them perfectly. You need a completely flat surface without flaws, two pairs of hands and dexterity. But it’s not a pity to re-paste this option for the next year, because paper wallpapers quickly fade and lose their presentation.
You can use vinyl wallpaper. An ideal option to buy such wallpaper for painting. They are easy to wash and periodically put in order. They are not afraid of the direct scorching sun, and if necessary, the walls can be repainted many times. Foamed vinyl or silk-screen printing is suitable, which wallpaper to glue in the country is a personal choice.
There is another option, but it is much more expensive. This is cork wallpaper for summer cottages. Cork is an eco-friendly material that, in style, is most suitable for a country house. These wallpapers are easy to clean. And any stains can be removed with sandpaper. According to its structure, cork wallpapers consist of plain paper on which a cork layer is applied. Cork is a material that is approved by allergists - it does not collect dust.
Liquid wallpaper is also suitable for giving. They look like plaster. The consistency of the solution is applied to the surface of the wall, and the drawing is done with a spatula. Then everything is varnished.
Experienced summer residents are advised not to save when choosing wallpaper. It is better to choose an option in which the decor lasts longer. You can find quality wallpaper at a discounted price in the sale. You can combine materials. For example, to cover one wall with vinyl, and to finish the second with another material, a good owner must have left pieces of wallpaper after repairs in the apartment.
Regardless of the cost of the purchased wallpaper for giving, in no case should you save on the adhesive solution. Each type of wallpaper has its own glue. It is better to buy this ideal couple together and from the same manufacturer. Universal glue is not the best option. You need to pay attention to the expiration date and the availability of instructions for use. It is better not to purchase glue without specifying the company, otherwise the wallpapering process may be spoiled.
You should know that wallpaper with a small pattern is preferable for country walls, because they are the least visible traces of burnout. Light colors will visually expand the small space of the cottage. If the ceiling at the dacha is low, then this can be corrected with striped wallpaper. The strip seems to lift the ceiling up. The larger the room, the wider the selected strip can be.
For wallpapering in the country, you need to stock up on the following tools: spatulas (small and large), brush, roller, plastic spatula, pencil, tape measure, knife.
Even if the dacha is a temporary place of rest, its design should not be neglected. In any room, the owner should be comfortable. Dacha is the place where you can fantasize and turn your craziest thoughts into reality.
The cottage is a great place for relaxation and family gatherings. Moreover, many people live in the country not only in the summer, but also come there all year round, which means that the country house must be fully furnished and finished. Sometimes the walls are left wooden, but more often they are painted or wallpapered. What you need to know when choosing a wall covering for a summer residence?
What to pay attention to
Unlike a city apartment with solid walls and a cottage equipped for a comfortable life all year round, as a rule, a country house is designed for living in the summer. Therefore, when choosing wallpaper for a summer residence, pay attention to the fact that they should be:
- resistant to temperature changes;
- fade resistant;
- moisture and dust repellent;
Also wallpaper for giving should be easy to wash and clean.
What wallpapers are
Today on the market you can find a great variety of wallpapers designed for a variety of needs, but not all of them are suitable for giving. Consider options that can be used in an unheated room.
- Vinyl wallpapers. Probably the best option for a country house: they are not afraid of the sun, they are easy to clean, they calmly endure the winter cold and are resistant to mold. If the roof does not leak, nothing will happen to them in 6-9 months.
- Paper wallpaper. The cheapest, but at the same time the most difficult to glue, since the surface must be absolutely even. When flaking, fading or moldy paper wallpapers can be easily and inexpensively replaced with new ones.
- Cork wallpaper. According to their characteristics, they are similar to vinyl wallpaper, but, unlike them, they are completely environmentally friendly. Another advantage of them: they perfectly insulate the room from noise and heat. Designed for washing and cleaning.
- Fiberglass wallpaper. A relatively expensive option, but well suited for a country house. Waterproof, flame retardant, eco-friendly.
- The liquid wallpaper. According to the structure and principle of application, they resemble plaster rather than wallpaper, and in fact they are its analogue. They are diluted in containers and applied to the wall with a spatula. Of the minuses - non-moisture resistance, but this disadvantage can be eliminated by varnishing the wallpaper.
What else do you need to know
When choosing wallpaper for the country, use the following tips.
- Don't skimp on wallpaper
This also includes glue, plaster and other materials involved in the decoration of walls in the country. As a rule, the area of a country house is not so large, so it makes sense to invest in high-quality wallpaper and glue - they will last you longer, thereby allowing you to save on repairs.
- Combine materials
It is not necessary to glue wallpaper in all rooms. For a country house, their combination with wood, stone, brick or simple plaster is perfect.
- Choose your color wisely
Since country wallpapers are most prone to fading, choose a color scheme with this fact in mind. Thus, the fading of light and pastel colors is not only less noticeable, but these colors also visually increase the space.
Using these tips, you will know what to look for when buying wallpaper for a summer residence, and you will definitely not make a mistake in choosing.

Today choose wallpaper for repair in a country house.
So, you have resolved the first dilemma: glue or paint. Then - behind the wallpaper? Don't rush to the store! Read this article first. Otherwise, the variety of options may confuse you.
AT selection of wallpaper for renovation in a country house
Wallpaper types
It is very difficult to clearly classify all modern wallpapers. But let's try. If we talk about the appearance, then we can distinguish three main types of wallpaper: smooth (matte and glossy), embossed (corrugated or embossed), as well as imitating the texture of various materials (manufacturing options are very different).
Wallpapers are distinguished by density (up to 110 g / m² are considered light, the rest are heavy) and by the type of base and manufacturing technology:
- paper
— vinyl
- non-woven
– textile
- fiberglass.
Let's take a look at the pros and cons of each type:
Very important parameters in everyday life - moisture and wear resistance
Classic wallpapers do not have any protective top layer, and therefore they do not require any cleaning, except for dry.
Ordinary moisture-resistant wallpaper can endure infrequent cleaning with a slightly damp cloth or sponge without the use of cleaners and detergents.
Washable wallpaper is more durable - they are no longer afraid of special detergents.
Superwashable wallpaper can be washed not only with a sponge, but also with a brush, and the cleaning procedure can be carried out at least every day.
And finally, lightfastness
This parameter is very important if your room is on the sunny side.
And now about what you need to pay attention to when choosing the type of wallpaper:
Wall condition
If the walls are even and smooth, without cracks and bumps, any wallpaper will do. But usually there are flaws - to a greater or lesser extent. If the walls are uneven, immediately cross out thin and glossy wallpapers from the list - they will only emphasize all the defects. It is best to mask the shortcomings of the primary finish with embossed vinyl or non-woven wallpaper.
Purpose of the premises
If it is a priori assumed that the walls will get very dirty, then it is better to choose a washable or super washable coating. For example, in the corridor or in the kitchen. But in the nursery, it may be better to stick, on the contrary, cheap paper wallpapers: all the same, the creativity and curiosity of the ubiquitous little robbers will eventually render any coating unusable. So the question here is economic feasibility.
Master's experience
If you are going to glue wallpaper for the first time, you should not choose the cheapest and, conversely, expensive and complex materials. With thin paper, the beginner is tormented. They stretch and tear, and they need to be smoothed out skillfully, and skill is needed to fight the bubbles. A lot of nuances exist with fabric wallpaper . You should not buy wallpapers that require adjustment of the pattern or those that are glued with an overlap, and then joined through a double cut (see table above). The most versatile option vinyl and non-woven wallpaper. They are durable and do not change size, and the adhesive only needs to be applied to the wall.
Choosing a wallpaper color
Choicecolors and wallpaper pattern - This is a very important stage. Seemingly harmless mistakes can lead to very serious consequences - up to a nervous breakdown.
Dining room/kitchen
Remember: orange, yellow and green hues help whet your appetite. So if you have been struggling with excess weight all your life, give them up in favor of cold colors. You should not choose too bright colors - they not only contribute to eye fatigue, but also quickly get bored. After some time, acid yellow or bright scarlet wallpapers that are so pleasant at first can begin to cause irritation. It is best to choose calm soft shades - they will create a cozy atmosphere in your kitchen or dining room.
Living room
On the one hand, this is the room where we receive guests, and theoretically it should have a grand appearance. For this purpose, red and burgundy tones work well. But you need to use them in the interior very carefully - it is important not to overdo it here. After all, an excess of red can make a person more irritable and aggressive. Are you sure you need it?
It is also important to remember that light colors make the room more spacious and airy. With dark tones, the opposite is true. But here a lot depends on furniture, textiles, and accessories. Sometimes even black walls can look light and weightless in the right frame.
Children's
That's where you don't need to experiment with bright colors - it's in the nursery! Children are already prone to overexcitation, so you should not risk choosing flashy tones. The calmer the shades, the better. The ideal option is light shades of warm green.
Choose a wallpaper pattern
Choosing a wallpaper pattern - This is also a very important moment. The ornament on the walls is able to expand or, conversely, stretch the room, make the ceiling higher or lower, emphasize or level the curvature of the walls.
Here are a few features of the "behavior" of the picture on the walls:
- longitudinal pattern increases the height of the room
- transverse wide stripes allow you to make the room visually wider
- if the room is high, it is better to choose wallpaper with a large pattern;
- if wide - a large drawing should also be bright
- if you plan to decorate the wall with paintings, photos or a carpet, then it is better to choose wallpaper with a small pattern or without it at all.
And now - about the pros and cons of different types of wallpaper
paper wallpaper
paper wallpaper surrounded by their modern neighbors look like obvious outsiders. They are fragile, they cannot be cleaned and washed, it is difficult to stick them, they fade. But there are several indisputable advantages: they are cheap, environmentally friendly and you don’t feel sorry for them. And sometimes there are paper wallpapers with a stunning pattern.
A little trick: use paper wallpapers where they are not afraid of dirt, sunlight and external influences. For example, in the upper part of the walls, paneled below.
Vinyl wallpapers
These wallpapers consist of two layers - a woven or paper base and a decorative layer of polyvinyl chloride with a pattern applied to it. It is thanks to him that these wallpapers are not afraid of moisture. However, it does not save from mechanical influences.
There are many types of vinyl wallpaper. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Compact Vinyl Wallpaper, imitating heavy materials, such as plaster, stone, brick, textiles. They perfectly tolerate mechanical stress, have high strength indicators and are unpretentious in operation.
Heavy vinyl most often used in rooms with not very even walls. Such wallpapers, due to their density and colorful pattern, perfectly hide surface irregularities and flaws.
Vinyl wallpapers with chemical embossing- a great option for apartments located on the sunny side. They do not fade in the sun and endure wet cleaning with detergents.
silkscreen
silkscreen- smooth wallpaper with a sheen that resembles the sheen of silk. Very beautiful, but require a perfectly prepared surface.
Glass fiber
Glass fiber is a new type of material. It is distinguished by the fact that it is based on woven fiberglass strands that make your wall covering not only beautiful, but also very durable.
The advantages of the new material are many:
- Eco-friendly and hypoallergenic
– fire resistance
– non-toxicity
- high strength and resistance to mechanical stress (dog fangs, cat claws, etc.)
– durability (according to the manufacturer’s forecasts – up to 30 years)
– cost-effectiveness (glass fiber can be painted up to 6 times)
But there are also disadvantages:
- these wallpapers can only be glued on perfectly flat surfaces, which must be carefully prepared before that: clean, putty and reinforce with a large mesh;
- glue glass wall paper
it is only necessary for a special, and rather expensive glue
- this is a paintable wallpaper with all the ensuing consequences: they need to be painted and you can forget about the design with roses or fleur-de-lis.
Non-woven wallpaper
This wallpaper is not made of paper, but of non-woven fabric - a material with a fine texture and a smooth surface. Its basis is viscose, which gives the wallpaper strength and elasticity. These wallpapers come in two types - plain non-woven and vinyl-coated. The former are usually plain, the latter are more often with a pattern.
Pros:
- thick solid base non-woven wallpaper allows you to mask small cracks and uneven walls
- fire resistance, fire safety
—non-woven wallpaper(without a vinyl layer) are well breathable, allowing the walls to "breathe"
- ease of gluing: the wallpaper does not tear or stretch, moreover, it often has an increased width
- easy care: can be washed with detergents
- the vinyl layer is easily separated from the non-woven base, which makes it easier to prepare for the next repair
Minuses:
- resistance to mechanical damage
- price
- for wallpaper for painting - additional costs for paint
Textile wallpapers
At textile wallpaper a layer of various woven materials is applied to the base of paper or non-woven fabric. These wallpapers look very nice. These rooms are usually very comfortable. But you have to pay for beauty and comfort. And not only money.
Pros:
- Expensive look
- resistance to ultraviolet
- sound absorption
– environmental friendliness
- additional thermal insulation
Minuses:
- get dirty easily
- tolerate dry cleaning only
- fragile
- absorb odors
- the complexity of installation.
- high price.
What kind wallpaper choose- you decide. But whatever you decide, remember a few basic rules:
- always buy wallpaper from the same batch
- be sure to check the quality of the wallpaper (different thicknesses are unacceptable)
- the edges of the canvases must always be protected by packaging
- avoid opaque packages, they do not show the pattern.
