I install the lining. The work starts from the ceiling, since it is the most difficult to attach the slats there. I recommend starting from the far wall, measuring and sawing off each slat separately. If you saw off a lot of parts at once, you may encounter a situation where a large gap forms between the wall and the decorative trim, which cannot be masked with a baseboard.
Installation of slats using clamps.
By the way, you can't attach the lining too close to the walls. You need to leave a small gap to compensate for the thermal expansion of the finishing material.
The first board is attached to the lathing using screws on one side and clamps on the other. Clamps are metal fasteners that allow you to install the lining lamellas without screwing screws directly into them.
The next board is inserted with a tenon georgia mobile database the groove of the previous one, after which it is also secured with clamps.
The last lamella is also fixed with screws at the edge.
I attach the lining to the slopes. Here again I need to work hard. I saw each board separately and mount it using a water level.
The lining in window openings can be replaced with ready-made plastic slopes.
If you do not have enough skills for such an operation, you can use ready-made plastic slopes. They are easy to install in the window opening, and they go well with wooden trim. Especially if you have plastic windows.
I install ceiling and floor skirting boards. Naturally, it is better to use wooden ones, although plastic ones look quite organic.
You can choose the skirting board based on your own preferences.
The main difficulty is sawing the baseboards to join them together in the corners. For this, I always use a miter box and a hand saw.
I cover the walls with varnish. I use a brush or a roller for this. Keep in mind that many varnishes are poisonous, so you should only work in a well-ventilated room.
Varnished paneling.
After covering the wood with varnish in several layers, I can confidently say that the operation of finishing the balcony with wood is finished. You can go and hand in the work.
Then this area will be masked by a ceiling plinth.
