Toilet ceiling options

People often underestimate the importance of toilet design. But even in this room you should take care of an aesthetic and stylish decoration, competent arrangement. Fortunately, today in the stores of building and decoration materials you can meet many high-quality products that will decorate the toilet. Today we will talk about how you can finish the ceiling in this room.

Before proceeding to a detailed examination of all the features of finishing materials, It is worthwhile to understand what are the main requirements for them in the conditions of the toilet room.

• The finish must be moisture resistant. The material should not be afraid of dampness and moisture, since it is in the bathroom that it will undergo constant contact with them. Accumulating condensation can seriously damage a lining that is not moisture resistant. The specified requirements are met by modern polyvinyl chloride panels, PVC film, rack coatings.
• Finishing material for the ceiling in the toilet should ensure perfect tightness of the room. In case of flooding of the apartment by neighbors, there is a high probability that one of the first will be hit by a toilet. It is important to take this factor into account when choosing a way to design the ceiling in the bathroom. So, tightness can be seen on film stretch linens - they can easily withstand a load of up to 100 liters of liquid per 1 square. m
• The ceiling covering must in no case impede access to pipes or communication systems. These objects at any time may require an inevitable replacement, and if you can’t get to them, it can cause serious troubles. The ceiling should be installed only one that will not interfere with the repair or replacement of problem areas.
• Finishing should not make the ceiling even lower. This is especially true for bathrooms, the height of which already leaves much to be desired. Try to choose and install ceilings that take up space in the room to a minimum. The lion's share of bathrooms, especially in old-built houses, are very small. Installing in such an environment mounted or multi-level structures is inappropriate.
• The ceiling in the toilet should be practical. A bathroom is a room in which the need for regular cleaning occurs much more often. It is great if the surface of the base can be washed without problems using detergents or wiped with a damp sponge.

To finish the ceiling in the toilet, it is important to choose only the most suitable materials that meet all the requirements listed above. There are several products that will be the best solution for this room. Let's get to know better their characteristics and features.

One of the most beautiful and spectacular options. It is easy to wash - it is not afraid of moisture. Such decoration does not absorb various particles, and over the years will not lose its beauty and brightness. It boasts good soundproofing qualities, environmentally friendly. But this finish has its drawbacks.

Stretch ceilings in the toilet are installed less often than in other rooms. The bathroom is often small, and its area is not enough for sufficient tension. Such finishes can be expensive.

Do not confuse with tension. When organizing a false ceiling in the toilet, various materials can be used. The installation process may also vary, so the choice in this case becomes huge.

One of the varieties of the suspended ceiling is the rack structure. This is a budget finish. Even if a team of craftsmen is involved in the installation, the final cost of the construction will still not be expensive. Reiki can be made of aluminum and other materials suitable for this. True, with a slatted ceiling, the height of the room will noticeably decrease, there will not be much choice in colors.

Another option from the budget category. The panels are presented in a wide range. They come in both plain and color, and even with drawings / prints. They are installed quickly and easily, are not afraid of moisture. In cleaning, plastic panels are undemanding, but also have their drawbacks:

• the surface of the panels will not be continuous, and seamless structures can cost a tidy sum;
• the picture on the panels is distinguished by a longitudinal orientation, therefore it is necessary to carefully “fit” one part to another;
• it is a fragile finishing material, it is necessary to transport it with the utmost care.

To finish the ceiling in the toilet, you can use not only PVC panels, but also drywall. But here simple sheets will not work. Only moisture resistant materials may be used. Similar products are mounted on the same principle as other popular pendant-type designs.

From the drywall on the ceiling, you can build a variety of designs of complex and intricate shapes. It is from GKL that the most beautiful and correct multi-level structures are obtained.

Even the most high-quality moisture-resistant drywall can not remain intact and withstand flooding from neighbors living on top. The height of the bathroom with a similar finish will inevitably decrease, therefore in very small rooms it is better to give preference to another option.

Wooden lining is another popular material that in many cases is used to decorate the ceiling in the bathroom. The demand for this product is explained by its operational characteristics, environmental safety, pleasant appearance, and high practicality.

You don’t have to worry about a high level of humidity with such a finish, because it is treated with a special impregnation that protects the material well from negative external factors. But to install these popular and beautiful finishing materials, you will have to first build a strong frame. In addition, it will be necessary to regularly care for the wooden lining so that it does not lose its properties and beautiful appearance.

These are the simplest finishes. They will cost inexpensively, they will not require much effort. But all coloring compounds should only be moisture resistant, otherwise they will not keep their attractiveness in the toilet for a long time. From time to time, both painting and whitewashing will need to be updated. It is recommended to choose high-quality paint or acrylic compositions.

Popular material that can make the design of the toilet more attractive and stylish. Height differences can be hidden with such materials. This decoration in the room will not take away extra space. On the contrary tiles on the ceiling can visually enlarge the bathroom, make it lighter and taller.

When choosing the option of finishing the ceiling in the toilet, it is important to pay attention to the color design of the materials. The assortment of the latter allows you to find a successful and harmonious option for any situation. Most often, for the bathroom, they choose coverings of such attractive colors as:

• the black;
• white;
• brown (its different shades);
• red;
• beige;
• cream;
• purple;
• purple;
• peach;
• pink;
• pale green;
• blue.

If desired, you can find not only monophonic, but also a brighter, color version of the finish. However, it is not recommended to install such materials in a room where the walls and floor are just as colorful, otherwise the situation will turn out to be flashy, intrusive and annoying.

Today on sale regularly come the original, bright and effective finishing materials, supplemented by photo printing. Such a design of the ceiling can fundamentally change the appearance of the interior, making it more original. Otherwise, these products can be called art objects that adorn the ceiling base.

Drawings or photographs of various kinds can be applied not only to plastic panels, but also to stretch-type canvas. Such solutions would look good in the toilet:

• flower arrangements;
• image of water surface and splashes;
• realistic underwater spaces;
• cosmic motives;
• geometric figures;
• abstraction
• images of volumetric drops;
• fish and butterflies.

There are a lot of options with which image to decorate the ceiling in the toilet. Choose a specific option, starting from the color scheme, which sustains the interior of the bathroom, as well as its style.

Making the ceiling in the toilet, it is not enough to pay attention only to the finishing materials or drawings on them. It is equally important to correctly place suitable lighting objects on a ceiling base. There are several lighting options suitable for this room.

• Backlight Based on the level of backlight intensity, you can achieve a visual expansion of the space, to form a muffled atmosphere in the room. Often, diode tapes are installed if two-level (or more), soaring or plasterboard ceilings were used.

• Spotlights. Are applied in the conditions of a bathroom more often than other options. They are inexpensive and look aesthetically pleasing. For the bathroom, you should choose lamps that are distinguished by a high degree of protection against dampness and moisture. Such products are able to sufficiently illuminate the room and organically fit into a small space.

• Wall sconces. Also ideal for arranging a toilet. The main thing is to install them in places where they will not be an obstacle. It is important to monitor the style of lighting fixtures to the interior. It is worth choosing wear-resistant options that will seamlessly serve in a bathroom.

The general view of the interior of the toilet depends on the ceiling decoration. Thanks to the beautiful design of the ceiling base, you can give the atmosphere a unique shine and style. Let's look at some interesting examples.

• Against the background of walls finished with wide glossy tiles combining graphite and white paints, a laconic white ceiling will harmoniously look. Suitable for its design as a plastic or GKL design, as well as conventional painting.

• In the toilet, where the walls are decorated with light peach-colored tiles, and the line along the ceiling with burgundy tiles, you can install a beautiful stretch ceiling in pale pink. In such an environment, large-sized recessed luminaires displayed on a ceiling base in 2 rows will harmoniously look.

• A glossy stretch ceiling of black color may also look good in the toilet, but it is advisable to install it if the walls are finished with light materials. It can be a tile combining beige / white and gray colors. It is necessary to supplement the film on the ceiling with a sufficient number of built-in and spotlights.

• The soaring stretch ceiling of a juicy dark red shade will look gorgeous in the toilet. Along the perimeter it is worth highlighting a white diode backlight.
