When there were no verandas during the construction of the house (this building is missing in the project), the owners make a decision to independently attach the veranda to the house or abandon this venture. You can build a veranda and yourself, you do not need to invite the construction team and punch a hole in the wall of the house, you can make an extension close to the main facade, immediately before the entrance door, then you do not need to break the carrier wall and carry out heating.
What else to take into account during the construction of the veranda:
- The structure should be harmonized with the overall design of the house. For the reliability and stability of the extension will have to make a foundation.

The choice of the foundation type is very important not only therefore, because the extension will have to sneak from the inside. Often, at the construction stage, the owners of a private house or giving are interested in what can be seen a cold veranda. The choice of materials is huge, it is important to choose a gold middle and take into account the burden on the foundation.

Popular finishing material for walls is MDF panels. The length of one rail or a wide board is from 2.5 to 3 m, width - 15 or 30 cm. In a construction store, a wide range of panels of different shade is presented, you can choose finishing materials for every taste. By the way, the surface of the panels can be different: mimic the stone, wood and other materials.
What are the advantages of this material:
- Large selection of shades, plus noble appearance.

- Easy installation is a huge advantage of this finishing material. It is enough just to set the crate from the rails, and then attach the panels.
- Pleasant price - the cost of panels is low, so everyone can choose an acceptable option for itself.
You can briefly describe the process of mounting MDF panels as follows: First you need to attach wooden rails to the walls (you can buy metal, but then the cost of the lining of the veranda will be higher). For a frame, you can use the remaining building material, this owner always has a lot of materials, from which you can build a frame. It is important to adhere to the size: the rack thickness should not exceed 2 cm, the widths are enough 4-cm.
Attach wooden rails on nails to adjust the uneven walls. Then you will not have to mess around with additional alignment of the walls and acquire expensive materials.
To work, you will need a construction level or a plumb, so that the wall as a result of the plating turned out to be smooth.
In each panel there is a deepening or groove, the first panel must be installed from the angle and fasten with screws, the second panel must be put on the side from the first to the stop so that it goes into the recess and move it to click. The process of plating the walls of walls does not take much time, it is quick and even interesting.
If you need to strip the window or door opening, you must cut the panel. It is easy enough to make it, you can use the usual saw or electric jig.
Transitions on the floor and ceiling can be hidden using a plinth. The main thing is to choose the right shade of the plinth, so that the veranda in general looked worthily.
A wide selection of shades and textures of the MDF panels allows you to implement any ideas in reality. It is interesting to be a veranda, covered with panels of different shades, especially if you choose the materials in color. You can even single out several zones: for recreation, for meals, a corner for work and so on.
PVC panels for interior veranda
What else can you persuade the veranda? Save funds and sew walls inside an extension can be plastic panels. This finishing material is perfectly adaptable to improving humidity and temperature drop. PVC panels are inexpensive and practical material. The cost of panels is low, with the installation, everyone will cope, care for the panels is very simple. It is enough to wipe the walls slightly damp sponge. By the way, due to the ease of installation and inexpensive cost of this finishing material, the PVC panels can be updated every 3-5 years, changing the appearance of the room. Suppose you attracted a panel imitating tree - you can try to make this room in eco-style. If the walls "under the tree" are tired, the panels are easy to change to new, imitating fabric, metal surfaces and even natural stone. A rich selection of texture and shades, plus low cost and ease of installation - these are the main advantages of PVC panels. By the way, it is not only walls on the veranda, but also the ceiling.
To cope with the works yourself, you will need a wooden slack for the frame (size 30x20 mm or 30x10 mm). If there is no tree, you can purchase a special profile (for fasteners of plasterboard). Please note that it is necessary to choose the material for the frame with the type of veranda. If the walls protrude out, then it is better to buy wooden slats, as the metal will be a "cold bridge".
The panels are attached to the frame with the help of fastening material (screws or nails), only it is necessary to leave a small gap between the ceiling and the wall so that the board "breathes". The gap 2-3 cm will be enough.
This finishing material has not only advantages, but also disadvantages: fragile panels, so if you accidentally hook the wall, enters the furniture on the veranda, then you can break the panels.
Tip: If you plan to equip the veranda as a summer dining room, then in order for the backs of the chairs, they do not deform the walls of PVC panels, at the level of the backrest on the wall it is desirable to nourish additional protection. A decorative wooden plank with a pattern or board, covered with a beautiful cloth looks beautifully. It turns out beautiful and unusual, and the veranda will be your favorite holiday destination.
Wall paneling for the walls of the veranda

In construction supermarkets, you can choose a finishing material for every taste and wallet. Pay attention to the one-piece board, the cost of such a material will be an order of magnitude higher than the price of a scrambled board (consisting of several parts). Such material externally does not differ from the whole board and is suitable exclusively for finishing interior. If your veranda is not heated in the cold season, it is better to get a solid wood lining. If these recommendations ignore and see the walls of the veranda of a cheaper material, then as a result of operation and temperature / humidity drops, cracks will begin to appear on the surface. Naturally, the appearance of such a premises will not be so attractive as immediately after repair. Yes, and the strength of the finishing material is already in doubt.

The cost of such a lining is lower than that of the extra-class finishing material, only small nuances can be seen on the surface - dents and swirls. Such boards are already impregnated with special composition and processed with putty, so that preliminary preparation will not be required. There is another marking of solid wood lining - class "Extra". The cost of such a material is high, quality - at the height.
By purchasing any finishing material, it is advisable to open the packaging still in the store to compare the shade of the panels in each package and eliminate the marriage.
