What makes a finisher in demand and popular

Courses for finishing and repairing apartments are one of the most visited and filled areas. Interest in this is easily explained, at present, more than ever, almost every person is trying to implement the most daring creative solutions in terms of repair and decoration in his home, thereby creating his own unique style in the interior design of his home. And all this is impossible if an experienced finisher, who is able to realize all creative and design ideas on the walls, ceilings and other objects of your apartment, gets down to business. Finishing courses are the place where experienced and creative personnel are trained for work in the field of apartment decoration, and since this profession is very creative, a creative and friendly atmosphere reigns in the theory and practice of decoration classes, conducive to creating beautiful interiors by finishing works.

Interior designer and finisher, what's in common

We can say that the interior designer, in the practical embodiment of this profession, is made by the finisher, as a person who is able to realize any design idea. Each finisher, as a rule, does not start his training on his own, but takes a job at some finishing courses in Moscow, because only under the guidance of experienced practitioners can one achieve the skill that is required of finishers at the present time, and then such a specialist becomes right designer's hand. As a rule, many interior designers have their own team of finishers, familiar to him from his work, and such a tandem largely determines the success of repair or finishing work.

The apartment as it should be

Sometimes when asking such a question, many people have a poor idea of ​​​​what should happen in the end after the repair, or maybe you are moving into a new house and painfully trying to imagine what you want to do with your future apartment. An apartment finishing course can help you, the training in which is aimed primarily at not only teaching you how to finish directly, but also looking at the subject of your work creatively, with a flight of imagination and a modern approach to both finishing work and the design of apartments in in general. A finisher, of course, is, firstly, a profession that is popular and in demand, but, secondly, it is also a way of thinking when we try to express our thoughts and feelings through the creation of creative, design finishing works. Having completed training in finishing courses, you can easily not only imagine how your or another apartment should look like, you can easily bring your ideas to life.

History of the profession: The first plasterers appeared in ancient Egypt in 5000 BC. e. These people worked with plaster and clay. Their task was to level the surface of the walls both inside and outside the buildings. It was high quality technology, because their work has survived to this day, and the work of the current builders falls off the wall after 10 years. Over the centuries, changes have occurred not only in the composition of the mortar, but also in the type of tools used. Cement, which is now widespread, was invented in the 19th century by firing some of its components - gypsum, clay, lime, etc. At the same time, plasterers began to widely use this material. On the territory of our country, cement was first used in the construction of temples, and only then for buildings for other purposes ... It is not known when the first painter appeared on Earth.

The social significance of the profession in society: Builders create a very valuable commodity - real estate. Hundreds of millions of people around the world dream of it. Plasterers are also involved in the creation of this value. When commissioning a multi-storey building, the contractor must plaster huge areas, therefore, several dozen plasterers work at the construction site of such a building when performing internal work. The painter breathes life into gray buildings and objects, gives them an aesthetic appearance. Imagine that the buildings were simply plastered, the wooden railings and desks were left with brown and black stains from dirty hands, and the ships would float rusty until they drowned. Paint not only decorates the surface, it also protects it from corrosion and destruction. Of course, without painting surfaces, pipelines, cars and metal roofs would become unusable in a few years.

Description of the slide:

The mass nature and uniqueness of the profession: People with this profession work in different organizations. After all, not only construction companies contain brigades of plasterers. Such specialists also work in large organizations with a large volume of their premises, which need to be constantly repaired and rebuilt. Many plasterers prefer to look for orders themselves, without being hired by any company. Builders in this profession must be physically fit and not allergic to dust. With the appropriate education, a plasterer can eventually become a master of finishing works, but hardly anyone will go for it, since such a worker receives less money. Nowadays, a painter is easy to meet. Any interior and facade work at the construction site is not complete without these specialists. People of this profession often work in construction and installation organizations, as well as in industrial enterprises. The most important requirement for the profession is the absence of allergic diseases, since the solvent that is part of the paints is a harmful organic substance that leads to a severe deterioration in the health of people with such ailments. The painter must also be careful and, preferably, not be afraid of heights, because the walls of multi-storey buildings also need to be painted.

Brief description of the profession: Nowadays, there are different ways to clad brick or concrete walls indoors: you can use plasterboard, tiles, cladding panels, etc. But still, often preference is given to the old method - plaster. This is such a process when the walls are covered with a layer of mortar from sand, cement or gypsum. The advantage of this solution can be considered space saving, since the layer itself takes no more than 3–4 cm. A plasterer is a specialist who performs such work. Probably, most of us at least once painted something - either a country house, or a fence, or a door in an apartment. Someone who does this almost every day and earns a living from it is called a house painter. Such a person is also an artist, only buildings, cars and other objects serve instead of canvases. Not everyone who picks up a brush and a can of paint will be able to repaint the surface like a true professional. This craft also needs to be learned.

Description of the slide:

Risks of the profession: The advantage of this work should be considered good pay and the fact that it is most often performed inside the building, which means that you will not have to freeze or roast in the sun. But still, this is hard work, in which it is impossible to remain clean. After a working day at the plasterer, sand and gypsum will fasten on the teeth, and a cough is also possible due to dust settled in the lungs. Of course, this is not the safest work for health. The advantage of this profession is its internationality. After all, a painter is needed in any country - buildings are painted everywhere. And there are no complex differences in the work, for example, of Romanian and Brazilian painters. This craft is easy to learn. A significant drawback of such work should be considered the same solvent, which can bring a person to asthma in a few years.

Description of the slide:

: Job duties of a plasterer: The main purpose of plastering work is to give the buildings their final look - to finish them. Therefore, plastering is referred to as finishing work, completing the entire complex of construction work. In the course of construction, the execution of plastering works takes a certain place: they cannot be started ahead of schedule or postponed to the last moment. The main task of the plasterer is to finish all surfaces so that the building looks perfect. Smooth walls and ceilings without depressions and bumps, smooth door and window slopes, clear geometric architectural details, neatly cut facades - this is by no means a complete list of requirements for plastering surfaces. The architectural details that the plasterer deals with are very diverse. The simplest of them are padugas, which are obtained in the corners between walls and ceilings in the form of a smoothly rounded transition of the wall to the ceiling. More complex ones include curvilinear traction and flutes. Flutes are decorative grooves of the same shape; as a rule, vertical semicircular, formed on the surface of columns, semi-columns or pilasters. The plasterers, who are the first to finish the building, create the foundation - their own special facet on the diamond, which is then supplemented by workers of other professions, bringing the building to perfection ...

Labor duties of a construction painter: Much in the work of a painter depends on the choice of paint composition. Color and shade, gloss or dullness, transparency determine the decorative qualities of the finish, and the resistance of the paint to the action of light, water, gases contained in the atmosphere of the city - its operational properties. Successful completion of professional tasks requires a painter to have a good artistic taste and a high aesthetic culture. Vision is his main assistant and controller. He needs to be highly observant and highly accurate in visual perception and spatial representation, be able to analyze the spatial arrangement of decorative forms, the width and length of lines, and proportions in a drawing. The requirements for distinguishing subtle nuances of color are especially high.

Living tile "Liquid" or so-called living tile with tempered glass surface is applicable not only for flooring, but also for countertops or dining tables. Such a tile reacts to touches or steps of a person, while changing the pattern, which, of course, will add individuality and originality to the interior. "Liquid" tile has a lot of advantages. It is easy to clean, and also suppresses excessive vibration and sounds, which allows you to step on it almost silently. The disadvantages include instability to low temperatures, and sharp objects can leave noticeable marks. In addition, such tiles do not withstand heavy loads, such as heavy objects.

Flexible stone According to its properties, flexible stone can definitely be called a unique material. Elastic, only 1.5-03 mm thick, consisting of colored natural marble chips and environmentally friendly polymer, flexible stone imitates sandstone, clinker brick, slate and other similar materials. The ability to convey the natural structure of nature, as well as a wide variety of shades, is undoubtedly one of the most noticeable advantages that will appeal to those who want to give their home exclusivity. Also, this material is quite durable and unpretentious during installation work. Flexible stone can be used to decorate fireplaces, swimming pools and saunas, in the interior of bathrooms, kitchens, as well as entrance groups. In addition, this material is used for cladding walls and fences, facades.

Thermal wallpaper Wallpaper that changes its pattern under the influence of the temperature in the room is also called "blooming". They include thermal paint, which is responsible for the visual effect. Indeed, under certain conditions it is very unusual to watch how new lines or prints appear on the wall before your eyes. However, the undoubted minus of such a decorative “pleasure” at home is some difficulty in creating the same conditions with temperature changes, so it is better to glue them immediately near heaters or in places accessible to bright sunlight.

Liquid wallpaper Liquid wallpaper is an environmentally friendly material based on natural cellulose or cotton fibers. With such wallpaper, you will avoid the appearance of fungus or mold, as the walls will literally “breathe”. If any area is damaged, you can easily fix the problem without having to repair the entire surface of the wall. In addition, liquid wallpaper is antistatic, so it will definitely win favor with allergy sufferers who do not tolerate dust. Most importantly, such wallpapers do not require careful preparation of the bases, like ordinary ones, but on the contrary, they will mask minor irregularities, making the wall neater. Of the shortcomings, a relatively high price can be distinguished. The water solubility of liquid wallpaper can not be called an advantage either, but this problem can be smoothed out by covering the surface of the walls with a water-soluble varnish.

Smart glass Smart glass or smart glass as it is also called is another interesting new building material. It is used in construction, in the manufacture of windows, glass doorways, partitions and other translucent structures. Smart glass is also widely used in interior design. It is able to change its optical properties (haze, light transmission, heat absorption, etc.) as a result of changes in environmental conditions (temperature, illumination, and also when an electrical voltage is applied). Also, smart glasses include self-cleaning (for example, from rain), automatically opening (for example, for ventilation), self-heating windows. The material allows you to reduce heat loss, reduce air conditioning costs, replace traditional blinds and curtains. The disadvantages of smart glass are, of course, its high cost and the need to connect to the electrical network. .

Master of finishing construction works

PROFESSION DESCRIPTION

After long work, associated with overwork, a house was built brick by brick. One of the main and final stages of construction is bringing it into a “decent” appearance, or rather plastering, painting, and cladding. To make the building beautiful and cozy, you will need the help of a good master of finishing construction works. Only he can make the building pleasing to the eye: choose harmonious colors, decorate the floor and ceiling. Making bathrooms and kitchens with a mosaic method, in general, can be attributed not to work, but to creativity.

In order to become a real master, you need to have boundless imagination, love for beauty and accuracy. Applying the markings correctly, preparing the surface for work, preparing the necessary mortar, pasting, finishing the internal and external surfaces of the building - all this requires a lot of patience and diligence.

A finishing builder can only be called good if he fully satisfies the needs of customers, so to speak "without a hitch, without a hitch." You need to be able to listen to the wishes of the customer and do everything in the best possible way, while not violating any requirements for construction. And, in addition to all of the above, skills in this profession can be useful not only at work, but also in life.

HISTORICAL REFERENCE

The construction industry in Russia today is gaining a second wind. Housing construction has been given the status of a priority national project "Affordable and Comfortable Housing for the Citizens of Russia". And this means an increase in the pace of construction. Therefore, construction professions will always be in demand in the labor market. One of them is “Master of finishing construction works”. The master of finishing construction works must be able to perform external and internal plastering, painting, facing works, the simplest stone, furnace, electric welding, installation and other types of work.

The builder is one of the oldest professions. Many archaeological sites, through which we learn about the past of mankind, are ancient buildings. Many buildings are still standing, although their age is measured in thousands of years. The secrets of the building craft have been accumulated over the centuries, carefully kept and passed down from generation to generation, from masters to students. The first plasterers appeared in ancient Egypt about 7,000 years ago. They worked with plaster and clay. Their task was to level the surface of the walls both inside and outside the buildings. It was high quality technology as their work has survived to this day. Over the centuries, changes have occurred not only in the composition of the mortar, but also in the type of tools used. Cement, which is now widely used, was invented only in the 19th century. At the same time, plasterers began to widely use this material.

Painting work is carried out during the final finishing of buildings and structures, before putting them into operation. They include decorative finishing of facades, painting of walls, ceilings, partitions, floors, doors, windows and other elements. The painter is the last to leave the construction site, his work crowns the work of the entire team of builders.

Facing works include finishing the facades of buildings with ceramic and concrete slabs, laying stone and concrete steps of external stairs, installing fence posts and parapets made of hewn stone, facing embankments and span structures of bridges. The tile gives the building a beautiful, finished look, increases the resistance of surfaces to moisture and temperature, increases the durability of buildings, improves sanitary and hygienic conditions in the premises. In addition, the tiler performs work on the installation of tiled floors and lining the internal surfaces of the walls of baths, laundries, sanitary facilities, bathrooms and other premises. Another area of ​​work for a tiler is artistic mosaic, which is a surface decoration with a pattern made from small pieces of specially prepared opaque glass, called smalt, or small decorative stones. Mosaics are typed according to a drawing previously made by the artist in paints.

The work of a builder has always been held in high esteem. The mission of the builders is noble - their work brings people joy, although their profession cannot be called easy. They often change construction sites, each time they have to adapt to new conditions. Therefore, this profession is suitable for people who are mobile, easy-going, able to easily endure the temporary difficulties of an unsettled life.
