The merging of the two environments is a common solution. The project, which involves the demolition of at least one wall, the problem of pavimentazione.Se coatings are of value, and should be maintained, we must study a way to connect them.
Between the floors, removing a plank, it will form a break where no coating. The size of this gap depends on the number and length of the walls removed. Often its width is not less than 15 cm, which is equivalent to the thickness of a wall brick finished plaster. Wanting to keep the existing coating, the inconvenience can be solved in different ways.
A good workforce is always essential if the work is performed in a workmanlike manner. It may happen that the two floors are located at different heights because the materials have different thicknesses. If the difference is less than 1.5 cm, is remedied by calibrating the glue in the laying of the connection elements, so as to cancel the difference.
When both the floors are parquet
As wood hue varies with time, even if you use strips identical to those existing, must lamare the entire floor for asportarne the surface layer. The finish will make it uniform. The new elements should put them to run, because it is often not possible to continue with the geometry already used in such a way that the addition result imperceptible. Appropriate strips, sayings,-sticking, enables us to associate the band thus realized with two floors.
If you want to use a different material, bear in mind that the floors are well placed in stone, like slate or marble and travertine. There are also tiles in stoneware that faithfully reproduce the appearance of all these materials.
For terracotta colored combinations also
The ideal would be to have the tiles kept as a spare. The difference with those cutlery, then worn, it can attenuate with a dry basis of a product suitable acid. It should also be a protective treatment. If the style of the house allows, alternatively you can use the tiles that, in various designs and colors, to match very well cooked.
Unlikely new pieces can be installed following the pattern seen in the background. With a different you will still have a nice design. The union with the existing flooring is easy since the clay tiles are laid with wide joints that allow a cut enough. Or you can use strips of ceramic. Even the wood goes well with cooked.
Decorative effect with the different shades of marble
Should use marble slabs for covering the missing part. It ‘a solution from to be safe, because the characteristic variegated surface makes it stand out less any differences between the new and existing parts. It is an advantage provided by almost all kinds.
Alternatively, you can choose a variety of marble in color contrast with the one already laid. The dividend is greater if the geometry of installation is different. It ‘still need treatment with sealing and polishing to make the floor perfectly homogeneous. It often takes a strip to be placed between the existing coating and the new insert, to unite the different laying patterns. There are marble, wood and brass. The first two are more easily matched to different colors, while the metal is more binding.
Ceramic tiles and wood
E ‘easier to fill the gap using the strips of wood. A frieze solves the problem of join points. The addition of a third material is an alternative to assess. You can think of an insert in stone or porcelain tiles, creating a decorative band on the ground. It ‘also interesting the use of glass, the type-specific tread. It is generally in the surface etched plates with which it pairs well to wood, whether it be of light colored wood species with dark shades, and colored ceramic though.
