Is Cardiac Catheterization Dangerous

09-piece shower tray (process) 05-

In this post I would like clarify why the work shower trays are a great solution, "but have very bad reputation" (

I constantly find clients who want a shower take care of work because it is more attractive than a prefabricated, but always I express concern with the question: Will I loss and moisture over time?.

My years of experience have shown me that the shower does NOT work absolutely no problem in the future, if great care is taken in the placement of the base, ie the PVC material (butyl) with integrated sink (Photo 9_1) . It is all one piece, which I place a whole and with plenty of room (at least 15 cm) that I climb the walls to make the effect "plunge pool" (Photo 9_2) also ensures that there will never be possible loss of water filtration.
Following the placement of this material, prepare the surface properly (Photo 9_3) to put the tile or stone mesh . and is magnificently over ... Custom work a shower (Photo 9_4) .
dishes work, done with quality materials, grouted grouting with special liquids mildew ... are always kept nice and clean.

glass block wall to separate bath room (process approach) 04-Paredes

I would like to continue adding information from my other two post regarding the glass block or glass block, "03- glass block installation in kitchens and bathrooms " and "04- glass block walls or glass block ."

Here I want to show the images of the process followed in the separation of a bedroom and bathroom (suite) in a penthouse in Barcelona.


As it is a bit difficult to understand how these rooms were before and how I finished, this item can combine with explanations that I offer in my website, by clicking on: http://www.refohabit.com/reforma_de_bano_3V04.html , where you can see how the bathroom was and how it was before the reform.

First I had to clean up the stacks of drywall that was on the wall, then build a wall to work with supermaón 4, prepare facilities and water, and finally tiling. To the right was a wall that separated the gallery work in a bathroom in poor condition, which also knocked to expand the space that would be a bathroom. I made a pallet of 16 cm. high for the new location of the drains.
Supermaón placed pieces of 7 in a circle, at a height of 10 cms. above the stage, where he later placed inside the socket in the bathroom. The socket supermaón and I served as the basis for placing the glass blocks circularly. It is preferable to use separators such as "spiders" as the standard separators are not suitable for circular walls, only give a good result in case of straight walls. I placed barillas
threaded (horizontally), diameter 6 in each of the rows of glass block. Finally
special cement grout joints with a rubber, block by block cleaned with a damp cloth, then spent a damp sponge to the board to leave in the fine finish. I did a final cleaning of all glass block.


As for brands and manufacturers of glass block, I normally use blocks from the Italian Vetroarredo ( http://sevesglassblock.com/es/index.php ), the model "Neutral Wavy * Basic "tired and not in all cases combined. Unless my client specifically requests otherwise, always placed buckler translucent or transparent corrugated * . In many cases terminations or other formats using block, depending the ultimate goal and / or layout ( http://sevesglassblock.com/es/clear.html ).

Going From Goldwell To Redken

glass block or glass block stair enclosures

As I have mentioned in my previous article "03-Placing buckler in kitchens and bathrooms " glass blocks glass bricks provide light to the rooms and they are excellent thermal and acoustic insulation. In this article I will present several cases of closures of stairs with glass block pieces and work environments separations.


stairs with glass block enclosures work Meon +
I introduce two reforms where you can see the advantages of placing pieces in glass block walls of stairs.
(Photos 4_1) In this case, the purpose of my clients was to separate the two floors of this duplex, because they were going to the top floor all the heat when wanted to keep it down. In this way we closed the stairs with glass blocks and glass block work to avoid losing heat, thereby saving energy and saving.

usually opt for the glass blocks placed along the parallel of the steps, leaving enough room to work inside to put the pieces of socket, matching material and color to existing rungs (Photo 4_2) .

then, if necessary, you can install the frame to put a door step and thus thermal and acoustic wean the two rooms completely ( Photos 4_3) .

To expand a little more this information, you can always visit the following links to my website, which speak specifically of these reforms with pavé:

Vetroarredo The Italian manufacturer, glass block is the brand you normally use ( http:/ / sevesglassblock.com / en / index.php ), the model "Neutral Wavy * Basic" tired and not in all cases combined. Unless my client specifically requests otherwise, always placed buckler translucent or transparent corrugated * . In many cases, terminations or other formats using block, depending the ultimate goal and / or layout ( http://sevesglassblock.com/es/clear.html ) (Photo 4_4) .

03 Installing glass block-in kitchens and bathrooms

The advantages of glass blocks or glass bricks are made, provide as much breadth, even for a "closure" give light to the rooms. In other cases help give a different touch and now both bathrooms as kitchens. I also want to emphasize that the glass blocks are excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, can combine with a force (Meon) or simply put a few pieces for decoration.

I present an example where you will see clearly the benefits of placing pieces of glass block. This apartment in Barcelona had a long corridor, dark and narrow. The client wanted to give more light and eliminate this feeling of "tunnel" of the aisle. Building on that I had to make a partial reform of housing, my designer Sara, proposed to open the kitchen and also place some pieces of glass block
(Photo 03_0> here I can see it) , this way "receive" the light coming through the kitchen windows into the hallway (photo 03_1) . rounded the corner of the corridor (which was the bathroom) to extend the final optically (Picture 03_2) and also provide all your light to the curve. The overall result was extraordinary.





















Another example of the use you give the glass block or glass block is in bathrooms, the shower area
(Picture 03_3) or even bathtubs. In this case (Picture 03_4) , the client wanted to install a screen, but I had to make and cost as it was very high. I suggested making a glass block wall and thus, get to place a standard screen. The result was very positive and the client was able to save little money, well that was an interesting bathroom, under the circumstances in a room so small.


Where I can look at styles, colors and manufacturers of glass block?
Vetroarredo, Italian manufacturer of glass block, is normally used ( http://sevesglassblock.com/es/index.php ), the model "Neutral Wavy * Basic" tired and not in all cases combined. Unless my client specifically requests otherwise, always placed buckler translucent or transparent corrugated *
. In many cases, terminations or other formats using block, depending on the final goal and / or layout ( http://sevesglassblock.com/es/clear.html ).

Catchy Title For 21st Birthday Party

02-Placing glass mosaic (tile) 01-Change

The glass mosaic (or also called "tile") is a very suitable material for lining baths and toilets, their placement is particularly suitable for shower trays and areas will be in contact usual with water (for this reason is used in both pools).
The tile offers endless combinations of colors and textures, versions gloss, matte or non-skid ... Do not go out of fashion and gives a great result with over the years.

This topic will detail my intention is different things to keep in mind about glass mosaic, give you know the major brands with which I work, and other technical clarifications, liquid finishing and protective tile that will make your stay as the first day.


A. Should I put tile in shower work?
As you could have read in another of my themes ( " Change 01-tub shower tray " or " 09-piece shower tray (process) "), the dish does NOT work absolutely no problem in the future. The surface of the shower tile is very hygienic, especially the glossy or enamel which, although non-slip, having no pore, do not break the dirt and germs. That's telling that the grouting and the grout is always made with quality materials. In my case, the joints prepared with high quality materials by mixing a special anti-aging solution that repels dirt. In my more than 14 years of experience, I have made large number of coatings in tile walls in showers and bathtubs, the results are excellent and requires no maintenance.

B. Where I can look at colors of glass tile manufacturers?
Given my extensive experience working with major brands such as: Reviglass and Togama . In each case there is a variety of colors and shades, gradients, blends and borders, as well as different surface finishes.
If price is a determinant, it is preferable to choose, for example, a glass mosaic within the range DK "Fog of Reviglass (enamel is bright) for example a size 2.5 x 2.5 cm and that is pretty standard and the prices do not soar. This range also "game" because I myself, at the time of placement, I can make a custom mix and pretty simple but (Photo B ).
In specific cases I have also had to resort to placing non-slip tile, such as the model "AntiSlip" of Reviglass (this tile has a rough surface which is extremely safe).


C. What I can put tile measures?
As you have seen in each of the manufacturers' web pages, there are different measures of square tile (1 x 1 cm / 2.5 x 2.5 cm / 3.6 x 3, 6 cm / 5 x 5 cm). All are equal in quality, but remember that the larger measures may increase slightly in price, as well as combinations, gradients, etc.
size 5 x 5 cm glazed, I would not recommend to place on the basis of a shower, and that having more material together separate "breaks" a little non-slip effect offer smaller measures, by contrast is superb in kitchen walls (only in certain areas, preferably away from areas where cooking, above the hob vertical
, etc).

pool tile

It goes without saying that the tile is essential in the resvestimiento inside a pool. To be vitrified and glazed, sunlight does not mistreat the color or the material itself thus ensuring durability and resistance to UV radiation or any external abrasion .
