What are decorative profiles?

A decorative profile is an element used to finish off, protect and embellish surfaces when a renovation is undertaken. They are manufactured in different materials, materializing different finishes and styles to satisfy all needs.

Types of decorative profiles

There are different types of profiles depending on the uses for which they need to be integrated into the decoration. Take note:

  • Angle profiles. They are used to protect and embellish the corners of walls, steps and all types of trims that end in a protruding edge.
  • Transition profiles. Used to join different types of flooring, such as ceramic, parquet or tiles in different rooms that are joined at one point.
  • Edging profiles. Ideal for achieving a clean and professional finish on the edges of tiles, both outdoors and indoors.
  • Expansion profiles. They help to absorb expansion and contraction movements in large surfaces.

Materials

The materials used to manufacture the decorative profiles depend on the results to be achieved. The most common are:

  • Aluminum. Offers durability and a modern look.
  • Stainless steel. The finish is similar to the previous one, but it is indicated for humid areas such as kitchens and bathrooms, due to its resistance to corrosion.
  • Wood. It gives warmth and naturalness to the spaces.
  • PVC. Easy to install, perfect for DIY projects.
  • New synthetic materials. There are decorative profiles with innovative materials such as Astra® from Emac®, with all the advantages of the previous materials.

Advantages of using decorative profiles in renovations and decoration

Decorative profiles have several interesting advantages that make them a resource to keep in mind when planning a renovation.

Improved aesthetics

Using decorative profiles helps to enhance the appearance of any space in a simple and very effective way. They can be used to create decorative lines, separate different materials or to incorporate an aesthetically appealing detail into the décor. Whether the style is modern, classic or rustic, the right profile adds a touch of personality that fits perfectly with every project.

Protection and durability

In addition to its aesthetic function, a decorative profile protects surfaces from damage and wear. This is especially useful in high-traffic areas such as corridors and stairways.

By protecting edges and corners from bumps and scratches, we prevent premature deterioration of surfaces, extending their useful life and keeping them in perfect condition for longer. This implies much more than just maintaining the aesthetics, as it means significant savings in the medium and long term by not having to invest money in replacing elements worn out by use.

Ease of installation

The installation of decorative profiles is quick and easy, which makes them an excellent alternative for renovation and do-it-yourself projects.

At ParaTuReforma you will discover profiles that adapt to different needs and skill levels. Many of them are designed to be installed without the use of special tools, which makes the task easier even if you do not have much experience doing renovations.

Versatility

Decorative profiles are highly versatile, and can be used for a wide variety of applications. From corner protection on plasterboard walls, to transitions between kitchen and dining room, to offices and bathrooms, these elements can transform any space, providing both aesthetic and functional solutions.

How to choose the right decorative profiles for your renovation

When choosing decorative profiles, it is essential to consider the style and colors in the space. For example, for a modern design, aluminum profiles with a metallic finish can be a great choice.

Wooden profiles, on the other hand, can be the perfect complement for a more rustic or traditional style.

Functionality is also a determining factor. For areas with a high degree of humidity, such as kitchens, bathrooms or swimming pools, PVC or stainless steel are ideal because of their high corrosion resistance. In areas with a lot of movement, an aluminum or steel profile provides additional protection.

Another detail to take into account is the type of reform to be carried out. For a complete work, such as changing the steps of a mezzanine or tiling a bathroom wall with corners, different profiles will be used to cover a skirting board or a corner that you want to protect.

In ParaTuReforma you have a wide range of decorative profiles to suit any requirement and budget. If you have any doubts about which is the best for your project, contact us and we will help you find the ideal element.
