Many residents have reported serious water leakage. What should be paid attention to to avoid future problems?

In September this year, typhoons were prevalent, and many residents found water seeping out of the living room ceiling, causing large pieces of putty powder to gradually fall off. Many residents angrily said, "When the wall skin fell off, it happened to fall on the child's desk. If it hit the child, the problem would be very big. We didn't buy this house to live like a water curtain hole
Roof waterproofing engineering, as an important component of protecting homes, may be affected by natural disasters, but the construction quality and later maintenance must be guaranteed, and the key details determine the long-term durability of the project. This article will introduce the key points that need special attention in roof waterproofing engineering to help users identify and improve construction.
1. Material selection:
Use high-quality waterproof materials, such as well-known waterproof rolls, roof coatings, and sealants, to ensure the durability of the roof surface.
2. Roof cleaning and preparation: Before construction, it is necessary to ensure that the roof surface is clean, smooth, and free of debris. Any dust, debris, or old waterproof materials should be cleaned thoroughly.
3. Leak filling and sealing:
Check and repair any existing water leakage points to ensure the sealing of the roof surface. Pay special attention to the areas around skylights, ventilation openings, and chimneys.
4. Front end and side edge processing:
The front and side edges of the roof need special treatment to ensure that water does not seep under the roof. Use waterproof materials and special waterproof layers to reinforce these areas.
5. Drainage system:
Ensure that the drainage system on the roof (such as gutters and pipes) is unobstructed to effectively direct rainwater to the drainage outlet.
6. Cross seam and detail treatment:
Handle cross joints and special details on the roof, such as around ventilation openings, chimneys, and skylights, to ensure that these areas do not become potential leakage points.
7. Construction quality control:
Supervise the progress of the project to ensure that the construction complies with the established waterproofing plan and standards. Check the details of the roof to ensure there are no omissions.
8. Number of waterproof layers:
Select an appropriate number of waterproof layers based on the type and requirements of the roof to provide additional protection and durability.
9. Regular inspection and maintenance:
Regularly inspect the condition of the roof and perform regular maintenance to ensure the effectiveness of the roof waterproofing layer.
