Prepare home in the rainy season a lot of things to do. What are the tips to stay safe and comfortable home in the rainy season? Prepare to face the rainy season begins Hars establish the concept of home.
Like the proverbial rainy day ready, prepared or roof "umbrella" before the rainy season arrives. See if there are tiles that are needed to be replaced or dropped.
For this type of concrete roofs, asbestos, or shingles, look at the possibility of cracks. If there give gauze and waterproof. For large cracks should be fixed again.
Ideally examination performed 2-3 months because cracks are very small and do not directly cause leaks. Only after 2-3 times the new rains cause leaks. For horses / roof frame made of wood it will cause brittle.
On the roof area also need extra attention because they will often stucco on the leak. The principle is the earlier fixed the cheaper the cost. Ceiling due to moisture-induced seepage leaks will collapse over time, this will increase the cost of repairs.
We recommend that in the beginning of the manufacture of roof coatings use aluminum foil as between ceiling and roof. In addition to working to reduce heat absorption can also avoid the event of a roof leak seeped due to small gaps / cracks in the tile. The water does not drip into the ceiling but down to listplank.
Pay attention to the angle of elevation / tilt roof to form a resistance to rain. For example, ceramic tile roof requires the slope equal to or greater than 30 degrees, while asbestos equal to or greater than 15 degrees. If not heeded rain water can still get in through the roof.
Especially for asbestos roof, asbestos mounting bolt or nail often deficient at the time of execution of the roofing. The holes are too big to asbestos due to the installation of asbestos spikes will cause leakage. To fix can be used ter / asphalt that can be found in the hardware store.
For the tropics, the most suitable material for the roof covering is ceramic tile that has more clay face the changing nature of the weather and temperature.
