After living in a normal tiled house for a long time, it often encounters water leakage in rainy days, which is particularly annoying.
The reason for this problem is mainly due to the fact that the roof tiles we used to build houses in the early years were mostly traditional clay tiles or cement tiles. The cost of this kind of roof tile is relatively low, and the quality is relatively average, so it can only play a basic role of sheltering from wind and rain. However, as the service life increases, problems such as cracking and water leakage of the roof tiles gradually appear.
So how to solve the situation of roof leakage? There are mainly 3 methods:
The first one is the way we can easily think of. Usually, the roof tile cracks on the roof do not appear in a large area, usually the corners of the roof. For this kind of partial cracking of the roof tiles, we can directly lay waterproof materials on the areas that are prone to water leakages, such as waterproof membranes and paints. The advantage of this method is that it is relatively simple and trouble-free, and does not need to consume too much manpower and material resources. However, the disadvantages are also obvious. Every leak must be repaired, and it is necessary to be mentally prepared to fight a "protracted war".
The second one is to lay a layer of planks directly under the roof tiles. The benefits of this method are also obvious. There is an extra protective layer on the roof, even if the roof tiles leak, it will not directly drip into the room below. If it is more secure, you can continue to use marl on the surface of the plank to make a waterproof layer. This method is relatively more troublesome than the previous one, but there will not be too many times water leakage problems in the short term.
The above two methods are usually palliatives, not the root cause, and the third method can radically solve the problem of tile leakage, that is, to renovate and replace the old roof tiles on the roof, and choose better quality and use more Long-lasting roof tiles are even more important.
At present, there are mainly two types of roof materials on the market, one is traditional clay tiles or cement tiles, and other is new roof tiles represented by stone coated roof tiles. The advantages and disadvantages of traditional tiles are easy to age and break. It is obviously not a long-term solution if you decide to renovate and choose such roof tiles.
The new roof tiles such as colored stone coated roof tiles are made of galvanized steel plate, which can be recycled after dismantling without considering the problem of aging and fragmentation; secondly, the surface is covered with a layer of colored stone, which is beautiful and rainwater Noise effect; Another highlight is that the weight is only 1/6 of the traditional tile, and the labor cost for installation is also lower. Comprehensive consideration is the current roof tile with very high cost performance.
In the building materials industry for so many years, how to solve the leakage of the old roof is also one of the most frequently asked questions by customers and friends. How to solve the problem of water leakage also provides a reference for everyone. Finally, considering the period of house use and the comfort of living, it is recommended that you choose the third method that can cure the problem, solve the problem from the root, and save yourself and your family.
