The rainy season at the end of the year always makes us anxious. Forget going on vacation, just leaving the house often makes us worry if it suddenly rains. The solution, of course, is to stay home more. But what if our house turns out to be prone to leaks and seepage?
A house, which should be a shelter during unpredictable weather, can instead become a source of problems. Leaks and seepage during the rainy season greatly disrupt comfort for rest and activities at home.
Because, leak and seepage problems often come as a surprise when they occur. After a leak and seepage happen, the worry arises that the next case will appear. Once that happens, it's very difficult, isn't it, to rest peacefully at home?
To anticipate this, we need to understand some parts of the house that are prone to leaks and seepage. Because, knowing the root cause of the problem is the first step to a solution.
Ideally, periodic checks should be carried out on these parts before the rainy season arrives. Some of these house parts are:
Gaps in the house roof
The house roof is the most vulnerable part and the first to be exposed to rainwater. It's no wonder that this part is one of the prone points causing leaks in the house. Checking the roof is crucial when trying to prevent leaks and seepage in the house.
If there's even the smallest gap in the house roof, rainwater can get in. To be more certain, coat the roof with a leak-proof coating paint.
Cracks in concrete slabs
Concrete slabs are often used as house roofs or exterior areas directly exposed to weather. Leaks and seepage can also come from cracked concrete slabs. These cracks can result from continuous exposure to sunlight and rain over a long period.
When heavy rain falls and hits the damaged concrete slab, it will enter through the cracks and cause seepage. Avian Brands Friends can fix cracks in concrete slabs with a leak-proof coating for concrete slabs.

Gutters
The gutter is a prone point for leaks because it's the waterway. Gutters that are no longer strong enough to hold flowing rainwater can become damaged and leak.
If there is damage causing gaps in the gutter, it must be immediately repaired using a leak-proof coating.
Wall corners
The corner or joint between walls is another part of the house prone to leaks and seepage. In that part, there could be gaps that allow water to seep into the wall. Wall corners absolutely need to be coated with a leak-proof coating. If not addressed, the wall corners will become damp and moldy.
Bathroom
If Avian Brands Friends' house has a bathroom on the second floor, check its condition. Seepage can occur on the first-floor ceiling from the bathroom area above it. The resulting leak can be fixed by applying a leak-proof coating paint for damp areas like bathrooms.
These are 5 parts of the house that are prone to leaks and seepage. Don't forget that leaks can happen from just one place missed during inspection, Avian Brands Friends. This means the risk of leaks and seepage will always be there.
Therefore, if Avian Brands Friends find any irregularities when checking the house parts above, fix them immediately. The longer leak-prone and seepage-prone areas are left unattended, the worse the problems caused will usually become.
