Build and Material Quality on Residential Leak Outside of House
All water leaks require investigation to identify the source of the leak and effective thorough repairs, rather than utilising superficial rectifications which only combat the side effects.
Exterior Building Leaks: CAUSES & PREVENTION
Exterior building leaks can be caused by many factors, however, build quality or material quality has been found to have a greater influence on water leak outside of house rather than that of natural weathering dilapidation, which is more gradual over many years.
Common Residential Exterior Leaks
Roofing water leaks can result when flashings, tiles or any other water proofing is penetrated or broken, allowing rain water to pass through and damage the building below
Atrium water leaks result from broken or problematic seals around glass panelling
Storm drain leaks or floods can result due to blockage from foreign objects, leaves or broken flashings; down pipes can also be blocked or broken
Skylight water leakage can be as a result of broken or worn seals, as well as the flashing surrounds
Façade leaks can allow water leakage in – or warm/cold air out – as a result of dilapidation, as well as substandard fittings
Door leaks, as with façade leaks, can allow water leakage in – or internal warmth or AC chilled air out – when the door jambs or the sill leaks
Window water leaks, as with door leaks, can leak water inwards and also allow interior air outwards
