The rainy season that is coming every day may cause many homeowners to have a headache. Some people know the cause but cannot solve the problem. While some people do not know the cause but fix it temporarily, causing the problem to persist. These problems mentioned above will disappear if we know the problem and how to solve it.

The main problems we often encounter during the rainy season are mostly outside the house, such as the roof, gutters, walls, and floors around the house. Today, we have methods to observe the problem and solutions to recommend.

Preparing the house for the rainy season 1: Check and repair the roof to prevent roof leaks
The roof is a part of the house that often has problems during the rainy season, which can be caused by material deterioration, incorrect and substandard installation, or damage from materials falling on the roof, which may cause roof leaks, which requires urgent inspection and problem solving. Because it may cause damage to other areas of the house, such as electrical work, ceiling work, and built-in furniture, etc. In inspecting and preventing roof leaks, it is recommended to choose a professional directly. Because they will have expertise in solving problems specifically and directly. There is a detailed inspection up to the top of the roof. And currently, drone tools have begun to be used to help. This allows you to find the real cause of the problem and fix it quickly and accurately.

Prepare your home for the rainy season 2: Improve your home to reduce the problem of overflowing gutters
Most problems with overflowing gutters are caused by animals making nests or leaves falling into the gutter, causing the gutter or drain pipe to become clogged. If the house is not very high, the owner can go up and clean it themselves. But if the house is quite high, it is recommended to use the services of a professional technician who is skilled in cleaning the blockage and spraying it to clean. In addition, the homeowner may choose to install additional gutter covers to prevent leaves and debris from falling into the gutter.

Prepare your home for the rainy season 3: Improve your home to reduce the problem of wall leaks and damp walls
The walls of the house or all materials in construction all expand or contract all the time. Especially if it is a wall facing south and west, such expansion and contraction may have a higher chance of cracking than other walls. Even if the crack is only the size of a hair, it can cause the wall to leak and water can seep into the house. It may also cause other problems such as mold on the wall, paint or wallpaper swelling and peeling. The solution to these problems is to repair the cracked area. You can use waterproof chemicals such as PU to fix it or if the crack is large, you may have to cut the wall and repair it with repair cement. In addition, many homeowners may have a problem with damp walls. The cause is often the high amount of water in the soil due to continuous rain, which pushes the moisture up to the wall, causing the paint to swell and peel off. To solve the problem of damp walls and peeling paint, you have to scrape off the paint in the area that has swelled and risen by another 40-50 cm. Then apply a fungicide and algae killer and apply a waterproof sealant.

Prepare your home for the rainy season 4: Improve your home to reduce the problem of house leaks at openings, doors and windows.
This problem is mostly caused by the deterioration of the materials that seal the joints of windows, such as PU, silicone, or the deterioration of the materials around the door or window frames, causing water to leak into the building. The solution is to scrape and replace the old material and seal it again. In general, the life of the chemical is about 3-5 years. However, if the problem is caused by deteriorated rubber edges, it is recommended to notify the technician to measure the size and replace it. You may choose durable materials with joints that are designed to be more tightly closed, such as vinyl doors and windows.

Prepare your home for the rainy season 5: Improve your home to reduce the problem of cavities under the house.
Another common problem for houses during the rainy season is that the soil around the house sinks more. This is due to the force of rainwater that accelerating the fall from the roof, causing the soil to splash. If the owner's house already has a cavity under the house, some soil may flow into the house. The solution is to install gutters to reduce the amount of water that hits and fix the cavity under the house. Closing the cavity under the house can be considered from the rate of soil subsidence around the house. If it continues to subside, it is recommended to temporarily close the cavity with a stone curb. However, if the subsidence slows down to no more than 10 cm per year, a more permanent method can be used by closing the cavity by injecting a material to fill the cavity or using a sheet material to cover the cavity as appropriate for the site assessment. When homeowners understand the principles and methods of home improvement to prepare their homes for the rainy season, they should not be complacent because small problems today may become big problems in the future. Therefore, we should always take care of our homes to make them strong, safe, and reduce problems in living for a long time.
