The best way to deal with a leaky glass roof

The best way to leak water from the glass roof is to cut off the original glass glue and clean it up, and then buy weather-resistant structural adhesive for the exterior wall to re-glue the glass gaps to solve the problem of water leakage.

The best solutions to roof leakage are as follows;

1. Find the developer for maintenance during the warranty period.

If the commercial house you buy is still within the warranty period, then the roof leaks, you can find the developer to repair it for free, the warranty period of the waterproof layer on the roof is 5 years, as long as it is within the warranty period, the developer has the responsibility to repair. However, if the warranty period of the house is approaching, the developer must be urged to deal with it as soon as possible, so as not to delay the house beyond the warranty period by the developer, and eventually have to bear the maintenance costs by themselves.

2. Check the leakage area.

If the house has passed its expiration date, then it is up to the owner to take care of the leakage by themselves. So the first step is to check the leakage in the house first, to see how big the leakage is, if it is a small gap, then you can directly use cement to seal the fine joint, after filling the joint, and then brush a layer of cement ash on it. If the water leakage area is relatively large, then cement may not be suitable, and other methods should be chosen.

3. Asphalt treatment.

Generally, the water leakage is not particularly serious, in addition to cement, asphalt can also be used to deal with it. When operating, it is necessary to remove about 3 cm from the leakage part of the roof, clean it up, and then plug it with asphalt. Generally speaking, this method is relatively simple to construct, and it is not expensive, and it is still possible to choose this method with a small leakage area.

4. We also said that cement and asphalt can only repair the part with small gaps, if the roof leakage is serious, it means that the waterproof layer has been destroyed, and the cement and asphalt have no effect, in this case, the waterproof layer can only be re-done, so as to fundamentally solve the problem. If you find that the waterproofing layer of the roof has cracked or bulged, it means that the waterproofing layer cannot be repaired and needs to be replaced in time. Redo the waterproofing layer.

5. Lay color steel tiles.

The roof leaks, cement and asphalt are only temporarily waterproof, and the cracks may still crack after a long time, so if you want to do it once and for all, you can also lay color steel tiles on the roof. It should be noted that although the waterproof effect of color steel tile is good, the cost is relatively high, and you can choose according to your own situation.

6. Build an awning on the roof of the building.

Building an awning on the roof of a building can not only solve the problem of water leakage, but also build a place to relax, which is also a good solution, but it is also a palliative solution.

The leakage of the tempered glass roof must be because there are gaps in the glue, as long as we deal with it, we can do it ourselves.

Need to prepare tools:Utility knife, glass glue, alcohol

Step 1,Find the leak

Splash water on the roof, and then wipe the top FRP with toilet paper downstairs, ** leakage, the toilet paper will get wet, and it is not difficult to find the leakage point.

Step 2,Use a utility knife to remove the glass glue with leaking spots

Use a utility knife to hang up the glass glue near the leakage point little by little, especially the glass joints must be scraped clean.

Step 3,Use alcohol to clean the glass joints

There will be some dust and impurities at the interface because of rain leakage, wipe it clean with alcohol, so that it can be more firmly sticked.

Step 4,Replenish the glue

Use new glass glue to remedy the holes, remembering not to leave gaps.

If the sun is sufficient, cover it from the roof with an item first, do not be exposed to direct sunlight, and it will be completely dry in 1-2 days. Our glass glue will open in the sun and rain for a long time, as long as it is repaired in time.

The leakage of the tempered glass roof is due to the fact that the glass glue is not laid or the glue is aging at the joint between the glass and the glass.

Scrape off the original glue with a utility knife and rehit the glass glue!

It is useless to make up the glue on the old glass glue, and the new and old glue are not compatible.

Hello friend, tempered glass roof leakage, first of all, you have to see whether the steel glass has defects, if there is no certain place, it may be that the glass glue has been aged for a long time, you can re-play the glass glue, it should not leak.

Look at the sealing strip, whether it is aging, generally water leakage is the reason.

Due to the long-term wind and sun exposure to the glass roof, the glass glue is aging, bulging, shrinking and deforming, and a large area of water leakage will occur in rainy weather. So the question is, do you know what to do if the glass roof leaks? What are the key points of the design of the rooftop glass house?

Don't worry, if you're interested, let me take a look.

If the glass roof is leaking, the first thing to do is to treat the joints of the roof glass. Since the glass of the roof is made of tempered glass, it can be easily seen if it is broken. Even if it is broken, there will be no water leakage, and the water leakage problem of the glass roof of the bridge must be due to the joints.

1. Remove the joints of the roof glass and clean them;

2. The glass at both ends of the seam is pasted with masking paper to prevent contamination of the glass during gluing;

3. Lay the bottom layer of transparent glass glue;

4. Stuff in a foam stick of just the right size;

5. Use a glue gun to beat the weather-resistant glue and scrape it flat with a knife;

6. Tear off the masking paper on the glass, and the whole construction will be completed, so that the problem of roof glass leakage can be quickly solved.

Key points for the design of the rooftop glass house.

1. Paving floor tiles. When the roof of the building is used to plan the garden, the floor tiles do not need to be paved too flat, and it is better to have a little ditch, which is good for retaining water and soil. The floor drain of the roof should be more flat than some planes, so that excess moisture in the soil can be drained from the floor drain.

2. Plant selection. When planting in the glass house on the roof, it should be mainly planted with moisture-loving and heat-loving plants, because the roof has a long sunshine time and good sealing performance.

3. Lockers. Arrange a corner as a storage cabinet, and there must not be too many plants nearby, otherwise it must be treated with moisture.

4. Drainage system. In particular, the area of the pool should not be too large, otherwise it is easy to cause overflow and cause harm to the safety of the building.

Summary: After reading the above introduction, I believe you have a further understanding of what to do if the glass roof leaks and the design points of the glass house on the roof. If you want to know more about it, please continue to ****** the loss slippage, and more exciting content will be presented in the future.

1. First of all, we must find the specific leakage of the glass roof, which can be judged by pouring water on it in sunny weather, and the general leakage location will appear more at the joints between the glass and the wall, between the glass and the glass, and the drainage hole is also easy to leak.

2. If there is a water leakage between the glass and the wall, the original paint on the wall needs to be removed, because the glue used for the connection between the two has lost its effect, not only to remove the paint, but also to remove the glue on it, and to clean the impurities on it. Wait for it to dry before making a connection, you can choose a special waterproof coating for SYR metal roofing to construct, it is best to use it with a sewn polyester cloth, which can well prevent the glass roof from leaking.

3. If the seam between the glass and the glass leaks, because the joint is usually injected into the weather-resistant glue to deal with during installation, and the weather-resistant adhesive is used for a relatively long time, it is easy to cause problems such as aging and cracking due to the influence of wind blowing and sun exposure.

4. If it is caused by the blockage of the drainage hole, it can be solved by hitting the bolt, and adding glue to the inside can be sealed after the plug is inserted.

5. The source of water leakage on the glass roof of the sun room mainly lies in the gaps, and the reasons for the gaps are caused by rain, snow, ice, warm and humid air and other weather. The glass, steel, and aluminum materials are non-absorbent, and the joints will only cause gaps to leak if the material is damaged.

In recent years, the sun room has become popular, and many families will consider transforming the balcony into a sun room when they are carrying out interior decoration, but some owners find that the glass roof is leaking after building a sun room at home, so how should we deal with this situation? Next, I will briefly introduce it to you.

1. According to experts from Qeeka Home, the leakage of the glass roof is mainly caused by the gap between the roof and the glass. Because the roof tempered glass is mostly double-layer hollow tempered glass, it is easy to see if the glass is broken; Even if one layer is broken, there will generally be no water leakage because the glass is double-layered.

2. If the glass roof leaks, you need to clean the joints between the glass and the roof, so as not to affect the sealing effect of the glue; Next, we put masking paper on both sides of the gap to prevent it from sticking to the glass when gluing. In the next step, we first fill it with expanded styrofoam, and then use a glue gun to inject weather-resistant adhesive with good waterproof performance. After scraping it flat with a knife, tear off the masking paper.

3. Many people will build a sun room on the balcony, terrace, courtyard and other places, and many owners will use tempered glass to build the sun room for the roof, although its lighting effect, good permeability, but its thermal insulation performance is relatively poor, we need to do a good job of corresponding preventive measures, such as installing sunshades, pasting glass insulation film, etc.

4. When you build a sun room, you should first consult whether the property in the community can be built and whether you need to go through the relevant approval procedures, so as to avoid the sun room being identified as an illegal construction and forced to be demolished in the future. When you build a sun room, you can't affect the lighting of your neighbors, etc.; If it is affected, it is necessary to remove the obstruction in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations.

Summary: What to do about the leakage of the glass roof, I will briefly introduce it to you here. I hope that after reading this article, I can provide you with reference and help when dealing with glass room leakage in the future. When we build a glass house, it is best to consult the property of the old community first.
