A home owner can utilise a variety of investigative procedures to narrow down the source of a water leak; this is important so as to eliminate unnecessary repairs:
– Sweep and vacuum the surface and clean thoroughly – Insect the balcony surface carefully looking for signs of cracking in the surface or grout lines – Check grout lines for signs of calcification – Check tiles/surface for signs of lifting – Check all drainage outlets are clear of blockages – Inspect all cracks in surfaces and ensure no plants/moss are growing through – Identify if leak is causing any water damage to plaster/paint
If you recognize these issues as being present, there is a chance your balcony or terrace is leaking.
