Causes Behind Your Leaky Balcony
Ever pondered why your balcony is prone to leaks? In Canberra, your balcony encounters distinctive challenges that contribute to water seepage. Our solutions are ingeniously crafted, keeping the unique challenges of our city in sharp focus.
1 – Wet Climate of ACT
ACT’s climate is renowned for its extremes, subjecting your balcony to the harshest conditions. The relentless exposure to Australia’s challenging weather makes it highly vulnerable to water seepage. To combat this, your balcony requires not just efficient drainage but also robust protection against the elements.
2 – Building Movements
Every structure has its rhythm, expanding and contracting as it settles and responds to local weather patterns. This constant movement can lead to cracks in tiles and grout lines, creating vulnerable points. When rainwater infiltrates these gaps, it not only triggers leaks but also fosters mould growth, further compromising the structural integrity.
