Which department should I look for if the roof of the building leaks?

If the roof of a building leaks, you should generally call the property department.

The property department is generally entrusted by the developer to contact maintenance affairs. Therefore, when the roof of a building leaks, the property department will be called, and the property department (entrusted by the developer) will contact the construction unit for warranty.

For commercial housing, the warranty period of roof waterproof layer is 5 years, which refers to the day when the owner enters the house to get the key. Therefore, if the top floor of the purchased building leaks during the waterproof shelf life, it is the responsibility of the developer. Developers are obliged to maintain the property free of charge, and must contact the property as soon as possible, asking them to contact the business office immediately to send personnel for maintenance, so as to avoid the developer delaying beyond the shelf life and causing himself to bear the maintenance costs.

How to avoid building roof leakage

1 to ensure the construction quality.

The most important thing to prevent water leakage is to ensure the quality of the building. In the process of construction, we should choose guaranteed building materials and invite professional construction personnel to carry out the construction. In addition, we need to inspect houses regularly in order to find and solve potential problems in time.

2, do a good job of waterproof

Most of the water leakage problems in houses are caused by the lack of effective waterproof measures. Therefore, we need to waterproof the roof, walls and floors of houses. We can use waterproof paint or waterproof film to improve the waterproof performance of these parts.

3. Install drainage system

During the rainy season, rain may accumulate on the roof or ground of the house. If there is no effective drainage system, rainwater will enter the house and cause water leakage. Therefore, we need to install drainage system on the roof and ground of the house in order to discharge rainwater in time.
