I have a problem for the past 2 years, which I have yet to rectify. I have water seepage problem on my wall, and according to my plumber, it is coming from my neighbour upstairs. He said there is no need to remove any tiles or do any major repair works. He assured me that he can solve the problem by simply pumping certain liquid into the wall. I hope it can solve the problem. He is asking RM450 for the repair. Is this a reasonable price to pay?

Pump what ? Ask him to use his d..ck to pump lah.

Water leakage is a headache problem. Have to fix the source ,as water will always find a way to get to you no matter how you block it.

Don't know what pump. A kind of liquid that can stop the leakage. Not sure how it works etc. But he guarantees that the problem will be solved- of course his guarantee has no value.

use his D...ck to pump this


but u r right, must cure the source.

i just fixed a swimming pool leaking using this resin injection, just hope it can last until defect liability period

You need to know what materials he is going to pump into the wall. For all you know it could be radioactive and you end up glowing in the dark

Pool in the ground is okay as any minor leakage is acceptable, nobody will notice. Also,if the ground water table is low, it will not have much pressure to squeeze into any minor defects.

Whereas for our bro problem, gravity is always there. Water will find you no matter what you pump.

Water can only goes down, never up lah.

bro,that is elevated pool @ 1st floor with glass panel at the bottom lar

look at the 2nd pic

That's not a pool lah bro. Just a small pond. I thought that was a skylight on other project you are on.

But again, your case it might hold as you are creating a leakage proof wall , just like an aquarium.

Dats da problem with poor workmanship when installing the pipes. To be honest, in my opinion, any solvent, silicon or wateva so called waterproofing is just temporary. Best is still to rectify the piping concealed in the wall.

I suspect it is not even piping. It is caused by re-tiling of neighbour's toilet floor 2 years ago.

it's either poor piping or poor tiling.

No injection will fix that.

Tiling den god bless lo. Waterproofing is best done when doing concreting of slab. Anything else after that would not be as effective. Final solution, repaint the portion and sell off the house.

have you talk to next door, and help to resolve together ?

i am having the same problem from my neighbour upstairs now ... the slab in his toilet all wet and he is renting to foreign workers where the toilet is overused! ... I spoke to him over the phone once and he seemed enthusiastic enough to resolve the matter but have recently not been replying my smses ...

The contractor came over the weekend. My mistake. He did not inject anything. He scrapped off the wet paint, and applied a layer of cement-like mix onto the surface. I don't know what exactly that mix is, but according to a fellow forumer here, it is cementitious waterproofing. So far so good... Fingers crossed, I hope this will solve my problem. RM350 after negotiation.

Just hope and pray that it work for you after paying with your hard earned RM350.
If the water leakage is really from your neighbour, then the cementitious water proof membrane should be applied at the source and not on your side...

friend, that only can last temporary to show you no more leaking.
for the injecting you mentioned earlier, they just inject some liquid in your wall, but it does not means you already stop the water leak, the liquid just to stop the water come out from this wall. means water is finding another place to flow out.

yup. need to stop the water leakage from the source. Else the water will find another "route" .... so the leakage starts again from another location...
