i would like to know, does your leakage area near or due to the reno?..if due to reno then that your contractor do not do it properly. If not, then it mean that leakage is nothing to do with reno, then there are possible causes:
1. Roof tile crack (this condition if eg any one had gone up to the roof that cause the roof tile crack, roof tile is very sensitif, do not let anybody gone to the roof if he do not have knowledge especially where to pijak on the roof. If not then this is due to 2nd reason below:
2. cement rabung crack. Normally and it is very normal that after years, the cement rabung will crack (this condition happend if the contractor had not properly do it, read my thread about rabung cement). Solution, use the waterproofing compound PYE brand (i use this brand) as in the photo i posted.
it very helpfull if you could post your roof photo.
gd luck bro
Yoyo, thanks for your advice.
Just for your information, the leakage side is new roof area, not old roof area. My house is double storey, i only extend kitchen and car porch. Which means the kitchen and car porch only extend on ground floor. That day i saw both kitchen and car porch roof has leakage, i have told my contractor, but he told me the leakage is not because of tiles problem, is because of 2nd floor roof side do not have gutters, and causing the rain drop into ground floor roof, and somehow cause leakage.
Is it possible? Because i saw a lot of double storey house 2nd floor roof do not install gutters.
And normally install gutters for 2nd floor roof will cause how much (house 18 x60)? Just gv a figure, thanks.
