Leaking Balcony Repairs

TILE RESCUE

Do you suspect that your Balcony is leaking?

Some problems require the attention of a professional. Let Tile Rescue take the stress out of the situation & fix the leaks without removing tiles.

Don’t Ignore a Leaking Balcony!

A leaking balcony can not only be unattractive but can lead to several significant issues, both for the structure of the building and the occupants. Here are some common problems that can occur

Z

Structural Damage

Water Intrusion: Continuous water exposure can weaken the balcony’s structural elements, including the supporting beams and concrete. This can lead to cracks, spalling, and eventual collapse if not addressed.

Rot and Decay: In wooden structures, water infiltration can cause wood rot, leading to decay and loss of structural integrity.

Corrosion of Metal Components: If the balcony has metal reinforcements or connectors, prolonged exposure to water can cause rust and corrosion, compromising the balcony’s stability.

Z

Interior Damage

Ceiling and Wall Damage: Water from a leaking balcony can seep into the ceiling and walls below, causing stains, peeling paint, and drywall damage.

Mould Growth: Moisture from leaks can create an environment conducive to mould growth, which can spread to indoor areas and pose health risks.

Flooring Damage: Water can damage flooring materials such as carpet, hardwood, or laminate in the rooms below the balcony.

Z

Safety Hazards

Slippery Surfaces: A leaking balcony can create slippery surfaces, increasing the risk of falls and injuries.

Electrical Hazards: Water infiltration can reach electrical outlets, wiring, or fixtures, leading to potential short circuits, fires, or electrocution risks.

Z

Aesthetic Issues

Staining and Discoloration: Leaks can cause unsightly stains and discolouration on both the balcony surface and the areas below it.

Peeling Paint and Coatings: Water damage can cause paint and coatings to peel, crack, or bubble, leading to further deterioration.

Z

Increased Repair Costs

Escalating Damage: If a leaking balcony is not addressed promptly, the damage can escalate, leading to more extensive and costly repairs.
Z

Legal and Liability Issues

Building Code Violations: A leaking balcony might not comply with building codes and regulations, leading to potential fines or legal issues.

Tenant Complaints: For rental properties, tenants may file complaints or seek compensation for damages caused by the leak.

Addressing a leaking balcony as soon as possible is crucial to prevent these issues from escalating.

Expert Balcony Leak Prevention

Your local technician will provide a free report and offer the best solutions to stop the leaks and rejuvenate your balcony.

In most cases, we remove all the grout and replace it with a high strength epoxy grout which is 100% non-pervious to water and other liquid. This is followed by an application of flexible polymer seal to the perimeter of the balcony.

Lastly, if your tiles are porous we apply two coats of a premium exterior penetrating sealer leaving the balcony not only leak-free but also rejuvenated making it easier to clean and maintain.

WHAT ARE THE CONSIDERATIONS?
  • RIt is important to ascertain if there are any underlying structural issues before work commences.
  • RIf the substrate is compromised by moisture, it may need to be dried out after the existing grout has been removed and before we install the new grout, depending on the moisture levels and weather.
  • ROutdoor furniture, pot plants and pets will need to be removed from the area.
  • RDue to the time that it takes for the new grout to cure, your balcony will be unavailable for up to 2 days once completed.
  • RIf there are broken tiles that cannot be repaired, then you may need to source a replacement or have a tile that doesn’t match.
What are the benefits of using Tile Rescue?
  • RWe halt the damage!
