1. The cause of water seepage on the bathroom wall.
Leak-proofing of bathroom walls is crucial, and there are several reasons why water seeps often on walls:
1.The walls are moldy.
Once there is water seepage on the bathroom wall, it will become moldy in the local location for a long time. This is mainly due to the fact that the waterproofing layer is not done well or there are cracks in the wall structure layer itself.
2.The waterproof layer fails.
If the waterproof layer of the bathroom wall is not done well, it will lead to water seepage in the wall once it is damaged. Generally speaking, the height of the waterproof layer of the bathroom wall should not be less than 30cm, but the actual situation is that the bricks are pasted to the wall during the decoration, and there is no water pipe passing under the tiles pasted, resulting in no waterproof construction or waterproofing. Water splashing everywhere in the shower, moisture penetrating through the cracks in the tiles, and cracks in the walls can cause the waterproofing to fail.
3.Leaking drains.
The leakage of the drainage pipe on the bathroom wall is mainly due to the loosening or rust of the water pipe fixing bolts, as well as the floor drain and the drainage pipe of the toilet are not installed properly.
Second, the maintenance method of water seepage on the bathroom wall.
For the cause of water seepage on the bathroom wall, the following maintenance methods can be taken:
1.Moldy treatment of the wall.
After the wall is moldy, it will not only affect the overall appearance of the bathroom, but also affect the user experience. Therefore, it is necessary to deal with the mold in time after the wall is found. When processing, you need to clean the moldy parts with a blade, then wipe the surface with a dry cloth, and finally coat the surface with a layer of waterproof material.
2.Redo waterproofing.
If the waterproofing layer on the bathroom wall has failed or is damaged, it needs to be re-waterproofed. During construction, the original floor tiles and wall tiles need to be removed, the walls and floors should be cleaned, and then the waterproof materials should be painted according to the requirements. After the waterproofing material has dried, re-apply the floor and wall tiles. In the process of re-waterproofing, it is necessary to pay attention to the height and thickness of the waterproofing. In general, the wall waterproofing height of the shower area should be 18 meters or more, and the height of other areas should be more than 30cm. Waterproofing materials can be applied with flexible waterproofing paints or wall solid coatings.
3.Replace drain pipes.
If there is a leak in the drain pipe, the drain pipe needs to be replaced. When replacing the drainage pipe, you need to remove the original water pipe and choose the best water pipe for installation. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the height and direction of the water pipe to ensure that the overall appearance and use function of the toilet are not affected.
In short, there are many reasons for water seepage on the bathroom wall, and it is necessary to take corresponding maintenance methods for specific reasons. It is necessary to pay attention to details during maintenance to ensure the quality of maintenance and the use effect. At the same time, it is also necessary to regularly check the waterproofing of the bathroom wall, find and deal with problems in time, and ensure the normal use and aesthetic effect of the bathroom.
