To achieve a dry and wet separation in the bathroom, many people choose to customize and install shower rooms. However, some homeowners may find that their shower room has water seepage issues at the bottom. What are the repair methods for water seepage at the bottom of the shower room?
Repair Methods for Water Seepage at the Bottom of the Shower Room
1. First, we need to check and confirm the source of the water seepage. If the seepage occurs at the shower room's water barrier strip, it is usually because the water barrier strip is not well sealed. We can purchase waterproof sealant, remove the old sealant from the bottom, ensure that the joint is clean and dry, and then apply the sealant on the joint of the water barrier strip to seal it properly.
2. Water seepage at the bottom of the shower room may also be caused by inadequate waterproofing of the floor. We can apply non-destructive waterproof coating on the surface of the tiles, or we might need to lift the floor tiles and redo the waterproofing before re-tiling. When waterproofing, we need to pay attention to the waterproof treatment at the junction of pipes.
How to Choose a Shower Room
1. When selecting a customized shower room, we can determine the shape of the shower room based on the layout and area of the bathroom. For example, a square bathroom can choose a curved shower room, while a rectangular bathroom can select a square shower room.
2. Additionally, we need to check whether the glass product is tempered glass and if the glass has 3C certification. For safety reasons, you may also consider applying a shatterproof film to the glass of the shower room.
3. When choosing a shower room, pay attention to the hardware, frames, etc. We should carefully review whether the aluminum frame color is uniform, if there are impurities on the surface, and whether the craftsmanship of the hardware fittings is exquisite. Make sure it uses high-quality stainless steel with good waterproof and corrosion resistance. We can also slide the shower room door to check if it opens and closes smoothly.
In summary:these are the methods for repairing water seepage at the bottom of the shower room. I hope this information can provide you with some reference and help. For more related information, please continue to follow our website.
