A house is a significant asset that involves a huge investment. Old or new, a house is a cherished dream for all home buyers and proactive measures need to be taken towards mitigating all kind of risks. Water leakage or water seepage is one of the major causes of structural defects in buildings. It results in dampness, fungal growth and metal corrosion.

Since the early days on, human beings have been looking for shelter to seek safety from elements of nature. First, we built huts and mud houses and now we have moved to concrete structures and high rises. But the risks that nature poses still remains high. Even with technological and architectural advances, water damage still remains a major concern.
