Describe Issues

As seen with IR image, moisture seepage noted from AC gas pipe insertion area as gas pipe has been pulled from external wall without any pipe sleeve. As Sleeves not provided at wall surface for running AC gas pipes, there are unfilled gaps on external surface around AC drain pipe. Due to this, moisture is seeping inside the house.

Describe Issues

Existence of plants or vegetation, such as fast growing trees in external wall or other parts of the building or structure can cause cracks in walls due to expansive action of roots growing. The plants begin to grow in opening or fissures of walls, and If these are not removed well in time, it develops wall cracks in houses. This can cause damage to the structure and moisture intrusion which lead to dampness/ seepage related problems.

Describe Issues
