Leaking Prefabricated Housing Products
Leaking prefabricated housing products mainly include rural assembled concrete prefabricated houses, old prefabricated panel residential communities, and prefabricated panel roofs in early Shanghai residential communities. Here are the specific details:
Rural assembled concrete prefabricated houses: In a dispute case accepted by the Zhoudang Tribunal of Luoshan County People's Court, four cement prefabricated panel houses produced and constructed by a construction company for Mr. Zhang experienced water leakage issues after installation. In addition, the house had other quality problems such as cracking and inconsistent sizes of interior doors. This indicates that in rural areas, some assembled concrete prefabricated houses may experience water leakage due to factors such as manufacturing processes, installation techniques, or material quality, affecting the normal lives of residents.
Old prefabricated panel residential communities: These residential buildings typically have a history of several decades. Due to long-term erosion by the natural environment and aging of the buildings themselves, wall seepage is a common problem. On rainy days, phenomena such as rain streaks, water droplets, peeling wall skins, numerous gaps, deformed floor tiles, and leaking windows may occur inside the houses. These issues not only affect the aesthetics of the residences but may also pose health threats to residents, such as mold growth caused by damp environments.
Prefabricated panel roofs in early Shanghai residential communities: These roofs adopt a prefabricated panel splicing structure, with natural splicing gaps between the panels, resulting in weak structural integrity. After years of exposure to wind and rain, high humidity, cold-heat alternating deformation, and natural building settlement, the original roof base gaps gradually crack, the leveling layer becomes loose and powdery, and the old waterproof layer ages and fails. This leads to persistent leakage problems such as full-area roof seepage, dampness and mold on the interior walls of the top floor, peeling of the ceiling, and water accumulation and leakage in the gutters. These issues are not only difficult to repair but also significantly impact the quality of life of residents.
