i was surprised that there was water coming from the ceiling and passing through the wall till it get the curtains all wet. so we have to put some thing to catch those water that is dripping from the ceiling and from the curtain. so the wooden floor won't get soaked. so i hope that we can have it repaired as soon as possible so that we would be able to get this solved. i don't like when there was a problem like every time it rains. i enjoy the rain but i don't enjoy the water leaking on my ceiling. it is just uncomfortable.

Oh, I hope the leaks in our home does not leak too. It's also raining hard here. There's this leak somewhere from the extension of our kitchen. My husband he will fix it but I think he totally forget about it. Haha. Anyway, hoping the rain will stop or at least will not rain that much. Or else, water will fall through the falls again.

Yes, I do feel for you. We had those kind of problems before. It is like we are rushing to put pails everywhere where the leaks are coming from the ceiling. We were on the verge of creating a second floor and the area on top has no roof yet. Rains poured and we have no choice but to bear the inconvenience it brought. Good thing now that we don't have leaks anymore. Just one problem that we currently experience is the wet wall in one of our rooms. The direction of the raindrops fall right into the wall which seeps in water and moves it straight inside the room. I hope we can get these inconveniences soon.

No, that definitely is not good. Hopefully, it is only a quick and inexpensive repair that is needed.
I do love rain, but there can definitely be some downsides to it--as you are now unfortuately experiencing.

Leaking through the ceiling is a common problem that we face during monsoon or say heavy rainfall. It may cause extensive damage to the foundation of the building. Scientist had already identified the problem. And developed so many waterproof coating made up of different type of polymers. Procedure that you can follow to solve the problem is specified below :-
