    To prevent water leakage in the bathroom, we should start from the following aspects:

    Try not to damage the original waterproof layer.

    If the original waterproof layer is not damaged, there will generally be no leakage after moving in. However, the waterproof layer is easy to be damaged when renovating the ground, and if it is accidentally damaged, it should be repaired in time to avoid leaving hidden dangers.

    Resurfacing floor tiles should be done to waterproof the floor.

    If you need to replace the original floor tiles in the bathroom, after chiseling off the original floor tiles, you must first level the ground with cement mortar and then do waterproof treatment. Repeat 2 to 3 times with polyurethane waterproof paint.

    Be sure to do wall waterproofing.

    Water splashes on adjacent walls during bathroom bathing, so be sure to waterproof the walls before laying wall tiles. Generally, the wall should be waterproofed with a height of 30 cm in waterproofing treatment, but for non-load-bearing light walls, the entire wall should be waterproofed, at least meter high. At the same time, pay attention to the waterproofing of the wall adjacent to the shower position should also be meters high.

    The grooves of the water pipes in the wall should also be waterproofed.

    During the construction process, when pipelines and floor drains pass through the floor slab, the waterproof layer around the holes must be carefully constructed. The buried water pipe in the wall should be reasonably arranged, and the water pipe should be made with a groove larger than the pipe diameter, and the plastering in the groove should be smooth, and then the groove should be brushed with polyurethane waterproof coating.

    24-hour "closed water test" acceptance waterproof.

    After the waterproofing project is completed, seal the door and the drain, fill the bathroom floor with water to reach a certain liquid level height, and make a mark, if the liquid level does not drop significantly within 24 hours, especially the roof of the downstairs house does not leak, the waterproof is qualified.

    There are two aspects to consider when specializing in restrooms.

    1. There is no problem in the installation of water supply and drainage (concealed engineering).

    2. The waterproof layer needs to be done without problems.

    If the above two aspects are done well, there will be no leakage.

The reason for the water leakage is that the waterproof layer before the tiling of your bathroom is not in place, or it is not waterproof at all. There is no good solution to the problem, only to remove the bricks, redo the waterproof layer, and then apply the bricks. If you negotiate with them without results, then take the construction contract signed by both of you and sue the other party to the court, and the court will give you a correct answer.
