Housing Issues Troubling Thais During the Rainy Season, NocNoc Home Solution Offers Services to Resolve All Home Problems

NocNoc reveals insights into housing issues during the rainy season, highlighting three main problems: “Flow, Leak, and Seepage” that need attention, along with prevention techniques for the upcoming rainy season. NocNoc Home Solution is here to help resolve all service-related issues.

Mr. Anupong Tasadwok, Deputy CEO of Betterbee Marketplace Co., Ltd. or NocNoc, the online hub for home products and services, disclosed that data collected from searches and purchases on the platform, as well as consultations regarding housing issues through experts in the NocNoc Home Solution service, indicate that during the rainy season, there is a significant increase in orders for home improvement products or items related to home repairs. Additionally, the NocNoc Home Solution service sees a higher demand for consultations and repair services compared to other times of the year, primarily due to continuous rainfall causing structural issues and significant water-related problems.

“From gathering and analyzing housing issues during the rainy season, we found that the three main problem categories are ‘Flow - Leak - Seepage’. The flow issues often occur during heavy and continuous rain, such as rainwater flowing back into the house, especially in areas lower than the street level or at door thresholds that may lack barriers to prevent water. This can be resolved by raising the house or using barriers to prevent water from entering. Another major issue is rainwater overflowing from gutters. Many homes with gutters may encounter this problem, so it’s essential to regularly check the gutters for leaves or debris that could cause blockages. This can be remedied by installing mesh screens to keep out leaves and small animals.

Leak issues can include roof leaks and cracked tiles, which may arise from using low-quality tiles or from older homes. They can also result from deteriorating sealants. Solutions include replacing tiles with more durable options or consulting with professionals for repairs. Another frequent and potentially life-threatening issue is electrical leaks, which can lead to electric shocks or short circuits, causing significant damage to the home. Regularly checking electrical wires and outlets can help prevent these problems, along with using high-quality circuit breakers.

The final category is seepage issues caused by moisture from rainwater affecting the drying of surfaces and walls, leading to various problems such as moist walls causing paint to peel, which can be addressed by using waterproof paint or applying waterproof materials to the walls. Issues with swollen floors are common in homes primarily made of wood, which can be resolved by applying waterproofing agents or replacing flooring materials with moisture-resistant options. Additionally, there are problems with musty odors and mold that can penetrate deep into the home’s structure, requiring immediate action with dehumidifiers or mold-resistant paints to prevent further spread.
