The regular pitter-patter of rain is certainly calming. The first tentative drops of rain, barely more than a mist, grow bolder and drums a steady rhythm on rooftops and window panes. This calmness during the rainy season brings the comfort of hot tea and snacks. Yet, the relentless humidity also invades our homes, bringing with it the constant worry of water buildup and leaks. But don't let these concerns overshadow the tranquility of the rain-kissed season. With a bit of foresight and preparation, you can transform your home into a haven against the storm. By embracing some smart and simple home care tips, you can master the art of rainproofing your sanctuary. Stay safe from rain with these items from Wilcon Depot.


1. Clear your gutters

Unresolved issues throughout the rainy season might cause additional woes to your home. P.Tech’s gutter system is designed to drain rainfall away from your home while remaining durable and efficient. P.Tech is also known for the quality of its products, the gutter system stands vigil over moisture-sensitive areas like exterior and overhead doors, shielding them from the ravages of water damage.


2. Reassess your roof

Early detection of issues such as leaks, damaged shingles, and clogged gutters can avert water infiltration that leads to structural deterioration, mold growth, and interior damage. So, if your roof is not up to par, there are quick fixes for a leaking roof. You can place a bucket in the attic to catch drips, or tuck sheet metal under a loose shingle to cover a hole.


For larger areas, cover the leaking section with heavy-duty plastic secured with two-by-fours. If simple DIYS aren’t good enough, replace your roof with a P. Tech roof sheet. It is made with ASA (acrylonitrile styrene acrylate) filament which is suitable for many different applications. P.Tech ASA Roof also exhibits greater flexibility and higher hardness compared to ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) for better weather resistance. It has a guaranteed shelf life of 20 years.. Regular roof inspections and maintenance not only safeguard the home but also enhance the longevity of the roofing system.

Tech Bentley Canopy is made from durable materials and sleek design providing effective protection from sun and rain. The canopy's easy installation and low maintenance make it a practical solution for keeping your doorway cool and sheltered while maintaining a modern aesthetic.


4. Upgrade some home fixtures

The rainy season is a perfect time to upgrade a few essential home fixtures. Starting with the Ariston Aures Multipoint Water Heater, this smart device ensures you have a constant supply of hot water with its instant heating technology and energy-efficient design, even on the coldest days.

Lastly, for the kitchen, opt for safer water for household use with the innovative Solutherm Triple Stages Filtration System. It comprises a multi-layer filtration process that removes impurities, enhances water taste, and promises pure, clean water throughout your home.


5. Go for comfy spaces.
