Good job Canaan! Ah Wai is very knowledgeable and technical. Your videos provide a lots of practical information and realistically present normal life in UK. We have similar roof structure in Canada with some differences in materials used, for majority of house structure it's wood frame instead of brick wall. Also, Instead of felt, we use a layer of waterproof membrane on pile wood under the roof tiles. Thank you again.
Canaan and family don’t worry makes sure your loft is not big leaks because now weather is very cold,ifs you put your heating up the water will be come running round up water pipes hopefully your husband can do something moment to stop it until you get sorted out god bless you and family
I had the same problem in my loft one month ago. I top up the insulation and insult the hatch door as well to ensure no warm air get into the loft, especially from the bathroom. Apart from Dehumidifier, blower surprising work well to dry up the whole area
@@Dancerc I see that you have a cushion on your door, I put some insulation foam 4-5inch thick,just barely close the door with no gap. Cannot put photo here, otherwise I send you what I did.
Yeah, initially thought it was leaking, thankfully it's only condensation☺️. Still a little tricky, if the mould continues, it will rot the time structure
My house- Edinburgh (1958) ,have very good ventilation and no moss. However, the gutter maybe too old and got little wet in our room ceiling when it is heavy raining. We paid $2000 pounds to a guy to fix it (last Dec). However, he made our window scratch and still have some water leaks (little) in our room at the moment. We approached him again but have no response. Very bad guy we met in Scotland.
I think u need a roof vents . 住house是好麻煩的.我好多年之前condensation problem in my loft. 要放兩個。英國天氣凍多。熱空氣上升加開暖氣。loft最怕有漏水現象和米奇。好多英國屋有。take it easy. No worry. 😊.
Is it possible to install dehumidifier at wet season to fix the problem ? Also, spraying expanding foam and laying carpet etc. to raise the dew point ?
Hi your roofing felt looks in very good condition but its the old type non breathable thats why you have problems, but you are doing a great job to solve them, you can get vent tiles put into your roof 👍
Been thinking about that. I'm a little skeptical with the window letting train water through. It's a roof light after all. I started opening the window during the day on some days, it is helping.
This isn't so straight forward, it depends on the level below. Hard to answer. Our house for example, we would lose the third bedroom if we wanted to get a compliant stair case into the loft.
Thank you for your support! 1. If it is s lift conversion, it needs to be built to building regulations. It will be no different to the level below. It wouldn't have these issues. 2. Almost all houses will have a loft. It's very common. 3. In a new build, the lift will have the bare minimum to comply with building regulations. It will have structure to support the ceiling below. Adequate insulation (280mm) and no boarding. You can add boarding similar to my loft. If you want it to be a room, you need to check with the developers as they might not be built to support another floor. The foundation might not be enough.

剛剛正想問,發現大部分英國嘅屋,Bathroom 都唔多見有「抽氣扇」Exhaust Fan。 係咪因為天氣太凍唔會裝?BTW, 上次 呢個channel 嘅Q&A 都有人問及 「浴室寶」,呢個正正就係抽氣加暖風機嘅Hybrid 混合產物。(不過個人認為抽風效果麻麻,要暖的話,英國屋廁所都有Radiator. 所以應該用不著。
@@Calvin_Yip totally agree with the radiator. We don't have a fan on the bathroom, we just open the window after shower and turn on dehumidifier of needed. It works just fine for now.
我以前在香港一間極高級的酒店做工程師直接到退休.這種情形長長發生在樓底和假天花之間.最便宜的方法是装把風扇24小時運作.如有可能有少少空隙位比空氣circulation.當然亦可裝dehumidifier但要考慮電費及drain pipe.這是我們一直以來都是這樣做的亦非常有効.可以試試
@@lklau956 華宗,你好!我都係退休酒店人員,相信exhaust pipe duct是一個問題,英國detached跟美國排屋相似,大多是黑廁,有幸是天氣比香港乾燥。

在牆身對開鑚兩組小孔(電線吼)作對流,但鑚咀要斜斜哋向下鑽,鑚完後再插入2.5mm膠喉便可防咀雨水入屋,但在屋内膠喉咀加小網而防阻小動物從膠喉入屋
概念上,全對。現實上,孔洞的總面積,依然太小,通風量不會足夠。(閣樓的天窗,可以利用來通風,散水氣)
很實用的資料,以及好多你詳細解釋那些詞滙令我們更容易明白,真的非常感謝你們的分享😊

有一個乜都識整嘅老公,真令人羨慕! 😚
既然有個天窗,可加個有細綱的 ROOF 通風 "口” 就得啦。 風由屋頂邊入,再由新加通風口出。屋頂便保持乾爽,不會有 霉. GOOD. LUCK

你提供資訊非常之有用,好多謝你,雖然有啲專有名詞都唔係好明,但係都有個概念👍👍👍
用心分享,實際又實用,辛苦晒你地👍🏻👍🏻
我間屋做了loft conversation, 就因為屋頂太短,最後要把二樓ceiling lowered來增加高度,比較大工程。而且加多了一間房,全屋要再inspect, 要合乎消防規定。原本要求地下已經打通了的廳,要間返一邊wall. 好彩後來building regulation 容許只要有fire door 和夠smoke alarm 都ok。同埋好depends 原本landing有冇位加stairs.
其實我都想問council bylaws 有無limitations

Good and wide view of your house even the weather is not sunny day. great move.
好正,條片好有用,又有多角度,節奏都好好,加油。
不記得在甚麼地方看過一些人的閣樓,裡面塞滿了吸水棉,活像一個堆填區,說是因為屋頂漏水。現在看見你家的閣樓,對比起來真是非常整潔。
ohh that does sound quite scary. Hopefully they have solved the problem. Otherwise, it would only lead to more serious problems.
@@Dancerc Before watching your video, I thought all lofts in the UK looked like that one, which is quite disgusting.
Canaan 睇完片之後立刻上Loft ,望到嚇了一跳,情況就如你們一樣,要用漂白水去清理,好多謝你的 video 提醒了我們,我同你們一樣希望這個夏天可以將Loft 的通風系統攪一些
Glad it helped!!
好欣賞你們,多分享及講解住屋,租樓問題。清楚明白house閣樓結構。
@Wai Yin Sammy Lau, 應該唔會,我係英國差不多二十年,四年前搬到德國o 系英國未起過樓但現住梗間屋就係2 0年6月搬入,間屋壳系1 9年十二月份起的。十二月系我個地區多雨、多雪,而且好凍。建築商會等個壳乾返再進行下一步工程。註:我系英國時但嗰間樓系1902年起的,如懂一般舊樓保養,我就喜歡舊樓。
Thanks for your sharing!
我終於明白,為何 loft 有個天窗。散水氣用的。
我屋企對住部冷氣道牆都係發左霉,黑色一達達,我就用濃多少少漂白水大力抹,再用風筒吹乾,而家幾年都無問題啦!
讚成Bleach漂白水去霉菌係好過醋
係用 1:49漂白水呀,重要用乾既紙清潔

呢個唔叫loft leaking, loft leaking 大獲好多. condensation間間英國house都有.除非長期開窗或長期開抽濕先可以解決.
Yeah, initially thought it was leaking, thankfully it's only condensation☺️. Still a little tricky, if the mould continues, it will rot the time structure

可以加番隔熱板 for insulation
I thought UK is all brick house. The humidity is not so good for wood house especially if termites exist.
The walls are brick. The roof is wood and tiles.
Thank you for your information. May I know how frequently you check your roof condition?
Now days, every week😆😅
果然係香港人, 紅白藍, 好親切 🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍
曬燈會快啲乾
做咗 consulate, 然後封板, 咁應該就冇問題㗎喇,我在紐約應該比你嗰度冷,但我的閣樓冇漏水
Is it possible to install dehumidifier at wet season to fix the problem ? Also, spraying expanding foam and laying carpet etc. to raise the dew point ?
Smart ideas! Personally don't like expanding foam insulation, it's hard to main the roof after that. The dehumidifier is in the loft right now😅
可唔可以用抽濕機, 解決這情況
英國咁潮濕,如果通風後會唔會整個閣樓都好潮濕呀?
好鍾意神秘魔法閣樓啊! 夜晚睇唔睇到星星㗎? 🤩
Yes, the view from the lift is amazing!!
幸福家庭👍👍多謝分享!
整個抽氣系統咪得
香港天氣潮濕,春天要常開抽濕機防止室內牆壁發霉;唔知你哋屋頂可唔可以抽吓濕呢?
多謝講解,豐富了我的知識
倒汗水啫,唔算漏水
睇標題以為爛屋頂咁大鑊
一係將閣樓溫差拉返接近d
一係整兩部抽濕機狂吸濕
Yeah, at first we thought it was leaking. Touch wood it doesn't leak!
@@Dancerc 咁似乎過嚟買間new bulid 會煩少dd 野🤡起碼有返五年十年保養
Why not just get a ladder and replace a few tiles with vents. Just takes 5 min per vent if done by a roofer.
Thank you, I think I need to get some quotes! Sounds straight forward.
喂!! 你唔好係下面低炒先啦 !! 哈哈好正 !!
😂😂
Hi your roofing felt looks in very good condition but its the old type non breathable thats why you have problems, but you are doing a great job to solve them, you can get vent tiles put into your roof 👍
Thank you for your comment and advice! Trying out best to keep it under control. Opening the roof light during the day..😅🤪
裝個浴室寶就解決濕氣問題😎
多謝亞偉,好專業分析,資料好實用👍👍
Does the ppl use dehumidifier in London ? Most family in HK do. Of coz the flats are smaller.....
Yes!
間中開半小時窗通風都好
Trying that now. I hope it rains less!!
加 insulation 便可以了
請問你把夏天衫放袋在這濕環境,下一年拿出來不怕有味或其他問題嗎?重新再洗一次?我諗起都身痕!我英國房間衣櫃牆發霉(懷疑外牆滲水),所有衣服都放膠箱,怕明年拿出來嚇親。
We have been talking about buying some boxes to seal the clothes inside. We need to do that!

You have a window, can you open a small gap enough for some air through. Some windows you can still lock it, but leave a small gap opened.
Been thinking about that. I'm a little skeptical with the window letting train water through. It's a roof light after all. I started opening the window during the day on some days, it is helping.
Yes, i saw that window and should be use that small gap open.

放部抽濕機係上面抽
Yes we have been doing that since then haha
亞偉好叻呀!要住house 真係唔容易😅
You know need basic knowledge. Just get a dehumidifier and you will be fine with most things!
May be set up a dehumidifier temporarily to remove the excessive moisture at Loft?
It's up there now😁😁
Need heat up the ambient temperature at the loft for a better result, dehumidifier won’t work if below 10C
Loft convertion資訊好有用呢,想問下咁條樓梯上loft要咩條件要幾多空間先夠?
This isn't so straight forward, it depends on the level below. Hard to answer. Our house for example, we would lose the third bedroom if we wanted to get a compliant stair case into the loft.

請問放抽濕機會解決問題?
唔知改成metal roof 會唔會違法呢? 理論上metal roof 更耐用
It needs to match local context so unlikely to be accepted for planning. Not for a house anyways.
關於閣樓通風,請問用air brick / brick wall vent 有冇效?
Yes, they will work! Just need to have enough.
通常呢啲木條係咪唔會加 coating? 加咗咪耐用啲囉?
It's been treated already, that's why it hasn't rotted yet. Fingers crossed it last many more years to come...
多謝分享,如果起屋最后過程大雨加凍,日後會唔會有好多問題?
No, once it dries, it's ok. It rains too often in the UK... Lol

Hi Canaan & 阿偉,你哋真好,願意開放自己屋企嘅閣樓比大家睇 😘 終於有機會見到屋仔嘅閣樓係點喇 😄 我有啲問題想請教下,希望你哋可以幫忙解答 🙏
(1) 閣樓會容易潮濕及發霉,改建為房間比人住,這樣對人體健康有影響嗎? 當有需要維修補漏時,又有床及傢俬,咁咪好麻煩?
(2) 全新屋仔係咪每間都會有閣樓呢?
(3) 全新屋仔嘅閣樓,發展商係咪已經 ~ 做好閣樓地面嘅木樑? 鋪好保溫棉? 鋪好木板蓋住保溫棉 ( 好似你哋嘅閣樓咁樣 )? 發展商會確定能夠承托到人及物件?
