Rainy season can really be something. You guys jumped right to and figured stuff out. We had to MacGyver stuff too at first, then finally, things seem to stabilize. Suerte!!!

Hope you continue to be mostly leakless and that the concrete helps with the scorpions too!

So sorry about the leaks, it's a problem we all face. Impermeabilizante is the key to the roof, plus some sort of tela (special material) and the impermeabilizante above and below it, and the roof stays really good for a long time. At least here in my house!

Well done you for collecting the rainwater in your cistern, brilliant!

This was informative and interesting! We had issues with leaking that were due to clogged drainpipes on the roof; that + sealant worked. Can I ask how your cistern works and where you got it?
