Claraboya

Overview of Structural Issues

Assessment of the Current Condition

  • The listones (strips) intended for installation were not adhered properly and are made from sandwich material, leading to water damage.
  • The ceiling has collapsed due to inadequate support; movement causes further detachment and damage.
  • There are visible signs of mold and potential water entry points that need addressing to prevent future issues.

Recommendations for Repairs

  • Proper adhesive application is crucial; two types should be used: one for UV protection on the exterior and another that remains moisture-resistant.
  • A thorough cleaning is necessary before proceeding with repairs; the client must decide whether to address current issues or wait until future problems arise.

Cleaning and Maintenance Considerations

Importance of Careful Removal

  • Caution is advised when scraping off mold, as improper removal could lead to additional water ingress.

Update on Clarabolla Repair

  • Adjustments were made to the clarabolla (skylight), which was previously installed incorrectly; now it functions well after modifications.

Final Remarks on Functionality

Confirmation of Successful Repairs

  • The clarabolla opens and closes correctly, indicating successful repair work.
