Recently, my water tank burst. The water flowed down the drain all through the night. The next day, we called in the plumber. According to the plumber, the dent made on our water tank was very unusual. He thinks that someone had stepped on it.

This brings forth our fear about the security of our roof. Oh, we have alarms and all that but we had to remove one due to constant false alarms. We couldn’t live with a daily false alarm.

Capital Construction explains that the roof is often the weakest point for many of our homes. We grill up our windows and doors and put in contact point alarms etc but there is very little protection for the roof. We have zinc sheets put in by the previous owner but still we don’t feel as secure as when we were living in a condo with concrete above us.

Anyway, we searched around for a way to secure our roofs and found a gadget which we liked. It was a floodlights plus camera that gets turned on by motion. For example if an intruder makes a motion on the roof, the lights will get turned on and at the same time, the vcr will be turned on and the camera will start recording. We thought that that was exactly what we wanted. Too bad they don’t ship here and we can’t find anything of that sort here.

Strange. With the number of burglaries with point of entry being the rooftop, I think that those alarm companies should bring in something more proactive like that. Sigh. Now I have to search for something else. I’m not really interested in a cctv which records 24 hours. I want bright lights and only motion detector recording. Anyone knows of anything like this?

Prose from the pros: Most people don’t care for their home roofs but are careful when fixing garage cabinets. Always bear in mind that protective roofing can save you from a lot of future thefts. All the four siding walls should build as to make it more secure.
