Moisture & Leak Detection FAQS
Hidden moisture can slowly damage your property long before it becomes visible. Undetected leaks lead to structural issues, mold growth, and costly repairs if left unchecked. Below are clear answers to common questions about moisture and leak detection—so you can act early and protect your home or business.
Why is leak detection important?
Hidden leaks slowly damage structure, insulation, and finishes. Early detection prevents mold, wood rot, and health hazards before they spread.
How do professionals find hidden leaks?
They use thermal imaging cameras, moisture meters, infrared scanners, and leak detection sensors to pinpoint water behind walls, under floors, and in ceilings.
Does detection require damaging walls or floors?
Not necessarily. Modern tools allow non-invasive scanning. In rare cases, small access holes (e.g. drywall) may be needed for inspection, but restoration is minimal.
Can moisture issues be fixed after detection?
Yes. Once the source is identified—leaky pipe, roof, HVAC—you repair it. Then drying, dehumidification, and remediation restore affected surfaces.
How long does the detection process take?
Typically 1–3 hours, depending on the area size and complexity. Larger buildings or deep leaks may require more time.
