What is moisture detection?

It involves using professional meters to measure water content within building materials like drywall, timber and concrete.

Why do I need professional moisture detection?

Yes, our specialised pin and pinless meters can detect moisture migration beneath various flooring types.

Do you document findings for insurance?

Is the process invasive?

We use non-destructive meters wherever possible to assess moisture levels without damaging your property's finishes.

How deep can you detect moisture?

Our advanced tools detect moisture deep within building cavities, wall structures and sub-flooring.

Can you detect leaks behind tiles?

Yes, we use moisture meters to identify water migration behind tiled surfaces, helping pinpoint the source of leaks.

Is moisture detection necessary after a flood?
