Becoming a homeowner is exciting, although happiness can dwindle quickly if you locate moisture problems. A moisture inspection ensures you love your home as much in 10 and 20 years as the day you moved in.Protect Your Investment: The Importance of Moisture Inspections for Homeowners
Moisture is the main cause of mold and mildew, wood rot, structural damage, and even pest infestations. Dealing with moisture problems creates a costly headache for homeowners. By conducting regular moisture inspections, you discover problems before they grow out of hand.
What is a Moisture Inspection?
When you schedule a moisture inspection, we bring tools to your place that detect moisture presence in even the most hard-to-reach places. We examine every inch of your home, from the basement to the attic to the bedrooms, to identify any hidden moisture-related problems. Our specialized tools and expertise allow us to easily identify moisture presence in your house.
Signs of Moisture Damage
We’ll visually inspect your property for signs of moisture damage during the inspection. We spot the obvious signs and those not-so-obvious signs lurking beneath the surface. Signs of moisture damage include discolored patches on the wall or ceiling, mold, and mildew, peeling paint and wallpaper, and dampness in the air. Poor indoor air quality also concerns homeowners facing moisture problems and may produce breathing problems for people in the household, especially those already battling allergies or asthma.
The Benefits of Moisture Inspections
A moisture inspection prevents major problems with dampness from destroying your property and peace of mind. Inspections help keep your living environment healthy and safe while preventing the breakdown of your structure which requires expensive repairs.
