Moisture Detection and Mapping in the United States

As hidden moisture is traced, nationally, most home inspections with meter readings and a moisture map run about $150 to $400.

From the first damage clue, no, and anyone who says otherwise is overselling it. During the watchful inspection, the camera reads surface temperature, and wet areas often look cooler because evaporation cools them.

From the first damage clue, a pinless moisture meter reads through the surface using a capacitance reading, so it scans large areas fast without marks.

During the watchful inspection, only with your permission, and only where readings justify it. To protect nearby materials, a borescope hole is about the size of a pen and usually goes in a spot that will be painted or hidden anyway.

As hidden moisture is traced, you can, and an inexpensive meter will tell you wet from dry in a rough way.

From the first damage clue, usually yes when it is part of a covered loss and the mapping supports the mitigation recovery plan.

To protect nearby materials, we scan outward from the known wet area until readings match unaffected material, in every direction including up and down.
