Water Detection Moisture Mapping and Detection Methods

Moisture Mapping is a critical process in a building’s life cycle. The main objective can be to locate moisture or to verify the effectiveness of a repair. This method aids in the detection of moisture that is not visible to the naked eye and helps prevent damage.

How to Detect Dampness in a Wall?

Here are some helpful tips on how to identify dampness in a wall:

  • Visual Inspection: Look for visible signs of moisture, such as water stains, mold, or peeling paint.
  • Moisture Meter: Particularly useful in confirming the presence and location of moisture within walls or other building materials.
  • Infrared Camera: This advanced device can detect temperature differences indicating moisture problems.
  • Relative Humidity Measurement: High humidity inside walls can indicate moisture problems.
  • Physical Signs: Check for any unexplained soft spots or crumbling in walls or floors.
