Water Damage Assessment

An assessment establishes what is wet, how wet it is and what that means for the materials in your property. It is the foundation of every restoration plan we build.

Common causes

  • Recent leaks of unknown extent
  • Damage discovered during a renovation
  • Pre-purchase moisture concerns
  • Second opinions on an existing scope

Signs you may notice

  • Uncertainty about the extent of damage
  • Conflicting advice about what to remove
  • Recurring damp in the same location
  • Need for documentation

Inspection and restoration process

  1. 01

    Discuss the situation over the phone and confirm what you are seeing at the property.

  2. 02

    Inspect the affected rooms and trace how far moisture in the property has travelled.

  3. 03

    Document moisture readings with meters and, where useful, thermal imaging.

  4. 04

    Extract standing water and remove saturated materials that cannot be dried in place.

  5. 05

    Set controlled drying and monitor readings until the structure stabilises.

  6. 06

    Review the finished area with you and hand over the documentation from the project.

Affected building materials

Readings are taken across flooring, walls, cavities and structural members so comparisons can be made between affected and unaffected areas.

Why prompt moisture control matters

  • A clear picture before decisions are made
  • Documented readings and photographs
  • A plan matched to the actual conditions
