Moisture Inspection and Documentation in Des Moines, IA

Sometimes the question is simply whether there is still water in the building. A previous loss, a musty smell, a real estate transaction, a dispute with an adjuster who thinks the drying was finished.

Green Property Restoration performs moisture inspections across Des Moines, IA using thermal imaging to locate temperature anomalies and penetrating and non-penetrating meters to confirm actual moisture content. Thermal alone is not proof, because insulation gaps and drafts look similar on camera. The meter reading is the evidence.

You get a written report with images, readings by location and dates. Buyers use it during inspection periods. Owners use it when a contractor says a job is dry and the smell says otherwise. Adjusters accept it because it is the same documentation standard restoration firms work to.

Wood framing above roughly 16 percent moisture content supports mold growth. Drywall should read near zero on a non-penetrating meter. Those numbers, taken at specific locations, are what settle arguments.

Call Green Property Restoration at (833) 847-0762 to book an inspection.
