Moisture and Leak Detection in UK Buildings

Moisture intrusion can cause extensive long term damage to buildings, contents and have far reaching health effects. Moisture may originate from internal or external leaks, rising damp, and condensation. Condensation problems are increasingly found in new construction where new construction and novel materials are utilised to reduce costs. Unfortunately many of today’s construction projects rely on sealers instead of proper water management systems. Leaks can materialise far away from their source as water generally falls or travels by gravity and capillary action.

Failures in building design, construction supervision can and often does lead to extensive damage which without the use of specialist equipment would require extensive intrusive investigation or soft demolition. Many condensation or mould type issues are caused by lifestyle or construction defect and specialist knowledge is required to identify these issues.
