Comprehensive Water Damage Assessments

Water intrusion from flooding, sewage backup, and leaking roofs or sewer pipes contaminate your home or business and cause secondary mold damage. Exposure to these contaminated water sources dramatically increases the risk of dangerous digestive system diseases and other related illnesses.

Moisture Detection

We provide detection and assessment of moisture within walls, floors, ceiling cavities, insulation, and other building materials. If these areas are wet, it may indicate the presence of leaking pipes, condensation issues, or other moisture problems leading to corrosion or mold growth. Infrared cameras, thermo hygrometers, moisture meters, and moisture mapping are just a few tools and techniques we utilize to locate water intrusion and trace the moisture back to its source. The combined use of these instruments and methods provides vital information for the restoration technicians to find, document, and assess moisture levels throughout the drying process, from the initial to the final inspection.

Moisture Mapping

Once the moisture in your home or business has been detected, we will put together a visual representation with a floor plan that outlines the location and size of the affected areas and the corresponding moisture content values for these affected areas, as compared to the ‘dry standard’ of a non-affected site. Moisture maps serve as an invaluable communication tool between our consultants, restoration technicians, insurance companies, adjusters, and attorneys by providing valuable data in cases involving controversy and archiving vital information for reference in future building diagnostic projects.

Bacteria & Mold Sampling

Based on the source of water intrusion and the extent of water damage (secondary mold growth present), our consultants will determine if any mold or bacteria sampling is warranted to identify any exposure risk to the building occupants and to what extent. Sampling methods may include indoor air quality, swab, and bulk testing. All swabs & bulk samples are sent to a verified 3rd party lab to be cultured and tested within 48 hours. Once the results are returned to Flo-Air, our consultants will then interpret and analyze the findings in a Water Restoration Protocol.
