Moisture Intrusion Inspection

Moisture Intrusion Inspection

Trace Leaks. Prevent Mold. Protect Your Building.

Moisture intrusion often hides in walls, ceilings, or subflooring—causing damage to materials and microbial growth long before you see obvious signs.

 

At Full Spectrum Environmental, we specialize in non-invasive moisture inspections that identify water entry points, trace hidden leaks, and help prevent long-term damage.

 

Whether you’re experiencing musty odors, discoloration, or have had a recent storm, plumbing issue, or roof leak, we provide real answers fast.

What Is A Moisture Inspection?

A moisture intrusion inspection is a targeted investigation that uses advanced tools to detect where and how water is entering a building envelope. This service is designed to identify hidden leaks and trace moisture migration through building materials—often without requiring destructive testing.

Thermal Imaging

(Infrared Thermography) — Detect hidden temperature differences

Moisture Mapping

Identify elevated moisture in drywall, flooring, framing

Hygrometer Data

Evaluate indoor humidity and temperature trends

Why Choose a Building Moisture Inspection?

Water damage often starts subtly, hidden behind walls, ceilings, or flooring. Left unaddressed, it can lead to mold growth, material degradation, and elevated humidity concerns.

Why Moisture Inspections Matter

Moisture is the #1 cause of hidden water damage and mold growth in homes and commercial properties. Left unchecked, it can degrade finishes and other building materials. Our inspections provide peace of mind—and an action plan.

HVAC Leaks: A Hidden Cause of Moisture and Water Damage

One of the most common sources of hidden water damage we uncover is a leaking HVAC unit—especially when the air handler is installed in the attic. Over time, clogged drain lines, backflow issues, or pan overflows can lead to slow, continuous leaks that go unnoticed for weeks or even months.

Because these leaks often occur behind insulation or inside duct chases, homeowners don’t see the damage until it’s too late—often when ceiling stains, sagging drywall, or musty odors start to appear.


If you’ve recently discovered:

  • Water pooling near your HVAC unit

  • A slow drip from the ceiling

  • An increase in indoor humidity

  • Moisture near your attic or closet air handler

…it’s time to schedule a professional moisture intrusion inspection. Our technicians use thermal imaging and moisture meters to trace the source of leaks—even in inaccessible areas. Don’t wait for mold to form or materials to degrade. Let us identify the issue before it becomes a bigger, more expensive problem.
