Water intrusion can impact the structure of your building as well as its occupants. Besides presenting structural issues, water intrusion issues left untreated can result in:
- Structural deterioration
- Development of toxic mold
- Negatively impacting the indoor air quality
- Wet concrete, puddles, and weakened floors could potentially cause slip and fall accidents
Avoid Costly Repairs with Water Intrusion Engineering
Some water damage is visible to the human eye (discolored walls and ceilings; cracking roof, peeling paint; warped and rotten wood on floors; mold growth), but structural damage inside your walls and floors are harder to spot.
Hiring engineering professionals to investigate water damage is key. Water intrusion engineers have modern technology like thermal imaging, and equipment to detect excessive moisture or mold spores in the air.
