Map moisture

The typical home in the ZIP codes around Hanover was built in the 1970s. A pipe behind a tiled wall can wet backing materials for some time. The technician assesses each layer. A technician may need to inspect the opposite wall face.
Unheated crawl spaces expose plumbing to winter cold. A break may wet the floor above. The cleanup crew checks the subfloor for saturation. An occupied home may have wet furnishings as well as building materials. Sort contents safely.
