Do you wince when you see the weather report calling for rain, knowing that the pesky leak the roofers can’t seem to fix is going to start dripping water down the walls of your business – or worse – dripping water onto your equipment?
It can be frustrating when you see evidence of water seepage but no one can locate the reason why!
Did you know that as much as 90% of all water intrusion problems occur within 1% of the total building or structure exterior surface area?
Even more amazing is that approximately 99% of waterproofing leaks are from reasons other than material or system failures!
Part of the reason that the source of the leak can be hard to locate is that water travels. Where the water breaks through may actually be quite a distance from the actual leak. In commercial buildings, that means that literally thousands of feet of roof space is suspect.
Roof scans, sometimes called roof surveys, use infrared thermography to spot thermal anomalies in the roof. It’s like providing GPS coordinates to the needle in the haystack!

Poor installation may be the reason that your roof is leaking.

Thanks Pep! Yes, exactly the point. It MAY be the reason, but then again, it may NOT. Wasting money on solutions that may or may not work isn't the answer. Infrared thermography pinpoints the source of the leak quickly and accurately, allowing the builder owner to make an informed decision on how to fix it.
