Flat Roof Infared Moisture Surveys in Fairfax County

 
Owning a home or building in Fairfax County means preparing yourself for the inevitable – you will eventually have to deal with roof leaks. The nature of the design of a flat roof makes it problematic in the variety of extreme weather conditions that occur in this part of the country. Although it is built with a slight incline, it does not have the same ability to shed water as a regular sloped roof. It is almost impossible to prevent small dips and valleys from developing in the roof where pools of water from rain and melting snow accumulate.
 
A professional Fairfax County roofer can examine your roof for obvious signs of deterioration, but once the water gets inside your home, only flat roof infrared moisture surveys can reveal where the water has soaked into the building materials and insulation. There is a difference in heat output in areas of wetness that show up in the thermal images. Excessively humid insulation fails to buffer the inside of your home from hot or cold weather. You will see the difference in the cost of your energy bill when it increases.
 
It can take several months to over a year before you notice any signs of water damage inside your home, and during that time water could be soaking into the your ceilings, walls and floors. Mildew and rot set in. One of the worst hazards to you health; black mold spawns colonies of deadly spores throughout the house. In some cases, home owners have been forced to abandon their homes after the mold erupted uncontrollably.
 
The point is, that the longer roof leaks in Fairfax County homes are left unattended the greater will be the cost to complete the repairs. There is no way around it. When you notice a water stain inside your home, you are witnessing the final stage of the leak. It means that the drywall or plaster and everything else behind it is soaking wet. It can destroy the wiring, fixtures, hardwood flooring, carpets and furniture.
 
You can save money by patching leaks, but only if you catch them in the beginning. Your roofing contractor can narrow down the problem to a specific location using flat roof moisture surveys.
