Water Leak Repair Guide

Method

Moisture Metering

Readings interpreted, not just reported.

Pin and pinless meters measure moisture content and relative damp. Grid readings, gradients and dry references turn numbers into a map of where water is and where it is not.

How it works

  • Grid readings across the suspect area
  • Comparative readings against a known-dry reference
  • Mapping gradient to find the source direction

Limits, stated plainly

  • Readings are relative and material-dependent
  • Metals and dense materials affect pinless meters
  • Laboratory testing is separate where required

Quick answers

Is Moisture Metering invasive?

No. The method works from surfaces and accessible points; if a small access point is needed to confirm a finding, it is discussed before anything is opened.

Can Moisture Metering be used on its own?

Moisture Metering is strongest when paired with a confirming method. Findings are only reported once verified, which is why single-method clues are labelled as such.
