Detecting Water Damage in St. Clair Shores

Thermal Imaging

Sometimes you might not know exactly what has been affected when you have a water leak. Did you know that we can detect hidden moisture with the use of thermal imaging? We can detect where moisture has infiltrated walls, carpeting etc. with the use of thermal imaging cameras. A thermal imaging camera can detect slight temperature differences inside your home. It creates a visual map so we can pinpoint the location of leaks and moisture.

Generally speaking, the higher an object's temperature, the more infrared radiation is emitted as black-body radiation. A special camera can detect this radiation in a way similar to the way an ordinary camera detects visible light. It works even in total darkness because ambient light level does not matter.
