IS YOUR BUILDING AT HIGHER RISK OF WATER PENETRATION?
Scheduled inspections are crucial for effective building maintenance. Original waterproofing, applied during construction, typically lasts over 20 years for high-rise, commercial, and industrial buildings. During inspections, consider the following factors:
- Age of the building
- Visible water stains and mold
- Cracks in the foundation and walls
- Building corners
- Structural components between the roof and top floor
- Location prone to frequent flooding
- The presence of an underground parking garage or basement
- Recent water drainage or runoff issues
- Structural elements prone to movement
- Indoor or outdoor swimming pool, deck, or patio area
If you suspect water damage but cannot access the affected area, thermal imaging can help determine the location and extent of the damage.
