Specialized Behind Wall Water Extraction Methods in Camp Nelson

Emergency Behind Wall Water Removal

Help is available any hour when water is pouring from a wall or a pipe has burst inside it.

Moisture Barrier Installation

Barrier replacement is done after the cavity is dry, so moisture is not sealed in behind new materials.

Hidden Water Damage Detection

Detection starts at the visible stain or soft spot and works outward, checking studs, baseboards and the floor along the wall.

Wall Cavity Water Extraction

Wet insulation inside the cavity holds water against the studs. It is pulled out so the cavity can be extracted and dried.

Wall Leak Source Identification

Leak tracing uses readings, thermal images and the pattern of the stain to find where water enters the wall.
