Roof Leak Locating

Ceiling & Attic Moisture

Ceiling and Attic Moisture Investigation

Not all ceiling moisture comes through the roof. Condensation, plumbing and ventilation faults can look identical from below. The investigation tells them apart.

Symptoms we're called for

  • Attic damp or frost patterns
  • Ceiling stains that grow in winter, not rain
  • Musty odours in upper rooms
  • Mould on roof sheathing or trusses

Property types

  • Homes and townhouses
  • Strata attic and roof spaces
  • Cathedral and vaulted ceilings

Methods used

  • Moisture and thermal mapping of ceilings and roof spaces
  • Ventilation and air-path assessment
  • Plumbing isolation where lines run above
  • Roof detail review where entry is suspected

Limitations, stated plainly

  • Ventilation remediation design is provided by others
  • Confined attic access must be safe and authorized

What you receive

  • A classification of the moisture source
  • Mapped extent with readings
  • Priority next steps by trade

Next steps
