Leak Detection – Florida’s Gulf Coast
Water damage often starts quietly. A small leak behind a wall or under flooring can cause major problems before you ever see a stain. On Florida’s Gulf Coast, where humidity is high and storms are frequent, early leak detection is critical to protecting your property.
At R.E. Mold and Water, we specialize in non-invasive leak detection using infrared and moisture detection. Our team helps homeowners and property managers locate hidden problems before they lead to expensive repairs.
Don’t Let Leaks Ruin Your Home
Your leak inspection begins with a thorough visual walkthrough of your home or business. We look for signs like bubbling paint, soft drywall, warped flooring, or musty odors. From there, we use infrared detection to identify areas where temperature changes suggest moisture. Moisture detection tools confirm exactly where the leak is and how far it has spread.
We inspect plumbing lines, HVAC systems, walls, ceilings, and floors. The goal is to find the source of the problem with as little disruption as possible. After the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed written report outlining what we found, where the leak is located, and what should be done next.
How It Works
We start by scheduling a convenient time for your inspection. Once on-site, our technician conducts a full visual check of all areas that may be affected. Using infrared detection, we scan for hidden moisture inside surfaces that can’t be seen with the eye alone.
Next, we use moisture detection to verify findings and determine how far the water has traveled. If needed, we may run a basic pressure test to evaluate your plumbing system.
Within 48 hours—or sooner if it’s an emergency—you’ll receive a full report prepared by our operations manager. It includes images, notes, and next-step recommendations. Minor leaks can often be repaired by our team. For larger issues, we work with trusted contractors to make sure repairs happen quickly and correctly.
We are fully licensed and insured under state license number MRSR4930.
Who Needs This
Leak detection is important for anyone seeing signs of moisture but not sure where it’s coming from. If you notice water spots, peeling paint, soft flooring, or musty odors, don’t wait to act. High water bills with no explanation can also point to hidden leaks.
We work with homeowners, landlords, HOAs, and businesses across the region. Whether it’s a single leak or a building-wide concern, we have the tools to locate the issue accurately.
What To Expect
Your inspection takes about an hour, depending on the size and layout of your property. All equipment is handheld, quiet, and safe to use around pets, tenants, or employees. We don’t open walls or cause damage—our tools work through surfaces to detect the leak.
After the appointment, we’ll send your full report digitally or in print. It includes photos, descriptions, and documentation you can use for insurance claims, maintenance planning, or follow-up services.
If the issue is minor, we can often resolve it right away. For major leaks, we’ll help you coordinate next steps with trusted professionals.
