Moisture mapping helps pinpoint hidden leaks, support insurance claims, assess roof serviceability, and guide decisions on repair, replacement, or coating—while also helping maintain warranty compliance.
Electronic leak detection helps contractors, building owners, and insurance professionals locate the source of leaks and validate repairs. While infrared scans are ideal for identifying trapped moisture, high-voltage ELD is a precise, non-invasive method that can...
Jeff Carrillo from Structura View and Marvin Rosario from Airweb Digital , discussed a recent project where 121 thermal anomalies were detected on a monolithic 1.2 million sq. ft. roof system. What’s interesting? No visible damage, no heavy discoloration, and no...
Client Challenge The roofing contractor needed to identify and repair leaks in a roof comprised of a Modified Bitumen membrane over lightweight insulating concrete, layered on a built-up roof with gravel, perlite insulation, and a concrete deck. The primary goal was...
Commercial roofs, with their various forms and constructions, play a critical role in safeguarding buildings from the elements. However, over time, moisture can silently undermine their integrity. To mitigate this risk, we rely on specific tools to detect moisture. In...
Strategies to Overcome Worker Scarcity and Optimize Roofing Operations Roofing worker shortages have been a challenge for quite some time and according to current research, there's no end in sight. The impact of this labor shortage forces roofing contractors to...
Once a low sloped or flat roof ages, difficult leaks and maintenance problems become a nightmare to track down and properly repair. Traditional methods of finding a leak involves studying where the leak is coming through to the inside of the building and then walking...
I received a phone call about a building in Melbourne, Florida. The building maintenance engineer expressed concern for major leaks experienced in the main entrance of the building. I was told they think they had multiple problems that contributed to the leaks, but...
Thermal imaging is one step in the process of inspecting and understanding the condition of a roof. The concept is simple in the sense that we are only identifying where we suspect moisture to be. Once the anomalies are identified and highlighted, the physical...
When dealing with a roof that spans 30,000 sq. ft., even small areas of hidden moisture can create major costs if left unchecked. Structura View was called in to perform a large-scale assessment of this expansive system, comprised of a modified bitumen membrane,...
In Orlando, Structura View was called in to perform a moisture scan on a 30,000-sq.-ft. roof in Orlando before a change in ownership. By conducting a full moisture analysis, Structura View provided the purchasing team with critical data on the roof’s condition and...
Drainage is often the weak link. Even when the roof membrane performs, failures at drains can let water into wall framing and roof systems. Regular checks and documentation help catch these failures before they turn into major repairs. Turn routine drainage checks...
