Locate trapped water in commercial roof assemblies before failure. Delivered across Richmond by Thermal Leak, a Leak.ca division.
604-239-9934Same-day response in RichmondFlat and low-slope roofs are the most expensive envelope element to replace and the most commonly mismanaged. A thermal moisture survey, conducted at the right time of day, shows exactly where water has entered the insulation layer — long before it reaches the deck or the interior. We produce these for property managers planning roof-replacement budgets, for buyers conducting due diligence, and for envelope consultants needing condition data. The deliverable is a thermal map overlay with quantified wet-area square footage, suitable for capital planning.
Crawl-space moisture in delta-soil construction, envelope condensation in tightly built modern homes, attic moisture in cathedral-ceiling designs common to Richmond.
Richmond's built environment — low-rise wood-frame condos, single-family on small lots, City Centre high-rises, agricultural in east Richmond — shapes how flat roof moisture survey is delivered locally. Richmond sits at 1 m above sea level on the Fraser delta. The high water table makes slab leaks and basement seepage common, and the dyke-protected drainage system means stormwater issues quickly become structural ones. Construction is largely 1980s–2000s with growing concrete-tower density in City Centre.
