Consider hiring Innovative Construction Solutions and our team of experts in Naples, Florida, when you need leak detection services on a new construction project or existing home.
With decades of experience in Southwest Florida, the Innovative Construction Solutions team has extensive backgrounds in luxury home and commercial construction and brings a unique set of skills to the process of testing and evaluating building envelope conditions using both invasive and non-invasive techniques.
Window & Roof Leaks
Naples roofs and windows have to withstand the forces of hurricanes and unrelenting sun, moisture and heat. Extreme weather, poor design, and poor construction can all contribute to leaks. They are often too small to detect with the naked eye, but the longer they go unchecked, the more damage they will cause.
Innovative Construction Solutions specialists can test your exterior windows for water leakage utilizing a spray rack that is typically positioned in the general area of the suspected water infiltration. We also provide infrared imaging for window leak detection using FLIR thermal imaging cameras, the highest quality infrared equipment in the industry. These tests can quickly identify the source and location of any leaks and the extent of moisture damage.
We also utilize the latest leak detection technologies to find hidden leaks in flat and barrel concrete tile roofs and metal roofs. Our inspectors have extensive knowledge and experience in both newly installed roofing systems and re-roofing systems.
Air Leaks
Next to rain damage, air leaks through walls, roofs, and floors can be responsible for significant energy loss and home deterioration.
Heating and cooling accounts for about 54% of your energy usage, and air leaks are responsible for more than half of that. They can also cause problems with indoor air quality that affect the health of your family.
Uncontrolled leaks also carry moisture into framing cavities, causing mold and rot, water damage, or pest infestations, and can have a damaging effect on your home’s structural integrity.
By sealing the air leaks, we can help reduce the amount of conditioned air that is escaping from your home, improve the quality of the indoor air, and prevent moisture from wreaking havoc on the structure.
We perform smoke testing and thermographic testing to pinpoint hidden air leaks. We also perform blower door tests to depressurize the home and detect air infiltrating through imperfections in the building envelope. Blower door testing can help homeowners and building contractors meet Florida building code requirements on new construction homes.
Once we have tested and identified the areas of the home that need sealing, Innovative Construction Solutions can help you find affordable and effective solutions.
