Finding water leaks in your building can be scary. If left uncontrolled, water damage and mold could soon set it causing additional costs for repair. Finding the source leak is paramount to prevent additional water intrusion, but water is fluid and follows the path of least resistance. A sign of a leak in one area may be originating from another area, or maybe it only leaks under the conditions such as wind-driven rain.
BECS’s expert staff understands the frustrations owners, managers, and tenants face when they see signs of water. Following practices outlined by ASTM and AAMA allows BECS to perform diagnostic testing with water to simulate rainfall or wind-driven rain to identify the source of entry and to follow the leak path.
