What the investigation needs to establish
The evidence may be visible in one flat while the source sits in another. A useful investigation needs the right access and a clear record of timing. We consider the relevant fittings and shared routes before proposing tests or openings.
Bring the useful details
Arrange consent through the owner or managing agent and identify who can provide access above and below.
Keep the boundaries clear
Shared systems or wider building instructions may need a separate quotation. Responsibility is not established solely by the location of a stain.
A method with a purpose
Moisture mapping may form part of the investigation when the conditions suit it. We explain what the result supports and what remains uncertain.
