How Technology Can Help

Water leaks can cause serious damage to a structure and are often difficult to detect until it’s too late. The subtle signs are easy to miss until water begins dripping from the ceiling. At SERVPRO of East Riverside City, we utilize advanced tools that allow us to detect hidden moisture. Chief amongst these is the infrared camera.

An infrared camera produces thermal images that reveal subtle temperature differences. How? Every object emits infrared light, even cold ones. An infrared camera measures the amount of infrared light that is emitted off of a surface. The measurement is then calculated to determine the temperature. Visible temperature differences indicate the presence of moisture.

However, identifying a pattern that looks like moisture does not always guarantee the presence of water damage. That's why we follow up on infrared findings using another valuable tool, the moisture meter. The meter will confirm whether we’ve detected is in fact water.

These tools allow us to detect hidden moisture without cutting into walls, which speeds up the testing process helps keeps costs low. That's the SERVPRO difference!

Another great technology tool is the Matterport camera. The Matterport works with a wide range of 3D cameras, 360 cameras and iPads designed to suit all your capture needs. This gives you the flexibility to create a Matterport digital twin of any size, scale, and complexity of a whole house or just a room.  This way we are able to get a full scope of the home in 3D imaging, rather than going through the whole house taking pictures on your phone.

The Matterport is a great on the job tool for:
