Our Services
Leak Detection & Moisture Assessment
Investigate water intrusion with moisture readings and thermal imaging where appropriate. Our team comes to your property throughout King and Snohomish counties.
What happens when you contact us?
We’ll ask where the property is located, what happened, when the damage was discovered, and which areas appear affected. We’ll discuss availability, provide an arrival estimate, and explain how an assessment can be arranged.
At your property, we inspect accessible affected areas, explain our findings, and review the recommended scope and authorization requirements before proceeding.
Our leak detection & moisture assessment process
Investigate accessible areas
Moisture readings and thermal imaging, where appropriate, help identify areas for closer investigation. Thermal imaging shows temperature differences and is not a view through walls.
Explain the next step
We review findings and restoration needs. A plumber, roofer, or other specialist may be needed to confirm or repair the source.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you respond?+
Emergency service is available 24/7. Call with the property location and a description of the damage so we can discuss availability and provide an arrival estimate.
How long does drying take?+
Drying time depends on the materials, moisture levels, extent of the damage, and site conditions. Moisture readings guide the process.
Can you handle repairs after drying?+
Yes. We provide restoration repairs. We review the repair scope, materials, and scheduling before work begins.
How is the cost determined?+
Cost depends on the affected areas, materials, contamination, equipment, and work required. We discuss the recommended scope and authorization before proceeding.
Do you work with insurance?+
We can discuss damage documentation and billing arrangements. Coverage, deductibles, and payment responsibilities depend on your policy, claim, and agreed terms.
Do you work on commercial properties?+
Yes. We serve homes and businesses. Contact us to discuss property access, the affected areas, and service availability.
FREE INTERIOR LEAK DETECTIONFind the moisture.

Understand the next step.
What is free interior leak detection?
Hidden leaks may start at appliance connections, pipes within walls, plumbing fixtures, or roof and window entry points. They may remain unnoticed until staining, odors, or damage appears. An interior moisture inspection helps investigate those concerns.
We offer a no-cost, no-obligation inspection using thermal imaging cameras and electronic moisture meters. We focus on accessible areas where you suspect a problem and discuss what the readings indicate. Choosing the inspection does not obligate you to purchase restoration services.
Thermal imaging: temperature patterns
Infrared equipment detects differences in surface temperature. A pattern may identify an area that needs closer investigation, but a thermal image alone does not prove a leak, show water directly, or see through a wall.
We interpret those patterns alongside visible conditions and moisture measurements. The goal is to narrow the investigation rather than rely on a photograph alone.
Moisture meters: checking materials
Moisture meters help assess whether building materials show elevated moisture. Readings can help distinguish an area requiring further investigation from a temperature difference with another cause.
When restoration is needed, moisture readings can also support the drying plan and help track progress. Access, finishes, and the materials involved affect what can be assessed.
Why investigate sooner?
Persistent moisture can affect drywall, wood, insulation, floor coverings, and adjacent rooms. An issue that starts in a small area may require more extensive removal and repair if the source continues.
Investigating promptly helps you understand whether source repair, drying, cleaning, or another next step is appropriate. We explain the findings rather than assume every concern requires a restoration project.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Signs worth investigating.
Stains or changes in finishes
Water marks, bubbling paint, peeling finishes, or discoloration on a ceiling or wall can prompt a closer look at moisture conditions.
Warping or soft materials
Changes in flooring, swollen trim, or softened drywall can indicate that materials have been exposed to moisture.
Musty odors or recurring dampness
A persistent odor or an area that repeatedly feels damp is worth discussing. Humidity and ventilation can also contribute, so an assessment should consider the conditions.
An unexplained change in water use
An unexpected water-bill increase may be a reason to investigate plumbing or other water use. Describe what changed when you contact us; source confirmation may require a plumber.
YOUR INSPECTION VISITWhat to expect
What to expect
when we come to your property.
Start with the areas of concern
Point out where you noticed staining, odors, visible water, or other changes. We ask when the issue started and whether anything has changed. An authorized adult should be available to provide access and discuss findings.
Check accessible locations
Depending on the concern, the inspection may include walls near bathrooms, kitchens or laundry areas, ceilings below fixtures or rooflines, basement surfaces, accessible crawlspaces, and areas near windows or doors.
Review the findings together
We explain relevant thermal images and moisture readings, describe the affected areas, and discuss possible causes and recommended next steps. A typical visit may take 30–60 minutes, with timing varying by access, property size, and the areas being checked.
Separate detection, source repair, and restoration
If a plumbing component has failed, a plumber may need to repair it. Roof or other entry-point repairs may require another specialist. Restoration Pro can discuss drying and repairs to the resulting damage as a separate scope.
SERVICE-SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
More about your free leak check.
Is the interior leak detection inspection free?+
Our interior moisture inspection is offered at no charge and without an obligation to buy restoration work. When scheduling, confirm the property location, the areas to be checked, and the scope of the visit. Plumbing repairs, invasive investigation, and restoration work are separate.
Do I need to be at the property?+
An adult owner, property manager, or authorized representative should be available to provide safe access, point out the areas of concern, and discuss findings.
What if no abnormal moisture is detected?+
We explain what was and was not found in the accessible areas inspected. Other factors such as humidity or ventilation may be relevant. The inspection reflects the conditions and areas assessed at the time.
What happens if you find moisture?+
We review the readings and affected areas, discuss likely causes and the next step for confirming or repairing the source, and can prepare a scope for restoration services where needed.
Will you repair a leaking pipe?+
Our service focuses on identifying moisture and restoring resulting damage. Repair of a failed plumbing component typically requires a plumber. We can discuss coordinating restoration after the source is addressed.
