Each case study sets out the challenge, the evidence, the decision, the intervention and how completion was verified. Client names and exact addresses are omitted.
Concealed moisture
Concealed moisture beneath timber floor construction
Evidence
Instrument-led moisture assessment at defined test locations, with flooring removed to expose timber joists and concealed construction.
Challenge
Concealed moisture sometimes requires proportionate opening-up before drying can be verified.
Intervention
Specialist drying equipment and distribution hoses arranged across the floor to address retained moisture within or beneath the floor build-up.
Decision
Opening-up kept proportionate, with sound construction preserved where practicable.
Verification
Comparative readings at a defined floor or wall interface, taken at repeatable monitoring points rather than as isolated readings.
