Don't forget to have a moisture survey done when buying a home\u2014order an unbiased survey from us<\/b><\/h2>\n

You\u2019ve probably heard about the various inspections that are conducted when buying a single-family home. Many buyers assume that these inspections are only required for single-family home purchases, but that\u2019s not the case. Even if you\u2019re not buying a property but rather a condominium unit, it\u2019s always a good idea to have a moisture survey done on the unit you\u2019re purchasing. So whether it\u2019s an apartment building, a townhouse, a loft building, or a detached house, a moisture survey is worth doing. A moisture survey may also be necessary when buying a vacation home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Calculate the price<\/a><\/p>\n

Why is it always a good idea to conduct a moisture survey?<\/b><\/h2>\n

This helps ensure that the property you are purchasing does not have any excess moisture that shouldn\u2019t be there. Excessive moisture can pose health risks, damage structures and surfaces, and also affect the value of the home. Repairing moisture damage can be very expensive, so it\u2019s a good idea to clarify liability before closing the deal.<\/span><\/p>\n

A property listing on Etuovi.com stated the following:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201d<\/span> "A moisture survey was conducted using the surface measurement method; slight moisture was detected, and it is likely that the moisture is located between the tile and the waterproofing layer. The matter will be investigated further in case the moisture has penetrated the structure."\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

If moisture has penetrated the building\u2019s structure, the cost of repairs could run into tens of thousands of euros. It is likely that the house will be uninhabitable during the repairs. Water damage can also lead to mold growth, and mold can spread to furniture and textiles. In the worst-case scenario, these items will have to be discarded.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If a moisture survey is not conducted, such problems may go unnoticed and become even more severe.<\/span><\/p>\n

So don't skimp in the wrong place\u2014let the professionals help you with a moisture survey. Contact us<\/a> and tell you more about our services. We can get there quickly, and we are a reliable and impartial service provider.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Who is responsible for conducting a moisture survey?<\/b><\/h3>\n

It is the seller\u2019s responsibility to disclose any known issues. Moisture problems are often not disclosed. Conducting a moisture survey is not the responsibility of the housing association, and often the people involved in the transaction are not construction professionals who can identify potential structural risks or problems, so it is advisable to seek the assistance of a qualified expert.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sometimes, when doing business, the truth is also a little... <\/span>will be silaged<\/span> and negative aspects are rarely discussed, or are only mentioned in passing. It\u2019s important to be careful. For many people, however, buying a home is the biggest purchase of their lives.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who is conducting the survey?<\/b><\/h3>\n

If a moisture survey has not been conducted and one is requested, the real estate agent may suggest that their own partner perform the work. However, it is recommended to hire an external party to perform the survey so that the relationship between the real estate agent and the company conducting the measurements does not create uncertainty regarding the quality of the work. If a moisture survey has been conducted by a contractor recommended by the real estate agent and no moisture was found, but there is reason to suspect its presence, it may be appropriate to seek a second opinion and conduct a new survey.<\/span><\/p>\n

How is a moisture survey conducted?<\/b><\/h3>\n

There are several different ways to measure moisture. Typically, this is done using surface moisture measurement, which does not damage the structures. Before the measurement, it is advisable to avoid using wet rooms for a couple of days. Surface moisture measurement does not provide a complete picture of the actual situation, but it does help determine whether more detailed investigations are needed. If necessary, other methods can be employed; you can read more about them here<\/span> here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
