Residents of New Jersey, Right now we are in Forked River working a local contractor, Brandsema Construction, offering FREE Moisture Checks on homes damaged by Hurricane Sandy. Normally we would charge $150 for this service but we are waving that due to the amount residents that need help. Please call us (919)669-0591 to schedule your free appointment. We will come in and check the drywall, wood and floors to make sure they are not holding in water that can cause mold growth.

- Moisture levels in the wood studs and other material should be 16% or lower

- Moisture levels higher than 16% can grow mold and create adverse health effects inside the home

- Moisture readings should be taken by a Professional, IICRC Certified Firm that has been trained in Water Damage Cleanup Procedures

- Moisture readings must be taken with a moisture meter that penetrates into the wood in order to get an accurate analysis

- Wet Materials Must Be Dried Using Fans And Dehumidiers To schedule your appointment please call (919)669-0591
