No. Water may first appear as a warm patch, damp seam or swollen baseboard.
Why check wall bases in Herminie?
Water can wick upward from the floor into drywall and trim. Moisture readings identify those low wet areas.
Should a Herminie homeowner call a plumber first?
A plumber locates and fixes the leaking pipe. The cleanup crew handles any water left in floors, walls or cabinets.
