A Levant water damage inspection isn't a walk-through with a flashlight. It's a systematic, instrument-driven assessment that produces a written report showing exactly where the water went, how saturated each affected assembly is, and what needs to happen next.
Here's what makes our Levant inspection service more than a visual walk-through.
FLIR infrared thermal cameras detect temperature differentials in structural surfaces — a wet wall cavity cools differently than a dry one during evaporation, making moisture migration visible as a thermal signature even behind intact drywall. Our Levant inspection team uses thermal imaging as the primary tool for tracing water migration paths through wall systems, subfloor assemblies, and ceiling cavities, identifying affected areas before a single pin is driven into a wall.
Qualitative assessment says "it looks wet." Quantified readings say "this framing is at 28% moisture content and the dry standard is 10%."
A verbal assessment is an opinion. A written report with instrument readings is documentation.
Both use cases are available in Levant — contact us with your specific situation and our inspector will scope the right assessment.
Here are the specific inspection scenarios and assembly types our Levant team handles.
Active event inspection is the step that prevents under-scoped remediation and missed hidden damage.
Real estate transactions in Levant frequently involve properties with prior water events — disclosed and undisclosed. Our pre-purchase inspection uses thermal imaging and moisture meters to identify active moisture in structural assemblies, staining patterns consistent with prior water intrusion, and the condition of previous remediation. For Levant buyers, this inspection provides either confidence that a disclosed water event was properly handled, or documentation that it was not — giving the buyer negotiating leverage and a clear picture of what additional remediation cost, if any, is warranted.
After a water damage remediation project is completed in a Levant property — whether by COS Water Damage Restoration or another company — a verification inspection confirms that structural drying was completed to standard moisture content levels and that no hidden moisture was left behind. This inspection is requested by property owners who want independent confirmation of completion, by landlords who need documentation before returning a property to tenancy, and by sellers who need to demonstrate to a buyer that prior water damage was fully resolved. Our Levant post-remediation inspection produces a written verification report formatted for real estate and insurance use.
Mold risk assessment in Levant is distinct from air quality testing. We assess structural conditions and visible evidence — not air samples.
Below-grade spaces in Levant properties — crawlspaces, basement areas, and below-slab conditions — are among the most common locations for chronic moisture problems to go undetected. Our Levant below-grade inspection covers crawlspace wood framing moisture content readings at joists and beams, vapor barrier condition and coverage, condensation evidence on structural surfaces, and visual assessment for wood rot, fungal growth, and pest damage associated with chronic moisture. Written findings document the below-grade condition for remediation scoping or real estate disclosure.
Our Levant inspection reports are formatted to the documentation standards that insurance carriers use to evaluate water damage claims in ME.


Same-day scheduling available for active water events. Pre-purchase inspections booked on your transaction timeline.
Systematic, instrument-driven, fully documented during the on-site session.
After the on-site assessment, your Levant inspector reviews the key findings with you — which areas are affected, what the readings indicate, what water category applies, and what remediation is indicated. If you have questions about specific readings or want to understand what a particular finding means, this is the conversation for it. The verbal review happens on-site.
The written inspection report — thermal images with annotations, sensor point readings mapped to a floor plan, water category determination, and recommended scope — is delivered within 24-48 hours of the on-site session, formatted for insurance, remediation, or real estate use as appropriate to your situation. We're available to answer adjuster or real estate agent questions about the findings.



"We were purchasing a Levant home where the seller had disclosed a prior basement water event and claimed it was fully remediated. COS Water Damage Restoration's pre-purchase inspection found moisture readings in the wall framing adjacent to the original event area that were significantly above dry standard — indicating incomplete drying. The written report we received gave us specific sensor point readings that we used to negotiate remediation credit from the seller before closing. Without that inspection, we would have closed into a mold problem."
"I had noticed a musty smell in a room of my Levant home for months before calling COS Water Damage Restoration. Their inspection found active moisture in the subfloor assembly under an area rug — a slow pipe drip that had been going on long enough to saturate the subfloor significantly without any visible surface evidence. The written report documented the moisture readings, the thermal images showing the extent of the affected area, and the recommended scope. I would never have found this without the thermal camera."
"The post-remediation verification inspection is what I most value. After our last Levant property water event, the remediation contractor signed off on completion. We had COS Water Damage Restoration do a verification inspection and found one wall section with framing still above 15% moisture content. That section would have been a mold problem within weeks. The verification inspection caught it before it became our problem."
