Pin probes are a valuable tool in flood restoration, offering precise moisture readings by directly measuring the water content inside materials. These handheld devices use metal pins that are inserted into surfaces such as wood, drywall, or concrete to detect moisture levels at specific depths. Pin probes are particularly effective for assessing areas with higher levels of saturation or pinpointing localized water damage that may not be immediately visible. By providing accurate data on moisture content, pin probes help us determine the severity of the damage, ensuring targeted drying and effective remediation. Additionally, they can be used throughout the drying process to monitor progress, ensuring that materials reach the appropriate moisture levels before final restoration work begins.
