The survey was completed at dusk and the report generated onsite in under twenty minutes.
"CTI RoofCAM is an excellent tool for building inspections, the large LCD screen keeps us safe when working at heights," explains Bob Weber from CBC.
"The CTI Basic Building Science course really helped us get the most out of the CTI RoofCAM and ReportIR packages." The use of CTI RoofCAM and ReportIR saved the school over eighty thousand pounds as a localized repair could be completed rather than a total roof replacement project.
In light of this and other successes CBC have expanded their business offering into building science infrared, exclusively utilizing CTI RoofCAM to scan for water ingress indicative of everything from true, water ingress to damp detection indicating toxic mold growth.
