When your home suffers water, fire, or mold damage, every minute counts—and every decision matters. At A+ Services, we know how overwhelming these moments can be. That’s why we invest in cutting-edge restoration technology to help Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati homeowners recover faster, safer, and more confidently.

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the advanced tools our licensed restoration teams use every day to protect homes and restore peace of mind.

1. Thermal Imaging Cameras: Seeing the Damage You Can’t

Not all water damage is visible. Moisture can hide behind walls, under floors, or in insulation long after a leak has been cleaned up. That’s where thermal imaging comes in.

Our infrared cameras detect subtle changes in surface temperature—revealing where water is trapped, even if everything looks dry on the outside.

Why it matters:

  • Helps us pinpoint hidden moisture without tearing into walls

  • Prevents mold growth by ensuring no wet spots are missed

  • Speeds up insurance claims with visual evidence of damage

Pro tip: If you’ve had a recent leak or flood, a thermal scan can confirm whether your home is truly dry. It’s one of the first steps in our water damage restoration process.

2. Moisture Meters: Precision Drying That Protects Your Home

Once moisture is identified, we need to track it as the drying process begins. That’s where moisture meters come in—tools that measure the exact amount of moisture in wood, drywall, and other materials.

At A+ Services, we use both penetrating and non-penetrating moisture meters to:

  • Measure drying progress in real-time

  • Determine which materials need to be removed or salvaged

  • Ensure that your structure is dry to industry standards

Important note: Just because something feels dry doesn’t mean it is. Moisture behind surfaces can still cause rot, warping, and mold if left unchecked.

3. Air Scrubbers: Cleaning the Air You Breathe

After fire, flood, or mold damage, the air inside your home can be filled with harmful particles—smoke, mold spores, bacteria, and other contaminants.

Our commercial-grade air scrubbers use HEPA filtration to purify the air and make your indoor environment safe again. These machines:

  • Trap 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns

  • Reduce allergy and asthma triggers

  • Support odor removal after fire or mold remediation

When do we use air scrubbers?

  • During mold removal

  • After smoke damage

  • During tear-out and reconstruction to minimize dust

If your home smells musty or smoky after a fire or flood, schedule an indoor air quality check.

4. Sewer and Pipe Cameras: Finding the Source of Water Damage

Sometimes, the damage starts underground—like a broken sewer line, clogged drain, or slab leak. Our high-resolution video inspection tools let us look inside your pipes without digging or damage.

We use these cameras to:

  • Identify cracked or collapsed pipes

  • Confirm drain blockages

  • Trace slow leaks from hidden plumbing lines

Why it helps homeowners:

  • Cuts down on guesswork (and unnecessary digging)

  • Speeds up plumbing repairs and insurance documentation

  • Helps prevent future water intrusion and mold issues

This is especially helpful in older homes throughout Covington, Florence, and Newport where aging sewer systems are common.
