A contractor on the other hand is going to tell you what they think needs to be done, but is going to do a visual walk through with you listen to what you want to do, and not worry about the smaller finishes or try to figure thing out.For instance last week I did an inspection for a local flipper and found moisture in the framing of all the windows.  

Rick, sorry about spelling, it is Advantech. http://www.huberwood.com/advantech/performance/moisture.

Would you chuck out a renter for having 100 regular indoor plants under the "moisture" headline?

Also, be very careful in reading the language of the fine prints in the coverage and exceptions.I am in Florida and I know my policy does not cover the "repair" of pipe leaks but does cover damages caused by sudden and unexpected leaks.So if a leak happens underground below your slab, the cost to remove the tiles/carpet/wood flooring, breaking up the slab, tearing up the baseboard, excavating to the location of breakage, are all covered, then the actual repair, which might be a $300 simple job, NOT covered, then to lay down a bed of gravel, refill, compaction, termicide application, moisture barrier, repour concrete and reinforcement, new flooring, new baseboards, painting etc...are again covered.

A thermo fogger heats up a deodorizer oil and expels it in a fog/smoke manner which penetrates in the floor and walls for a long lasting fresh smell.

He said that its more vulnerable to moisture and will buckle at the doorway.

As a contractor I believe underlayment is very important under laminated flooring (unless the flooring has integrated underlayment)  as it helps minimize the moist penetration and overall help with the squeaking of the floor.

Drywall everything above that with a no mold ,water resistant sheetrock and paint it with a couple good coats or three of good enamel paint to keep moisture away.Best part of a demo to the studs is you can replace wiring,drain plumbing ect as well as upgrade to a modern light/vent that is ducted all the way outside and insulated to prevent condense inside.

With a slab foundation is there a worry about moisture wicking up?

Those $20 pin-style moisture meters at the big box stores are darn handy.
