M

Moisture Mapping

Pin and pinless meters plus an infrared camera show exactly where water traveled, including under cabinets, inside walls, and across the subfloor.

C

Containment for Faster Drying

Plastic containment creates a smaller drying chamber, so dehumidifiers work on a defined space and drying moves faster.

I

Drying Inside Walls Without Demo

Small holes behind baseboards let injection systems push dry air into wall cavities, which can avoid tearing out drywall that is otherwise sound.

F

Drying Wood Floors and Subfloors

Hardwood and subfloors are dried with mats and controlled airflow to reduce cupping.

V

Final Readings

Drying ends only when readings confirm the structure is dry, and you get the log for your records.

FAQ

What People Ask About Drying

Most jobs take three to five days. Dense materials like hardwood, plaster, and concrete can take a week or longer.

Household units move far less air and cannot reach the low humidity levels needed to pull moisture out of framing and subfloors. Drying slowly also gives mold time to grow.

Dry standard is the normal moisture reading of the same type of material in an unaffected part of the home. Drying is complete when wet materials match it.

GPP is a measure of moisture in the air. Lower GPP means faster drying.

Yes. Air movers and dehumidifiers are noisy and add heat. Most people can stay home, but you may want to close doors to the drying area at night.

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service that connects you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who perform the drying.
