What Structural Drying Includes

Good drying starts with a moisture map and ends with readings that match dry standard. Everything in between is about controlling air, temperature, and humidity.

M

Moisture Mapping

Meters and thermal imaging trace water into hidden spots before drying begins.

C

Containment for Faster Drying

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

I

In-Wall Air Injection

Injecting dry air through small holes can dry wall cavities without full flood cuts.

F

Drying Wood Floors and Subfloors

Floor mat systems and targeted airflow dry hardwood and plywood subfloors slowly enough to limit cupping and cracking.

V

Final Readings

Equipment stays until wet materials match dry standard readings. The final log becomes part of your insurance file.

FAQ

What People Ask About Drying

Typically three to five days, longer for hardwood, plaster, or concrete.

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.

It is loud and warm. Closing off the drying area helps 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.
