We had fans running for a week after a leak and it still smelled. The drying contractor found wet studs with a thermal camera and had them dry in four days with real equipment.

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.

Grains per pound, or GPP, measures how much water vapor is in the air. Lowering GPP in the drying area speeds evaporation from wet materials.

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.
