Step 4: Drying and Dehumidification
Our Water Damage Restoration Process

Floors and walls may appear dry after the excess water has been removed. Do not let this fool you. a quick inspection will reveal they are still very wet. Most all building materials are porous and therefore retain water. Wood, drywall, and flooring materials can break down, warp, or cause mold damage if the retained water is not addressed.



Drying / Dehumidification

Our Professionals will use temperature, relative humidity, and room measurements to validate the number of dehumidifiers and air movers needed to dry your home or business.

  • Use Dehumidification Equipment
  • Use Monitoring Equipment to Track Progress

Monitor Floor and Walls

We monitor the drying process by checking moisture levels.

  • Monitor Floors
  • Monitor Walls

Drying Equipment

  • High-speed air movers create airflow across carpets, pads, walls, and furniture, which accelerates the evaporation of moisture.
  • Industrial-grade dehumidifiers help prevent secondary water damage like warping and swelling of walls, floors, and furniture.
