Step 4: Drying and Dehumidification
Our Water Damage Restoration Process
After extracting the excess water, it is important to recognize that the floors and walls may still feel dry to the touch, but they retain moisture. This can lead to material degradation, warping, and potential mold damage, as most building materials are porous.
To restore your property effectively, our professionals employ a drying process that takes into account room measurements, temperature, and relative humidity. By utilizing the optimal number of air movers and dehumidifiers, we create the ideal environment for drying. Moisture meters are used to monitor the progress until the materials reach the desired drying goals.
Drying Process:
- Use Dehumidification Equipment: Industrial-grade dehumidifiers are utilized to prevent secondary water damage, such as swelling and warping of floors, walls, and furniture.
- Implement Monitoring Equipment: Specialized monitoring tools are employed to track the drying process.
- Monitor Floors and Walls: Regular moisture level checks ensure thorough drying.
Drying Equipment:
- Industrial-Grade Dehumidifiers: These powerful devices remove excess moisture from the air and affected surfaces, safeguarding against further damage.
- High-Speed Air Movers: Strategically positioned air movers facilitate efficient airflow, accelerating moisture evaporation from walls, carpets, pads, and furniture.
With advanced drying equipment and careful monitoring, we ensure the effective removal of moisture, minimizing the risk of additional harm to your property.
