Ask for proof of license and insurance before work begins.
You will see equipment day rates and an estimated drying timeline before setup.

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.

Meters and thermal imaging trace water into hidden spots before drying begins.
Sealing off the wet area with plastic focuses the equipment and shortens drying time.
Small holes behind baseboards let injection systems push dry air into wall cavities, which can avoid tearing out drywall that is otherwise sound.
Floor mat systems and targeted airflow dry hardwood and plywood subfloors slowly enough to limit cupping and cracking.
Drying ends only when readings confirm the structure is dry, and you get the log for your records.
Tell the dispatcher when the leak happened and what has been done so far.
A local contractor calls back with an arrival time and brings meters, a thermal camera, and an initial set of drying equipment.
You get a moisture map, a dry standard baseline, and a written drying plan with costs.
Equipment runs with daily readings and adjustments until every material reaches dry standard, then it is removed and the log is handed over.
Closing up wet framing is how mold starts.
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.

Kevin Y.Wall cavity dryingI liked seeing the daily log. Humidity numbers, wood readings, all of it. The adjuster liked it too.
Mariah S.Insurance drying documentationOur oak floor was cupping. They used floor mats and kept the drying slow and steady. The boards flattened back out.

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.
It is the baseline moisture reading of dry materials in your house. Wet materials are dried until they match.
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.
