Structural Drying Questions Answered

Most jobs take three to five days. Dense materials like hardwood, plaster, and concrete can take a week or longer.

Consumer equipment is too weak to dry framing quickly enough to prevent mold.

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.

Yes. Air movers and dehumidifiers are noisy and add heat. Most people can stay home, but you may want to close doors to the drying area 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.
