Step 4: Drying and Dehumidification
Our Water Damage Restoration Process

Drying After Water Damage Restoration

When the bulk of the water has been removed from your property, there is still a lot more to be done. Water tends to sneak and hide just in carpet padding and behind walls, and any surface that isn’t properly dried will create a threat for mold growth.

What Happens After Water Removal?

After standing water is gone, it’s time to find the hidden pockets of water and begin drying the property. We do this by:

Creating a custom drying plan for your property. This includes mapping the wet areas, planning what and how many pieces of equipment that space needs and setting goals.
Removing wet carpet pad and finding hidden water behind walls. We use sophisticated equipment that detects moisture behind walls.
Setting professional drying equipment like air movers, dehumidifiers, and desiccants.
Daily monitoring takes place until your water clean up plan is complete.
Scientifically validated results. Professional water restoration companies have hard data to prove they did the job right.

High-speed air movers create airflow across walls, carpets, pads, and furniture, which accelerates the evaporation of moisture.
