When a storm strikes, water can enter through damaged shingles, flashing, or skylights, saturating attic insulation and drywall. Using thermal imaging and moisture meters, we locate all hidden wet areas before they cause structural decay. Our technicians then deploy high-velocity air movers and LGR dehumidifiers to pull moisture from wood and drywall.
Psychrometric monitoring is critical during the drying process. We track temperature, humidity, and vapor pressure to adjust equipment placement and ensure optimal drying conditions. This scientific approach reduces drying time and prevents secondary damage like mold growth or wood rot.
Prevention starts with a thorough inspection of your roof and gutters. We recommend checking for loose or missing shingles, sealing roof penetrations, and cleaning downspouts before the rainy season. After extraction, we apply antimicrobial treatments to kill bacteria and inhibit mold spores from germinating.
Insurance claims can be stressful, but we help document every step. Our team provides detailed moisture maps, drying logs, and photographs to support your claim. We work directly with adjusters to ensure your policy covers the necessary repairs.
Our equipment includes truck-mounted extractors for heavy flooding and submersible pumps for standing water. For crawlspaces, we use air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers to dry hard-to-reach areas. Every job follows IICRC S500 standards for water damage restoration.
Beyond drying, we handle tear-out and replacement of damaged materials. This includes removing wet insulation, cutting out affected drywall, and re-installing with new vapor barriers. We also address any mold issues that may have started before our arrival.
Finally, we provide a detailed walkthrough and maintenance tips to reinforce your roof and drainage system. Our goal is not just to recover from disaster but to strengthen your property against future storms, saving you time, money, and stress.
