Why Structural Drying?
The primary goal of structural drying is to remove all moisture from your home but also to restore it to its original condition as much as possible. Using structural drying equipment like air movers and dehumidifiers, as well as consistently monitoring and measuring the humidity levels within the home, allows us to thoroughly dry out your floors after a leak in your kitchen, bathroom, or basement. Structural drying is also a non-invasive process that preserves the structural integrity of your home and minimizes the risk of mold and mildew growth.
Our MeticulousDrying Process
Whether we need to dry out the walls after an appliance leak or remove all moisture from a flooded basement, we follow these meticulous steps to ensure a completely dry and moisture-free home.
- Remove as much water as possible with our van-powered water extraction equipment.
- Use special instruments to accurately gauge the amount of moisture in surfaces like floors, walls, cabinets, and more.
- Set up air movers and dehumidifiers to begin drying out the affected areas.
- Move and adjust equipment as needed, based on moisture measurements taken throughout the structural drying process.
Cleaning & Sanitizing
If your personal belongings get wet, they need to be completely dried, have their appearance and functionality restored, and have all odors removed when possible. A water damage restoration service accomplishes this through the use of special cleaning techniques including antimicrobial applications, industrial air scrubbers, and fogging equipment. It’s common for this process to take place offsite, in which case the affected belongings are inventoried, carefully removed, thoroughly treated, and returned with equal care.
When Belongings or Materials Can’t Be Saved
Although we do our best to salvage your personal belongings and materials by using state-of-the-art methods and professional drying equipment, it’s important to be realistic in your expectations. Sometimes materials simply can’t be saved and need to be replaced instead. This includes items such as:
- Walls
- Floors
- Ductwork
- HVAC systems
- Shelving
- Drapes
- Clothing
When Structural Repairs Must Be Completed
Once the home is dry and all water damage cleanup is complete, it’s possible that more work may be necessary. If standing water did damage that structural drying couldn’t reverse, then it’s time to begin structural repairs. Five Star can provide you with a free estimate of the work that needs to be done, or you may choose your own general contractor to repair and rebuild your home. We can do everything from replacing a few drywall panels to completing a total rebuild project. Our company is also a VA-approved contractor, meaning we can build homes that must be constructed according to specific ADA or disability requirements.
