Wall Drying
Not all walls are the same, which makes drying wet walls challenging. If dried improperly, mold can grow undetected behind the sheetrock. Fortunately, Power Dry has effective and thorough methods to extract moisture correctly.
When pipes in your home or business break, contact the team of technicians at Power Dry for immediate and timely removal. We’re a reputable water damage restoration company with experience reviving properties after water accidents happen.
Our Wet Wall Drying Process
For 40 years, we’ve provided wet wall drying that Kansas City homeowners trust. Power Dry specializes in residential and commercial water damage restoration. We’re the go-to company for wet wall drying projects large and small.
Step 1:
Locate and mark wet areas on walls
After the source has stopped leaking water, we’ll identify affected areas to target.
Step 2:
Dislodge molding and baseboards
That step is followed by removing baseboards and moldings in every room impacted by water.
Step 3:
Remove wet insulation
Moist insulation can present a health risk. To eliminate the possibility of mold, bacteria, and other pathogens, we’ll remove all wet insulation.
Step 4:
Install state-of-the-art drying equipment
Next, technicians will also use heavy-duty fans, dehumidifiers, and other equipment to help remove moisture from the walls and air.
Step 5:
Use a meter to monitor moisture
Power Dry professionals use tools like moisture meters and infrared imaging devices. This technology ensures the walls are completely dry.

What Are the Signs of Drywall Water Damage?
From spots of discoloration to cracked paint, there are several signs of water-damaged walls:
Water Stains
Yellow-brown stains normally mean a slow or inconsistent leak. These stains normally radiate out from a central point, with the darkest area in the center.
Discoloration
Walls may look darker, but they can be lighter depending on the paint color.
Peeling Wallpaper
Over time, water will cause paint or wallpaper to chip, flake, or peel.
Bubbles
Ballooning wallpaper or paint happens when the water soaks through from behind the drywall.
Sagging or Crumbling Walls
Larger amounts of water will cause walls to sag, buckle or even crumble. In most cases, replacing the drywall is the only option.
