Step 1:
Locate and mark wet areas on walls.

It is not always possible to locate water inside your walls by touch or sight alone. We use specialized moisture detection equipment that will let us see where water is hiding inside the walls of your home.

We then mark the spots so that our team can get on to removal. Spots are marked with low-tack stickers to avoid further damage to your walls.

Materials like gypsum wallboard are usually able to be restored well without permanent damage. Handled promptly, your wall should retain all of its original strength.

Step 2:
Install wall drying system.

We then begin to install the wall drying system. We carefully remove the baseboard to give us access to the inside of the wall.

Then, we drill channels that can be used to install our wall drying system. By drilling at floor level, we can help prevent more expensive repairs. Drill holes can be easily concealed when the baseboard is replaced after drying is complete.

Our dryers increase airflow behind the wall, which can help speed evaporation. The drying process can take anywhere from several hours to a few days. By going into the wall in several places, we can ensure that your walls are dried evenly.
