Why This Line for Drying Work

The contractor records temperature, relative humidity, GPP, and material moisture each day, then adjusts equipment based on the numbers.

Insured contractors

Ask for proof of license and insurance before work begins.

Written drying estimate

Drying is usually billed by equipment per day plus monitoring visits. You get the rates and an estimated number of days in writing.

FAQ

What People Ask About Drying

Why can't I just use household fans and a dehumidifier?

Consumer equipment is too weak to dry framing quickly enough to prevent mold.

What does dry standard mean?

Dry standard is the normal moisture reading of the same type of material in an unaffected part of the home. Drying is complete when wet materials match it.

What are grains per pound in water damage drying?

GPP is a measure of moisture in the air. Lower GPP means faster drying.

Is the drying equipment loud?

Yes. Air movers and dehumidifiers are noisy and add heat. Most people can stay home, but you may want to close doors to the drying area at night.

Is A Water Damage the drying contractor?

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service that connects you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who perform the drying.
