Our Scientific Drying Process in Ermington

1

Deep Moisture Detection

We use thermal imaging and non-invasive moisture meters to create a 'moisture map' of your Ermington property, identifying exactly where water is trapped behind surfaces.

2

Strategic Air Movement

Industrial-grade air movers are positioned across your Ermington site to create high-velocity airflow, promoting the evaporation of moisture from structural materials.

3

Advanced Dehumidification

We deploy LGR (Low Grain Refrigerant) dehumidifiers in your Ermington property to pull water vapor out of the air, maintaining an ultra-dry environment that pulls moisture out of the structure.

4

Structural Drying FAQs for Ermington Property Owners

How long does structural drying take in Ermington?
Most properties reach dry standards within 3-5 days. Dense materials like concrete or multi-layered floors in Ermington may take slightly longer.
Do I need to stay in my Ermington property during crying?
You can, but the equipment is loud and generates heat. Our Ermington team can advise if it's better to stay elsewhere during the most intense phase.
Will the equipment increase my Ermington power bill?
Yes, but we provide highly efficient equipment to minimize costs and provide the documentation for your Ermington property records.
Is it possible for a wall to look dry but still be wet inside?
Absolutely. Drywall can feel dry to the touch while the insulation and framing behind it in your Ermington property are still saturated.
What happens if my Ermington building isn't dried properly?
Hidden moisture leads to mold growth, structural rot, and reduced property value. Our Ermington service ensures this doesn't happen.
Can I just use my ceiling fans to dry the room in Ermington?
Ceiling fans move air around but don't create the high-velocity airflow needed to pull moisture out of structural materials. Our industrial Ermington air movers are hundreds of times more effective for deep drying.
What is 'secondary damage' and how do you prevent it in Ermington?
Secondary damage is caused by high humidity, leading to mold and warped wood in areas that weren't even wet. We use commercial dehumidifiers in your Ermington property to control the air and stop this from happening.
Do you need to remove the baseboards for structural drying in Ermington?
Often, yes. Removing baseboards in your Ermington property allows us to drill small 'breather holes' into the wall cavity, allowing air to circulate and dry the studs and insulation safely.
How do you know when my Ermington property is finally dry?
We don't guess—we use the 'Dry Standard'. We compare the moisture readings in the wet areas of your Ermington property to a dry area of the same building to ensure they are identical before removing our equipment.
Is structural drying safe for my antiques and electronics in Ermington?
Controlled drying is much safer than leaving them in a humid environment. Our Ermington technicians monitor the humidity carefully to dry the structure without damaging your delicate belongings.
