What steps are involved in the drying and extraction process?
First, our restoration specialist conducts a fast on-site assessment. Then standing water is removed, followed by thorough extraction of moisture from materials. We deploy dehumidifiers and air movers, monitor humidity, and complete a final moisture check before concluding with cleaning and documentation.
How do I know if hidden moisture and mold are present?
Hidden moisture may reside behind walls or under floors. Our team uses moisture meters and infrared scanning to detect moisture pockets, monitor humidity levels, and identify elevated conditions that could lead to mold if left untreated.
