Science-Based Structural Drying in Eldorado, IL

The visible water is gone, the carpet looks fine, and someone told you a couple of fans would finish it off. But the studs behind the drywall are still reading wet, the subfloor is holding moisture, and the house smells a little off. Structural drying is how you get the framing, subfloor, and walls truly dry before anything gets closed up.

The work involved

What Structural Drying Includes

The goal is simple: get every wet material back to the moisture level of similar dry materials in the house, and prove it with readings.

M

Finding All the Wet Areas

Meters and thermal imaging trace water into hidden spots before drying begins.

C

Containment for Faster Drying

Plastic containment creates a smaller drying chamber, so dehumidifiers work on a defined space and drying moves faster.

I

Drying Inside Walls Without Demo

Small holes behind baseboards let injection systems push dry air into wall cavities, which can avoid tearing out drywall that is otherwise sound.

F

Floor Drying Systems

Floor mat systems and targeted airflow dry hardwood and plywood subfloors slowly enough to limit cupping and cracking.

V

Verification to Dry Standard

Drying ends only when readings confirm the structure is dry, and you get the log for your records.

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

It is loud and warm. Closing off the drying area helps at night.

Top rated local Structural Drying specialists in Eldorado, IL
Eldorado (/ˌɛldəˈreɪdoʊ, -də/) is a city in Saline County, Illinois, United States. The population was 4,122 at the 2010 census, with a 1980 peak of 5,198. Although the city's name is spelled as if it were Spanish, the name was originally "Eldereado" or “Elder-Reado” (depending on the source)—a combination of the last names of the town's two founders, Judge Samuel Elder, his son William, grandson Francis Marion, and neighbor Joseph Read, and his brother William. According to legend, a signpainter for the railroad painted the name "Eldorado" on the train depot; as a result, the spelling and pronunciation (el-do-RAY-doh) was forever changed.
