Structural Drying in Capitan, NM That Reaches Dry Standard

After a leak, the surfaces dry fast while the structure stays wet. Framing, subfloors, and wall cavities hold moisture you cannot see. Structural drying uses measured airflow and dehumidification to bring those materials back to normal moisture levels.

Structural Drying Jobs, In Their Words

A week of box fans did nothing. The pro found wet framing with infrared and dried it properly in four days.

Laura F.Hidden wet framing after leak

They drilled small holes behind the baseboards and pumped dry air into the walls. We did not have to tear out any drywall.

Kevin Y.Wall cavity drying

I liked seeing the daily log. Humidity numbers, wood readings, all of it. The adjuster liked it too.

Mariah S.Insurance drying documentation

Our oak floor was cupping. They used floor mats and kept the drying slow and steady. The boards flattened back out.

Common questions

Common Structural Drying Questions

Typically three to five days, longer for hardwood, plaster, or concrete.

Household units move far less air and cannot reach the low humidity levels needed to pull moisture out of framing and subfloors. Drying slowly also gives mold time to grow.

It is the baseline moisture reading of dry materials in your house. Wet materials are dried until they match.

Grains per pound, or GPP, measures how much water vapor is in the air. Lowering GPP in the drying area speeds evaporation from wet materials.

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

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