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.

Ask for proof of license and insurance before work begins.
Drying is usually billed by equipment per day plus monitoring visits. You get the rates and an estimated number of days in writing.

Good drying starts with a moisture map and ends with readings that match dry standard. Everything in between is about controlling air, temperature, and humidity.

Meters and thermal imaging trace water into hidden spots before drying begins.
Sealing off the wet area with plastic focuses the equipment and shortens drying time.
Injecting dry air through small holes can dry wall cavities without full flood cuts.
Floor mat systems and targeted airflow dry hardwood and plywood subfloors slowly enough to limit cupping and cracking.
Drying ends only when readings confirm the structure is dry, and you get the log for your records.

A local contractor calls back with an arrival time and brings meters, a thermal camera, and an initial set of drying equipment.
The pro maps moisture, records dry standard from unaffected areas, calculates equipment needs, and gives you a written estimate.
Drying continues with daily monitoring until readings confirm the job is done.
Closing up wet framing is how mold starts.
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 leakThey 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 dryingI liked seeing the daily log. Humidity numbers, wood readings, all of it. The adjuster liked it too.
Mariah S.Insurance drying documentationOur oak floor was cupping. They used floor mats and kept the drying slow and steady. The boards flattened back out.

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.
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.
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.
