Step 4: Drying and Dehumidification
Our Water Damage Restoration Process
After water removal, floors and walls may seem dry, but they retain moisture, especially porous materials like drywall and wood. This retained moisture can lead to warping, swelling, or even mold damage.
SERVPRO of Memorial West, NW employs advanced techniques, moisture reading tools like thermal cameras and other professional equipment to effectively extract remaining moisture to complete the drying and dehumidification process. Using specialized equipment such as industrial air movers and dehumidifiers, we target water retention within building materials and inaccessible areas. Our team carefully monitors progress using moisture meters until materials reach acceptable IICRC drying standards. Despite appearances, floors and walls may still be wet to the touch due to the porous nature of most building materials. This continued moisture poses risks of structural damage and mold growth.
