A room can look and feel dry to the touch while moisture meters still show trapped moisture inside wall cavities or under flooring.
Our Sturtevant, WI drying plans start with thermal imaging to map exactly where moisture is hiding.
We calculate drying requirements using temperature and humidity data, not a flat per-room rule.
Low Grain Refrigerant dehumidifiers pull significantly more moisture from the air than consumer-grade units.
We map hidden moisture with thermal imaging before finalizing equipment placement.
Daily logs give you and your insurer verifiable proof of progress, not a technician's word.
Here's the full scope of a Structural Drying And Dehumidification job in Sturtevant, from initial scan to final verification.
The assessment sets the baseline every later reading gets measured against.
Thermal cameras scan walls, ceilings, and flooring to reveal moisture invisible to the naked eye.
Dehumidifier capacity is matched to the calculated moisture load for that specific space.
A technician returns daily to take moisture readings and log progress against the drying plan.
We adjust drying speed for sensitive materials like hardwood and cabinetry to prevent secondary damage.
We provide a written verification report confirming the structure has reached dry standard.
We ask enough to bring the right instruments on the first visit.
A technician arrives with thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters ready to assess.
We complete the psychrometric assessment and thermal scan, then provide a written drying plan and quote.
A written verification report backs the final sign-off.
"The thermal imaging found moisture behind a wall that looked completely fine from the outside. Would have missed it otherwise." — Julian R.
"They came back every single day to take readings and showed me the numbers improving. Felt like real science, not guesswork." — Monique T.
"Our hardwood floor didn't warp because they slowed the drying process down specifically for it." — Grant P.
Visual appearance doesn't confirm dryness — instrument readings are needed to catch what's not visible.
It's a calculated approach using temperature and humidity data to determine exact equipment needs, rather than guessing.
Typical drying time is 3-5 days for standard materials, longer for sensitive ones like hardwood.
You'll see the actual numbers improve each day through documented logs.
We adjust the drying plan whenever sensitive materials are involved.
A stall in the daily logs triggers a plan review rather than simply leaving equipment running unchanged.
Sturtevant is within our core structural drying response zone.
