Remove the standing water

Trace where the water went
Water climbs drywall above the visible stain. The technician measures up the wall to find where the moisture stops.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Drywall that wicked water is cut above the wet edge so the framing can dry. The crew removes only what the readings call for.
-
Dry the structure and verify
Dehumidifiers and air movers run around the clock. LGR or desiccant units pull moisture out of the cool basement air.
