Structural Drying and Dehumidification in Northridge, California
After the completion of Phase 1, sub floors and walls are visually inspected in Phase 2. Carpet and pads are lifted to determine need for removal. Moisture detectors and hygrometers are used to ascertain the extent of moisture saturation as most building materials, are porous and drywall and wood will hold considerable water. Any retained water not fully dried, will cause these particular materials to either swell, warp or bow, encouraging the growth of mold.
Flood Brothers’ water Remediation and Restoration Team will carefully manage both indoor temperature and internal relative humidity using industrial high-speed air movers to create a calculated airflow across walls, carpets, pads, and furniture, which accelerates the evaporation of any moisture. Dehumidifiers are used to remove the remaining moisture to remove any water retained within the building.
