A couple of decades ago, experts in the flood recovery and water damage restoration industry were mostly just concerned with drying out carpets and other floor coverings. But beginning in 1995’s, our industry began to discover significant new consequences of structural water damage, like mold, damage to electronics infrastructure, and other health risks.

Why Use Our Structural Drying Services?

Water can soak internally more than 20 centimeters into porous building materials like drywall construction, and even concrete supports, flooring & framework in as little as 8 hours!
