After water damage, your structure needs to get truly dry — not surface-dry. Drywall can feel dry while holding 40% moisture inside. Subfloor looks fine while plywood is saturated underneath. We use pin meters, pinless meters, and thermal imaging because instruments don't lie. Our Athens crews monitor daily until standard.
Our Structural Drying Process
Moisture Mapping
Pin meters for interior wall moisture, pinless for floors and ceilings, thermal imaging for behind-wall detection. We document baseline readings for every affected material.
Calculated Drying Setup
We calculate the number of dehumidifiers and air movers needed based on room volume, material load, and GA's ambient conditions. Equipment gets placed for maximum airflow efficiency.
Daily Monitoring
Daily site visits with calibrated instruments. Pin and pinless readings, relative humidity checks, grain depression monitoring. Equipment gets moved or added based on progress.

Why Choose 24/7 Water Damage for Structural Drying?
Large Equipment Fleet
We own enough dehumidifiers and air movers to handle multiple concurrent drying jobs across Athens. No waiting for equipment delivery — it's staged and ready to deploy.
Specialty Drying Systems
Wall cavities, hardwood floors, concrete slabs — each needs different drying approaches. We have Injectidry systems, mat drying setups, and desiccant units for special cases.
Thermal Imaging Verification
We verify drying completion with thermal cameras — they reveal any remaining moisture that meters might miss. Final sweep before sign-off ensures nothing was left wet.
Calculated Equipment Loads
Equipment placement based on room volume, material types, and ambient conditions — not guesswork. We use psychrometric calculations to size the job correctly from day one.

About Our Athens Structural Drying Services
Our drying process follows IICRC S500 standards. We calculate the air exchange rate for each space accounting for GA's ambient humidity, then position LGR dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers for optimal airflow. For wall cavities, we use Injectidry systems that force air behind drywall without removal — saving demolition costs.
We've dried everything from single-room pipe bursts to entire commercial buildings in Athens. Our fleet includes LGR dehumidifiers, desiccant units, centrifugal air movers, Injectidry wall systems, and data loggers. Whatever your structure needs, we have the equipment. Call (866) 993-3605.
