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 Houma crews monitor daily until standard.
Our Structural Drying Process
Baseline Readings
Before placing a single fan, we measure moisture content in walls, floors, and ceilings. Thermal cameras reveal moisture behind surfaces. This data determines the drying plan.
Calculated Drying Setup
Equipment load calculated to IICRC S500 standards. Dehumidifier capacity matched to the space. Air movers positioned for optimal air circulation across wet surfaces.
Monitor & Adjust
Daily site visits with calibrated instruments. Pin and pinless readings, relative humidity checks, grain depression monitoring. Equipment gets moved or added based on progress.

About Our Houma Structural Drying Services
Most residential drying in Houma takes 3-5 days. Commercial properties with concrete subfloors take longer since concrete releases moisture slowly regardless of equipment. We track drying curves per material type with daily updates. Your insurance adjuster gets detailed drying logs with date-stamped readings showing when each area reached dry standard.
We've dried everything from single-room pipe bursts to entire commercial buildings in Houma. 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 (877) 701-8886.
