After the torrential rains and storms of a few weeks go, we had a flood of calls for emergency dry-outs. Unfortunately, many homeowners do not have insurance against rain waters, but we were still able to work with them to help restore them to a pre-loss condition.
It seemed like non-stop action. We dried out 3 basements in less than 7 days! That, less than 56 hours per job, including setting up and breaking down our equipment, driving between jobs, etc. Actually, we average about 30 hours per job on a typical flood (if there is such a thing!)
The secret to our incredibly fast drying time is direct heat drying. Using our Thermal Energy System (TES) we use heat, as well as air movement and dehumidification, to rapidly evaporate even very tough to get at water (like the water that can get under the footing of walls) and dry it out in record time.
Most importantly though, we saved carpet, padding and drywall, reducing or eliminating the need for renovation work afterwards. We feel that this is the most important part of our services--saving our clients time and hassle, and saving their homes and valuables.
If your restorer isn't using direct heat drying, are they doing the best service possible for you?
