A room can look and feel dry to the touch while moisture meters still show trapped moisture inside wall cavities or under flooring.
Our Sunset, ME drying plans start with thermal imaging to map exactly where moisture is hiding.
We calculate drying requirements using temperature and humidity data, not a flat per-room rule.
Low Grain Refrigerant dehumidifiers pull significantly more moisture from the air than consumer-grade units.
Thermal imaging cameras reveal moisture patterns behind walls and under flooring that aren't visible to the eye.
You receive documented daily readings showing the structure actually getting drier.
Structural drying is a distinct phase with its own methodology, separate from initial extraction, and here's how our Sunset, ME crews run it.
Psychrometric formulas determine exactly how much equipment capacity the space requires.
Thermal cameras scan walls, ceilings, and flooring to reveal moisture invisible to the naked eye.
We position air movers to create directed airflow across wet surfaces based on the assessment.
A technician returns daily to take moisture readings and log progress against the drying plan.
Hardwood floors and built-in cabinetry require slower, more controlled drying to avoid warping.
Final verification compares closing readings against the material-specific dry standard, not a general guess.
Tell our Sunset, ME dispatcher about the current condition so we can prepare the right diagnostic equipment.
Equipment for psychrometric assessment is standard on every drying dispatch.
You'll see the calculated plan and cost before drying equipment goes down.
A written verification report backs the final sign-off.
"The thermal imaging found moisture behind a wall that looked completely fine from the outside. Would have missed it otherwise." — Julian R.
"They came back every single day to take readings and showed me the numbers improving. Felt like real science, not guesswork." — Monique T.
"Our hardwood floor didn't warp because they slowed the drying process down specifically for it." — Grant P.
A room can look dry on the surface while moisture meters still detect trapped moisture inside materials.
Psychrometrics uses scientific formulas to size the drying plan to the actual moisture load.
Most jobs run 3-5 days, though hardwood and cabinetry may need longer, more controlled drying.
You'll see the actual numbers improve each day through documented logs.
Yes, we use slower, controlled drying specifically calibrated for hardwood to prevent warping.
We reassess the plan, since stalled readings usually mean equipment placement or capacity needs adjusting, not just more time.
Sunset is within our core structural drying response zone.
