New York structural drying

There's a reason structural drying in New York is mostly handled by small shops, not the big franchises: nobody beats a guy who knows the housing stock and answers his phone. Three things you can count on: we show up when we say we will, we quote before we work, and we don't pad the bill.

Scope of work

Drying after extraction is what determines whether your loss becomes a $5,000 cleanup or a $25,000 demolition-and-rebuild. Inadequate drying = mold = much bigger problem.

We size drying equipment using IICRC psychrometric calculations: cubic footage of affected space, current moisture content of materials, target dryness, and grain depression of the air.

Typical setup: 1 dehumidifier per 800-1,200 cubic feet, plus air movers at 1 per 50-100 sqft of wet surface. Equipment runs continuously for 3-7 days depending on class of loss.

Daily moisture readings track progress against target. Once materials hit target dryness, equipment comes out and reconstruction can begin.

Notes on New York housing stock

Property managers across New York keep us on speed-dial because we're predictable. Same crews, same pricing, no surprises.

On bigger jobs we'll bring two techs. On simpler ones, just one — fewer hands, faster billing.

Sample job

Got a call last month from a downtown New York home — any era build. Symptom: hardwood floor cupping after a slow leak. Cause: 3 weeks of moisture trapped in subfloor. Specialty hardwood drying mats with desiccant, 14 days of monitored drying, 70% of floor saved without replacement, all done in in one trip, billed flat-rate at $1375.
