Recent service example
Got a call last month from a downtown Tulsa 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 the same visit, billed flat-rate at $1012.
What we cover
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.
How Tulsa jobs differ
Tulsa has a wide mix of housing — from pre-war brick to last-year new builds. We work on all of it; the diagnostic just takes a different shape.
