HOW WE HELP

When monitoring restoration efforts, our team collects regular temperature and relative humidity readings to determine specific humidity of the site.

A comparison can be drawn between the specific humidity of the exterior air, ambient interior air of the affected area, ambient interior air of the unaffected area, dehumidifier exhaust air, and the HVAC system to verify if a balanced drying system is in place and if effective drying is occurring.

In addition to the oversight of structural drying, we also document labor and materials daily, which serves as a point of reference when reviewing contractor invoices for fair and accurate billing following the completion of the project.
