Sectors We Cover

Following a flood one of the most important aspects is making sure that your building is dry. There are a number of reasons why you should employ the right contractor to carry out this work but the most important are to reduce what is known as secondary damage and to ensure that mould and mildew cannot develop.

We know how to dry a building, Fast! Depending on the circumstances and size of the flood a number of different processes can be employed and some examples are below.
For our processes to work quickly it is important that we recognise and remove barriers to the drying process. These barriers are simply any material which is water resistant that may cover a material which is NOT water resistant and will retain water when an area floods.

An example of this is common kitchen or bathroom lino. Underneath the lino would be either wooden floorboards or concrete, both of which are porous materials and will hold water in the event of a flood. It is important therefore to strip these out before commencing the drying process as these will inhibit drying.
As part of our service a technical expert will visit your property weekly (or daily depending on the severity of the flood), to ensure that the building is drying correctly and to expectation. We use specialist moisture measurement equipment to provide a scientific assessment and result that we can track. This will be a figure which will tell us how wet a surface is in a number format. As the readings reduce we know that the surface is drying, it’s that simple but it allows us to keep the costs of drying to a minimum for our clients as we can off-hire our drying equipment quickly once the numbers show that drying is complete.

We also provide a flood report and once we have completed the building drying we can produce a drying certificate which will demonstrate that a professional contractor has verified that all drying work has been carried out correctly and completed allowing the redecoration and re-instatement work to commence.

Where a flat area has been flooded, and where water has not entered any recess areas (under floors or void spaces for example), the best method of drying is to install industrial Arida dehumidifiers and turbo-fan air units. This operation will circulate moisture from the surface of the flooded material into the air. The dehumidifiers then condense the wet air and remove the water content recycling ‘dry-air’.
