Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Macon, GA
Commercial air movers and low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the structure, with daily moisture-meter readings logged for your insurer. Structural drying brings building materials back to a documented dry standard using air movers and dehumidifiers rather than surface evaporation alone. Moisture readings are logged through the process so the substrate, not just the surface, is confirmed dry before anything is rebuilt.

Frequently asked questions
December is the wettest month. How is that different from a June peak?
Nothing dries. A June storm is followed by heat that will pull moisture out of a crawlspace in a few days. A December front is followed by another front, low sun, and a cold clay floor. The same five inches does more work in winter because it stays.
The Ocmulgee is down the hill. Does a sandhill house still care?
The river sets the outlet for the whole contact. When it is high in winter, perched water in the sand has nowhere to go and sits against downhill foundations. A house that never sees overbank flow can still wet from that backed-up perched layer.
The plastic in the crawlspace is in pieces. Worth replacing in this climate?
Yes, because winter is long and the clay is cold. A continuous vapor barrier is one of the few things that actually cuts off the ground as a moisture source when the air will not dry anything. Pieces of old visqueen are not a barrier; they are a trip hazard.
