Serving Anderson
Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Anderson, IN
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
The river stayed in bank. Why did the cellar take water anyway?
Till. June rain sits in the upper soil rather than sinking, and a basement is a hole in that perched layer. Overbank flow is the obvious event. The quieter one is seepage with the White River still inside its banks, and treating every wet cellar as a flood misses those houses.
Irondale is blocks from the channel. Is the river still involved?
Through the pipes, often. The mill streets drain toward the river, and when the river is high the outlet is already full. A June cell then has no unused capacity. The stain shows up in a cellar drain that was supposed to be an outlet.
A 1961 basement on till. Was it built to drain?
Rarely. That era poured walls against the soil and trusted the grade. There is often no tile and no waterproofing on the buried face, so the wall is a dam. The fix is drainage at the footing, not a coating on the inside.
