Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Brunswick, ME
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 Androscoggin is tidal here. Does a milldam still matter?
The dam is not the tide. The tide is the ocean arriving up the river as far as the falls. A milldam changes the terrace hydrology; the tide changes whether an October outfall can empty. A cellar on the flats can wet from a high tide with the dam behaving itself. Two structures, two jobs.
Waterville is also a Kennebec mill town. Why is this one about tide?
Waterville sits at Ticonic Falls, above tide. Brunswick sits where the Androscoggin is already brackish on its way to Merrymeeting Bay. October totals are similar. The outlet is not. Their mill cellars fail on river and ice. These fail on tide-locked clay. Same state, different end of the river.
The house is on the college terrace. Is the clay still involved?
Under the house, less so — that terrace is older ground. The problem there is October runoff onto the downhill wall and the same freeze-up timing. The NAS clay and the flats are the tidal story. The terrace is a hillside story that still takes the wettest month into winter.
