Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Kokomo, IN
Commercial dehumidifiers and air movers remove moisture from the structure, with daily readings logged from the material itself for claim documentation. 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 creek is a mile away on the map and it flooded here.
It loops. A meandering channel through a built area comes back on itself several times, so two neighborhoods that seem to be nowhere near each other front the same water at different points along it. That is why the flood mapping looks more complicated here than the geography suggests, and why it is worth reading rather than reasoning from the street layout.
A month's rain in an evening. Is that normal?
It happens here often enough to plan around and no drainage arrangement anywhere is built for it. Summer storms stop moving and repeat over the same few square miles for hours, putting down several times a monthly figure in one night. The number worth designing against is what a single evening can produce, which bears no relation to any average.
It never ran anywhere. It simply covered the ground.
With hardly any gradient to give it a direction, water lies as a broad shallow sheet and stays until it drains away slowly or evaporates. How long it stood matters far more than how deep it got. It also explains why drainage work here disappoints so often, since a pipe wants receiving ground that is genuinely lower and across this landscape that is frequently nowhere.
