Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Asbury Park, NJ
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
Sand should drain well.
It drains superbly until it reaches the water table, and here that is close under the surface. Once the sand below is saturated there is nowhere for the next inch to go, and it backs up rather than soaking away. Good drainage in the top few feet and a high water table beneath is a combination that misleads people constantly.
The lake at the end of the street looks ornamental.
It is also the receiving water for a good deal of the storm drainage, which makes its level operationally important. When it is up after a wet spell the outfalls into it lose their fall and the streets above drain slowly or not at all. What looks like a park feature is functionally part of the drainage system.
Does a coastal storm matter away from the beachfront?
It does, because surge raises the level in the lakes and the outfalls across the whole city rather than only at the shoreline. Properties several streets inland lose their drainage outlet at the same moment heavy rain is falling. The damage inland is usually rainfall that could not leave rather than seawater that arrived.
