Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Uniontown, PA
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
Most of what arrives here started a thousand feet higher.
With a ridge standing immediately above the town, a lot at the bottom receives whatever the mountain sheds as well as whatever lands on it, and the two need completely different work. Gutters and grading deal with the roof. A flow coming off a slope that size is dealt with by interception across the hillside above the building, laid out for that particular slope rather than as a standard detail.
There is more pipe under these streets than the population accounts for.
Which means there is more pipe per household than the population suggests and it is older than average, maintained by a tax base that has shrunk along with everything else. On the drainage side that shows as capacity that exists on the drawings and does not always exist in the ground. Asking the city what is actually known about a particular street is worth doing rather than assuming.
A dip has appeared in the yard and nothing was dug there.
In this part of the state gradual settlement of old ground disturbance is a real possibility and worth taking seriously rather than filling in. What matters is whether the depression keeps deepening across months, whether cracks are opening in a line, and whether the house has changed. There is state mapping and a claim process for it, both worth knowing about before rather than after.
