Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Highland Park, TX
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
Something keeps getting into the line to the street.
Old pipe beneath a mature canopy is nearly certain to have roots in it, because they follow the moisture escaping from a joint and then open it further. Cutting them restores flow for a season or two without addressing why they got in. A camera survey shows how much of the run is affected, and that is what decides between another cleaning and lining the pipe.
The creek rose and there had been very little rain here.
It gathers from ground well beyond the town's boundary, most of which is built out, so it responds to rain that nobody here experienced. It also has almost no room in its section to take a rise, so the level jumps rather than spreading. Following the gauge upstream is far more useful than looking out of the window.
The creek runs through the middle of town in a stone channel.
It does, worked into that form a century ago, and a walled reach behaves differently from a natural one: it has a fixed capacity, it cannot spread, and the water goes up rather than out when there is more of it. The stonework is also old, and what happens if a section fails is a separate question from rainfall.
