What Structural Drying Includes in Roslyn
A Roslyn crew uses meters during structural drying to find water beneath visible surfaces. Air movers and dehumidifiers then dry the exposed structure.
Water absorbed by building materials after visible water is gone can soak studs, subfloor, masonry, drywall and concealed cavities. Surface mopping leaves water inside these materials. A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.
A blocked drain may need a plumbing contractor. Sewage cleanup also needs protective handling, removal of contaminated porous materials and surface cleaning.

- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph studs before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
