- How do I know when my property is completely dry?
When water damage occurs in your home, the water can be absorbed into the drywall (sheetrock), baseboards, sub-flooring, carpeting, etc. Drying these materials effectively requires high velocity air movers to accelerate the drying process, before mould and other more serious problems occur. The use of professional-standard dehumidifiers are also necessary for removing the excess moisture to create conditions for efficient drying and prevent further damage to your property.
Items not recommended or permitted for storage include: All items required to continue your business activities at a temporary location, cash and cheques, sensitive business documents or records, sensitive electronic data, checkbooks, company seals, valuable artworks or collections, flammables, weapons and ammunition.
Professional testing with specialized equipment is the correct way to determine if your business property and contents are completely dry. Touch alone may be a false indicator.
