How a wet building gets dry again

The order matters more than the equipment. These are the stages the IICRC S500 drying standard describes; each is the contractor's work, and each decides how much of the next there is.

  1. Step 1: Stop and remove

    The source is shut off, then free water is pumped and extracted. Every hour water stands, it climbs further into drywall and subfloor, so this stage sets the size of everything after it.

  2. Step 2: Open and map

    Baseboard, wet drywall and soaked insulation come out, and meters read the material behind them. The wet edge is marked where the moisture stops, not where the stain does.

  3. Step 3: Dry to a number

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a sealed system, and the same points are read daily. The equipment leaves when the readings reach the dry standard for that material, not on a set day.

  4. Step 4: Close up

    Rebuild starts only after the structure is confirmed dry. Insulation, drywall and finishes go back over an assembly that will not feed anything later.

Inside a Coral Springs drying job

From Kensington Commons to the middle of town, water damage restoration calls in Coral Springs go to an independent local contractor. Nearly every house here has a screened enclosure over the patio, bolted through the wall in a couple of dozen places.

Construction you will find here

The typical Coral Springs house dates to 1987, with close to three fifths of the stock (61.2 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1980s work. Around a median of 1987 with just over six in ten houses older, the standard back elevation carries a large aluminum screen enclosure, and the frame of it is anchored into the block wall of the house along its whole height.

Conditions for drying

September brings 8.13 of the 56.5 inches Coral Springs sees in a normal year, and August averages 84.1 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at FT LAUDERDALE EXECUTIVE AP, 7.5 miles away. No month here averages a freeze and the daily swing runs from the high fifties to the low nineties across the year, so the aluminum expands and contracts against the block every day of its life; a fixing worked like that for thirty years loosens in its hole.

What tends to go wrong in Coral Springs

  • Two dozen anchors driven through an outside wall, so there are that many openings in it
  • Metal moving against masonry daily, so the seal around each anchor works loose over time
  • A structure nobody thinks of as part of the house, so its fixings are never looked at

Frequently asked questions

How does a screen enclosure let water into the house?

Through its anchors. The frame is bolted into the block wall in a great many places, and each of those is a hole driven through the outside of the building. The sealant around them was put on when the cage went up and nothing has been done to it since.

Why do the anchors loosen?

Because the aluminum never stops moving. It expands through a ninety-degree afternoon and contracts overnight, every day, and the block it is fixed to does not move with it. Thirty years of that works each anchor in its hole until there is a gap around it.

Is the cage worth checking after a wall dries out?

It is the first thing to look at, and it is usually skipped because the enclosure is treated as garden furniture rather than as part of the building. Resealing the anchor line is inexpensive and it is the only thing that stops the wall taking water again.
