Drying, stage by stage

Sequence beats equipment on a wet building. The stages below come from IICRC S500 - all of them the contractor's work, each one setting the size of the next.

  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.

What drying a building in Newnan involves

When a floor is wet in Newnan, the call routes to an independent local contractor for water damage restoration, across town and out to White Oak and Sherwood Forest. A tornado opened roofs across this town in one night, and the repairs were done fast and all at once.

What the houses are made of

Roughly 5,178 of Newnan's 18,160 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 2004; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. With a median of 2004 and under three in ten houses older, a large part of the stock had its roof replaced in a single concentrated period, by crews working at volume on a great many properties in the same weeks.

Drying conditions

December brings 6.01 of the 55.5 inches Newnan sees in a normal year, and July averages 78.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at NEWNAN 2.6 W 3.3 miles away and temperatures at NEWNAN 7 WNW 8.1 miles away. December is the wettest month at 6.01 inches of a 56-inch year and only one month averages a freeze, so the wet season is mild and long; a roof detail done in haste is tested continuously rather than occasionally.

How water losses tend to end in Newnan

  • A great many roofs of the same age and the same haste, so faults repeat across the town
  • Work done under pressure, so flashings and penetrations are where corners were cut
  • Damage to the structure beneath that was covered rather than repaired, so it is still there

Water Damage Restoration services in Newnan

Six water services lead and two mold services follow, because mold is the end of a drying job rather than a separate one. Independent Newnan contractors do both.

Frequently asked questions

Why does a mass reroofing cause trouble later?

Because of how it was done rather than that it was done. A whole town needing roofs in the same month means crews working at speed, and what suffers is the slow work: step flashing, valleys, and anything that had to be cut and formed on site.

What was left underneath?

Sometimes more than anyone realized. A roof that was struck hard enough to lose its covering has frequently taken damage to the decking and the framing as well, and in a fast replacement that gets covered over rather than opened up and dealt with.

Is the work still under any warranty?

It is worth establishing, and it often is. Material and workmanship warranties from that period may still have years to run, and where a contractor is still trading, a documented defect in a flashing detail is a conversation worth having before paying twice.
