Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Boise, ID

The opening is closed, the water is extracted, materials floodwater touched come out, and the structure is dried and rebuilt in that order. The opening is closed first, with tarps or board-up, so the building stops taking on water. Floodwater is extracted, and the porous materials it touched come out rather than dry, since it crossed ground outside. The structure is dried and re-read, and the rebuild waits until the readings and the roof both allow it.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a basement take to dry here after a pipe splits?

A few days for the drywall and framing once the wet finishes are out. Boise's air is dry in every season, so a sealed basement with air movers and a dehumidifier reaches the standard quickly. The concrete floor is the slow part if the leak ran for days before the thaw revealed it, and it is read daily until it holds.

The crawl space is wet in summer with no rain. Where is the water from?

Often irrigation. Lawn lines and the canal seepage that feeds the valley in the growing season wet the ground under a crawl space when nothing has fallen from the sky. The contractor removes the soaked insulation, seals and dries the crawl, and reads the subfloor from below, and the scope names the line or the grading that has to change.

Can wet drywall be dried in place in this dry air?

Often, when the water was clean and it is reached within a day. The dry high-desert air lets a sealed room pull moisture out of drywall before it softens, so the contractor reads the sheet and dries it in place when the numbers fall fast. Drywall that wicked seepage or stood in water still comes out.
