Property owners in Grand Ronde can call (503) 224-3149 day or night when water damage needs drying. Service also covers Willamina, Sheridan and Amity, with equipment sized to the space.
Specialized Desiccant Dehumidification in Grand Ronde, OR
Crawl Space Drying
Water is removed from the crawl space first, then desiccant drying brings humidity down so the framing can dry.
Construction Drying Services
New construction can trap moisture in concrete, drywall mud and framing. Desiccant units help dry the building before finishes go in.
Basement Dehumidification
Basement concrete and framing release water slowly. Desiccant drying keeps humidity low so they can dry in a reasonable time.
Water Damage Dehumidification
After a leak or flood, dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air so wet drywall, wood and carpet can dry out.
Emergency Dehumidification
Equipment is sized to the space on the first visit and adjusted each day based on readings.
Symptoms Requiring Desiccant Dehumidification in Grand Ronde

A hygrometer that keeps reading high humidity days after a leak shows the space is not drying.
Strong Damp Odor in Rooms
A damp smell that stays in a room after cleanup means materials there are still holding moisture.
