Signs to look for

When to call us for dehumidification

Our restoration team explains it this way: If you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

Condensation on windows, mirrors or cold pipes

Our restoration team explains it this way: Condensation forms when humid air touches a surface at or below its dew point.

The room feels muggy even though the floor is dry

A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: A dry looking surface with heavy air means moisture is still moving out of the materials.

Your household dehumidifier fills up and the room stays damp

Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Small units are rated for a few pints per day at comfortable conditions.

Paper, cardboard and labels go limp in nearby rooms

Our restoration team uses this point to organize the work: Paper responds to humidity faster than almost anything else in a building.

A musty smell that is strongest in closets and cabinets

We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: Closed spaces have the least air exchange and the highest relative humidity.

White powdery bloom on block or concrete

We make this part easier to understand: Moisture moving through masonry carries minerals to the surface and leaves them behind.

What happens

How we handle dehumidification

Our restoration team adjusts the work to what you can see is wet, where the water reached, and the materials that can be saved.

Temperature and humidity readings taken in three places

Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: We read the room touched by water, an unaffected area and outside the building.

A moisture load and sizing calculation

We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: Dehumidifier sizing comes from the cubic feet of the space and how wet and dense the materials are.

Professional dehumidifiers placed for airflow

Our restoration team explains it this way: A low grain refrigerant dehumidifier condenses water out of the air on a cold coil and drains it away.

Desiccant units where refrigerant cannot finish the job

A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: A specialized dehumidifier uses silica gel to pull air far drier than a refrigerant dehumidifier can.

A closed drying system established

We keep the next decision simple by explaining this: Windows and exterior doors stay shut so the equipment controls a known volume of air.

Continuous drainage set up

Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Every unit is run to a drain, a sink or a condensate pump.

What to expect

What to expect from our restoration team

Here is how we generally handle dehumidification near Minnesota.

  1. 1

    We ask about the space, not just the spill

    A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: Room sizes, ceiling height, what kind of floors and walls, and how the building is heated or cooled.

    Your call
  2. 2

    Readings before equipment

    For a calmer next step, remember this: A technician takes temperature and humidity in the wet area, in an unaffected room and outdoors.

    On arrival
  3. 3

    Sizing math and placement

    Here is what this means for your property: We calculate the volume in cubic feet, weigh the material load, and place the units.

    First hours on site
  4. 4

    The space becomes a closed system

    We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: Windows and exterior doors are shut, interior doors are set, and drainage is run.

    Day 1
  5. 5

    Grain depression verified before we leave

    As we walk you through the work, we clarify this: Each unit is reviewed for how much moisture it is pulling out of the air passing through it.

    Day 1, evening
  6. 6

    Readings compared and equipment adjusted

    Our restoration team explains it this way: We log the numbers daily and compare them to the day before.

    Day 2
  7. 7

    The load drops and machines come out

    We make this part easier to understand: As the air holds less water, fewer units are needed to hold the space dry.

    Day 3 to 4

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

We keep the next decision simple by explaining this: We explain in plain language the recommended restoration steps and price before you approve the job. We make this part easier to understand: These examples show what can sometimes change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Professional dehumidifier, per unit per dayWe keep the next decision simple by explaining this: National estimate.$70 to $110
Specialized dehumidifier, per dayOur monitored-drying plan is based on this: National estimate for smaller portable and towable units.$200 to $500
Typical home dehumidification, two units for four daysBefore we move forward, we help you understand this: National estimate including placement, drainage and daily readings.$700 to $1,600
Whole floor or open plan dehumidification, four to six daysWe keep the next decision simple by explaining this: National estimate.$2,000 to $6,000
Large commercial or dense material drying with desiccant support, per dayAs we walk you through the work, we clarify this: National estimate covering the desiccant unit, ducting and supporting refrigerant equipment.$600 to $1,500
Electricity per dehumidifier per dayOur team uses this point to organize the work: National estimate according to local rates and unit size.$2 to $7
  • Room volume in cubic feet
    Our team uses this point to organize the work: Dehumidifier sizing follows air volume, not floor area.

  • How wet and how dense the materials are
    Our team uses this point to organize the work: Carpet and drywall give up water soon and create a heavy early load.

  • Refrigerant versus desiccant equipment
    Our restoration team explains it this way: An Professional dehumidifier covers most homes at a moderate day rate.

  • Electrical capacity in the building
    Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Each unit needs its own circuit headroom.

  • Outdoor conditions and season
    To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: Humid outdoor air raises the load every time a door opens.

  • Drainage and setup complexity
    As we walk you through the work, we clarify this: A nearby sink makes drainage simple.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Before we move forward, we help you understand this: Water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Fans without dehumidifiers just move the water

Here is what this means for your property: Air movers pull moisture out of your materials and hand it to the air.

Above 60 percent humidity, growth gets easy

Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Damp materials in humid air can support mold within 24 to 48 hours.

Undersized equipment stalls the whole job

We make this part easier to understand: A unit that cannot reach a useful grain depression runs all week without result.

Open windows can add moisture instead of removing it

Before we move forward, we help you understand this: On a humid day, outdoor air carries more water than the room does.

Helpful service information

What to know about dehumidification

A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: Begin by noting the short explanation. Before we move forward, we help you understand this: Open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Air movers lower the vapor pressure at a wet surface, which lets water leave the material and enter the room air.

Read the explanation

To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: Drying is a two step handoff and dehumidification is step two.

How the next step is decided

Our restoration team explains it this way: Relative humidity is a percentage of what the air could hold at its current temperature, so it changes when temperature changes even if nothing dried.

Our restoration team explains it this way: The numbers are simpler than they sound. Our restoration team explains it this way: Relative humidity is a percentage of what the air could hold at its current temperature, so it changes when temperature changes even if nothing dried.

What can sometimes change the work

As we walk you through the work, we clarify this: An Professional dehumidifier condenses moisture on a cold coil and works well in normal indoor temperatures, which covers most home losses.

Common questions

Questions about dehumidification

Why do I need dehumidifiers if the water was already extracted?

As we walk you through the work, we clarify this: Because of how much water is still in the building, and how much capacity it takes to catch it.

Can I just use my own dehumidifier from the hardware store?

Before we move forward, we help you understand this: For a damp basement in summer, yes. Here is what this means for your property: For a water loss, no, because home units are rated for a few pints per day in comfortable conditions and cannot handle the load.

What is an Professional dehumidifier?

To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: LGR stands for low grain refrigerant. Before we move forward, we help you understand this: Our restoration team uses this point to organize the work: It is a refrigerant dehumidifier with an extra heat exchanger, which lets it keep pulling water out of air that is already fairly dry.

What is a specialized dehumidifier and when do you use one?

Before we move forward, we help you understand this: A specialized dehumidifier passes air over silica gel, which absorbs moisture without needing a cold coil.

How many dehumidifiers does my house need?

For a calmer next step, remember this: It comes from the volume of the affected space in cubic feet and how wet the materials are.

What humidity should the room be during drying?

We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: For ordinary materials we generally hold the drying space between about 30 and 50 percent relative humidity.

What do the numbers on the meter actually mean?

To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: Relative humidity tells you how full the air is compared to what it could hold at that temperature.
