How Water Mitigation Works in Rector

Humid air keeps wet materials from letting go of their water. Dehumidifiers and air movers reverse that, and surfaces begin to dry long before the 24 to 48 hour window closes.

  1. Pump out the standing water

    Basements and crawl spaces get submersible pumps. If the soil outside is saturated, crews often lower the water in steps, because pressure from the ground can load a basement wall that is suddenly empty.

  2. Map the moisture

    Humidity gets logged too. The crew records temperature and relative humidity inside and outside, since the air conditions decide how much drying equipment a room needs.

  3. Cut out what will not dry

    Debris is bagged and carried out so it does not track moisture or contamination through the house. Furniture is lifted onto blocks or moved to dry rooms.

  4. Dry and verify

    Equipment runs until the readings match a dry reference. The crew visits each day, adjusts the fans, moves units and pulls out any machine an area no longer needs.
