Large Loss - Water Damage Restoration Process (32 Floors Affected!) | Incredible Restorations

What happens when the boiler on the roof of your 32-floor apartment fails?
Everything below gets damaged.
In September, one of our clients experienced a massive flood from a boiler malfunction. Within an hour of our crews being called and arriving, an enormous amount of water damage had already been done.
Water seeped into walls, flooring and even the emergency stairwell which heavily affected residents and building staff.
When our crew arrived they immediately started water extraction, moisture mapping, and documentation. To ensure they found all areas of moisture, they removed the baseboards and double-layered drywall to physically inspect water in the steel stud C - Channels. They also inspected the building for mold, lead, and asbestos.
Our crews worked tirelessly over the course of weeks to dry all 32 floors to get residents back into their homes.

You referred to the assessment company in the most Canadian way possible. What was the total equipment count on the job? Did you set any air scrubbers?

Never knew the industry standard was 4 days. I was always taught it was more of a recommendation than a actual standard.

Incredible is a great company i have worked with them before.
There is no industry standard days of drying. Regardless of how much equipment or technology installed into the drying chamber/affected area. How quickly moisture/vapor moves or diffuses through the material is based on the perms. The driving force of structural drying is vapor pressure differentials and energy delivered to the wet material. S500 states drying equipment should remain in operation into materials have returned to a pre-determined drying goals.
