Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Roswell, NM
Commercial air movers and low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the structure, with daily moisture-meter readings logged for your insurer. Structural drying brings building materials back to a documented dry standard using air movers and dehumidifiers rather than surface evaporation alone. Moisture readings are logged through the process so the substrate, not just the surface, is confirmed dry before anything is rebuilt.

Frequently asked questions
It has not rained in weeks and the slab edge is damp. From where?
From below. This is an artesian valley; groundwater is close to the surface whether or not the monsoon has fired. A damp slab edge in a dry month is the water table, and a rain gauge is the wrong instrument for it.
Is gypsum actually a sinkhole rock here?
It can be. Gypsum dissolves faster than limestone, and a downspout or a leaking line that empties in one spot will enlarge a void in valley beds. A depression that keeps returning after being filled is worth treating as a water-concentration problem, not as settling.
If we stop irrigating, does the slab dry out?
It may dry at the edges and not at the core. Irrigation is an extra load on a system that is already wet from below, so cutting it helps the gradient without turning the valley into a dry site. The artesian water is still there.
