Serving Rock Springs
Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Rock Springs, WY
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
Ten inches a year. Why close the crawlspace at all?
Because the winter is long, not because the rain is heavy. A closed crawlspace at this elevation traps whatever moisture was in the ground at freeze-up and holds it until May. The annual total is small; the season the space cannot dry is not.
Clinker under the lot looks like gravel. Treat it as drainage?
Treat it as a pipe you did not install. Burned-coal clinker transmits water laterally, so a wet crawlspace with a dry yard is a clinker signature. Finding where that bed daylights, or cutting it off with a trench, is the repair; waiting for a wetter climate is not.
The old brick storefront weeps and the new house next door does not. Age?
Assembly. Lime mortar was meant to pass moisture, and at 10 inches a year that is usually a stain, not a flood. The new house is framed and flashed differently. Painting the brick shut is how a stain becomes a spall.
