How commercial water damage is handled in Cordova, TN
Moisture mapping first
The commercial water damage job starts with a moisture map, so the drying plan matches what is actually wet instead of what looks wet.
Category and class set the plan
Category 1, 2 and 3 water are handled differently, and Class 1 through 4 sets how much equipment each room needs.
Structural drying, not surface drying
Air movers and LGR dehumidifiers run until the framing and subfloor read dry, not until the carpet feels dry.
A file built for the claim
Daily psychrometric logs and timestamped photos taken before any demolition go into the claim file.
