BUILDING DRYING

< Back

Damp Buildings Create More Than Delays


Water damage or retained construction moisture can affect every part of a building — plaster, screeds, flooring, voids, insulation, and structural timbers. Without correct drying, the result can be:


  • Long-term mould problems and odours

  • Timber rot, warped flooring, or condensation damage

  • Failed moisture readings during reinstatement or fit-out

  • Costly delays in insurance or handover works

  • Health risks and complaints in occupied buildings

  • Stripped-out interiors due to undiagnosed hidden moisture


At Eighty Eight, we use advanced drying technology to restore buildings safely and efficiently:


  • Whole-building assessments using moisture meters, thermal imaging, and mapping

  • Deployment of desiccant or refrigerant dehumidifiers, air movers, and heaters

  • Targeted drying for floors, walls, ceilings, voids, and structures

  • Pressure and suction drying for inaccessible or layered materials

  • Regular monitoring and moisture logging for compliance and reporting

  • Drying certificates and handover documents accepted by insurers and site managers

  • Optional support with strip-out, sanitisation, and mould prevention


We Provide Building Drying For:


  • Flood-damaged domestic and commercial properties

  • Construction and refurbishment projects
