Moisture Delays Cost Time and Money

New-builds, refurbishments, and fit-outs often face drying challenges — from plaster and screed moisture to rain-soaked structures. Unchecked, excess moisture can delay flooring, snagging, and decoration, or worse, cause hidden mould and damage post-handover. We support contractors and developers experiencing:

• Project delays due to unfit moisture levels in floors, walls, or plaster

• Inability to install flooring or finishes due to retained moisture

• Damp build-up from poor ventilation or bad weather

• Failed moisture meter tests for floor coverings or paint

• Compliance checks requiring professional documentation and monitoring

• Pressure from end clients, insurers, or quality managers

  
  

At Eighty Eight, our construction drying services include:

• Site assessments and moisture readings to identify problem areas

• Deployment of high-performance dehumidifiers and air movers

• Targeted drying of screeds, concrete slabs, subfloors, and plastered walls

• Use of tenting, injection, or enclosure drying systems for faster results

• Ongoing monitoring and moisture logging for compliance

• Certificates of dryness for floor laying and finishes

• Support for phased works, reactive drying, or final-stage recovery
