Trapped Moisture? We Apply Pressure — Not Guesswork

After a flood or leak, moisture can become trapped in layers of flooring, joist spaces, wall voids, or cavity insulation. Standard drying methods often can’t reach these zones — leading to persistent damp, mould growth, and structural risk. We help clients who face:

• Water trapped beneath timber floors, screeds, or insulation

• Damp cavity walls or risers where airflow is restricted

• Mould risk due to slow or insufficient drying

• Project delays while waiting for substructure to dry out

• Invasive strip-out pressures due to lack of drying options

• Insurance claims that require specialist moisture control

At Eighty Eight, our pressure drying systems create airflow within confined spaces to speed up evaporation and recovery — safely and effectively:

• Targeted pressure drying for subfloors, wall voids, joists, screeds, and risers

• Installation of injection hoses and sealed containment to isolate damp areas

• Use of positive or negative pressure systems, depending on structure and contamination risk

• Real-time moisture monitoring and drying logs to track progress

• Optional tenting and zone separation for high-efficiency drying

• Non-destructive techniques that help minimise cost and disruption

• Suitable for clean and black water incidents, backed by full risk assessments

• Flooded homes and commercial buildings

• Insurance reinstatement and drying validation works

• Schools, care homes, and public buildings
