Structural Drying in Edmonton

Structural Drying in Edmonton

Industrial air movers, LGR dehumidifiers, and daily moisture monitoring that dry walls, floors, and framing to verified levels.

Drying Assessment

Tell us what got wet. We set up drying equipment the same day.

After water is extracted, the real work begins: drying the structure itself. Water hides inside wall cavities, under flooring, and in framing, where it rots wood, rusts fasteners, and grows mold. Malwa Drymasters places industrial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers strategically, then monitors moisture levels daily until readings return to normal. We dry to verified numbers, not to the touch, so your Edmonton home is safe to rebuild on and safe to live in.

What we do

Moisture mapping

Moisture meters and thermal imaging map exactly where water is hiding before we place a single piece of equipment.

Industrial air movers

High-velocity air movers sweep moisture off surfaces and out of wall cavities so it can be captured and removed.

LGR dehumidifiers

Low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air even in cool conditions, which Edmonton basements often are.

Wall cavity drying

We drill access holes and inject drying airflow into wall cavities so trapped water evaporates instead of rotting framing.

Daily monitoring

We return daily to record moisture readings, adjust equipment placement, and track progress against a drying goal.

Clearance verification

Drying is complete only when moisture readings match the dry standard for each material, documented for your insurer.

Why drying to a number matters

"It feels dry" is not a finish line. Moisture hides where hands cannot reach:

  1. Wall cavities. Water runs down inside walls and pools at the bottom plate, soaking framing and insulation out of sight.
  2. Subfloors. Water under flooring wicks into plywood and joists, causing swelling, delamination, and rot.
  3. Hidden mold. Moisture above 15 to 16 percent in wood supports mold growth, even when surfaces look dry.
  4. Insurance disputes. Without documented moisture readings, insurers can question whether drying was completed properly.

Our daily readings create a drying log that proves the job was done right, for you and for your adjuster.

Why choose us for Edmonton structural drying

Industrial equipment

Commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers move far more air and moisture than consumer units, so drying finishes in days, not weeks.

Most homes dry in 3 to 5 days

Verified results

Daily moisture readings and a documented drying log prove the structure is dry before we remove a single machine.

Dried to verified moisture levels

Insurance ready

The drying log and clearance readings give your adjuster the documentation needed to close the claim cleanly.

Structural Drying FAQs

How long does structural drying take?add
Most Edmonton homes dry in 3 to 5 days. We place air movers and dehumidifiers strategically, then monitor moisture daily until readings return to normal levels.
Why can't I just use fans and a dehumidifier from the store?add
Consumer units cannot move enough air or remove enough moisture to dry wall cavities and subfloors. Industrial equipment and daily moisture monitoring are what prevent hidden mold and rot.
Do I need to leave my home during drying?add
Usually not. Equipment runs continuously and can be noisy, but most clients stay in the home. We check daily and adjust the setup until moisture readings are back to normal.

Wet walls or floors that will not dry?
