Our 5-Step Restoration Blueprint
-
Safety & Triage: We assess the water category and use thermal imaging to find “hidden” water behind GIB and under floorboards.
-
Rapid Extraction: Using truck-mounted or portable vacuums, we remove the bulk of the water to stop it from migrating into wall cavities.
-
Stabilisation: We deploy LGR dehumidifiers to pull moisture from the air and air movers to “wick” moisture out of materials.
-
Sanitisation: We apply hospital-grade, pet-safe antimicrobials to prevent mould spores and odours.
-
Verification: We take daily moisture readings. We don’t leave until the timber and underlay reach “dry-standard” targets.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the drying process take?
Most standard flood jobs are bone-dry in 3 to 5 days. High-density materials like structural timber or concrete may take longer, but we provide daily monitoring to keep you updated.
Will my insurance cover this?
In most cases, yes. We work with all major NZ insurers. We provide the technical documentation (moisture maps and drying logs) that helps expedite your claim.
Is the equipment loud?
Our industrial air movers create a consistent “white noise.” While they are powerful, most families find them easy to live with for a few days. We also offer “whisper-quiet” options for sensitive areas.
