What Your Neighbors Are Saying About Us

Danielle B.
Showed up fast after we had a massive water situation at the house and immediately took control of the situation. The crew was professional and thorough — they walked us through every step of the drying process so we always knew what was happening. Their help and guidance on how insurance handles these situations was invaluable as this was completely uncharted territory for us which made a stressful situation so much easier.
Susan R.
I was really surprised as to how well things went. The workers were very polite and respectful of my home. They called before they came and asked if it was acceptable for me . They cleaned up behind themselves every day. They explained what they were going to do the next day. They were the best group of young men I have run into in a long time. They take their work seriously
Matthew T.
This is an outstanding business that treats its customers like people. They care about getting your home repaired and about decency and integrity in their business practices. I used IronClad after a flood and my insurance company tried to short change me, leaving me in a bind that could threaten my ability to stay in the home, but Debbie cleared it all up and really saved the day for me and my 4 year old daughter. They deserve all the business they can get.
Rebecca G.
This is my second review in two weeks! I have yet to meet an unkind person in this company! I’ve never been more pleased with a company! Dekota and Junior were out yesterday to break down my master bathroom for a remodel!!! They were both kind, courteous and knowledgeable in their work! Being a widow, I felt very comfortable having them in my home!
Connie R.
All the guys from IronClad so far have been friendly and professional. Darin, Mike, Preston, and Randon have been very helpful and answered all my questions so I understood all that was being done during the demolition.
Ricardo C.
Not only did they provide me with a free estimate but helped me understand the process of working with the insurance company and what I should expect. Its still nerve-wracking even with having the knowledge they provided to make an educated decision but it definitely helped. These guys made it as stream line as they could and were there to answer all of my questions.

What Applied Structural Drying Involves

Applied structural drying is a scientific process that removes moisture from the structural components of your home, including framing, subflooring, and drywall. Rather than just drying visible surfaces, this process targets moisture that has soaked into building materials where it cannot be seen.

Our technicians use specialized equipment to control temperature, humidity, and airflow throughout the affected space. This creates the ideal conditions for moisture to evaporate from materials and be captured before it can cause further damage. Every step is monitored and documented, so we know exactly when your home has reached a safe moisture level.

Signs Your Property Needs Professional Drying

Some signs of excess moisture are easy to miss, especially once standing water is gone.

  • Lingering musty odors
  • Warped or swollen wood
  • Peeling paint or wallpaper
  • Cool or damp feeling walls
  • Condensation on windows
  • Visible mold spots

Our Structural Drying and Dehumidification Process

Our process begins with moisture mapping, where we use meters and thermal imaging to identify exactly where water has spread throughout the structure. This gives us a clear picture of the areas that need attention before we bring in equipment.

From there, we set up commercial dehumidifiers and air movers positioned to maximize airflow across wet surfaces. We monitor moisture levels daily, adjusting equipment placement as materials dry at different rates. Drying times vary depending on the extent of the damage, but most jobs are complete within three to seven days once equipment is running.

Once moisture readings confirm the structure has returned to a safe level, we remove our equipment and provide documentation of the drying process. This documentation can be useful for insurance purposes and gives you confidence that your home is truly dry.

Risks of Incomplete Drying

Skipping or rushing the drying process can lead to serious problems down the road. Moisture trapped inside walls or flooring creates an ideal environment for mold growth, which can spread quickly in a home and become a larger, more expensive issue to resolve.

Nevada’s dry climate can sometimes create a false sense of security, since surfaces may feel dry to the touch while moisture remains trapped deeper in building materials. Incomplete drying can also weaken wood framing over time, leading to structural issues that are far more costly to repair than the original water damage. Working with a professional team helps make sure drying is verified with equipment, not just guesswork.
