It Flooded. Here's What Matters Right Now.
First: shut off the water and kill power to the area if it's safe to reach. Get standing water out with whatever you have — mop, wet-vac, towels. Then the clock starts: drywall, carpet pad, and framing keep soaking up water for hours, and mold gets going within 24–48 hours in Georgia weather.
That's where equipment comes in. High-speed air movers pushing air across everything wet, and a commercial dehumidifier pulling that moisture out of the air, running day and night for 3–5 days. It's exactly what a restoration crew would set up — while billing you thousands.
The Same Equipment, Without the Restoration Bill
We rent a commercial Dri-Eaz LGR dehumidifier (pulls up to 70 pints of water a day) and Force 9 air movers — delivered, placed right, drain hose run so you never empty a bucket. Full kit $45/day with a 3-day minimum. On an insurance claim, that same equipment gets billed at roughly $120/day. Itemized receipts included.
We proved it on our own building: an uninsulated 950 sq ft shop went from 80% humidity to 53% in two days — out of the mold zone completely.

Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment do I need to dry out a flooded room or basement?
The same two things every restoration company brings: high-speed air movers to push moisture out of carpet, floors, and walls, and a commercial LGR dehumidifier to pull that moisture out of the air. Our full kit — Dri-Eaz dehumidifier plus two Force 9 fans — is $45/day, delivered and set up. We tested it in our own uninsulated 950 sq ft shop: 80% humidity down to 53% in two days.
How long does water damage take to dry?
Most rooms need 3–5 days of continuous running — that's why the rental has a 3-day minimum. Wet drywall and carpet pad hold far more water than they look like they do. The biggest mistake homeowners make is shutting equipment off when things feel dry on the surface; that's how mold shows up a month later.
Is renting drying equipment cheaper than hiring a restoration company?
Dramatically. A restoration company handling a single flooded room typically bills $1,500–3,500+, much of it equipment line items — roughly $70/day for the dehumidifier and $25/day per fan on an insurance claim. Renting the same class of equipment from us costs $45/day for the whole kit. If the water is clean and the area is contained, most homeowners can do this themselves. If it's sewage, or it's been wet for over a week, hire a pro — we'll tell you honestly which situation you're in when you call.
Will insurance cover the rental?
Water damage claims routinely include equipment and drying costs, and our rates run below the standard claim line items adjusters expect. We provide itemized receipts for every rental so you can submit them with your claim. Check your policy for the water source — sudden and accidental (burst pipe, appliance failure) is usually covered; slow seepage often isn't.
