How do I know the extent of my water damage?

DIY-DRY provides a free thermal imaging damage assessment scan at the time of your equipment delivery to help you assess the severity of your water damage and detect hidden moisture in walls, floors, and ceilings.

Do you offer water extraction?

Yes. DIY-DRY offers emergency 24/7 water extraction service starting at $0.46 per square foot. We use high-volume specialty water extraction units delivered directly to your location so you can start drying immediately.

Do you set up the equipment?

Yes. DIY-DRY offers a professional equipment setup and takedown option for a flat fee of $300. Our team places all equipment in the correct positions for maximum drying efficiency and retrieves it when you are done.

How will I know when my property is dry?

We rent professional non-destructive moisture meters starting at $45 per day. Place the meter on a dry section of your wall to establish a dry standard reading. Then check affected areas daily until all readings match the dry standard. This tells you exactly when your property has returned to pre-loss condition.

What areas do you serve?

DIY-DRY serves Flagler County including Palm Coast and Flagler Beach, Volusia County including Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach, and Port Orange, and St. Johns County including St. Augustine, Ponte Vedra, and Nocatee. 24/7 emergency delivery is available throughout all service areas.

Should I file an insurance claim for water damage?

Filing an insurance claim for water damage can raise your rates by 10 to 50 percent, risk policy cancellation, and leave a mark on your CLUE report for up to 7 years even if the claim is denied. Many homeowners save significantly by renting professional drying equipment and handling the cleanup themselves rather than filing a claim.

What is included in the minimum emergency response package?

The DIY-DRY minimum emergency response package includes one XL commercial LGR dehumidifier and two axial air movers delivered to your location. This is everything you need to start the water damage drying process immediately. Equipment protection plan, delivery, and pickup are additional.

Do you deliver after hours, on weekends, and on holidays?

Yes. DIY-DRY offers 24/7 emergency delivery every day of the year including weekends and holidays. An additional dispatch fee of $125.00 applies for deliveries outside of standard business hours of 9am to 5pm Monday through Friday.

How is DIY-DRY different from a full-service restoration company?

DIY-DRY rents professional-grade water damage drying equipment directly to homeowners and property managers. Full-service restoration companies charge thousands of dollars for the same equipment and labor. By renting directly from DIY-DRY and handling the drying process yourself or with our optional setup service, you save thousands while using the same commercial-grade equipment the pros use.
