Our Restoration Process.

DryX has the expertise and equipment to quickly restore your property back to pre-water damage condition. We use a scientific approach to water removal and water cleanup that emphasizes monitoring and documenting the drying process from beginning to end.
Every water damage event is a little different, and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same.

1Inital Phone Call
We’ll take the time to listen and get to know you how you run your home or business. And then we will provide options to suit. Simple. Our specialist will guide you through several questions that will help us appropriately respond to your unique water emergency. We will set up a time for our trained technician to inspect the property and create a restoration plan for you. Fast response is critical, so we’ll want to schedule this as soon as possible.

If necessary, we will also assist with stopping the source of the water damage. All of this is a crucial step to creating an effective plan of action that will result in the successful restoration of your property.
3Make it Safe
We remove all electrical devices to avoid risk. We also remove slip hazards from the area to ensure safety. Furniture that may be in the way of the drying process may be relocated and foam blocks will be installed to protect furniture and floor coverings.
4Water Extraction
Work normally begins with a thorough extraction of water. This will prevent the spread of water to the structure and reduces drying time. Hundreds or thousands of litres of water are removed using powerful pumps and extraction units during the water removal process.
5Removal of Non-restorable Items
Materials that cannot be successfully restored should be removed as soon as possible to expedite the drying of all restorable materials. Our lead technician will discuss the reasonings and will await your approval before actioning this work.
6Cleaning, Sanitising, & Deodorisation
Dirty water will require cleaning, sanitizing, or deodorization needs for floors, furniture, and other personal belongings. It may contain contamination, unsafe levels of bacteria, viruses, or mold and other contaminants. We use anti-microbial and sanitisation equipment, and proven techniques to ensure the safety of your staff and family.
7Rapid Drying
Our team will install industry-leading drying equipment to dry behind gravicess and deep within the structure. The type and amount of equipment is dependent on your unique situation and industry standards. Our team will develop a drying system to best suite your building and activities. Structural drying is essential to bring back the property to its pre-flood condition.

During the drying process, our specialists will want to visit your property daily to help ensure materials are drying properly, check drying equipment performance, and make changes as needed. This monitoring process is critical to effective and efficient drying of your property.
9Air-Purification
We purify all the air in the affected areas, removing odours and protecting against allergies. We filter with a minimum efficiency 99.97% of particles at 0.3 microns and 95% of particles at 0.1 microns. This ensures peace of mind that all your staff and family are safe during the drying process.
10Carpet Cleaning
After drying is complete your carpet will be washed and deoderised using a hot water extraction process and In most cases, we can restore your carpets to a better condition then before the flooding took place.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Structural Drying?
Structural drying is crucial for preventing the growth of mould, bacteria, and other harmful microorganisms in a building. Without proper structural drying, the moisture can penetrate deep into the structure and cause long-lasting damage, including musty smells that may never go away. That's why our team at DryX Melbourne takes extra care to dry behind skirtings and framework to prevent mould growth on plaster and other building materials. With our water damage restoration services, we help safeguard the well-being of those within the building by avoiding the spread of hazardous contaminants.
How Does Structural Drying Work?
Our team of experts uses specialized equipment and techniques to extract water and moisture from your property. We begin by removing any standing water and using powerful fans and dehumidifiers that penetrate deep within building materials, including skirtings, plaster, and timber framework, to remove excess moisture and prevent mould growth and musty odours. We also use thermal imaging technology to detect and monitor moisture levels, ensuring that all affected areas are thoroughly dried.
What is Timber Drying?
Timber drying is the process of reducing moisture content within timber fibres, which can cause the wood to cup and swell if it becomes wet. At DryX Melbourne, we offer efficient drying solutions to help restore water-damaged timber floors. Our heat dry mats deliver heat and air circulation directly to the affected area, preventing further damage and reducing moisture levels quickly. With careful installation and continuous monitoring by our team of experts, we ensure the effectiveness of the drying process. In addition, we use booster boxes to enhance the heat and airflow for a comprehensive and efficient solution. Count on DryX Melbourne for all your water damage restoration needs.
