Our Services: Building Drying and Water Damage in Munich

Water extraction and basement pumping
If there is water in the basement, apartment, shaft or technical room, we remove it with pumping and extraction equipment. We then prepare the areas for cleaning, moisture measurement and technical drying.

Screed and Insulation Layer Drying
If water gets under the screed, it often spreads through the insulation layer far beyond the visible damage. We dry the floor construction using positive- or negative-pressure methods and monitor progress with regular measurements.

Building Drying and New-Build Drying
After screed, plaster or concrete work, a building holds a lot of construction moisture. We plan technical drying to suit the area, materials, temperature and construction schedule – in new builds, renovations and existing buildings.

Cavity and Containment Drying
Moisture in drywall, suspended ceilings or installation shafts requires targeted airflow. With cavity or containment drying we bring dry air exactly where it is needed.

Leak Detection and Moisture Assessment
A damp wall does not automatically show where water is escaping. We locate leaks and moisture patterns with measuring and testing equipment, so only what really needs opening is opened – and drying starts in the right place.

Water Damage Restoration and Reinstatement
Water damage is only resolved once the rooms are usable again. We handle controlled removal, close drying openings and restore wall, ceiling and floor surfaces.

Drain and Pipe Cleaning
Blocked pipes cause backflow and new water damage. We clean pipes and drains and, if needed, combine this directly with water removal, moisture measurement and drying.
Which Drying Method Is the Right One?
There is no single drying method suitable for every water damage situation. The correct solution depends on factors such as the building construction, materials, temperature, extent of moisture and accessibility. After carrying out the necessary measurements, we determine which drying method — or combination of methods — is most appropriate.

Condensation Drying
During condensation drying, moist room air is drawn into the drying unit, cooled and the resulting condensation water is collected. This method is particularly suitable for heated indoor spaces as well as for room and surface drying.
Adsorption Drying
Adsorption dryers remove moisture from the air using a desiccant material. This method can be especially useful at lower temperatures or in situations where particularly dry process air is required.
Insulation Layer Drying Using Positive or Negative Pressure
When floor constructions are affected by moisture, dry air is directed specifically through the insulation layer. Whether a positive-pressure or negative-pressure method is used depends on the structure of the floor and the individual damage situation.
Cavity and Containment Drying
For limited areas or difficult-to-access cavities, dry air is directed specifically into the affected area. A containment system can isolate the drying zone and concentrate the drying process on the damaged building component.
Moisture Monitoring
We do not stop the drying process based on guesswork or simply because a predetermined number of days has passed. Regular moisture measurements show how the moisture levels are developing and when the agreed drying target has been reached.

How Building Drying Works
Report the Damage and Describe the Situation
You call or send us the form. We clarify immediate measures and schedule an appointment based on urgency.
Leak Detection and Moisture Measurement
We identify the likely source of the damage and determine which building components have been affected by moisture.

Drying Concept and Equipment Installation
Based on the readings and the building structure, we choose the right method and set up the required equipment.
Equipment Removal and Restoration
Once the drying target has been confirmed by measurement, we remove the equipment. On request, we restore wall, ceiling and floor surfaces.
Typical Water Damage in Munich That We Dry

Burst Pipes and Pipe Leaks
Leaks in drinking water pipes, heating pipes or wastewater pipes can affect walls, floors and adjacent rooms. We locate the damaged area, determine the extent of the moisture and plan the required drying measures.

Basement Flooding and Heavy Rain
Following heavy rainfall or water entering from outside, we remove standing water and determine which walls, floors and installed elements have been affected.

Backups and Blocked Drains
If a blockage or sewer backup causes water to escape, we combine drain cleaning, water removal, cleaning and technical drying according to the individual damage situation.

Leaking Washing Machines or Dishwashers
Defective connections, hoses or household appliances can cause hidden moisture underneath floor coverings and screed. Moisture measurements show whether only the surface has been affected or whether the floor construction underneath is also wet.

Moisture Beneath Screed and Floor Coverings
Even if the surface already appears dry, water may still remain within insulation layers or underneath floor coverings. In these cases, targeted screed or insulation layer drying may be necessary.

Hidden Moisture in Walls and Ceilings
Leaks behind panelling, in drywall constructions, shafts or suspended ceilings often go unnoticed for a long time. We pinpoint the affected area and choose the most targeted drying solution possible.
Why Customers in Munich Choose Us
Specialist company, not a referral service
You speak directly with the technicians who measure and dry your damage. No handing over to unknown subcontractors.
Moisture log for your insurer
We document moisture readings at the start, during and at the end of drying. This makes settlement with your building or contents insurance easier.
Everything from a single source
We coordinate leak detection, water extraction, technical drying and restoration ourselves – no need for you to find additional tradespeople.
Permanent base in Munich
Our company is located at Leonrodstraße 18 in Neuhausen. Short distances to the city and the Munich area.
How Much Does Building Drying Cost in Munich – and Who Pays?
The cost of building drying depends on the extent of the damage: affected area, floor construction, number and type of devices, drying time and any restoration work. The effort can only be assessed reliably after the moisture measurement. After that you receive a transparent scope of work from us – your first enquiry is free of obligation.
Pipe water damage: often covered by insurance
After a burst pipe or a leaking line, building insurance often covers the costs of leak detection and drying, and contents insurance covers damage to furnishings. Your policy is decisive.
Moisture log and documentation
We record initial readings, drying progress and final measurement in writing and provide you with the documents for your insurance claim.
Power consumption of the dryers
Dehumidifiers run around the clock. We record power consumption via runtime or a sub-meter so it can be proven to your insurer.

Frequently Asked Questions About Building Drying in Munich
What Should I Do First in the Event of Acute Water Damage?
First, make sure that you and anyone else in the property are not in danger. Only shut off the water supply and electricity in the affected area if it is safe to do so. Document visible damage with photos and report the damage as quickly as possible. If the water may be contaminated, avoid entering the affected area unnecessarily.
Are You Available Around the Clock?
Yes. For acute water damage you can reach us around the clock at 089 90930690. We discuss the next steps immediately and give you a realistic time frame for the call-out.
Do You Also Provide Leak Detection?
Yes. We identify hidden leaks and moisture patterns using suitable measurement and inspection technology. Leak detection is often the basis for targeted opening, repair and subsequent drying of the affected building components.
Which Drying Methods Do You Offer?
Depending on the affected building component and the damage situation, we use methods including: Condensation drying Adsorption drying Screed drying Insulation layer drying Positive-pressure and negative-pressure drying Cavity drying Containment drying
How Long Does Building Drying Take?
A reliable timeframe can only be estimated after moisture measurements have been taken and the affected building construction has been assessed. The drying time depends on factors including the materials involved, the extent of the moisture, temperature, accessibility and the drying method used. The drying process is completed based on measurement results rather than simply after a predetermined number of days.
Does the Screed or Floor Always Need to Be Opened?
No. Whether openings are required and how extensive they need to be depends on the floor construction and the distribution of moisture. For insulation layer drying, small and precisely positioned openings may be necessary. The procedure is explained and agreed with you before the work begins.
Can the Property Still Be Used During the Drying Process?
That depends on the extent of the damage, the rooms affected, possible contamination and the drying technology being used. In the case of smaller water damage, partial use of the property is often still possible. Larger damage or contaminated water may require temporary restrictions.
Do You Also Carry Out Restoration Work?
Yes. After the drying process has been completed, we can carry out controlled removal work and restore damaged wall, ceiling and floor surfaces. This means that the entire process — from the initial damage assessment through to final restoration — can remain with one point of contact.
Do You Also Offer Drain and Pipe Cleaning?
Yes. We clean blocked pipes and drains. If a blockage has already caused a backup or water damage, drain cleaning, water extraction and technical drying can be coordinated as part of one process.
How Much Does Building Drying Cost?
Costs depend on the extent of the damage, the floor construction, the number and type of devices, the drying time and any restoration work required. After the moisture measurement you receive a transparent scope of work. Your first enquiry is free of obligation. For burst-pipe and leaking-pipe damage, insurance often covers the costs.
Does insurance pay for building drying?
For water damage from pipes – for example after a burst pipe or a leaking line – the building insurance often covers leak detection and technical drying. Damage to furniture and contents is usually covered by household contents insurance. Report the damage to your insurer early; we provide the moisture log and documentation.
How quickly can you be on site in Munich?
We prioritise acute water damage. How quickly we can be on site depends on current workload and your location – on the phone we give you a binding time frame and explain what you can do yourself until we arrive.
Will I receive a moisture log?
Yes. We measure moisture before, during and after drying and document the readings. The log shows when the drying target has been reached and can be submitted to your insurer.
How loud are dehumidifiers and how much electricity do they use?
Drying equipment usually runs around the clock and is audible, similar to a loud fan. We position the devices to keep the disturbance as low as possible. Power consumption is recorded so it can be billed or claimed from your insurer.
Which Areas Do You Serve?
We work throughout the city of Munich, in the Munich district (e.g. Garching, Unterhaching, Ottobrunn, Pullach) and in the surrounding area such as Dachau, Freising, Erding, Fürstenfeldbruck and Starnberg. Our base is Leonrodstraße 18, 80634 Munich.
