Drying buildings in Adelaide
Adelaide is the driest capital, but the housing stock is old: bluestone villas and stone cottages with lime mortar, solid brick homes with no damp course and low subfloors that flood in winter. When water gets into these buildings it stays, and the salt damp that follows is a permanent problem unless the walls are dried quickly and properly.
The September 2016 storm blacked out the state and flooded the Gawler River and Virginia, the River Torrens and Brownhill Creek catchments flood in wet winters, and the Adelaide Hills combine heavy winter rain with cold nights that keep buildings damp for months. Burst pipes in the January heat, when copper expands and old joints fail, add a summer season of water losses.

Frequently asked questions
Can I dry a stone wall with a dehumidifier?
Yes, with patience. Stone and lime mortar release water slowly, so run an LGR unit and an air mover on the wet wall for longer than you would on plasterboard, and check moisture readings with a thermal camera and meter before you stop.
How long is delivery to Adelaide?
Three to five business days by road from Queensland after same-day dispatch. We can send pallets to Regency Park, Wingfield or Lonsdale depots for fleet buyers.
Do you deliver to the Barossa and regional SA?
Yes. Freight covers the Barossa, Clare, Fleurieu, Riverland, Mount Gambier and Port Lincoln, usually within a day of the Adelaide metro time.
