Detailed Document Drying Services for The Colony Homes

Wet books are dried slowly to limit warping of covers and spines, with readings or checks until pages are dry.
Flooded File Restoration
Files are kept in order during drying, with folders labeled so they can go back where they came from.

Documents that cannot be saved are listed, so you know what to request copies of from the issuing office.
