Who We Are
Water Damage Is All We Do. That Focus Is Our Difference.
The Dry Boys of Albany is a locally operated water damage restoration company serving the Capital Region from our 4 E Vatrano Rd headquarters. Unlike general contractors who add restoration as a side service, water damage, mold remediation, and structural drying are the only work we do.
Owner John Snyder and Project Manager Dan Boisclair bring more than 30 years of combined industry experience to every call. Founded in 2021, the company runs on a simple promise — the phone is answered, the crew arrives fast, and the job isn't finished until moisture meters confirm every affected surface is fully dry. That's "No Good-Bye 'till it's Dry," and it's why insurance adjusters, property managers, and homeowners across 11 counties keep the number on the fridge.
How We Work
A Calm, Documented Process
Water damage is chaotic. Our job is to replace chaos with a clear plan, a fast crew, and documentation that makes your insurance claim smooth.
Call & Dispatch
Call 518-788-7261 any hour. A real team member answers, triages the emergency, and dispatches a crew — typically on-site in Albany, Schenectady, Rensselaer, and Saratoga within 60–90 minutes.
Assess & Extract
On arrival we stop the source, map moisture with thermal imaging and meters, extract standing water with truck-mounted equipment, and document every reading for your insurance carrier.
Dry & Sanitize
Commercial dehumidifiers, air movers, and HEPA scrubbers run under IICRC S500 protocols. Daily monitoring. Antimicrobial treatment for any Category 2 or 3 contamination.
Verify & Hand Back
Equipment comes out only when moisture meters hit target content in flooring, drywall, and framing. Final walkthrough, signed completion, full documentation package.
