How Long Does Water Damage Take to Dry?

What Affects Drying Time?

The amount of water, material type, humidity, temperature, airflow, assemblies involved and how quickly extraction begins can all change the drying process.

Dry-Looking Is Not Always Dry

Surface appearance alone may not show moisture retained in subflooring, walls or other assemblies.

Why Monitoring Matters

Drying decisions should be based on actual conditions and progress rather than a promised number of hours or days.
