How this estimate works
Drying time depends mostly on the material and how soaked it is. Tile and vinyl plank give up water fastest, drywall and framing take longer, and subfloor over a crawl space, hardwood and concrete dry slowest. Larger areas and the humid weeks of a Carolina summer add time, because the dehumidifiers have more moisture in the air to remove.
The estimate assumes air movers and LGR dehumidifiers running nonstop and readings taken daily. The finish point is a reading, not a date: equipment comes out when wet materials are within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference. See structural drying for how that works.
Each wet day adds to the drying time.
Getting air movers and dehumidifiers running early is the biggest factor you control, and dispatch runs 24/7.
