How this estimate works
Drying time depends mostly on the material and how saturated it is. Tile and sealed concrete give up surface water quickly, drywall and framing take a few days, and dense materials such as plaster, a concrete slab and hardwood take the longest. More rooms and humid weather add time, which is why dehumidifiers, not open windows, control the drying in Compton's marine layer and winter storm weeks.
The estimate assumes professional air movers and LGR dehumidifiers running around the clock. Under the IICRC S500 standard, the finish line is a reading, not a date: materials are dry when they sit within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference material in the same building. See structural drying for how the readings work.
