This is a planning estimate only, based on typical water losses in Tracy. Every loss is different, and a firm price comes from the restoration company after it sees the damage.

How this estimate works

Drying time depends mostly on the material and how saturated it is. Tile and sealed concrete give up water fastest, drywall and framing take longer, and a bare slab, hardwood or plaster, which the IICRC S500 treats as Class 4 materials, dry slowest. Larger areas and cool, rainy winter weather add time; Tracy's dry summer air helps.

The estimate assumes air movers and LGR dehumidifiers running continuously and daily readings. The real finish line 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 the process works.

24/7 emergency dispatch

Every day wet adds to the drying time.

Getting air movers and dehumidifiers running early is the biggest factor you control.
