Pick the main material, how wet it is, and how much of your home was affected to see a rough drying window. A concrete slab, old plaster, or hardwood holds moisture longer, so the sooner drying starts, the shorter it takes and the less you lose to mold.

Most homes dry in 3 to 5 days, though hardwood, plaster, and a saturated concrete slab can take longer. Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers run while crews monitor moisture daily, because water trapped in a slab or a wall cavity dries far slower than the surface.
Why does a concrete slab take so long to dry?
A slab and the ground beneath it hold a lot of moisture and give it up slowly. After a slab leak, that means more days of controlled drying, sometimes with mat systems that pull moisture straight out of the concrete, and daily readings before it hits a safe target.
Can I speed up drying with my own fans?
Household fans move surface air but do not pull moisture from a slab, plaster, or old framing. Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure so mold cannot start, which matters most in a warm, closed-up home where a damp wall cavity can grow mold within a day or two.
How do you know when it is dry?
Crews take daily moisture readings with meters and pull the equipment only once the readings confirm the structure has reached a safe, dry target.
