How long does water damage take to dry in Pasadena?
Most homes dry in 3 to 5 days, though old plaster and lath, hardwood, and tile over a concrete slab can take longer. Those older Pasadena materials hold moisture, which is why we use commercial dehumidifiers and monitor the readings daily.
Why does tile over a concrete slab take so long to dry?
A concrete 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 and daily moisture readings before the slab and the flooring above it hit a safe target.
Can I speed up drying with my own fans?
Household fans move surface air but do not pull moisture from a subfloor, plaster walls, a concrete slab, or old framing. Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure so mold cannot start, which matters in a plaster-walled bungalow or a slab home.
How do you know when it is dry?
We take daily moisture readings with meters and only remove the equipment once the readings confirm the structure has reached a safe, dry target.
