Yes, air movers and dehumidifiers typically need to run continuously during the drying period for the most effective and fastest results.
Stopping too early can leave residual moisture that leads to mold growth, warping, or odors later on, which is why moisture readings are checked before ending the process.
Yes, moisture can wick up inside wall cavities without obvious surface signs, which is why moisture mapping behind walls is an important step in the process.
Yes, structural drying commonly takes 3-5 days, and sometimes longer for dense materials or larger affected areas, to fully remove moisture and prevent mold.
