In St. Louis, drying time after water damage depends heavily on our humidity. That lingering dampness from a leak or flood can take days to weeks if you don't have industrial fans and dehumidifiers running. It's not just about surface drying; moisture seeps into drywall and wood, and without proper airflow, you risk mold spreading fast. Most restoration pros here aim to have things bone-dry within a week, but every situation differs based on the extent of the soak and the season.
