Pick the main material, how wet it is, and how much of your home was affected to see a rough drying window. A finished basement, old plaster, or hardwood holds moisture longer, so the sooner drying starts, the shorter it takes and the less you lose to mold.
Estimate only, not a quote. Every water loss is different. Most water damage is covered by insurance, and the loss is documented for your carrier. Coverage depends on your policy, so it is worth checking with your own insurer. Call for an exact assessment.

Most homes dry in 3 to 5 days, though hardwood, plaster, and a finished basement below grade can take longer. Colorado's dry air helps surface moisture, but it does little for water trapped in a slab or a wall cavity, which is why crews use commercial dehumidifiers and monitor moisture daily.
Why does a finished basement take so long to dry?
A basement sits below grade against cool, damp soil and holds moisture that gives up slowly. After a flood or a sump-pump failure, that means more days of controlled drying and daily readings before the framing and drywall 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 slab, drywall, or old framing. Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure so mold cannot start, which matters most in a below-grade basement where a damp cavity can grow mold within a day or two.
How do you know when it is dry?
The drying team takes daily moisture readings with meters and only pulls the equipment once the readings confirm the structure has reached a safe, dry target.
