How long do bathroom drying services usually take?

Often several days, depending on how wet the subfloor and wall cavities are. Daily readings show progress.

What is bathroom mold prevention after water removal?

Drying wet materials quickly, fixing ventilation and treating framing that stayed wet with an antimicrobial after drying.

Stopping the source, extracting water from the floor and around fixtures, removing wet drywall or subfloor where needed and drying until readings are normal.
