It depends on the size of the affected area and how far fluids spread. A small area can be finished in a day, while a larger one or one with odor in the structure takes longer. The team can explain the timeline after hearing the details.
Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can also ask the team to pause while a family member collects something.
