        "text": "The total turnaround for taping and mudding usually spans two to four days for an average room or remodel. While the physical application of mud takes only a few hours per coat, each layer must dry completely before applying the next or performing light sanding. In the Denver metro area, indoor humidity levels and seasonal heating or ventilation affect drying rates. Basement remodels without active airflow can take longer to cure between coats, whereas spaces with good temperature control allow standard 24-hour drying cycles per layer.",
