How long will a damp repair take?

I have Lunar Venus fortunately still under warranty, apparently it has damp in two places on one wall and some damp on the other wall. So both walls are affected a fine showing on a nearly new van.
Campbells have booked it in to be repaired on the 5th Aug how long are they likely to keep it for?

Thanks All

    Won't Campbells tell you?....seems odd although dealers often will not commit to a specific time frame.

    A few days to a few weeks?

    Good Lucksmile

    I have read it takes a week to dry out damp when repairing and so I would have though 2 weeks at Campbells. No doubt they can advise however

    When our Elddis was found to be damp and repaired under warranty it took just over two weeks for the first major resealing of the front and one side at the end of the first year and less than two weeks for the other side two years later. Because our original dealer had gone bust in the first year were able to choose an Elddis accredited specialist repairer.
